ABRACADABRA…
New additions to our online shelves, bottles from the dynamic and ever-changing négoce project of Hannah Fuellenkemper. A project that shows a real labour of love, those who follow Hannah’s candid blog will know all about it!
Based in the Auvergne, Hannah buys grapes from friends (and friends of friends) in France and beyond. Each year the vinification is guided by the fruit and Hannah’s intuition, the approach is always lo-fi and flexible, allowing the fruit to pave the way. Everything is done by hand, from pressing to even hand-painting many of the bottles. It’s been an exciting journey to follow, outlining the highs and lows of making wine. We can’t wait to watch the project evolve.
We have just added two cuvées, both available in tiny quanitites…
ALAKAZAM 2021, a direct-press Chardonnay aged for two years in barrel. Named ‘Alakazam’ to reflect the magical transformation that takes place over the two years aging. Beautifully rich yet dangerously drinkable
HOT GIRLS 3 2023, a juicy, energetic red/white blend of Grenache noir, Cinsault, Sauvignon Blanc & Colombard – sourced from growers all over France. A tropical, red-cherry fruit bomb. Lifted and luminous.
Hit the links above to read more and place and order. You’ll also find these bottles on the shelves of our physical shop in Chapel Allerton. While stocks last!
