[JEAN-PIERRE MOUEIX Vineyards]
Produced in very limited quantities, Annonce enjoys the same attention as the Grand Vin. A significant portion of Annonce is produced from younger vines, which are part of a replanting program initiated after the Moueix family acquired the estate in 2008. This strategy aims to improve vineyard yield and quality over time as these younger vines mature. It won't be long before the first label "Château Bélair-Monange" is produced from the same vines. Thus, drinking the current Annonce is like drinking the future Château Bélair-Monange. You already understand, of course, that in French, "Annonce" means "announcement" in English, and it also signifies 'sign' or 'omen'. The label depicts an angel as a messenger conveying a bright future for these young vines.

[Mature Bottle Release] Saint Romain is Cossard's home ground. This is a thrilling signature wine from Frédéric Cossard that puzzles wine critics and sommeliers. It deviates from the typical Burgundy Chardonnay. Combe Bazin belongs to the same geological stratum as Puligny Montrachet.
After more than five years of bottle aging, the fruit, acidity, and minerality that were in explosive balance immediately after bottling are now beautifully integrated, yet the tension remains unusually high. In a typical wine tasting, we don't think this would be identified as a Burgundy Chardonnay.
|
[Mature Bottle Release] This wine was made from 60-year-old Vieilles Vignes from a small parcel of 0.35 ha in Les Champs Perdrix. This lieu-dit is located just above La Tache and is surrounded by Aux Reignots, Les Gaudichots, and Au Dessus des Malconsorts.
The 2017 vintage exudes delicate and seductive aromas, with a taste that melts in the mouth, offering a transparency and ethereality, as if only the finest essence of its rich extract were captured. It may represent the ideal vision of VR that every Burgundy wine lover dreams of.
|
[Mature Bottle Release] Les Damodes is located on the border with Vosne-Romanée. Over 55 years Vieilles Vignes from 0.3ha small parcel in Les Damodes. Four weeks maceration in wood tank, and four weeks for fermentation by wild yeast. 2018 has a different character compared to 2017, showcasing a striking contrast. It features a warm, rounded, and thick texture with a rich extract. Perhaps due to its location, there are also elements reminiscent of VR, but the unique earthiness distinctly marks it as NSG. Les Damodes consists of areas classified as Village and Premier Cru, but this is classified as Village. However, once tasted, it becomes clear that the quality consistently surpasses that of most other producers' Premier Cru wines.

[Mature Bottle Release] Following 2018, this is the second production of Mercurey. This time, it is made using Qvevris. When we first tasted the Qvevris wine by Frédéric Cossard immediately after its release (debut was the 2018 vintage), we were bewildered by its extremely unique flavor. However, after observing the maturation process over the years, we have begun to understand Cossard's intentions and the direction in which the wine is heading. It goes without saying that 2019 possesses completely different vintage characteristics compared to the 2018 (which is also controversial), so we highly recommend experiencing both.

Les Blanderies 2021: 100% Chenin Blanc, released in 2024, with a production of 1,305 bottles. This time, we received La Lune 2022, Rosé d'un Jour 2023, and Les Blanderies 2021. Regarding La Lune, there was not much difference compared to the previous vintage from 2021, which was already produced under Martial's initiative, although the weather conditions were different between 2021 and 2022. However, Les Blanderies left a significantly different impression than the 2020 vintage. It may have been just that particular day, but its softness and delicacy combined with a pleasant lightness that felt airy, made it seem more vibrant than the 2020 version. We thought that allowing it to acclimate to the environment here for a few more months might help it focus better.
"Les Blanderies are younger vines planted just below VV, terroir is slightly different. It is still clay but the rocks here are phtanites. Phtanites contribute significant natural citric acid to the grapes. In the 90s, my father had to prove to the administration through analysis that he did not add citric acid to this wine; it is all natural thanks to this special terroir" by Martial Angéli.

The most comfortable wine in the world, Rosé d'un Jour! Made from Grolleau Gris. "Rosé d’un Jour was a sweet wine made with over-matured grapes, so depending on the vintage, it was made either with botrytis or passerillage. We have concluded the production of Rosé d’un Jour, with 2023 being the final vintage, to reduce the size of the vineyard and focus on the Chenin", said Martial Angéli.

[Mature Bottle Release] This is another Saint Romain from Frédéric et Laure Cossard. Needless to say, Saint-Romain is their home ground. Sous la Velle is located 380m above sea level, just next to Sous Roche. The wine has good minerality and pure fruit. Frédéric et Laure Cossard have specially bottled this cuvée only in magnum. In fact, we purchased this cuvée six years ago, but we have never sold it while it has been cellared in Burgundy, making this its first release.
|
[Mature Bottle Release] This special cuvée is bottled only in magnum format. It is made from Pinot Noir sourced from a tiny parcel in Saint-Romain that is the home ground of Frédéric and Laure Cossard. Characterized by floral notes and lovely red berries, the wine is extremely pure, lively, and silky, which embodies the full style we appreciate from Frédéric and Laure Cossard. While it has been delicious since the beginning, the wine has now reached its peak.
