The range "Fifi and Marcel" was created by the inhabitants of the famous Château Fonbadet to offer some of the most classic grape varieties in France at an affordable price while keeping the quality in the foreground. The regions designated for this project are Côtes de Gascogne for white wines and Languedoc for red wines. An appropriate research of the soil and the climate of each place allows to create fruity and mineral white wines with a lot of freshness and for red wines of a beautiful concentration and at the same time seductive, sensual and tasty.

The Cave of Sommières is one of the best in the Languedoc region. The quality standard here is high and meets all contemporary taste requirements. With 'Les Cépages' they present an exquisite range of individual grapes where each grape results in a wine that embodies and reflects its unique and pure character. Sommières is the smallest Cru from Languedoc. Due to its calcareous soils and many hours of sunshine, the grapes benefit from optimal conditions to produce wonderfully ripe, pure and balanced wines. Viticulture has been practiced here since the Romans. The beautiful historic town therefore exudes a rich history and is mainly known among tourists for its old medieval center and its beautiful Roman bridge that was built under the Roman Emperor Tiberius and incorporated into their logo as a symbol of the region.

Domaine Grand-Chemin

The Floutier family has managed the Domaine Grand Chemin for more than 300 years or 5 generations. Father, Jean-Marc and his 2 sons, Frédéric and Emmanuel, can let themselves go of renewal and experimental innovations in a region like the Cevennes. More than 50 different grapes are therefore allowed in the Pays d'Oc appellation, which means that there is no other wine region in France where you can display your own input and ingenuity. The legislation here is much looser than in the rest of France and allows flexible handling of grape varieties and grape combinations. In addition, the soil is also unusually versatile and home to many grapes. The Mediterranean climate and the immediate vicinity of the mountains (and the associated cooling) also offer the grapes ample opportunity to reach full ripening slowly and ideally. Grand Chemin guarantees an extensive, surprising and above all delicious range of wines with sometimes unexpected but delicious grape combinations. They also make wines under 3 different appellations: Pays d'Oc, Vins des Cevennes and Duché d'Uzés. This last small appellation is located to the east of the domain and includes 300 ha of vineyards around the town of Uzés, which is an extension of the Rhone valley. Cabernet Sauvignon with Pinot Noir…? Bring it on!

Capitelles

A 'Capitelle' is a house ('cabin') made of stones stacked together without the addition of cement or other materials. They are located among the vineyards in Languedoc and provide the workers in the fields with a place to put away their tools or to take a nap between jobs. They are typical of the Cevennes region and help define the landscape. Originally Les Vignerons des Capitelles were actually 5 different Caves Coopératives in the Gard but in 2016 it was decided to gather into one company that controls the wine process from start to finish, putting quality as one of the main pillars. Most winemakers are young, ambitious and already working according to organic regulations. The others are in the middle of a conversion period towards organic viticulture. The wines are simple and tasty but produced with great skill and know-how. They offer inversely proportional drinking pleasure for relatively little money and allow you as a consumer to enjoy them without too much fuss or unnecessary frills.

Most of the winemakers are young and ambitious, already adhering to organic legislation, while others are in the process of transitioning to organic viticulture. The wines are honest and flavorful, crafted with great expertise and know-how. They offer generous tasting pleasure at a relatively affordable price, without unnecessary frills or superfluous embellishments. As a consumer, enjoy these delightful wines without any fuss.

Château Planères

The winery can look back on 4 generations of winegrowers and is a family collaboration between the Jaubert and Nourry families. It is located on a stony plateau that dominates the village of Saint-Jean-Lasseille. Due to the rough conditions, the vine has to work hard here to reach full maturity. The poor sandy soils with many boulders and limited limestone oblige it to dig very deep with its roots to ensure its food supply. This means that the very old grapevines can also provide themselves with water in times of drought and thus ensure a constant and balanced ripening of the grapes. Located between the Pyrenees and the Mediterranean, the climate here can also be very harsh. The constant play of winds and temperature fluctuations results in wines that display an incredible refinement, concentration, structure and balance. All Planères wines are therefore individual expressions of all these conditions together, with each vintage also requiring its own approach. Don't expect a bombastic or stewed jam style here, but delicate, mineral and terroir bound gems with a lot of personality that will undoubtedly make the heart of the true wine lover beat faster.

Domaine Ancely

In 1970, the parents of Bernard Ancely founded the domain. Located at the foot of the "Montagne Noire" Ancely enjoys the gifted terroir of dry, rocky soils with a high chalk content. The vineyards are perfect South, South West oriented. As a child, Bernard already found it a privilege to work in the vineyards. Not helping was a punishment ... just a little different than other children at that age. Bernard knows every vine on his vineyard and knows what they need. After he took over the winery of his parents he recovered an old and neglected parcel and restored it. He made it the jewel of the estate and called it "Les Oubliées", the forgotten vines, which produces a wine for which each wine lover will be respectful. But actually, this applies to all his wines: excellent result of hard work combined with know-how and a reflection of the wild nature that characterizes this beautiful region!

Florie

Florie is a brand of Les Vignerons du Roy René. This winery, founded in 1922, was named after one of the most beloved kings of France. King René lived close to the common people and was known as a generous and good man who like to share his time with the average man, participated in parties and tournaments and thus when one of the few kings conquered a place in the heart of the Provencal people. The winery uses the strictest standards of the region and all vineyards must obtain a certificate from the Chamber of Agriculture that guarantees respectful and environmentally friendly viticulture (culture raisonnée). For example, they often apply stricter standards than many individual winegrowers, and several of their wines are voted the best in the region year after year. The vineyards are also subdivided according to location, soil and quality and thus guarantee that a maximum level per wine can also be achieved in the bottle and that each bottle can be traced up to the vineyard. They also link a more than fair price to their different wines which absolutely cannot be said of some so-called "big" names in Provence and some film stars settled there.

This domain enjoys a lime-clay plateau, just on the appellation of Vacqueras, their most important production. In 1990 Charles Carichon took over the domain from his father. He immediately carried out a drastic renovation of the accommodations, equipment and materials to give the wines a modern and contemporary character. Over the years, other vineyards were bought on the appellations of Ventoux, Cairanne, Gigondas and Châteauneuf-du-Pape. Although they do not have an official bio-certificate, they work according to the same techniques and try to limit other interventions to a minimum. Expect delicious, clean and tasty styles that will convince you with a pleasant price.

Domaine Olga Raffault

Located between the Loire and the Vienne, the vineyards of Olga Raffault are situated. Olga was running the family domain together with her husband when her husband died suddenly in the fantastic 1947 vintage. With the help of Ernest Zeinninger, a German soldier who was taken prisoner of war at the end of the war but who was released under the protection of the Raffault family, a top wine was finally realized that year. Having never understood the war, he later bonded with the domain and the Raffault family, resulting in a close friendship that would last. Later her son took over the domain and today it is granddaughter Sylvie Raffault who, with her husband and son, honors the legacy of Olga. The necessary modernizations and new techniques were implemented, but the style and character that Olga had in mind were retained. The wine and vineyards are fully organically labeled and are made and maintained with the greatest care and respect for the environment and climate.

Pinon Damien

Damien and Ingrid Pinon are both one team as well as winemakers as in daily life. Among them, the domain was completely modernized and given a contemporary style. The vineyards are 100% Chenin Blanc planted for both foam and still wines and have been organically farmed for over 10 years. This includes avoiding chemical fertilizers and sprays, plowing natural vegetation between the rows to promote the balance of the local flora and fauna, etc. However, this organic method has never been endorsed with a certified label. Since 2020, work has also been done on this and an official certificate is pending. One of the great assets of Vouvray is the rather unique subsoil of a specific type of limestone and millennia-old remains of crustaceans called Tuffeau. This geological layer dates back to Turoon, so named because this geological timeline is most visible near the city of Tours. It guarantees one of the best expressions of Chenin anywhere in the world. The beautiful cellar of the domain, where the wines ferment and mature, was completely hewn from this lime layer.

Antoine de la Farge

Antoine's grandfather, Gerard Clément, was one of the most respected winemakers in the region and one of the founders of the 'Menetou-Salon' appellation. He is still present on the domain and for Antoine he was and still is his great inspiration and example. He started his career in a wine shop and later became a wine buyer for one of France's largest wine merchants. Here he was given the opportunity to expand his knowledge enormously and gain international experience (ex. in Australia). After 12 years of experience, he returned to the domain in 2012 to put all that experience into practice. As a winemaker, Antoine feels like a conductor who transforms the soil into music. Every wine must be a natural reflection of its soil and requires sustainable agriculture to achieve this. The winegrower is the cement between the grape variety and the final wine. He does not want to manipulate the wine, but only to accompany it gently. That is why all grapes are picked by hand, only gravity is used and no yeasts are added to get the fermentation going. His wines therefore constantly win prizes!

Domaine Gadais Père et Fils

For 5 generations, the Gadais family has been guaranteeing the production of top Muscadet sur Lie in the Loire village of Saint-Fiacre-Sur-maine. Since the early 1700s, the “Melon de Bourgogne” (Muscadet) has been renowned for its almost unbeatable combination with fish dishes and more specifically shellfish and seafood. The grape is indeed originally from Burgundy, but nowadays it is only produced in the region around Nantes. The region of the Muscadet has traditionally been dominated by large trading houses that put quantity over quality, making it difficult for the smaller winegrower to compete and leading to a price war that only knew losers. But for some time now, under the impulse of a few passionate winegrowers, the qualities have increased enormously and you can even find gems of wines there for modest prices. The Gadais family owns several domains and is one of the pioneers in the field of modernization, ecological and sustainable agriculture and quality improvement in general. The vineyard where there is historically the very first known mention of Muscadet is also in their possession. They gave the Melon de Bourgogne back the place where it rightly belongs. Namely among the best culinary wines of France.

Donatien Bahuaud

Born in 1906, Donatien Bahuaud has been passionate about viticulture since early childhood. As a young man, he was then 23 years old, he founded the house “Donatien Bahuaud” and was one of the founders of the AOC “Muscadet sur Lie”. In 1957 he buys Château Cassemichère from where he specializes in the different terroirs and soils of the Loire. Everywhere he is looking for the ideal pieces of land to grow wine. He goes from Nantes, via Chinon and Saint-Nicolas-de-Bourgueil, to Pouilly Fumé, exploring almost the entire terroir of the Loire. Another thing that set him apart from most vintners was his specialization in "educating" the wine, which, according to him, makes the difference between just good and real top wine. Today, at Donatien Bahuaud, they continue to pursue the ideas and knowledge of this exceptional winemaker, benefiting from his pioneering work as the discoverer of the very best vineyards in the various appellations. His wines are therefore real gems and represent an entire wine region such as the Loire.

Monmousseau

What's in a name? In 1886 Alcide Monmousseau founded a winery that specialized entirely in creating and raising Sparkling wines in the classic way as in Champagne where the wine gets its pearls on the bottle. In the shadow of the famous castle of Chenonceau, huge cellars were dug out of one of the largest Tuffo layers in France. This white rock was not only used to build castles and abbeys, but is also ideal as a thermoregulatory material for the storage and aging of sparkling wines. The wines therefore receive a long maturation sur lattes, making them among the finest and most balanced in the region. They also pride themselves on exceptional mastery of blending. Their Crémant de Loire therefore consists of 6 different grapes, all of which contribute to the ideal assembly.

Here in southern Burgundy, the grapes enjoy more sun and Mediterranean influences, making the wines appear riper and rounder. The domain was founded in 1889, so that the 5th generation has now taken over the torch. Domaine du Bicheron can therefore build on a long tradition and experience in which the newer generations also introduced the latest techniques and installations. Like any right-minded modern company, great respect for the environment and climate is central here too. They have been working according to the Lutte Raisonnée for a long time, but since 2018 they now also have a real Bio label, HVE (Haute Valeur Environnementale). Moreover, a region like Burgundy naturally has its price (and today it has evolved out of all proportion). In that sense, you will find beautiful and honest wines here that form an affordable and tasty alternative to the top wines of the Côte d'Or, which are only available to a select audience these days.

Chablis Thomas Labille

In 1987, Etienne Boileau, Christian Simon and William Nahan pooled their available vineyards, giving them 11 hectares to ensure the start-up. 80 ha is still used to grow grain. A year later, the vineyard is already doubled. After a few difficult early years, the cultivation of grain is completely stopped and only one focus remains: WINE! In 1993, heavy investments were made in the cellars to guarantee an autonomous and qualitative vinification. This immediately leads to a first gold medal at the Concours Agricole de Paris. Over the years, several modernizations as well as prizes and medals followed. Gradually, the original domain manifested itself at the beginning of this century as one of the fixed values and better domains of Chablis. In 2019, the 3 original partners will retire and the succession will be ensured by Arnaud Nahan and Thomas Labille. With their latest vintages they prove that the quality has only improved. The original name is changed to simply 'Thomas Labille' but it remains Chablis and Chardonnay with a capital C... Bring on those oysters!

Domaine Passy le Clou

Domaine Patrice was founded in 1950 by the father of Gérard and Christian Patrice. The land with grain was switched to grape-growing and the accommodations to wine-growing in general. It was mainly Gérard who took care of the growing wine section. The available land in Petit Chablis, Chablis and Chablis 1er Cru Beauroy was initially worked for the Cave Coopérative, but in the early 2000s all installations were purchased to enable the transition to the production of high-quality Chablis wines. In the first years, the wines were still sold to Negociants, but since 2017 Domaine Passy Le Clou became a fact and the wines are marketed under their own name and management. From its first year on, the domain has garnered rave reviews from many wine fanatics, won the necessary prizes and immediately settled among the better producers of the appellation. They stand for sustainable viticulture with great respect for nature and in 2019 obtained the certificate: “Haute Valeur Environnementale”. The future therefore smiles broadly and radiantly at Passy Le Clou.

Fonbadet

In the north of the Village of Saint-Lambert, the Château Fonbadet vineyard can be found, amidst the most reputed estates of the Pauillac Appellation. Fonbadet, the place that gave its name to the estate, is a typical place name in the Médoc terroir, a combination of the Gascogne words meaning fountain (fon) of the little valley (badet). In the Middle Ages, the estate was part of the Château Latour domain and all the evidence dating back to that period shows that vines were planted very early on.Since 2014, Michel Rolland's aid has also been called in. They also have a few other domains in Pauillac including Château Pauillac, a small domain located at a vineyard, were Château Latour also has its vineyards. The wine is 100% on new oak and consists of 70% cabernet sauvignon and 30% merlot. The 2nd wine is called "L'Harmonie de Fonbadet" and consists of the same mixture as mentioned below.

Château Prieuré-Lichine (Bordeaux Collection)

Already in the 15th century there was structured viticulture by the monks of Cantenac. The domain served as a stopping place for pilgrims en route to Compostela. Prieuré-Lichine, for example, is a big exception in the classification of 1855, because almost all domains belonged to the nobility or the rich Bourgeoisie and there were no other wine properties in Bordeaux that belonged to the church. In 1952, Alexis bought Lichine, and named it Prieuré-Lichine. Alexis was one of the most colorful figures and best tasters ever in the history of Bordeaux. Just typing him would probably cost us a small book. Today the current owner, the Ballande group, owner of the most renowned domains in the world, boasts that you can find all the best features that Margaux has in one bottle of them.

Château La Dominique (Bordeaux Collection)

Dominique has a long history in the region that goes back to the beginning of the 18th century. The name comes from the first owner who made his fortune on the Caribbean island of the same name. In 1969 the domain was bought by the current owners, the Fayat family. Clément Fayat was a rather remarkable figure who started his career as a bricklayer and from there grew into one of the largest construction companies in the world. It took a while before he implemented modernisations, but gradually a new drainage system was installed first and later a completely new basement was added. But it is mainly since 2007, when the new wine consultant, Jean-Luc Thunevin, joined the team that qualitative steps were taken and Dominique settled at the top of Saint-Emilion.

Château Grand Mayne (Bordeaux Collection)

The name Grand Mayne can be taken literally in this case and is freely translated for a luxurious house with a large piece of land attached to it. The house itself was built at the end of the 15th century and then also had 250 hectares of vineyards, which, compared to the 21 hectares of today, was a lot bigger. In 1934 the domain was purchased by the Nony family who modernized for generations but the biggest change, and a huge leap forward in quality came only from the vintage of 2015. Brand new accommodations and especially the influence of the new wine consultant Louis Mitjavil make Grand Mayne today one of the references of Saint-Emilion. The last volumes are therefore officially the best wines ever produced on Grand Mayne.

Champagne Michel Genet

Chouilly is located just below Epernay and is one of only 17 Grand Cru municipalities in the Champagne region, and this only for champagnes made from pure Chardonnay (Blanc de Blancs). With over 500 hectares of classified vineyards, it is the largest municipality in the appellation. The winery was founded in the 1960s by Michel Genet. Today it is his 2 sons and daughter, Vincent, Antoine and Agnes, who work the vineyards and led this winery into the 21st century.

Champagne Lamoureux

Just after the 2nd World War, in 1947, grandfather René Lamoureux planted his first vines in Les Riceys, making him the de facto founder of the house. However, it was his son, Jean-Jacques, who further developed this small winery to the next level. Les Riceys belongs to the least known and most secluded part of Champagne, the Côte de Bar. It is situated between Reims (Epernay) and Bourgogne, below the city of Troyes, far from the touristic heart of Champagne where the famous large houses are located. All the more, however, surprising and interesting discoveries can be made here without support of big branding. They count solely on their pure class. Today, son Vivien manages the winery, where Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Pinot Meunier are presented pure and blended, with the same high quality standards for each cuvée. Just about all different types of champagne are represented here and make Champagne Lamoureux an unmissable opportunity for every champagne lover.
