Natural Red Wine Region|Ardèche | Wayward Wines

Region – Ardèche

Here at Wayward our large selection of natural red wine covers a broad dynamic range; from the most weightless, translucent expressions of the Jura, or juicy, perfumed Gamay from Beaujolais, through to more structured, robust examples from warmer, more Mediterranean climes, you’ll find them all listed here.

Reds to keep you warm in the winter and, yes, reds that you can throw into the ice bucket. From healthy, unique vineyard parcels managed with organic and biodynamic farming, the natural wine approach can yield wildly varying results in the cellar; we deal in classical appellation all the way through to the wild, raw outer limits.

Patricia & Rémi Bonneton
La Tangente 'Potion' 2021

A distinctly Mediterranean-leaning affair with this cuvée, made using Carignan harvested in Luberon. The name Potion came from the wine's tonic quality - it is so easy to drink and bursts with spicy, sun-kissed fruits. A compelling, lip-smacking red. Find out more.

La Tangente 'Expérience' 2021

With time to age, the dusty perfume of the wine has developed into something akin to a savoury Jura Pinot, intense with liquorice, allspice and earthy tones. Find out more.

Le Mazel
Cuvée Briand 2024

A perfectly nourishing, Ardéchoise expression of Grenache that we'd happily drink day after day. 2024 sees an abundance of blackcurrant fruit right upfront, giving way to those typically herb-flecked notes of liquorice root, fennel and clove. Find out more.

Le Mazel
Cuvée Raoul 2024

Vivid ruby Carignan and another delightfully light, luminous vintage, already to drinking superbly in its youth. Fruit is freshly crushed black and red cherry with a herbal lilt of wild fennel garrigue and light balsamic twang, towards a lovely sense of limestone minerals in the finish. Find out more.

La Vrille et le Papillon
La Tribu 2024

Bright, fluid Grenache, with lifted aromatics of dusty redcurrant, capsicum spice and strawberry liquorice. There is something distinctly Gamay-esque at play here; fruit-forward, flora, but with those dusty dry spices and herbal tones that make it so very Ardèche. Find out more.

Le Mazel
Cuvée Larmande 2011

Those who have had the experience know that, whilst humbly priced, Mazel wines age with aplomb. We're happy to offer a small quantity of the above Syrah cuvee with well over a decade under its belt. Here we start to see the youthful fruit fall away into something more chiseled and defined. 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.

Prospérité de l'Entreprise 2022

L'Alezan 'Resilience' 2022

Muscular Northern Rhône-style Syrah from the Bonneton’s prized vineyard, where vines planted as far back as the 1940s cling to steep, south-facing terraces that look down to the river Doux, one of the Rhône’s western tributaries. Find out more.

Petite Nature
Bonne Etoile 2023

A wine of true originality that feels genuinely hard to place - deep, concentrated fruit, with the sort of silky elegance that only patience in the cellar can bring. Aromatics leap from the glass - pastel parma violet and juicy blackcurrant, the white grapes bring a curious element of tinned pineapple fruit and its accompanying lick of acid. Find out more.

La Tangente 'Ostara' 2023

The Grenache and Cinsault bring their particular brand of spice, taking things into a herbal direction in the finish, with pleasing bitters to cut the palate and balance out the abundance of gummy fruit. Find out more.

Monde Nouveau 2024 MAGNUM

Petite Nature
Sorcières 2024

Aromatically it is pure Syrah – briny black olive tapenade, peppery blackcurrant fruit – but on the palate the Viognier reveals itself in the more unexpected sensation of citrus peel, fennel, green olive and brings a silky fluidity. It is the harmony found between these two opposing dynamics in which the wine succeeds. Find out more.

Petite Nature
Tombée du Ciel 2024

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.
