Style – No Added Sulphur

Olivier Cousin
Pur Breton 2024

Pur Breton is in many ways Olivier's emblematic cuvée. Its name, an indirect way of stating '100% Cabernet Franc' where it is not permitted to be said, a source of consternation for the Anjou appellation and exemplar of the spirit of its maker. Find out more.

Patricia & Rémi Bonneton
La Tangente 'Petit Prince' 2023

Aromatics balance brighter, higher tones of red fruits with savoury mushroom in a way that hints at something Burgundian. Texturally, the wine is slick, plush and elegant, giving the dusty cherry fruits and unexpected citrus peels an lovely soft edge. Find out more.

Olivier Cousin
Enfin du Vin 2024

La Vrille et le Papillon
1921 NV

With a gentle flash of tawny to the edge of the rim, here we have a fine balance of development and freshness. Deep, concentrated red and black fruits meld with rustic tannin, cracked pepper spice and those trademark herbal notes: fennel, burdock root and coltsfoot rock can be picked out amongst the leather, rolling tobacco and richer barrel notes.
