Billaud-Simon 2016 Chablis Grand Cru Bougros
The nose is greeted by an enticing bouquet of delicate white flowers, intertwined with subtle notes of citrus blossom and a hint of honeysuckle. Beneath this floral veil lies a mineral core, evocative of wet stones after a summer rain, complemented by whispers of flint and sea breeze, a signature of the Chablis terroir.
Bougros is located on the right bank of the Serein River, in the north west corner of the Grand Cru slope, which flows through the Chablis region. It has a remarkable south east exposure and the steepest slope of all the Chablis Grand Crus.
Chatelet 2018 Moulin A Vent
A bold and structured Cru Beaujolais, offering aromas of dark cherries, ripe plums, and blackberries, with earthy undertones of forest floor and spices like black pepper and cloves. On the palate, it delivers rich dark fruit flavors, firm tannins, and a robust, mineral-driven backbone, balanced by refreshing acidity. The wine has a long, lingering finish with hints of spice and savory herbs, making it a complex and age-worthy expression of Gamay.
Coquard 2019 Chiroubles 2019
100% Gamay from the Chiroubles appellation in Beaujolais. This is one of the smallest appellations and also one of the most elevated, with some vineyards rising over 450m above sea level.
The 2019 presents lovely purple florals and crisp red fruit. Imagine fresh picked cherry meets a lavender bloom. These aromas are folded into a soft bed of silky fine tannins. Enjoy this wine young or let it develop up to 2029.
