Natural Wine For Spring

Grape – Syrah

Now that Summer is upon us, despite what feels like endless rain, we thought it time to put together a selection of natural wines fit for the Season. Light, bright, fresh, aromatic, heady and sensual: these are the bottles we reach for at this time of year.

Patricia & Rémi Bonneton
La Tangente 'Metisse' 2023

The darker juice from the Syrah pulling more towards a rosé in appearance, but with a peachy sunset tint from the macerated Viognier, it remains a hard wine to categorise, but also begs the question, what does that matter? Worked in this way the Syrah gives some gummy red fruits to frame the herbal, anise character of the Viognier, which is extracted to leave a wonderfully fine-grained, delicate tannic profile.

Celler Tuets
Tot Rosat 2022

Our new favourite park wine - it's hard to think of a more immediately satisfying, tasty wine to drink sat on some grass in the sun. Also a great introduction to this producer as it blends together all their grapes from all their plots, snapshot style. Fruity, herbaceous, spicy and vegetal - just delicious. Find out more.

Val de Combrès
L'Ivresse 2022

Deep, lip-smacking blackcurrant and peppery spice rules from the thicker-skinned grapes, with the Cab Franc contributing some plush sheen and herbal fragrance. Showing a bit more structure than previous vintages, this hits somewhere between the breeziness of Les Vacances and the heft of Les Quilles de Joie. Find out more.
