Located in the heart of the Chablis region, Maison Pascal Bouchard offers a full range of wines from Chablis and the Grand Auxerrois region, spreading over 40 hectares. Pascal Bouchard is one of the leading negociants, working closely with small quality groomed growers. The impressive modern cuverie is perfectly suited to the highest quality requirement with crop handled by gravity, possibility to vinify micro-cuvées separately thanks to a park of various tank sizes, and an underground thermo-regulated wine cellar to allow the wines to age perfectly. All the bottling and shipping is done on site. In 2015 Maison Pascal Bouchard got purchased by Burgundy Maison Albert Bichot, also proprietor of Chablis Château Long-Depaquit. The two entities share their respective knowledge, even though they are run and managed separately.
Chardonnay grown on portlandian limestone in the Chablis region. Aged 12 months in stainless steel tanks and used oak barrels (20%)
Delicate nose of white fruit and dry stone. Refreshing and lively with hints of flint, vanilla and wax. Chalk, lemon and apple are featured in the tense mouth. This is a quaffing wine!

The estate dates back to 1789 (French Revolution) and has been owned by the Perroud Family since. Today, Robert, 7th generation, manages the organically farmed domaine and beautifully crafts terroir driven gamay wines: he is considered as one of the best of the Appellation.
A selection of the oldest gamay vines from the south-exposed ‘‘Les Balloquets’’ site comes into this Cuvée. The soils are composed of schist and pink granite with the presence of amethysts. Hand harvested. Semi-carbonic maceration in concrete vats. Indigineous yeasts. Aged 12 months in used Auxey-Duresses wine barrels.
From a selection of the estate's best fruit, this wine is richly structured, firmly textured and likely to age well in the medium term. The black fruits are still young, giving a brightness to the wine that perhaps should be allowed to calm down. Drink this ripe wine from late 2018.

Blend of 60% chardonnay and 40% pinot noir from the Champagne region’s best terroirs, aged at least 3 years sur latte. 40% of reserve wines have been added to the Cuvée. While most Champagnes are typically made with 20 to 25 percent of Grand Cru village, Barons de Rothschild Brut is made with 82 percent of the fruit coming from Grand Cru villages. Low dosage (5g/l) and kept at least 6 months after the disgorgement process.

Philippe Colin established his domaine in 2004; he had previously worked alongside his father and brother at the family domaine, Michel Colin-Deleger. (His brother, Bruno, founded his own domaine around the same time.) Domaine Philippe Colin’s holdings stretch approximately 30 acres with vineyards mainly in the Chassagne-Montrachet area but also in Santenay, Puligny- Montrachet and Saint-Aubin. He covers 24 appellations in total through his selections, which are classified as Bourgogne, Village, Premier Cru and Grand Cru. Philippe upholds the philosophy of respecting the vineyards, intervening as little as possible to allow the purest expression of terroir to shine through, as each plot is markedly different. Philippe Colin recently purchased Topiary Estate in Franschhoek, South Africa.
100% chardonnay. Les Chaumées vineyard is situated at the edge of Chassagne-Montrachet, in the alluvial fan of the Combe de Saint-Aubin. It is the highest positioned vineyard directly above the premier cru sites of Les Vergers and Les Chenevottes. Philippe’s parcel is on the lower section of the slope, it is a stony vineyards which receive northeast exposure. The shallow soils have a higher limestone content than clay, imparting a bracing minerality. A large section of the vineyard is planted with 50 years old vines and surrounded by a dry wall (clos). Handpicked. Barrel fermented (25% new, combination of 228L, 450L and 500L). Aged 14 months in barrels with periodic batonnage.
A smooth, creamy texture sets the pace for peach, honey, pastry and toasty oak aromas and flavors, all underscored by lemon oil notes, citronella intensity and vivid acidity that carries the polyphonic finish. Alluring and harmonious.

100% chardonnay. Les Chenevottes 65 year old vineyard is located in the middle of the alluvial fan of the Combe de Saint Aubin, beneath Les Vergers and a step away from the Montrachet Grand Cru. Chenève refers to hemp in old French; which means that the rich calcareous clay soils the vines are rooted in are deeper and easier to plough. Handpicked. The alcoholic fermentation starts in stainless steel tanks with indigenous yeasts. Half way through the fermentation, the juice is sent to barrels for malolactic (25% new, combination of 228L, 450L and 500L). Aged 14 months with periodic batonnage.
Intensely flavored and a bit sweeter than the Vergers but with its acidity not yet in full harmony with its impression of sucrosité. Finishes with a distinctly rocky, phenolic finish that will require some bottle aging.

100% chardonnay. Village blend of 15 plots spread over the appellation from Santenay to Puligny Montrachet village borders. Limestone and calcareous clay soils. Vines range in age from 35-40 years old. Aged in barrel (25% new) for 11 months, with periodic lees stirring and then racked to tank where it was blended and rested for an additional few months before a light filtration, final blending and bottling.
Pretty bouquet with scents of orange zest and citrus lemon, the oak nicely integrated. The palate is well defined with a light, saline entry, plenty of lime flavors and a simple but crisp finish.



Burgundy meets the Rhone! When Mounir Saouma and his wife Rotem Brakin (owners of highly sought-after Burgundy micro-negociant Lucien Le Moine) had an opportunity in 2009 to purchase a neglected vineyard in the Pignan area, they did not hesitate! The Clos Saouma winery is based near Orange, in the Vaucluse, just north of Châteauneuf-du-Pape. Today they farm a total of 21 acres across 8 vineyards in all 5 villages of the appellation (Chateauneuf-du-Pape, Bedarrides, Sorgues, Courthezon and Orange) including that cherished piece of Pignan site (nieghbor of Château Rayas). In almost every respect, the Saoumas are vinifying their southern Rhône wines in the same manner as their Burgundy wines: they employ ‘whole-cluster’ fermentation; no punch down, no racking and subject the wines to exceptionally long cellar aging (24 to 36 month élévage) in a cold underground cellar; and minimize their use of sulfur by trapping trace Co2 left over from fermentation.
100% old Grenache from the Pignan vineyards (neighbor of Château Rayas). The fruit is pressed firmly with small presses dating from the late 1970s, left in tank to macerate at relatively cool temperatures for 11 days, and then transferred to 228 and 500 l barrels for the next three years. The wine is never punched down, never racked, and only receive minimal sulfur after 18 months, and not filtered before bottling.
Glistening ruby-red. Extremely sexy, spice-accented aromas of ripe red berries, incense and potpourri, along with a potent, smoky mineral element that adds vivacious lift. Offers sweet, palate-staining raspberry, cherry pastry, spicecake and floral pastille flavors that show remarkable definition and back-end thrust. Displays a compelling blend of richness and energy and finishes with outstanding clarity and almost undetectable, silky tannins that sneak in slowly.

80% Grenache, 10% Syrah, 10% Mourvèdre. Mounir Saouma likes to describe Chateauneuf-du-Pape as a mosaic, with all the wild traditions and differences together making for very different interpretations. Omnia, Latin for “all,” is his attempt to encompass the entire region’s terroir and winemaking history in one glass. The fruit comes from across all 5 of the Chateauneuf communes, and the wine is vinified in a variety of vessels. The fruit is pressed firmly with small presses dating from the late 1970s, left in tank to macerate at relatively cool temperatures for 8 days, and then transferred to a combination of barrels, foudres, cement, and even eggs are used, all except the last of which can be considered “traditional” within the diversity of Chateauneuf’s viticultural history. The wines are never punched down, never racked, and only receive minimal sulfur after 18 months, and not filtered before bottling.
''Sublime, with a beguiling mouthfeel to the layers of cherry puree, steeped plum and warmed raspberry coulis fruit flavors, melded with rooibos tea, bergamot, incense and jasmine notes. The long finish features subtle minerality and remarkable persistence, seeming to move with grace. Grenache, Syrah and Mourvèdre. Best from 2021 through 2045.''

60% old vine grenache, 40% syrah. Blend of vineyards located in the Gard region. The old vines are rooted in a sandy terroir mixed with round pebbles. Aged 12 months in concrete tank. No fining, no filtration.
Rich and herbal – one whiff and I’m back down in the southern Rhône! Sweet start and already almost drinkable in terms of fruit ripeness and weight, even if there is quite a framework of tannin. Something serious and medicinal. Long and persistent finish.

Picamelot is an iconic and historic sparkling wine house in Burgundy as they were among the first producers to release a ‘Bourgogne Mousseux’ back in the 30’s. Only vintage Crémants are crafted from the various terroirs thus captivating the essence of the region. Philippe Chautard, grandson of the founder, is now in charge of the production and oversees the 22 ha organically farmed property as well as thirty quality groomed partner-growers. Total production is about 200,000 bottles of which only 25% are exported. Picamelot, being entirely dedicated to the production of the finest Crémants, is currently working on replanting historical vineyards around the administrative capital of Burgundy, Dijon. These sites were once owned by the fame Dukes of Burgundy and totally disappeared after the phylloxera disaster. The first Cuvées should be released in 2023.
40% chardonnay (from Côte de Beaune), 40% Pinot Noir (Côte de Nuits), 20% Aligoté (Côte Châlonnaise). Hand harvested in small crates. Vinified separately, then blended for the ‘‘prise de mousse’’ and aged on lees for 12 months. RS: 7g/l
Elements of limestone and seashell surround notes of baked lemons and pears that open to stone-fruit compote, cloves, heather and toffee; it’s surprisingly dense and viscous on the palate, gathering an array of mineral-tinged textural elements and glimpses of yellow fruit that neatly balance bright acidity with a slightly creamy nature

Blend of 60% chardonnay and 40% pinot noir from the Champagne region’s best terroirs, aged at least 3 years sur latte. 40% of reserve wines have been added to the Cuvée.

Berlucchi is an iconic house and pioneer in Italy: it was the first winery to release a metodo classico Franciacorta in the 60’s. Berlucchi is also the most powerful premium sparkling wine brand in Italy. The name Franciacorta comes from the terms Francae Curtes, name given during the feudal period to the communities of French Benedictine monks who settled in the region to cultivate the vine. These communities were exempted from the princely taxes in exchange for their services. Francae Curtes (franc de taxe in French) therefore means free of taxes. It then evolved through time to the Italian version Franciacorta.
90% chardonnay and 10% pinot noir. Selection of old vines. Varietals vinified separately. The assemblage of the cuvée is decided in the spring following harvest. Matured for a minimum of 24 months on lies followed by an additional 2 months after disgorgement.
A blend of 90% Chardonnay and 10% Pinot Noir, this refined sparkler opens with heady aromas of white wild flower, citrus and a whiff of bread crust. On the lively palate, fresh acidity brightens creamy white peach, Golden Delicious apple and lemon drop. A brioche note wraps up the finish.

Château Puyanché has been in the Arbo family for five generations, since the early 20th century. The estate consists of 38 hectares of old vines that are farmed with an organic approach. Today the estate is spread over 51 hectares divided up into two appellations: Francs Côtes de Bordeaux and (38 hectares in red and 3 in white) and Castillon Côtes de Bordeaux (10 hectare in red). The use of chemical has drastically been reduced. The biodiversity has been enhanced by keeping hedgerows and rotating fallow areas. Adding up to the organic approach, the meticulous vineyard work is ensured to produce healthy grapes. As for winemaking, all the whites (75% sauvignon blanc, 25% semillon) are barrel fermented (30% new) on their lees, with periodic stirring. All the reds (80% merlot, 20% cabernet sauvignon) are vinified in stainless tanks and then aged in either tanks or barrels depending the appellation.
Francs is the smallest of the Bordeaux Côtes appellations including just less than 500 hectares of vines with around 50 different producers. It lies east of St. Emilion between the appellations of the Côtes de Castillon and Puisseguin St. Emilion. The region takes its name after the first King of the Franks victory over the Visigoths. Mainly made up of clay and limestone soils in rolling hillsides, Francs makes mainly red wines from Merlot grapes with a small amount of highly sought after whites.
Baked-apple and wood aromas show strongly in this ripe wine. Rich texture. Balancing the toastiness, the ripe fruits are complex, peach and apple flavors going along with the spice.
