For the first time in too long, we have received wines from David Foubert of La Folle Berthe. Some of the finest examples of the tuffeau-rich soils of Saumur-Puy-Notre-Dame.

Read moreLord Of The Fruit Flies
After a tricky 2021, we have new Brand Bros releases from an unusual year in the Pfalz. We spoke with Jonas about rolling with the punches, and the optimism of new growing season.
Read moreSpring at Séléné
There's a sense of frustrating irony to the life of a Beaujolais vigneron in the current climate: survive the frosts just to later battle the sun, but Sylvère & Mathilde are up for the challenge. We have a pair of lively new wines that are a triumph in the face of adversity: being light on their feet, fresh, and pure.
Read moreNew from Offbeat: Field Notes 1 and 2
Just arrived from Offbeat, Field Notes 1 & 2 are here!
A pair of sibling-wines, with fruit sourced from one vineyard on clay soils in Crouch Valley, Essex. These two are a neat example of the cyclical circuit of winemaking and blending Dan & Nic have been perfecting recently.
Read moreWelcome to Clos Kixhaya
With their first vintage in 2020 a huge success, we're honoured to be joining Beatriz and Étienne at the start of their journey. Principled and hugely enthusiastic in their approach, they are testament to the diversity of options available with just 4 hectares of Cab Franc in Chinon, if your passion can match theirs.
Read moreComplemen'Terre: Three Years from the Muscadet Mosaic
We pleased to have new arrivals from Marion and Manu at Complemen'Terre, responsible for some of our favourite expressions of the mosaic-soils of Muscadet within just a 500m radius. We spoke with Manu recently about the new arrivals…
Read moreOnce In A Decade at 2Naturkinder
The second vintage of Weinschwärmer is with us, and its an absolute belter:
"This is a once in a decade vintage I think" Michael told us recently. "I'm not allowed to have favourites, but everything in this vineyard in 2019 worked perfectly. If I'm in the cellar working on carpentry projects or cleaning, and I'm having a glass- you start to notice the barrels you return more often than the others- I really love this vintage."
Read moreThe New Gard: More From Lori Haon
New 2020 cuvees are good to go from our young-gun of the Gard, Lori Haon at Domaine de Petit Oratoire. 2020 was one of the first bumper years for Lori, and the new wines sing the carefree tune of his first easy vintage.
Read moreGolden Drops: The 7 Parcels at Domaine Dandelion
We spoke with Morgane at Dandelion just before Christmas, whilst her and Christian were pressing apples for their first attempt at making cider. We talked through each of their 7 micro parcels to get a clearer sense of the new vintages and how they've been assembled. Scattered across the hills of the Hautes-Côtes de Beaune, their surface now totals just under 3 hectares, with Beaune's limestone as the bedrock beneath each.
Read moreNotes from the Field.
The latest release from Dan & Nic at Offbeat is here: introducing Field Notes 1.
The first instalment of Field Notes is the by-product of their experimentations with maceration techniques and ageing, a supple and pretty blend of Pinots Noir & Blanc from a plot on clay soils in Crouch Valley, Essex.
Read moreBattle of Beaujolais 2021
It's been a tricky year in Beaujolais.
The devastating frost in early April did its worst, followed by hail and high rainfall, perfect conditions for disease: the little fruit that survived was really up against it. It’s a miracle then that we’ve received a 2021 Primeur from Sylvere & Mathilde, the first unlikley survivor of a brutal vintage.
Read moreIntroducing Alexandre Durand of Pèira Levada
We'd like to welcome Alexandre Durand to the fold! Making direct and elegant zero-sulphur expressions of the wild-hearted Faugères as Domaine Pèira Levada. Alexandre works across a tiny patchwork of eight parcels on two distinct terroirs, practicing a no-till organic viticulture.

2020 was kind to the Tisserand family in St Pourcain, with very little in the way of disease and damage, and fermentations that rocketed away. It’s been a while since we’ve had new wines from Loren, and they’re a welcome arrival for Autumn…
