The harvest for Auksinis maceration is done on the same day as Auksinis in a percentage of advanced infestation of grapes by botrytis. The extraction of the whole bunches takes about a week and the alcoholic fermentation takes place slowly and for about three months. The wine will mature with fine wine lees first for two years in stainless steel tanks and...
It's not just this historic piece of land across the river from Savennieres, a stunning - yet unexplored - terroir for dry wines, that Vanessa uses as the basis for some of the most delicious wines of the extremely fashionable Loire variety. She continues to nurture this great 50+ year old vineyard that sits on shale and sandstone soils with biodynamic...
Manual harvesting with multiple passes through the vineyard to collect the botrytised grapes and then slow fermentation with the native yeasts. The wine is matured for at least a year in oak barrels. Its sweetness is measured and is superbly balanced by the high acidity of the wine. So despite the concentration and sweetness, this balance of acidity adds...
Cuvee from four different vineyards, spontaneous fermentation, small percentage of whole bunch fermentation and 16 months in oak barrels. Mouth full of red fresh fruit, spicy elements and silky texture on the palate with an elegant touch of acidity. Unpretentious, easy to drink, with a purely pleasurable dimension. Antonin is the name of his young son.
A wine for purists, austere, with mild notes of red cherries and dried plum that are enhanced by aromas of spicy spices, lead zest and an ethereal herbal dimension reminiscent of eucalyptus and mint. The palate welcomes you with the warmth of the alcohol and the firmness of the tannins, but refreshed by the acidity and balanced next to the dense fruit. It...

And don’t forget to add to that mix the superb stony minerality associated to the Morgon terroir. It is hard to resist the bright fruit of this wonderful Beaujolais at its youth but give...
Old Roots comes from a single-vineyard Xinomavro vineyard in Goumenissa and due to its single-vineyard character, it cannot bear the appellation of origin on the label since legislation requires at least 20% Negoska in the blend. Biodynamic farming as well as the age of the vineyards helps to harvest Xinomavro earlier and at better maturity levels. The...
Monemvasia, after the harvest at the end of August from organic autochthonous vineyards in various parts of the island up to 500m altitude, will follow a gentle natural vinification, where the wine will be vinified in stainless steel tanks with native yeasts. The wine will remain in contact with the lees for 8 months before being bottled with only a small...
A Barolo with lovely glossy fruit, delicate floral notes reminiscent of rose blossoms and violets and a subtle minerality. The palate is well-rounded, with beautifully digested barrel and a freshness that pleasantly surprises. The fine, almost silky, tannins have excellent depth and length at the same time, leading to a persistent finish with a spicy,...
