Vineyard of 8.5 ha on the Côte des Bar (Aube), a terroir of choice for pinot noir. It is the 5th generation (Roland Piollot) who converted this family estate to organic farming, certified since 2014.

5 mono-varietal cuvées, aged on laths between 4 and 6 years, make up the Piollot range: Come des Tallants plays on roundness and vinosity while Champs Rayés displays with distinction a more lively and incisive character. The rare 100% pinot blanc Colas Robin is a synthesis of richness and elegance, while Mepetit, a pure pinot meunier with its typical raspberry aromas, is the fruitiest, most appealing and longest in the mouth. Finally, Les Protelles is a rosé of maceration, 100% pinot noir.

Pierre and Sophie Larmandier are among the precursors of biodynamic wines. On their 16 ha vineyard in the south of the Côte des Blancs, they produce champagnes of exemplary naturalness and frankness. Very low (or even no) dosage because they are made from perfectly ripe grapes, their vintages express with precision the aromatic intensity and the delicacy of the greatest chardonnays of Champagne. In short, Larmandier-Bernier obtains with its chardonnays what Égly-Ouriet achieves with its pinots noirs.

A family property reawakened in 2011 by the arrival of the son Paul Garcin, a former rock musician on the Bordeaux scene. Instant passage in organic and biodynamic culture, wines of artist, intuitive, immediately sapid, tasty and with the strong note pleasure, for white wines as for reds.  This approach is praised by the Revue du Vin de France: "Modernity of vision and the ability to reinvent itself without betraying its identity: Haut-Bergey symbolizes the current vitality of the most historic of Bordeaux's vineyards".

The white wine of Smith Haut Lafitte has built up a solid reputation over the last 10 years, even if it is not a grand cru classé (but Haut-Brion blanc and Pape-Clément blanc are not either). A happy marriage of wood and fruit, it always delivers a beautiful aromatic complexity, from lime blossom to citrus, and a lively, rich and fine structure.

The only 1er cru classé in the commune of Sauternes with Yquem, Guiraud offers rich, voluminous, powerful wines with a formal classicism. Certified organic since the 2011 vintage.

Colombe is not the second wine of Château Peyrou but a special cuvée from a 4.5 hectare plot in the eponymous commune of Sainte-Colombe. A graceful and juicy wine, perfectly digestible, with an obvious and exciting fruitiness (90% Merlot). A big bravo!

Mrs Papon-Nouvel is known for her 2 wonderful Saint-Émilion wines: Clos Saint-Julien and Petit-Gravet Aîné. But it also owns Peyrou, a small vineyard (10 ha) of the Côtes de Castillon in organic farming. Excellent and highly recommended.

Mr. Despagne's obsession is to produce the most lively wine in his family estate, planted with old varieties of Merlot and Cabernet. After organic cultivation in the vineyard, any modern input or process is banned in the vat room: no dry ice, yeasts, enzymes, tartaric acid, oak chips... A pure fermented grape juice, aged in barrels for 12 to 18 months and bottled without filtration or fining, promised to keep well and for a long time.
