Love it. Plump and juicy with salted plum before being tempered with a dusting of dried herbs thanks to the Cab Franc. We're calling it Autumn in a glass so play your favourite rendition of Autumn Leaves – Nat King Cole maybe?

Black fruits and floral notes that flow with silky tannins and fresh herbs. It’s a small grain Gamay Noir that was aged for 12 months to let all the body and precision take shape and hold us lovingly, and deliciously. Yum.

Super juice that’s brimming with sweet cherry, raspberry and strawberry. Take it to the couch and plonk it in an ice bucket, it’ll add some juiciness while you rewatch your favourite sitcom, or lighten-up that brooding arthouse masterpiece you've been wanting to watch for years.

Piron Coq Leon 2023

This has it all—old vine intensity complemented by the bright, tense style. Cherry aromas carry through to the palate with pure, cherry flavour, a clean slice of tannin and granitic energy. If we could only use two just two words, they'd be: so. good.

Frederic Berne Morgon Corcelette Gamay 2021

Planted in 1966, these vines are in a real sweet spot. All the lifted florals and pure berries and peppery spices seem so effortlessly intertwined, but it’s Bouland’s winemaking that brings that quality into focus. Encore! (Does that mean we get another bottle in this case?)

Bouland Morgon Corcelette 2023

From 100-year-old vines. That means more deeper, violet fruits and lifted tension. There’s a lot to unpack here and the berry-laden profile is layered with minerality, savouriness and some steady, fine grained tannins that are no doubt thanks to the sandy soils the vineyard sits on.
