A bit like biting into a crunchy red apple right out of the fridge, the wine is whistle-clean, zippy and fresh. Gentle notes of underripe strawberry, tart bramble berries and a twang of rhubarb lead into savoury bitters in the finish. Find out more.

Simple, thirst-quenching rosé made from the same base wine as his La Bulle pet-nat, a direct press of Gamay and Côt. It's a straightforward vinification, similarly completed in steel only and then bottled young. The style is less fruit-forward, more lean and savoury - little red fruits sit below a more prominent saline minerality. With a good chill this is one of those no-brainer pours for those moments when more is more. Find out more.

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.

A tasty, deeply-coloured rosé that Noëlla has made for the first time. Clean and pristine, with a fresh line of acidity that cuts the raspberry and cranberry fruits with a saline finish.
