Christophe has been making waves in Saint-Émilion for his boundary-pushing red Bordeaux, and now he pushes the envelope even further by producing a white pét-nat. Slightly funky, with tart green apple, crushed lemongrass, and white pepper, with a round bo

Slightly reductive red and blue fruits, notes of French tarragon, and a light, spritely finish. This is a perfect cold weather piquette.

A very pretty rosé from the French Alps. Bright, red fruit aromas are there to greet you. Fresh flavors of sour cherry and rose petals with an elegant texture and bubbles. Great as an aperitif or after dinner with any sort of fruit or cheese.

This is a yummy, off-dry Pet-Nat reminiscent of the obscure Cerdon de Bugey from Savoie. It’s the perfect wine to pair with spicey larb salad. A true vin de soif. Jean-Paul is one of the star Bojo producers making “old-style” wines with a natural approach

A well balanced Crémant featuring notes of brioche, tart green apple skin, and a luxurious texture and long finish. Edouard Lepesme is one of a handful of daring winemakers who believe Côtes D’Auxerre, next to Chablis, can make wines that hold up to their

A lively sparkling red somewhat reminiscent of Lambrusco; dark and earthy, with generous red fruit. The Cordani family has been making wine for as long as anyone concerned can remember, always retaining an old school natural approach in the vineyard and c

Meinklang owns property in both Austria and Hungary, being situated right on the border; this gives them access to vineyards grown on the trademark volcanic soil of Somló. The result is a zesty, mineral driven pét-nat, with bright citrus fruit, and a hint

There’s a beautiful depth and richness here often found in the best sparkling wines from Penedès. And that’s because Joan was the winemaker at Recaredo for 15 years, where he introduced them to biodynamic farming. He’s a true pioneer in the region, and we
