A Case for Beaujolais Nouveau
You may be wondering, Why does La Sœur Cadette make Beaujolais Nouveau when they are based in Vézelay in the north of Burgundy? Well, there are several reasons for this. First, as a winemaker, I have a particular affection for Beaujolais, its wines and especially for its talented winegrowers who, in my opinion, were the true pioneers of natural wines...
Nicolas Maillart: Our Newest Champagne Producer
It had been many years since we introduced you to a new selection of ours from the Champagne region—not for lack of trying! Last year we finally found what we had been looking for in the small Champagne village of Écueil, on the Montagne de Reims, in the cellars of Nicolas Maillart...
Blending Reds, and Generations at VT
“It was our first big decision together. After two or three hours of tasting, everything was done. When you are on the same page about what an ideal red from Vieux Télégraphe should taste like, it’s done. And that was, for me, a great day—maybe the best day of my life.”

Domaine Tempier: the Wine, the Family, the Exuberance
Domaine Tempier is a wine—it is also a family; exuberance and finesse are the traits common to both,” wrote Richard Olney back in 1984. What’s remarkable about this simple yet spot on-observation is how true it rang then, how true it rang forty years prior to that, when Tempier had just released its first wine, and how true it still rings today, forty years later.
