Mikaël Bouges
La Bulle 2023

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.

Thomas Puéchavy
Les Vrilles 2022

Given time to open up, a nuanced meld of gently honeyed crisp green apple, lemon sorbet and matchstick reduction float from the glass. Less high-definition-angular than his longer-lived wines, again there is an appealing softness to the structure, with everything hanging in place with casual poise. Salty minerals underpin, and the acidity cuts neatly, with a faint twang of ginger in the long finish. Find out more.

Mikaël Bouges
Prométhée 2022

Like all of Mikaël's wines from the dry 2022 vintage, there is a chiselled structure and profound minerality, the vines having reached deep down to the limestone bedrock for nutrients.

Domaine Bobinet
PIAK! Blanc 2023

A thirst-quenching blanc de noir of Cabernet Franc. That's right, white wine from red grapes! Invitingly hazy in the glass, with just the slightest peachy hue, this is one that is hard not to glug when the sun is shining down. Find out more.

Mikaël Bouges
Les Couilles d'Anes 2021

A serious wine with a silly name - Couilles d'Anes translates as 'donkey balls', a colloquial term coined by the local vigneron to describe the unusual black stones that can be found dotting the vineyard soils in certain locations. A delightfully aromatic vintage, bright cherry and bramble fruits meld with a violet perfume in the glass. Find out more.

Domaine Bobinet
PIAK! Rosé 2023

This is a dry, fruity rosé with lots going on. Flesh and texture from the Chenin, herbal cherry fruit from the Cab Franc and a lovely bit of fragrant spice from the d'Aunis. Fruitier and slightly wilder than the last vintage but still dry and very refreshing. Very tasty stuff! Find out more.

Noëlla Morantin
Mon Cher 2022

Noëlla Morantin
Marie Ju 2022

Elegant sparkling Chenin Blanc from Touraine, with a lean, linear expression.

Olivier Cousin
Pur Breton 2023

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.
