The Arretxea wine estate is located in the heart of the Basque Country. It's one of the most beautiful vineyards in France. The steep slopes and terraced vineyards face the Pyrenees mountain range. The Riouspeyrous family settled in the magnificent commune of Irouleguy, which bears the appellation's name. Almost 30 years ago, they set about restoring a strong identity and value to Irouleguy, which was still little known, if not despised, by wine lovers.

It was at this time that the Arretxea wine estate began its quest to become the powerhouse of Southwestern wines. The artisan winemaker's craft took on a new meaning, highlighting the importance of respecting the terroir.

Year after year, the whole family sets to work to produce highly complex wines. They study every nook and cranny of their singular terroir, which, it should be remembered, has a long history, with traces of vineyards dating back to the ^12th century.

Working the vines biodynamically and creating micro-cuvées on a parcel-by-parcel basis has given their wines a strong identity. The Riouspeyrous family made this choice of parcels because the diversity of the terroir is incredibly varied. They naturally chose to separate grapes from sandstone, schist and ophite vines.

This approach has borne fruit, as they are now present in some of the world's finest establishments. Their sincere and honest work has impressed many tasters.

All their wines are of irreproachable quality, from the classic Irouleguy to the cuvée Haitza and the extremely rare whites.

Domaine Didier Dagueneau is one of the greatest names in French viticulture. Anyone who has tasted his great Sauvignon wines, such as the cuvée Pur Sang or Silex , knows why they are incomparable. Louis Benjamin and Charlotte Dagueneau took over the wine estate more than 10 years ago, and are breathing new life into the wines, bringing out even more minerality. An absolute model for all lovers of great Pouilly Fumé.

The terroir, the vines and the grapes are worked like haute couture as handed down to them by their father Didier, who passed away prematurely. The level of demand and excellence has never been so high in the last 3 years. We all experienced a moment of hesitation in the wines during the first 5 vintages after Didier's death, but today the wines are regaining all their complexity and elegance.

Although Didier and now Louis Benjamin never wanted to certify their wine estate, they have always been guided by principles they consider essential: respect for the plant and the soil. This is achieved through a global vision of biodynamic viticulture.

Whatever the vintage, Louis Benjamin Dagueneau never stops in his quest for perfection. That's why the sorting in the vineyard is very strict, the winemaking natural and the ageing long and precise.

At the end of the day, each of the parcels vinified gives the best and, above all, expresses a singular personality. Through this meticulous and rigorous work, Louis Benjamin wishes to pay tribute to his father, who was for a long time an icon of French viticulture, and will remain so through the wines produced today at the wine estate.

The André Perret wine estate is located 50 km south of Lyon and covers around 13 hectares of vines on the right bank of the Rhône. It benefits from the best climates in the Condrieu and Saint Joseph appellations .

André Perret took over the wine estate in 1982, with most of the vines cultivated on steep, terraced slopes. The soil is essentially granitic, crumbly and susceptible to erosion.

Under André Perret's influence, the estate, which was initially devoted to mixed farming, has undergone a veritable revival. Today, André Perret's respect for the environment has led to the production of highly reputed wines. Vineyard yields are controlled, grapes are tended and harvested by hand, and winemaking follows a natural process to produce cuvées of Condrieu, Saint-Joseph, Côtes-du-Rhône or varietal wines. The Coteau de Chéry and the Clos Chanson, where the André Perret wine estate cultivates a number of plots, are two of the estate's most famous vineyards.

André Perret has turned his passion into a profession, and is committed to preserving the terroir entrusted to him. It's his daily battle not to alter nature's character, even if it can sometimes impose certain constraints, due in particular to the steep, terraced slopes.

André Perret's yields are very low, so the wines are sold under allocation. This demand, and hence rarity, is the legitimate reward for painstaking work in both vineyard and cellar.

We've fallen in love with his Condrieu wines, which are without doubt among the best in the appellation.

Maison de Champagne Jacquesson, founded in 1798, is a prestigious champagne house located in Dizy, in the Champagne region of France. It is renowned for its long history, its commitment to quality and its unique approach to the elaboration of its cuvées.

It's an exemplary Champagne house, thanks to the two Chiquet brothers. Today, despite the entry of François-Henri Pinault as a minority shareholder, they continue to control the entire process that led them to excellence. The wines have a remarkable level and personality that is the envy of many champagne houses. Even if success is the order of the day, the volume of wines remains under control.

The Vaccelli wine estate, located in the Taravo valley in southern Corsica, is a benchmark in Corsican winegrowing. Founded in the 1960s by Roger Courrèges, this family-run wine estate quickly rose to the top of Corsican viticulture thanks to an unwavering commitment to excellence and a passion handed down from generation to generation.

Today, Gérard Courrèges, supported by his sister Nathalie, continues this tradition by bringing to light the extraordinary potential of the granite terroirs of Cognocoli-Monticchi, just a few kilometers from the Gulf of Porto Pollo. Thanks to meticulous plot selection and a resolutely organic viticultural approach, Gérard has been able to reveal the richness and nuances of his vines, producing wines with a strong identity and unique character.

This passionate viticulturist has made his mark on the Vaccelli wine estate by focusing on emblematic Corsican grape varieties such as Sciaccarellu and Vermentinu, which he cultivates with exemplary rigor. His method, far from conventional, favorsminimalist winemaking, where each cuvée is a faithful reflection of its terroir of origin. This artisanal, nature-friendly approach lends Vaccelli wines a rare authenticity, making them among the most sought-after on the island.

The wine estate's flagship cuvées include reds and whites of great finesse, combining aromatic complexity, minerality and depth. These wines, a true tribute to the Corsican soil, have won over the most demanding sommeliers and are now featured on the menus of the world's finest restaurants.

The recognition of the Vaccelli wine estate does not stop at Corsica's borders. Indeed, Gérard Courrèges' wines are now celebrated far beyond the island, compared to the finest crus of Burgundy and the Rhone Valley. Each bottle embodies the savoir-faire of a family devoted to the vine, and each tasting is an invitation to discover the authentic soul of Corsica.

The treasures of the Vaccelli wine estates are true "vins d'auteur" and jewels of contemporary viticulture, which today radiate far beyond the Isle of Beauty. Whether you're an enlightened wine connoisseur or a curious neophyte, the cuvées from the Vaccelli wine estate will offer you an unforgettable sensory experience, between tradition and modernity, sea and mountain.

At the foot of the Montagne de Reims, in the mythical village ofAmbonnay, Champagne Marguet has embodied a singular, inspired vision of Champagne wine for over a century. Founded in 1875, the company has cultivated an intimate relationship with its terroirs over the generations, before taking a decisive step forward under the impetus of Benoît Marguet, the fifth generation of winemakers. Today, this family-run wine estate is recognized as one of the most radical and inspiring in biodynamic Champagne, as much for its approach as for the luminous quality of its wines.

A singular vision led by Benoît Marguet

Since 2005, Benoît Marguet has been the driving force behind the wine estate. Heir to family know-how, he infuses Champagne Marguet with a rare rigor and a holistic approach to wine. Sensitive to energies and adept at meditation, he sees working in the vineyard as an art of listening and presence. Convinced that the vitality of the soil and the purity of his practices shape the soul of the wine, he has established himself as a leading figure in biodynamic viticulture in the region.

The wine estate's vineyards are managed without herbicides or pesticides, using only plant-based treatments, infusions, essential oils and biodynamic preparations. The soil is worked by horse, in a spirit of respect for ecosystems. An inspired rigor, never dogmatic, that makes Champagne Marguet one of the most vibrant ambassadors of biodynamic viticulture in Champagne, promoting an unadorned expression of terroir.

Terroirs and grape varieties: the strength of place

The wine estate covers just over 8 hectares, mostly Grand Cru in Ambonnay, with parcels in Bouzy and Verzenay, and a few Premier Cru parcels in Vrigny. Pinot Noir, the king of these chalky hillsides, makes up the majority of the vineyard, complemented by Chardonnay and Pinot Meunier.

Each parcel is vinified separately, in old barrels, without oenological inputs or filtration, then aged for a long time on the lees. No expedition liqueur is added, so that only Brut Nature wines are produced, for the most sincere reading of the place.

A collection of precise, lively, racy champagnes

Champagne Marguet's cuvées reflect the purity of their terroir through a style that is chiseled, saline and deeply alive. In Ambonnay, the wine estate has created a series of parcels of rare intensity. La Grande Ruelle Ambonnay Grand Cru explores the clay-limestone depths of the area, while Les Crayères Ambonnay Grand Cru, from a very chalky terroir, vibrates with exceptional mineral energy. Le Parc Ambonnay Grand Cru and Les Saint Rémys Ambonnay Grand Cru each reveal a subtle facet of these lieux-dits, between delicacy and tension.Ambonnay Rosé Grand Cru exalts the bright fruit of Pinot Noir, with restrained power and elegant persistence.

The emblematic Shaman Grand Cru, available in White and Rosé versions, fully embodies Benoît Marguet's philosophy of biodynamic viticulture. It aptly expresses the balance between the power of Pinot Noir and the tension of Chardonnay, in a Brut Nature frame that underlines the wine's straightforwardness. The more exclusive Yuman Premier Cru offers a sunnier, more accessible interpretation, without sacrificing depth.

The terroirs of Bouzy Grand Cru and Verzenay Grand Cru are also magnified in ultra-exclusive cuvées, always in Brut Nature, where the identity of the cru takes precedence over stylistic effects.

Finally, Sapience, the first Champagne cuvée to be produced biodynamically since 2009, is the result of a partnership between Benoît Marguet and other exceptional winemakers. This Blanc de Blancs de grande garde, vinified in amphora and then aged for a long time in the cellar, is aimed at discerning connoisseurs. Its rare version, Sapience Œnothèque, extended aging on lees, testifies to the ability of natural Champagne to gracefully stand the test of time.

Conceived as an aside, Sapience is an extraordinary Blanc de Blancs born of a collaborative project. This exceptional Brut Nature embodies Champagne's elite: five years' ageing on laths, and a meticulous vision of Champagne de garde. The Sapience Œnothèque version extends the experience into an even more introspective dimension, with record-breaking ageing of ten years before disgorgement.

At Champagne Marguet, each bottle is the culmination of a quest for harmony between the living, the soil and the spirit of the terroir. Driven by a demanding vision of biodynamic viticulture, the cuvées shake up the codes without ever betraying the Champagne identity. From the fleshy Pinot Noir of theAmbonnay terroirs to the chiselled expressions of Blanc de Blancs and vibrant, unpretentious rosés, his wines combine depth, energy and sincerity. Benoît Marguet embodies the singular, inspiring voice of a winemaker who listens to nature to make terroirs speak for themselves.

Yves Gangloff is unquestionably one of the finest artisan winemakers in the northern Rhône Valley. He is often described as an artist. His sensibility and inspiration are unique in the world of winemakers, and rightly so. The beauty of Yves Gangloff's story is that it's emotionally charged. Indeed, he started out playing rock and guitar in the village of Condrieu, where he settled in the 1970s. Around this time, the Alsatian decided to take an interest in wine and met Mathilde at Château D'Ampuis. She became his wife and radically changed his life. He became a farmhand at Delas, and at the same time took over a few vineyards in the area to make wine according to his own vision.

The adventure began in the late 80s for Yves and Mathilde Gangloff. They finally decided to bottle their own cuvées, which quickly became benchmarks in the area. They produce powerful yet elegant Condrieu and Côte Rôties .

In 2011, sad and moving news arrived. Mathilde passed away prematurely. Yves Gangloff courageously decided to continue their life's work, with the help of his children Loup and Elsa.

The wine estate now boasts 9 hectares of vines in the finest appellations of the northern Rhône Valley. Its cuvées of Condrieu, Côte Rôtie La Barbarine, Côte Rôtie La Sereine and Saint Joseph are simply extraordinary.
