Although the Georges Glantenay estate goes back five generations, their history as a estate-bottler of fine Burgundy is more recent. Prior to 2014 when the current generation, Brother-Sister team of Guillaume and Sarah Glantenay took over, most of the production was sold either as grapes or as wine in bulk
Read MoreDomaine Jean-Baptiste Boudier
Jean-Baptiste Boudier’s training took him from Beaune’s viticultural school to New Zealand and Roussillon, with 2 years studying oenology in Bordeaux, including 6 months at Château Haut-Brion. It was during the 2014 harvest that he worked for the first time alongside his father at the family`s Pernand-Vergelesses Domaine. Their different visions of wine soon became apparent and they mutually decided that Jean-Baptiste deserved a chance to experiment on his own.
Read MoreBenoit Moreau te Chassagne-Montrachet
Benoît Moreau werkte twintig jaar op het domein van vader Bernard Moreau waar hij voor de kelder en de wijnstokken zorgde.
In 2020 scheidde hij zich van zijn broer Alexandre en zette een handelsactiviteit op in afwachting van de exploitatie van zijn eigen wijnstokken. Gepassioneerd door biodynamiek wil Benoît heel ver gaan in zijn landbouwpraktijken: hij bewerkt de wijngaarden met lichte machines zodat ze voldoende zuurstof kunnen opnemen en verzorgt zijn wijnstokken zoveel mogelijk met de hand.

If you do not use herbicides, do not fertilize the soil, work the soil by plowing it regularly and thus promote life in it, only then can you speak of 'terroir'...
Read MoreDomaine Coquard Loison Fleurot ~ Flagey-Echezeaux
Always looking for new emerging talents, I asked Sébastien Cathiard a few years ago if he had any tips for me. He told me about Thomas Colladot, his best friend, who was busy with the metamorphosis of a domain completely unknown to me in Flagey-Echezeaux.

Read MoreDomaine Roc des Anges ~ Montner
We share a passion for wine and horses. It shaped and defined who we are
Our time in the Roussillon has been like a long road trip where each new journey builds upon the previous one. There are no conclusions or lessons to be drawn. Instead, we let our curiosity guide us, we let time take its course, we let the vines and the wines lead the way... seeking the true expression of our terroir. Sun, wind, drought, stones ... are no longer obstacles to our wines.
Read MoreDomaine du Clos Naudin Philippe Foreau ~ Vouvray
By tasting the Vouvrays of Philippe Foreau, everything becomes clear, legible in the chenin; what is complex is also greedy, what is very ripe therefore remains tense, what is early good is confirmed and amplified over the decades. Pure, long in the mouth, with a proverbial persistence, the Vouvrays of Clos Naudin have the regularity of a metronome despite the variations of the Loire climate.
Read MoreDomaine Serge Dageuneau et Filles ~ Saint Andelain
This branch of the Dagueneau family headed by father Serge is based in Saint Andelain and owns 19 hectares of old vineyards across several of the prime sites of the appellation as well as 3 hectares in the nearby appellation of Cotes de la Charite. Today the estate is run by Serge's daughter Valerie, cousin of the late Didier Dagueneau, and Serge still helps in the vineyard.
Read MoreDomaine Jean-Luc Jamet ~ Ampuis
You cannot write a story about winegrower Jean-Luc Jamet without spending a few words on the final split in 2013 with his brother Jean-Paul Jamet. Until that year, they had successfully run the old family domain in Le Vallin, Ampuis, for 25 years, but the differences of opinion ran so high that an abrupt break was necessary. The real cause remains guesswork, that's how correct they are…

Guy Breton
Villié-Morgon – the most Burgundian winegrower in all of Beaujolais

Meeting Stéphane Vedeau is realizing that you still have so much to learn about wine. He is passionate and a perfectionist. Many of the producers we work with combine these 2 traits.
For him, perfection in wine means the true expression of the terroir.
Read MoreDomaine Louis Chèze ~ Limony
Wow, what a challenge to work these steep slopes on the Rhone. Those great 'terroirs' that have been around for so long but can only be brought back to life by humans.
The respect for the vineyard, a separate vinification for the grapes of each of these plots and an appropriate education in order to obtain the different styles of wines.
