Riserva is a selection of the oldest vines in Currá, produced only in the greatest vintages. A dream Barbaresco, with perfectly polished tannins.

A historic property (formerly the farm of the Grand Dukes of Tuscany), Fèlsina is one of Chianti's leading producers and, as such, is entirely dedicated to Sangiovese (100% of its vineyards), which finds one of its most accomplished expressions here. Across all its vintages, Fèlsina demonstrates a keen sense of balance and finesse, a stubborn determination to preserve the freshness of the fruit by avoiding any jammy notes, and above all, consistently fair prices.

Since 1967, Berardenga has been the estate's basic vintage, fruity, full-bodied (despite its translucent colour) and immediately flavourful.

Fontalloro is their ‘modern’ version of Chianti, sourced from the highest vineyards (400 metres above sea level) in the southern part of the appellation. The grapes are harvested twice to ensure that only perfectly ripe bunches are picked each time, and the wine is aged for 18 months in new French oak barrels. This wine is classified as a Tuscan appellation, better known for export than its Chianti Colli Senesi appellation.

Small estate but the most representative of all Tuscany: because Gianni Brunelli gathers two complementary terroirs (2 ha on clay in the north of the appellation, 4.5 ha on schist and limestone in the south), because it is 100% sangiovese, because it is advised by the local oenologist Paolo Vagaggini (like a third of the Tuscan properties). Here, they don't produce a whole host of wines, but only a Rosso and two Brunellos, the classic and (only in great vintages) the Riserva.

As Mr. Guido (Vinous) wrote in November 2021 "Gianni Brunelli, a producer who continues to prove that Brunello di Montalcino is a world-class vineyard".

The story of Luca d'Attoma in Tuscany is similar to that of Stéphane Derenoncourt in Bordeaux. First of all, Luca d'Attoma is one of the most famous oenologists in Italy, having worked since 1991 as a consultant in mythical estates such as Tua Rita or Macchiole. In 2000, he decided to create his own vineyard, Duemani, which quickly became a cult in Tuscany (first Italian wine rated 100/100 by Robert Parker). The 7 hectares cover a natural amphitheater 9 km from the Mediterranean, facing west, with soil (clay and stone) very low fertility. The vineyard is fully biodynamic (Demeter).

Suisassi, 100% Syrah, aged in French oak barrels (70% new). An energetic Syrah, at once firm, soft and fresh, in a ripe and rich expression.

The 2016 and 2018 vintages were scored identically by A. Galloni (Vinous): 95/100 for Duemani and 96/100 for Suisassi.

In the 1920s, the Marquis Incisa della Rochetta wanted to create a "noble" wine, i.e., one that was close to the taste of Bordeaux wines. On his estate of Tenuta San Guido, located in Maremma (coastal Tuscany), he had Cabernet Sauvignon (85% today) planted, convinced by their racy tannic structure and their durability. The climate, cooled by the sea breeze from the Mediterranean 5 km away and by the altitude (100 to 400 m), is particularly conducive to a slow maturation of the Cabernet berries.

All the wines of Tenuta San Guido are built around Cabernet Sauvignon as the main grape variety, combined with another minority variety. Sassicaia, a pioneer in the super-Tuscan movement that followed, gained international recognition in 1971 and has never lost it since.

Guidalberto, a step above Difese, is a Cabernet-Sauvignon/Merlot blend with a Medoc-like profile, elegant and distinguished while remaining greedy.

Sassicaia, the Tuscan star, a Cabernet Sauvignon/Cabernet Franc blend, is a unique wine. No extravagance but a perfect balance between aromatic complexity (blackberry, blueberry, balsamic notes), superlative finesse and controlled power. All in delicacy, a wine of great class!

Dirk Van der Niepoort, a talented Port producer, is an unusual character: quirky, visionary and intuitive. Twenty-five years ago, he set out to introduce the quality of the wines of northern Portugal, while remaining faithful to Portuguese know-how and grape varieties. He has created a plethora of vintages (more than 50!) highlighting here a terroir, there a grape variety or unconventional winemaking. Faithful to ancestral Portuguese traditions, Mr Van der Niepoort makes his red wines by blending local grape varieties: touriga nacional, touriga franca, tinta roriz, alfrocheiro, baga, jaen...

The term Vinho Verde originally referred to young and fresh wines and applied to both whites and reds. It has long been synonymous with white wines with a formidable acidity because they come from still green grapes. Mr. Van der Niepoort created this Dócil cuvée to demonstrate that a good Vinho Verde could be "docile". Vinified and matured in stainless steel vats, this wine made from the Loureiro grape variety on a granitic terroir offers a refreshing, crisp and fresh palate with floral (hawthorn, fern) and fruity (green apple, grapefruit, lime) aromas. And only 11° because the Vinho Verde appellation is not granted to wines titling more than 11°5.

António Madeira, a French engineer of Portuguese origin, decided in 2010 to return to the land of his ancestors, the Serra da Estrela. On this magnificent granite plateau considered to be the “terroir of the grands crus” of the Dão, António cultivates his plots of old vines (over 50 years old) planted with more than 30 grape varieties in a very hands-off manner. (more than 30 grape varieties). With moderate alcohol levels, his wines, which are more infused than extracted, have very pure aromatic expressions supported by delicate structures. A Burgundian version of Portuguese wines.

Delicate on the palate, Tinto is full-bodied and luscious with delicious fruitiness. A very fine entry-level wine, predominantly made from black Alfrocheiro grapes.

Vinhas Velhas is a blend of different parcels of old vines from the estate. Composed of more than 20 different grape varieties (Mencia, Baga, Tinta Amarela, etc.), it is the wine that best represents António's work, with a full-bodied, dense and creamy palate, with notes of tart black fruits.

Taylor's is the most famous House producing so-called English style Ports, i. e. straight and slender (while Graham, the other big House of Porto, represents the Portuguese style, softer and sweeter).

Classic Vintage is a blend of their 3 historical quintas: Vargellas, Terra Feita and Junco. No vintage between 2011 and 2016.

When Adrien David-Beaulieu, owner of Château Coutet, met the Shinko family, Japanese masters of soy sauce, he was inspired to produce soy sauces in Saint-Emilion. The manufacturing process is reminiscent of wine-making: fermentation of soy beans and wheat grains, maceration (up to 7 months) and aging (up to 18 months).

By importing from Japan the famous koji mushroom responsible for fermentation, selecting an organic cereal producer 14 km from his farm and a salt-maker on the Ile de Ré (the quality of the salt is a determining factor in soy sauce), Adrien David-Beaulieu has been proud to succeed in producing 'premium', local soy sauces since 2023. With their sweetness, intensity on the palate and aromatic complexity, these homemade sauces, which have nothing in common with industrial concoctions, bring all dishes (meat, fish, broths, marinades, vegetables...) into aromatic universes as original as they are rich in umami.

Black is the classic, full-bodied soy sauce, 50% wheat and 50% soy, aged 18 months in oak barrels.

White is a rare soy sauce, 90% wheat and 10% soy, macerated and aged for 6 months in stainless steel tanks, with a milder, more delicate flavor. Both sauces can be refrigerated for 3 months after opening.
