Region – Southern Rhône

Val de Combrès
Bichette 2023

An even split of Carignan, Grenache and Cabernet Sauvignon. The latter feels high in the mix in the aromas, giving lovely deeps fruits, cinnamon spice and coffee grounds. The super-supple mouthfeel leads into a grippy, dry finish, seasoned with wild herbs. So typically Val in its vibrant fruit character, further impressing with its sleek, silky texture.

La Grange Du Nord
Bords de Scene 2021

Stunning blend of mainly Grenache with 10% Syrah. From the off, the colour in the glass pulls you in - a brick-tinged sunset ruby, crystalline and inviting. Perhaps the ultimate display of Fred's lightness of touch, the wine blends a lifted, complex perfume, with a confounding depth of structure that belies its appearance. Find out more.

La Grange Du Nord
Cercle 2022

La Grange Du Nord
D’Équerre 2021

Fred's entry-point cuvée, blending a roughly even split of almost every grape grown in the domaine, red and white, brought together in a direct-press. The resulting wine is a striking translucent ruby, sitting in that pale red, deep rosé intersection - be sure to drink this one chilled. Find out more.

La Grange Du Nord
Gare du Nord 2021

A wine that starts to move into the more structured, gastronomic realms, Gare du Nord once again uses the infusion technique but with a little more extraction, giving intensity and tannins that edge to the foreground. Blending a majority of Grenache with Cinsault and Syrah, there is more darkness and grip, spicy black fruits with aromas of cinnamon and capsicum. Feeling the influence of the stems a little more, the body balances trademark fluidity with structural punch. 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.

Val de Combrès
La Lumiere 2022

Sumptuous black cherry fruit and spice jostle together with grippy, dialled-back tannins. A playful, well-rounded bouncing ball of a wine with bags of charm. Reflecting the vintage it shows some real heat this time, but Val has kept the balance perfectly and it is as easy-drinking as ever. Find out more.

Patricia & Rémi Bonneton
La Tangente 'Ho'oponopono' 2022

A maceration of Viognier, Marsanne & Roussanne grown over limestone, acquired from the Gard in the south. A powerfully structured wine, balancing a relatively low gravity with bold, mouth-coating tannins. A hazy, sandy gold in the glass, there is an abundance of intense apricot fruits with a peach iced tea-like quality that lends real dryness to the palate as it tails into a long, herbal finish.

Patricia & Rémi Bonneton
La Tangente 'Ostara' 2022

A plush, glossy wine with bright aromas of cherry and raspberry, both fresh and confected, over a compact body of these gateaux-like fruits, with a subtle framboise-esque almond note hovering just out of shot. A judicious balance of grip and crunch to the finish keeps things feeling clear-cut and pure, working its magic most effectively when served with a brisk chill. Find out more.

Val de Combrès
Les Champs Magnetiques 2022

A 15-day maceration of Roussanne blended with a direct-press of Vermentino and Grenache Blanc. In a lightly oxidative style, the wine was assembled into 600 litre demi-muid barrels for 6 months with no topping up. An intriguing blend of fresh, fleshy stone fruits, sitting alongside the saline complexity of the oxidation. Find out more.

Val de Combrès
Les Vacances 2022

Val's lightest, juiciest red - lightness and purity of fruit is the goal here. Bountiful cherry and raspberry fruits with a confected quality and anise-like spices. A fluid wine with pronounced luminosity and just so much fun to drink - 'the grenadine of the estate' as Val likes to call it. Find out more.

Val de Combrès
Merlinpimpin 2023

Aromas have an inviting raspberry ripple quality that draws you in to sumptuous, concentrated fruit and lively, frothy bubbles. The big trademark VDC fruits are loaded to the front, in the finish tailing into almond cherrystones and amaro herbs. A fabulous new release from Val that is as equally at ease lighting up the party as it is to commence proceedings at the dinner table - bravo! Find out more.

La Grange Du Nord
Mitan 2021

The most boldly-structured of the Grange du Nord wines, Mitan introduces a wild-edged nose of Carignan to the Grenache and Cinsault, and brings a lightly vegetal, stemmy character from the whole bunches. Giving the most textbook notes of the varietals in its expression, there are forest fruits, blackcurrants and spice, with a tannic structure that feels woven into the wine. Find out more.

La Grange Du Nord
Ornière 2022

A fabulously floaty infusion-style wine, showing the diminished tannic structure, pure fruit character and openness of aroma that can be achieved with this restrained method. Fragrant with fresh strawberries and dusty anise, the body of the wine is rounded and gravity-defying, the lightly confected red fruits and spices taking on a pillowy, compote-like quality with a dust of herby liquorice.

Val de Combrès
Traquenard 2023

Serious is perhaps the wrong word, but this is so very much a Rhone Syrah in its blackcurrant fruit, olive and peppercorn character that both leaps from the glass and explodes on the palate. Soft, silken tannins, fragrant aromas of charred capsicum and coffee and a salty bite of tapenade in the finish. A fantastic take on the grape that shows off Val's more finessed side! Find out more.
