Grape – Gamay

Elisa Guerin
Chiroubles 2022

An impressive example of this elevated cru. The texture of the wine is beautifully soft and silky, with integrated, lightly gripping tannic structure. An elegant Beaujolais that bears the complexity of its old-vine origin. Find out more.

Patricia & Rémi Bonneton
La Tangente 'Expérience' 2021

Petite Nature
Tombée du Ciel 2023 MAGNUM

Magnum! One of Paulette’s domaine wines, from a small parcel of 50 year-old Gamay, planted over sandy decomposed granite and quartz at around 500 meters in the hills outside Annonay. This is in many ways her signature cuvée, and offers a beautiful expression of the extreme north of the Ardèche. Find out more.

Elisa Guerin
Moulin-à-Vent 'Les Thorins' 2023

The darker, more brooding and structured side of Elisa's two Moulin-à-Vent cuvées; this is the only of her wines that sees any time in barrel. Robust and ageworthy, with an iron-rich mineral streak imparted by the gorrha soils that define this single 1.5-hectare plot. Find out more.

Elisa Guerin
Moulin-à-Vent 'La Vigne de Mon Pere' 2023

The aromas here are wine open, mixing stony graphite and dark fruits with a pretty lift of perfume. With Moulin-à-Vent generally providing more body and substance, here an impressive balance of muscularity and elegance is on display, with a fine, granular feel to the powdery tannins.

Noëlla Morantin
Mon Cher 2022

A crush of dark fruit, bright acidity and iron-like streak, softened with some creamy, lactic notes then deliciously smooth on the way down. Savoury charcoal bitters tail in the finish - a great vintage that sheds the carbo style of last year. Find out more.

Elisa Guerin
Moulin-à-Vent 'Champ de Cour' 2023

Here we see a hyper-specific expression of terroir, this parcel singled out to make its own unique wine owing to its sandy decomposed granite soils having a high content of the manganese minerals - something closely associated with fine structure and ageability of wines from this cru Find out more.
