WINEMAKER’S NOTE: Deep colour with the classic bouquet of briar Cabernet and unmistakably Margaret River this wine has a velvety and fine structured palate.

VINTAGE CONDITIONS: The 2018 growing season was characterised by above average winter rains followed by a dry spring free of high winds that led to good flowering and fruit set. Slightly cool and dry conditions prevailed into summer leading to long and consistent ripening. These were ideal conditions for our reds with a fine Indian summer that help develop excellent colours and fine tannin structures in the final wine.

VINEYARDS: Located in north of the Margaret River region our vineyard was planted almost 20 years ago. Low yielding and now mature.

VINIFICATION: Machine picked grapes were fermented in static fermenter and pumped over daily. On dryness, the wine was run to seasoned French oak barrels. It was finally bottled after 16 months in oak and laid down for further maturation until release.

WINEMAKER’S NOTE: Pale straw green in colour with a complex bouquet, nutty and lifted. The palate is fine and deep with a long finish.

VINTAGE CONDITIONS: An excellent vintage for Margaret River Chardonnay.

VINEYARDS: The fruit for this wine was sourced from a single vineyard site – one of our vineyards in the Northern Margaret River wine region. The vineyard was planted over 17 years ago, a mature and low yielding site.

VINIFICATION: Hand-picked grapes were chilled overnight and whole bunch pressed. The juiced was fermented with wild yeast in barrel where it remained for eight months, then carefully clarified and bottled.

WINEMAKER’S NOTE: Deeply coloured, with the classic unmistakable Margaret River bouquet of briar Cabernet with a rich and structured palate.

VINEYARDS: Located in north of the Margaret River region our low yielding vineyard was planted almost 25 years ago to a lyre trellis, obligating hand picking.

VINIFICATION: Hand-picked grapes were fermented in open containers and plunged daily. On dryness the wine was run to new barrels. Racked several times, it was finally bottled after nine months in oak and laid down for further maturation until release.

Rich, robust and bursting with vanilla flavor.

This smooth drinking rum is free of artificial ingredients and truly encapsulates the vibrancy and spirit of French Polynesia.

The harvest is nocturnal, thus preserving to the maximum the aromatic potential and the best organoleptic characteristics of the grape, until its entry into the winery. The fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks, completing in about 15 - 20 days. After resting for 2 to 3 months and after stabilizing, the wine is filtered and then bottled.

Made with grapes from vines grown organically throughout its process, it has followed the regulations of the "Catalan Council of Ecological Agricultural Production“. The biological and organic production is a system whose objective is to obtain food of the highest quality respecting the environment and without using chemical synthesis products. We make a manual selection of the grapes. Once in the cellar, only the untreated must is used, in order to avoid all the astringent imperfections and the green notes that come with pressing. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks at a very low temperature. The second fermentation in the bottle is left at least 12 months in the cellar at a constant temperature of 14 º15 º

Rosé Bubbles in a bottle, what better accompaniment to a warm, sunny afternoon is there? Almost a year ago, we picked some gorgeous Cinsault grapes on a hot summer morning in the Swartland. After a whole-bunch press and some limited skin maceration this rose-tinted beauty set off on its fermentation journey and before we knew it -- this puppy was born. It’s a one man band of fresh strawberry and cherry notes that come together to produce a sweet summer song.

Just like the wine in our bottles, this is a wine filled with vibrancy and luminosity. Packed in 250mL cans to suit your life. Whether it is during a quiet moment in your own home or on the adventure of a lifetime up a mountain, Lubanzi will be with you.

If there was ever a red wine that was born to be packed in a backpack, carried to the top of a distant mountain & savored while gazing over distant landscapes, this would be it. Well made, responsibly crafted & enjoyed anywhere.

A refreshing, sparkling rosé with a bouquet of aromatics and a brilliant pale pink color. Dry, saline minerality, balanced acidity, and a palate that is crisp and tastes of wild cherries & ripe summer strawberries. Packed in 250mL cans for a single serving. Fit as an accomplice for all journeys, however small or large.

A cloudy deep pink colour, this pétillant naturel (or methode ancestrale) wine made from 100% organic cinsault grapes, is a funky marvel.

Volcanic, Traditionally Blended Wine from a Cool Climate wine region, Eger, Hungary. 

The flagship wine of the winery, selection of the best barrels.

Fine, ripe, complex aromas on the nose. Blackcurrant, blackberry and forest berries on the nose complemented by   forest soil and litter. Meaty and full bodied on the palate with the taste of volcanic and chalky minerality. A rounded elegant red wine with long finish.

Harvested from the north-western side of Somló. A barrel selection, a small part of the whole batch, which showed a higher quality already at the end of fermentation. It spent eight months in oak barrels and then underwent a very intense malolactic fermentation. In order to preserve the vibrant liveliness of the wine, it was bottled without filtration and at low sulphur levels.

Winemaker: José Neiva Correia

Country/ Region: Portugal / Lisboa

Terroir: Quinta do Casal da Madeira (Single Estate)

Grapes: Pinot Noir 100%

Vinification Method | Classic fermentation method with destemming and pre fermentative skin contact followed of the application of dry yeasts. Fermentation up to 30º C in the first 2/3, and lowering down to 20º C during the last 1/3. During the whole fermentative process, pumping over 2 times per day, using each time half of the volume contained in the vat. After the alcoholic fermentation, the cap is plunged for 30 days, and during that period, extraction of the gentle tannins is conducted, along with the malolactic fermentation and the natural stabilization of the wine.

Ageing | Wine is aged in French of Allier barrels from Seguin Moreau of 225 Lt for 3 months.

Tasting Notes | Brilliant claret ruby colour, rich fruit aroma with intriguing notes of chocolate, green tea and dates. On the palate it has power and structure but is, at the same time, fruity with ripe blackberry and cedar flavours standing out. A delicious, complex wine with a long, smooth finish, very tasty.

How to Serve | Excellent for social events it's as well as a superb complement to foods such as roasts, game, stews, cheese and Portuguese and Mediterranean gastronomies. We recommend to serve at the temperature of 16-18ºC.

Ciróka single 2018

Dry (75cl)

VITICULTURAL AND OENOLOGICAL INFORMATION:

Name of the vineyard:            Ciróka

Grape variety:                         100% Furmint

Maturation:                             4 months steel tank and 4 months in oak

Bottling date:                         May 2019

WINE CHARACTERISTICS:

Alcohol:           12%

Sugar:              3.3 g / l

Acidity:            5.6 g / l

It was an outstanding vintage. 2018 was particularly warm resulting ripe, complex wines with excellent flavour concentration. The natural acidity of the Furmint grape and the supporting volcanic terroir create the strong acid back bone that made this wine so well balanced.

It is an extremely elegant wine showing ripe-bruised apple, pear and quince notes accompanied with some gentle and well-integrated toasted biscuit and hazel from the Hungarian oak. A touch of flinty and smoky minerality can also be recognised which is one of the benchmarks of the wines coming from the north-eastern part of Tokaj. 

This wine is a great match for slow-roasted pork belly, but it also goes well with grilled poultry and any slowly cooked or baked white meat.

2019 has real potential to be also deemed as an outstanding vintage with wines showing finesse and capability for aging. The growing season was consistent with little in the way of wild temperature swings, heavy rains or drought and the vast majority of the grapes were allowed to reach full phenolic ripeness.

The wine has a particular freshness and concertation of minerality, showing notes of flint, pebbles and lime. Due to the phenolic ripeness this vintage also shows some floralness of wild meadow flowers along with peach and pear.

This wine can work very well with thicker fish such as tuna, turbot, scallops. But it can also go well with Hungarian tarragon-chickens soup “Ragu Leves”.

2017 was an extraordinary vintage for our flagship vineyard which fulfilled all our expectations in this year due to the great terroir of this very special piece of land.

The wine has a complex and ripe character with flavours of peach, apricot, melon, pineapple, white blossom and a touch of honey. The oak manifests delicious vanilla, toast and cloves. Very long finish of fresh hay and honey roasted nuts.

This wine is an excellent match with Hungarian roasted goose liver and can also be a good company for slightly spicy Asian cuisine.

Dry (50cl)

WINE CHARACTERISTICS:

Alcohol:           15 %

Sugar:             3 g / l

Acidity:           6.3 g / l

The vintage of 2015 was an odd one. The winter had been extremely cold and gave way to a dry spring, which made for good budburst and flowering. However, summer came, and it was not only dry but also very hot, which ripened the grapes more quickly than normal. Some September showers went some way to developing the desired botrytis and October brought more rain, however by the time it came to the harvest, there were still fewer successfully botrytized grapes than usual. Most of the botrytis infected clusters were only partially covered with botrytis and it gave the obvious direction for dry szamorodni production.

This is a real Tokaj speciality and also a rarity. The wine went under a specific production method when the wine is kept in old oak barrel under a solid layer of floating yeast “flor”. This wine shows beautiful baked apple, pear and quince notes along with hazel, walnut, ginger, toast and biscuits. It has an extremely long finish. And unlike it is French cousin the famous “Vin Jaune de Jura” this wine typically has higher acidity and shows some integrated floralness.

This wine has a fantastic flavour intensity and outstanding acidity.

2016 was our best vintage in the decade regarding Aszú wines. Small rains occurred mid-September and it ignited the botrytis development and prepared the vineyards for the long and warm autumn. Grapes were able to reach full phenolic ripens before noble rotting became dominant in the vineyards.

The wine has a fantastic intensity and complexity of flavours such as dried apricot, mango, marmalade, ginger, nutmeg and developed notes of butterscotch, caramel, forest floor and mushroom. All these sweet notes are supported with an extraordinary acidity that makes this wine so unique in the world of sweet wines.

This wine is drinking well along with foie gras, blue cheese, and last but not least can give an unparalleled experience with Cuban cigars.

THE STORY De Chanceny is emblematic of our know-how in producing fine, sparkling Loire wines according to the Méthode Traditionnelle, developed since 1957.

TERROIR Our Vouvray "Excellence" cuvée is made from grapes grown in vineyards located on a limestone plateau, overlooking the Loire River.

AGEING The bottles are stored horizontally on wooden laths in our tufa cellars for a minimum of 24 months before disgorging, to develop an incomparably fine bead.

SERVING Enjoy chilled (8-10°C).

TASTING NOTES Light gold colour with fine and elegant bubbles.  The nose opens with notes of dried fruit, hazelnut and then candied lemon. A light toasted and grilled touch coats the whole.

FOOD PAIRING To be enjoyed chilled (8-10°C) from aperitif to dessert, accompanied by a sea bream and its lemon sauce or a caramelised apple tart.

SITUATION The Lieu-dit is a group of small parcels of unique vines.  Because of its territorial, cadastral and historical unity, it constitutes a unique terroir...  The alchemy between its soil, its relief, its orientation, its climate and its grape variety, gives birth to Protected Designation of Origin wines of exceptional typicity and style. The respect of the terroir combined with the know-how of passionate winegrowers allows the best wines to be extracted.

THE STORY 

In the 4th century, the birth of the vineyard is linked to the foundation of the monastery of Marmoutier by Saint Martin in 372. In the 14th century, some of the Vouvray vintages belonged to the French crown and featured prominently at the king's table.

The Chenin blanc grape variety, also known as Pineau de la Loire, originates from the Loire Valley and was called "plant d'Anjou" around the 10th century. It was Rabelais who popularised its current name in the 16th century.

History: A legacy of the past, the "Fosses d'Hareng" locality has its own history which is forever attached to it. The origin of the locality comes from a joke made by vineyard workers. When it was very cold, in this small valley with gentle slopes, the rows of frozen vines, stripped of their leaves, reminded them of the skeleton of a "pesquid". Remembering that in the Middle Ages, in their region, during Lent, people ate herring, the only fish allowed because it was not fatty, they named this place: "Les Fosses d'Hareng".

LOCATION The Lieu-dit "Les Fosses d'Hareng" is located in Vouvray, a commune in the Loire Valley which is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

TERROIR The plots are situated in the hollow of a valley and face east-west. On the edge of the valleys, the climate is temperate and the soil warms up quickly under the oceanic influence that penetrates to the heart of the vineyard. The perruche soil is rich in siliceous elements (pebbles) on the surface and in the soil. It has a sandy-clay texture on a limestone parent rock. This combination brings fruitiness and roundness to the wine. Total surface area of the plots: 6.3 ha

IN THE VINEYARD La récolte débute après contrôle de maturité et de l’état sanitaire des raisins début octobre.Utilisation de méthodes prophylactiques (ébourgeonnage, effeuillage) afin de favoriser l’aération naturelle des souches et de réguler la charge ; puis, de culture raisonnée afin de permettre une lutte la plus naturelle contre les maladies cryptogamiques.

VINIFICATION 

- Pneumatic pressing with separation of the first drained juice.  - Cold settling for 24 hours. - Vinification at low temperature to favour the finesse of the aromas.  - The alcoholic fermentation is stopped by cold mutage to preserve residual sugars. 

AGEING Racking and maturing on fine lees for about 6 months before bottling.

SERVING Serve between 10-12°C.

TASTING NOTES Straw yellow colour. This semi-dry wine has an intense and complex nose, combining lime blossom, citrus fruits (grapefruit, lemon) and ripe fruits (pineapple).  Lively attack. Voluminous, rich mouth, marked by notes of candied fruits. The slightly acidic finish reinforces the impression of freshness.

FOOD PAIRING This semi-dry wine goes very well with aperitifs, local charcuterie, roast poultry or poultry in sauce such as duck with peaches, blue-veined cheeses and goat's cheeses, sour tarts (apricot, lemon).

THE STORY This 100% Chenin Blanc grape variety is also called Pineau de la Loire. It originates from the Loire Valley, and was called "Plant d'Anjou" around the 10th century. It was Rabelais who popularised its current name in the 16th century. A legacy of the past, the place called "Les Pouches" has its own history which is forever attached to it.

Near the hamlet of Méron, on the banks of the Thouet, the plots of Les Pouches have been growing since the Middle Ages not far from the walls of Montreuil-Bellay. A fortified town, topped by a castle, Montreuil-Bellay is still the last walled town in Anjou. The Lieu-Dit "Les Pouches" is closely linked to the history of the town and its castle. Indeed, its rock was exploited for the construction of the castle and its vineyard, for centuries, provided the peasants of the town with work to feed themselves and offered the richest a succulent beverage. Its wine, with its timeless reputation, is a testimony to the past and an heir to this exceptional terroir.

LOCATION The hamlet "Les Pouches" is located in the commune of Montreuil-Bellay at the gateway to Anjou, Touraine and Poitou, a place of convergence, where tile and slate, wheat land and the vineyards of the Saumur region meet.

TERROIR The "Pouches" terroir is composed of a shallow soil of clayey-silty sands. In places, from the slopes of the Méron to the Loudunais fault, various limestone rocks come to light. These are very hard limestones, such as the lumpy white limestone of the Bathonian containing banks of blue-sky flint, which are used for stonework in camber. These elements allow for good soil drainage and a good potential for earliness. The plots of this hamlet are on a gentle slope, on an open landscape with a north-west/south-east exposure. Near to the Loire, on the plain, the climate is temperate oceanic. Total surface area of the plots: 8 ha

VINIFICATION The harvest begins after checking the ripeness and health of the grapes. - Destemming and pneumatic pressing. - Cold settling for 24 hours.  - Vinification at low temperature (17 to 19°C).

AGEING 

- Racking and maturing on fine lees for 3 to 4 months.  - Bottling, then storage in our cellars at a depth of 25 m.  - Isolated in a gallery, the wine continues its maturation protected from light and temperature variations.

SERVING Serving temperature: 10-12°C.

TASTING NOTES Pale gold colour with green highlights. Open, intense and expressive nose, with aromas of white fruit and citrus (grapefruit), enhanced by a floral note (lime). Round attack, lively point. Delicious mouthfeel with white fruits (vine peach). Aromatic persistence. Smooth finish, with a good freshness.

FOOD PAIRING This wine is a good accompaniment to fish in cream sauce, but also to Asian cuisine, fresh goat's cheese or our special recipe: roast duck with peaches. It is also an ideal aperitif wine.

The Lieu-dit is a group of small parcels of unique vines.  Because of its territorial, cadastral and historical unity, it constitutes a unique terroir...  The alchemy between its soil, its relief, its orientation, its climate and its grape variety, gives birth to Protected Designation of Origin wines of exceptional typicity and style. The respect of the terroir combined with the know-how of passionate winegrowers allows the best wines to be extracted.

THE STORY A legacy of the past, the place known as "La Mouraude" has its own history which is forever attached to it. La Mouraude is situated to the north of Montreuil-Bellay, near the mills, on the site of the old village of Saint Hilaire le Doyen. We do not know the exact date of the destruction of the old village, but it was in 1841 that it became part of Montreuil Bellay. We still have an anecdote from the wine-growing past of this village, which is only witnessed today by the grape wells and the dug out cellars. "It is said that every year at Pentecost, following disputes with the lord, one of the winegrowers of the Priory was taken for a ride on a donkey and thrown into the pond. In compensation, he was to be treated to a ghoul of the monks' best wine."

LOCATION The Lieu-dit "La Mouraude" is located to the north of Montreuil-Bellay, near the old mills.

TERROIR The plots of this Lieu-dit extend on a gentle south-facing slope facing Montreuil-Bellay. Developed on ancient alluvial deposits (rolled pebbles, quartz, flint, etc.) or heavy clay, this brown silty soil with little leaching heats up quickly and contributes to a good precocity. This Lieu-dit is regularly harvested first. The climate is temperate oceanic, but the hills of the Saumurois slow down the western winds and the plots farthest from the Loire, like those of "La Mouraude", are subject to a semi-continental influence. Total surface area of the plots: 9.5 ha

IN THE VINEYARD Use of prophylactic methods (disbudding, leaf removal) in order to favour the natural aeration of the stocks and to regulate the load; then, of reasoned cultivation in order to allow the most natural fight against cryptogamic diseases.

VINIFICATION The harvest begins after checking the ripeness and health of the grapes at the beginning of October. - Total de-stemming of the harvest. - Fermentation in stainless steel vats thermo-regulated at 28°C.  - Light daily pumping over during the first third of the alcoholic fermentation, as well as a short maceration to extract the full potential of the grapes.  - Malolactic fermentation in our cellars at a depth of 25 m.

AGEING Isolated in one of the galleries, the wine continues its maturation in a quiet environment, protected from light and temperature variations for 6 to 10 months before bottling.

SERVING Serve between 12-14°C.

TASTING NOTES Ruby colour with good intensity. Open, greedy nose, combining notes of fresh red fruit (redcurrant, raspberry) and black fruit (blackcurrant, blackberry). A touch of spice.  Supple attack. Fruity and well-balanced on the palate, with good volume and silky tannins. Fresh finish with a nice impression of sweetness.

FOOD PAIRING This wine will be particularly appreciated with red meat. Its substance and pepper notes also make it a good match for dishes in sauce, coq au vin or bourguignon, or estouffade à la provençale.
