This cheeky little French rose is a super fruity, medium dry pink wine made in Anjou in the Loire Valley in northern central France; one of that country's most diverse wine regions. 

It's made from two red grapes, Gamay and Grolleau; both well known for their soft, smooth and fruity style. 

This wine is super popular and has fruit sweetness and an off dry finish.

Direct and impressive acid-cherry nose. Nice in the mouth, a little structural too – the flavour a bit disassociated after filtering. The finish is excellent though – wide, long and persistent. This will be super – probably excellent!

Burgundy Report

With scents of peonies, raspberry and kirsch, the Saint-Amour is a refined and voluptuous wine. With a seductive shiny ruby red robe, this elegant and tender wine is very enjoyable. Wine-maker notes.

Jean-François Ganevat—known as Fanfan—is making wine with the inspired magic of an alchemist. He comes from a long line of winegrowers, dating as far back as 1650. He took over the family estate in 1998. With only eight and a half hectares under vine, the family has seventeen different local varieties planted of both red and white grapes—an incredible amount of variation to consider for holdings of such small size. Jean-François creates a stunning number of cuvées, ranging between thirty-five and forty every year! His methodology goes far beyond the details of the average vigneron.

J’en Veux Encore is Pinot Noir and Pinot Gris – Semi Carbonic fermentation, sweet fruited, very energetic – very crisp, light, and very pure.

This is a fabulous little French Chenin Blanc from Vouvray - queen of the Loire Valley appellations (wine areas) devoted to Chenin. Flavours here run the gamut of delicious lemony fruity flavours in an off dry. Florals, citrus and peach on the nose feed into a similar profile on the palate, with further white flowers and honey notes.

Pair with fish and lightly spiced Asian cuisine.

Rolet is regarded as one of the top producers of the Jura region in eastern France, situated between Burgundy and Switzerland. This area is best known for its quirky vin jaune styles of wine, made under a veil of flor yeast. Similar to sherry but with very different flavours.

This wine is made from the region's flagship indigenous grape, Savagnin, which is a very old, genetically important grape variety - DNA profiling shows it to be a parent of Chenin Blanc, Gruner Veltliner, Sauvignon Blanc, Silvarner and Trousseau. The term ouille refers to a gentler process of production with less oxidation and no flor growth during the production of the wine resulting in a fruit forward appley expression of the grape. 

"Les Baronnes" is a wine of exotic fruit and citrus aromas; subtle yet powerful. Its persistence and harmony find their origin in the exposition and quality of the terroir. Delicate nose with aromas of white flesh fruits and citrus, this Sancerre is highlighted by its typicity. - Henri Bourgeois. 

Wild berries and ripe plums combine with complex spicy notes in this super affordable Malbec from the Pays D'Oc in the south of France. Malbec is scarce in the Languedoc region and this wine is made from 30 year old vines, which come from four different vineyards. The vineyards are on the slopes of the Orb Valley for complexity and richness, the foot of Montagne d’Alaric, northern Corbières, lends roundness and complexity and central Corbières for complexity and spice.

Bourgogne Aligoté is a dry wine, with a good acidity and a medium strength. Maturing is mostly done in tanks during 12 months, to promote freshness and ses notes fruitées.
Usually, Bourgogne Aligoté is an early wine but coming from Domaine Pierre MOREY, it can be kept for many years !
