Now that Spring is upon us heralding the end of the endless winter mist we thought it time to put together a selection of natural wines fit for the Season. Light, bright, fresh, aromatic, sensual: these are the bottles we reach for at this time of year.
An ingenious multi-purpose beverage; sparkling Gamay juice infused with wild herbs, apple, lemon & ginger. The ideal bottle if you are abstaining, but equally the necessary tonic when the morning after requires restorative properties Find out more.
A red so light we almost called it a rosé. Purity of fruit is the name of the game here, hinged on the idea of travelling from tank to bottle at the precise moment that 'grape juice' becomes 'wine'. It's no doubt clear that this highly youthful style leaves us with a Gamay that is prodigiously drinkable and you'll most certainly want on ice. Find out more.

Elisa is back with the 2022 iteration of this Wayward favourite. From a hot vintage this is a deeper, riper Gamay that nonetheless retains its delicacy and verve. Dusty spices, black cherry fruits, stony minerals and elegant, fine-grained tannins. Just delicious. Find out more.

Wow! This is one of those wines that makes a lasting impression for its pure deliciousness. What comes across most distinctively, from beneath all that bright, energetic red berry fruit, is a profoundly stony, mineral tone, as if the wine had been filtered through rock. At once easy to drink, but divertingly complex. Find out more.

An impressive example of this elevated cru. The texture of the wine is beautifully soft and silky, with integrated, lightly gripping tannic structure. An elegant Beaujolais that bears the complexity of its old-vine origin. Find out more.
