Elisa Guerin Beaujolais-Village 2021
Supremely drinkable, with a nose of carbo bubblegum and dusty crushed peppercorn spice, followed by some deep black cherry fruit and a lively lick of acidity, all underpinned with stony minerals. The body of the wine is almost weightless, showing supreme...

Elisa Guerin 'La Vigne de Mon Pere' Moulin-à-Vent 2020
The aromas here are wine open, with a lifted floral perfume. With Moulin-à-Vent generally providing more meaty intensity, here an impressive balance of muscularity and elegance is on display, with a granular feel to the grippy tannins. Dark, inky...

Le Mazel Cuvée Briand 2018
Briand is 100% Grenache and is, in our opinion, a perfect example of how this varietal can express itself in this part of the world. The fruit is spicy and red, with a beautiful perfume full of wild fennel and clove. The wine is neatly cut through with...

Wayward Imports
We work with a number of small growers in France & import wine from these producers directly and exclusively.
We are interested in wine from growers who are in tune with the land on which they work, employing organic or bio-dynamic practises to produce low yields of healthy fruit from unique vineyard parcels. This philosophy follows through to the cellar where the wine is made with as few additions as possible - in some cases non at all.
We feel these wines best express the place they come from and the people that make them. They are the wines that we like to drink and we’re very pleased to be bringing them into the UK. We hope you’ll enjoy them too.
