Châteaux La Tour Blanche, Lafaurie-Peyraguey, Rabaud-Promis, Rayne-Vigneau, Sigalas-Rabaud

These 5 first growths of the commune of Bommes (Sauternes) have joined forces to offer in each vintage a limited edition in a luxurious case containing a bottle of each one plus, it is unprecedented, a sixth bottle resulting from the blending of their 5 wines as soon as they are matured in barrels.

L'Isle Fort is known for producing "one of the most elegant and gourmet Bordeaux Supérieur" as Mr. Bettane so rightly wrote. With vineyard management worthy of a classified growth (leaf removal, green harvesting, etc.), coupled with the supervision of Mr. Derenoncourt in the cellar, everything is done to ensure high precision viticulture.

On the 9 ha of the vineyard, made up of a gravel plateau (planted with Cabernet Sauvignon) and south-facing clay-limestone slopes (planted with Merlot and Cabernet Franc), L'Isle Fort has isolated 1.9 ha: 48% Merlot, 32% Cabernet Franc, 20% Cabernet Sauvignon.

With a vinification guided by the respect of natural expressions (in non-certified organic culture), this "Cuvée précieuse" pays tribute to the best of the Entre-deux-Mers: a preserved environment in which woods, meadows, lakes, rivers and vineyards constitute an ecosystem of great wealth.

Offered in a set of six bottles of the same wine, but dressed with six different labels.

The 2021 vintage marks 200 years since the Barton family acquired Château Langoa in 1821.

To celebrate this bicentenary, Château Langoa-Barton has put together a boxed set of the most significant vintages in its recent history, adorned with original labels tracing the development of the estate:

- 1 bottle of the 1994 vintage, "L'Origine
- 1 bottle from the 2000 vintage, "L'Héritage
- 1 bottle from the 2009 vintage, "La Nature
- 1 bottle of the 2016 vintage, "L'Évolution
- 1 magnum of the 2021 vintage, with a label combining the 4 paintings.

This limited edition box set (200 pieces) is made and numbered by hand.

Since 1994, Michel Tardieu has been selecting and growing wines from very old vines and from the best terroirs of each appellation. Associated until 2007 with Dominique Laurent, known for the concentration of his Burgundy wines, Michel Tardieu has, because of the innate richness of the Rhone Valley wines, always sought to favour elegance and aromatic complexity in his selections.

Promoted to two stars in the Revue du Vin de France's 2022 guide.

For the past few years, Michel Tardieu and his son Bastien have been isolating the grapes from a few specific parcels to produce three cuvées that represent the excellence of their respective appellations. Aptly named "Le goût du lieu", they are the archetype of their terroirs (selection of reputed localities, old vines...) enhanced by the meticulous care of their winemakers (vinification in whole bunches or in part, maturing on fine lees, finishing in stoneware amphora...).

These exceptional cuvées, capable of competing with the best cuvées of the region, are brought together in a mixed case of 3 bottles (produced in only 600 copies):
• 1 bottle of Condrieu blanc 2020, lieu-dit "Enrochement" sur Côte Bonnette, 45 years old vines
• 1 bottle of red Saint-Joseph 2018, lieu-dit Chaillets sur Gervans, vines (petite serine) more than 100 years old
• 1 bottle of red Crozes-Hermitage 2018, lieu-dit Chaillets sur Chavannay, vines aged 60 years and over
 

Dirk Van der Niepoort, a talented Port producer, is an unusual character: quirky, visionary and intuitive. Faithful to Portuguese know-how and grape varieties, he has created an abundance of vintages (more than 50!) highlighting here a terroir, there a grape variety or unconventional vinification. This year, in collaboration with his wife (who is passionate about Japanese tea), he is offering a rather special gift set:

- 1 bottle of his classic Tawny Port, aged for 7 years in small oak barrels,

- 1 box of Pipa Cha (75g), an organic Oolong tea matured in the barrels used to age the Port.
