The grapes with their natural high acidity and excellent concentration of aromas are vinified in stainless steel tanks with selected yeasts. The wine undergoes a short passage in new and old acacia and Caucasian oak barrels with capacities of 500, 400 and 225lt for no more than two months. Spicy notes, cedar and tons of wild herbs and field flowers meet...
Precision winemaking, with a percentage of the grapes coming from the famous unripe bells that are usually left back in the vineyard because they are not ripe enough. But here they are vinified separately in 400lt perle barrels that don't let the dioxide escape. There they will remain in the absence of oxygen in anaerobic conditions for three months. The...
It's hard not to be captivated by Lakomata, a great expression of the dynamism and greatness of the Kefalonian Robola. The aromas of the wine do not stop evolving in the glass, the ripeness plays with the freshness of the acidity, the character in the mouth is complex and the wine clearly gives you a sense of fullness. This is one of the most divine wines...
Located on the plateau of Gouye, from which it actually borrows its name, Domaine de Gouye shows an absolutely timeless feel and tranquillity. Mistral passing through the vineyards and Ramses, the estate horse ploughs the vines are the most vibrant movements in between. Along with the stumps of Syrah planted since the 50s, there are also a few plantings...
Outside of Saint-Joseph appellation of origin, although in similar soils, and in a cooler mesoclimate due to altitude and orientation, Domaine de Gouye's Gabouillon Syrah is lighter in alcohol and structure, but bursting with flavour. Peppery elements, fresh fruit, acidity and freshness that one can only find in this part of France when it comes to Syrah....
Absolutely natural vinification without interventions. The wine is extracted with the skins for ten days and the fermentation is spontaneous. The vinification and maturation of the wine takes place in stainless steel tanks in contact with the wine sludge for about 6 months. So full of freshness and intense varietal character is circulating in the market....
Silky, with aromas of dried rose and violet, layered aromatic complexity with extra spice, red fruit and traces of leather. The year gave the wine a fine balance of alcohol and acidity with mild - for the variety - tannins. Combined with plenty of fruit on the palate, they help it to be enjoyable and expressive without requiring long cellar ageing. Its...
Black cherry aromas, licorice and violet intertwined with finesse, paint a sensation of freshness and energy on a canvas of refined silky beautifully structured tannins. 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...
The harvest for the three varieties is simultaneous with Mavrodaphne at high maturity but Araklino and Korfiatiko at an earlier stage, providing the blend with serious vitality and excellent acidity. A wonderfully balanced wine with moderate volume and elegant tannins with texture that gives a sense of fullness in the mouth without a trace of astringency....
Patchwork comes from five different vines with the oldest of them planted in 1962. Fermentation is spontaneous and maturation takes place in 228lt French barrels, 10% of which are new. Burgundian style, closer to the nerve of a Puligny-Montrachet, with expressive fruit around a core of tobacco, yeast and minerality. Medium-bodied, elegant and lacy on the...
