Vins Gigou Joel Gigou continues to be the iconic producer of Jasnières. This miniscule appellation is 25 miles north of Tours in the Coteaux du Loir (itself an appellation barely larger, where Gigou also has holdings). The whites are a product of that magical Loire symbiosis between Chenin Blanc and tufa. Arguably, the expression here is the most singular and extreme in all the Loire region. Gigou is a conscious archaist. One look at the ancient photograph on his labels of peasants tilling the vineyards will confirm that. But the wines will hold their own against all that modern wine-wizardry can throw forth. They have that thrilling fusion of fruit and mineral which only the greatest Rieslings, white burgundies and Savennières can offer, surmounted by an ethereal floral perfume that brings tears to the eye. Son Ludovic has been groomed to take over the estate, and he has proved to be as attuned as his father to the qualities that are Jasnières’ hallmark. When tasted amongst other wines of the appellation, they were as palpably dominant as any producer we have ever encountered in a comparative tasting. Unsurprisingly, they are a big hit with David Schildknecht. We have now bitten the bullet and brought in our first reds and sparkling wine. The wines have been organic for years, but starting with the 2018 vintage will be certified as such. The yeasts are native. 1/0 Producer: Vins Gigou Country: France Region: Loire Subregion: Coteaux du Loir, Jasnières City of Origin: La Chartre su le Loir Date Founded: 1974 Owner Name: Dorothée and Ludovic Gigou Vineyard Size: 32 acres Total Annual Production: 40-50,000 bt/yr Download Info Sheet Property History: Established in 1974 with 4 hectares in the Jasnieres appellation in the Loire.

Ch. Landereau It is not entirely accurate to describe this Bordeaux stalwart as “new” because Bruno Baylet was a staple of the WineWise portfolio in its early days. But it is many years since we worked with his admirable wines, so we are taking the liberty of treating him as a newcomer, as to most of you he will be one. We could not be happier to re-engage with his uncompromisingly honest and forceful wines. The estate has the French certificate of sustainability known as “Haute Valeur Environnementale”. 1/0 Producer: Ch. Landereau Country: France Region: Bordeaux Subregion: Entre Deux Mers City of Origin: Sadirac Date Founded: 1959 Owner Name: Bruno Baylet Vineyard Size: 80 Total Annual Production: 500,000 bottles Download Info Sheet Property History: Bordeaux is reinventing itself and Bruno Baylet is at the forefront. Chateau Landereau bottles classic style red, white and rosé wines, made with modern techniques and vision (optimum maturity, plots selection, temperature control, inert gas and gravity are used in the winery) with recognized value. In the vineyard, reasoned and sustainable farming methods are in line with the life of the soil, the preservation of the ecosystem and the fostering of the vines. That is the reason why Château Landereau turned itselves to a the HIGH ENVIRONMENTAL VALUE certification (HVE3) and Bee Friendly label. Owner History: Back from Algeria, Henri Baylet and his son Michel acquired Chateau Landereau in 1959, then Chateau de l'Hoste Blanc in 1980. Established in 1988, Bruno Baylet, the third generation, now operates 80 ha in Entre-deux-Mers. The last word is for the winemaker himself : "My definition of a good wine ? Whether it is great, famous or not, a glass of good wine should call for another. It has to bring pleasure.” Wines By Ch. Landereau Ch. Landereau 2019 Bordeaux Superieur View Wine Ch.

View Laurent Perrachon's Producer Page Laurent Perrachon 2022 Moulin a Vent "Terres Roses" It is generally held that the significant admixture of manganese in the granitic soils is what lifts this cru to its important heights. Always the most “burgundian” of Beaujolais wines, Perrachon’s version, hailing from vines with an average of 50 years of age, is an important, meaty wine, with plenty of salt in the stew. Great value.

View Claus Schneider's Producer Page Claus Schneider 2020 Spätburgunder Sonnhohle As colleagues sat - some for the first time - in Schneider’s tasting salon, we cast the same sideways “Are you kidding me?” glances as the flight progressed. The group reached for superlatives when we arrived at Sonnhöhle, a jaw-dropping beauty of a Pinot Noir. The name means “sun cave” in German, aptly describing the relatively warm, south-facing, 50% gradient-steep, amphitheater-like vineyard. Inevitable comparisons to top Cru Burgundy notwithstanding, Sonnhöhle is a light-bodied knockout, an ambrosial revelation of Teutonic magnificence, affirming Schneider’s well-earned reputation as one of the most talented Pinot Noir producers in Baden.
