Heirloom Vineyards was born in the 2000 vintage, when a young winemaking student caught the attention of an experienced wine judge—an unexpected spark that grew into a shared vision. Together, they made two enduring commitments: to honour the best of old-world tradition and the heritage of their cherished vineyards, and to champion superior clones of each variety planted in the most suitable sites, all while embracing organic farming principles. After seven patient vintages of experimentation, refinement, and unwavering dedication, they finally crafted a wine worthy of being passed on to future generations. This is that wine.

A lifted bouquet of mulberry, cassis, and ripe blackberries opens the nose, followed by shades of dried tobacco leaf and pencil shavings. The palate is marked by a striking balance of dark berry freshness and a meticulously structured tannin frame. Subtle oak notes of sarsaparilla complement bright spearmint accents, all dovetailing seamlessly into a long, sapid finish.

Given this wine’s structure, it shines alongside richly textured, succulent meats. Think pork ribs, a classic Scotch fillet, or a high-quality butcher’s sausage - always a fine match for Cab Sauv. 

Raised amidst the vineyards, Alexandre Favier is part of a long line of winemakers in Châteauneuf-du-Pape. His grandfather, Noël Sabon, hails from one of the region’s most renowned winemaking families. Alexandre began his viticultural studies at the age of fifteen in Orange, completing his exams by 2001. Just a year later, at the age of twenty, he assumed full winemaking responsibilities at Domaine Chante Cigale when his father’s health declined. Today, Domaine Chante Cigale stands as one of the most important family estates in Châteauneuf-du-Pape.

The Cicada Blanc is an unusual yet harmonious blend of Grenache Blanc (40%), Viognier (30%), and Picpoul Blanc (30%). The Grenache Blanc and Picpoul are sourced from clay-limestone soils in Richerenches, Vaucluse, while the Viognier comes from the Northern Rhône. Vinified in stainless steel with a short one-week maceration, the result is an easy-drinking, unoaked French table wine with citrus and pear aromas, a soft, rounded palate, and a silky mineral finish.

Savour this delicious wine with Coconut flavoured Thai and Vietnamese dishes, or as a delicious foil to barbecued or grilled mackerel.

Founded in 1974 by Valentino Migliorini, a Michelin-starred restaurateur with a visionary approach to winemaking, Rocche dei Manzoni quickly became a pioneer in the Langhe. Valentino introduced groundbreaking innovations such as the first Nebbiolo-Barbera blend (Bricco Manzoni), the use of small oak barrels, and traditional method sparkling wines—well ahead of his time. Today, under the direction of his son Rodolfo, the estate continues its legacy of experimentation and precision, producing acclaimed Barolo, innovative blends, and sparkling wines that showcase both tradition and forward-thinking spirit.

The Pianpolvere Soprano Bussia project began in 1998 with the purchase of this historic Monforte d’Alba vineyard. Under Rodolfo's careful stewardship and commitment to the sustainable Green Experience program, the estate crafts two Barolos of authentic character from this single site: Barolo Pianpolvere Soprano Bussia DOCG, first released in 2016 to critical acclaim, and Barolo Pianpolvere Soprano Bussia Riserva DOCG, produced only in exceptional vintages.

Rich and expansive on the nose, with layers of dried flowers, spice, wet earth, and dark chocolate. The palate is powerful yet refined, showing remarkable balance between depth and elegance. Velvety tannins and lively acidity carry the wine with grace, leading to a long, persistent finish that highlights its complexity and finesse - a true expression of Barolo Riserva at its finest.

A must have for every cellar - Expected storage lifetime 35/40 years.

Bodegas y Viñedos Valderiz is rooted in generations of vineyard work by the Esteban family in Roa, at the heart of Ribera del Duero. After years of cultivating vines first tended by their father, Tomás, and grandfather, brothers Juan and Ricardo Esteban transformed the family’s legacy into a modern winery. Founded in 1980 when Tomás dedicated himself fully to viticulture, the estate initially sold its grapes to other producers. By 1997, recognizing the exceptional quality of their fruit, the family began crafting and marketing their own wines. With a focus on drastically reducing yields to enhance character, Valderiz has built its reputation on meticulous vineyard care and a commitment to expressing the region’s terroir.

Primarily Tempranillo with a touch of Albillo for aromatic lift, this flagship wine spends two years in French oak (half new). Plush and velvety, it layers ripe baked cherry and espresso with hints of licorice, spice, and graphite. Concentrated yet balanced by fresh acidity, the fruit is framed by fine oak nuances, leading to a polished, enduring finish.

This wine’s tannins will balance beautifully with slow-cooked, melt-in-your-mouth meats.

The story of Sanlorenzo begins in the late 19th century, when Lorenzo Ferretti settled in Rogarelli, southwest of Montalcino, and started a family that would remain tied to the land for generations. In 1950, his son Guido purchased neighbouring land from the Argiano estate, naming it SanLorenzo in his grandfather’s honour. Life in the countryside was challenging, but Guido’s son Bramante and his wife Adele chose to stay, sustaining the farm through livestock, olive trees, and a small vineyard for family use. A turning point came in the 1970s, when Fiorella, Bramante’s daughter, and her husband Paolo planted new vineyards alongside modern livestock operations, selling grapes to other wineries. In 1997, their son Luciano returned to SanLorenzo, inspired by Montalcino’s wine boom, and transformed the farm into a dedicated winery. Five hectares of vineyards were planted, the first vintage was released in 2003, and the family legacy continues today under the stewardship of Luciano and his sister Luciana.

From the best of SanLorenzo’s grapes and the perfect blend of land, vine and winery comes Brunello di Montalcino; great elegance and intensity capable of bringing out the best in itself over time. Vinified in steel casks, it's then aged in wooden casks for more than 2 years and then bottled and left to rest for another 4 months. The 2020 offers a complex bouquet of dried flowers, spices, and ripe fruit, with a deep garnet colour, firm yet refined tannins, and a long, satisfying finish. 

Pairs beautifully with game, Fiorentina and Tagliata steaks, as well as aged pecorino cheese.

Rich & Elegant

Located along the edge of the Haut Medoc and at the very beginning of the Margaux appellation, Château Laronde-Desormes shows exceptional character beyond its simple “Bordeaux Supérieur” appellation. Harvested at extremely low yields, the resulting wine is full of finesse and elegance, with well-balanced bright fruit and a long, satisfying finish.  A concentrated blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Petit Verdot, it tastes more like one of its more costly Margaux neighbors than a humble Bordeaux rouge.

The wood-aged wine's fruit is developing along with ripe tannins. It has a touch of spice and black-currant flavors. It is an attractive wine, ready from 2025.
The Laronde Desormes is especially deep in color, hauntingly aromatic, and packed with blackberry and cassis fruit as well as plenty of ample ripe tannins.

Fine red Bordeaux like the Château Laronde Desormes is a versatile wine that pairs beautifully with poultry, red meats, rich sauces, and game—think duck, pheasant, quail—or dishes like Sautéed Veal Medallions, Filet Mignon with shiitake mushrooms, or Chicken Fricassee. It also complements soft cow’s-milk cheeses (Gouda, Morbier, Muenster, Port Salut) and shines when served alongside simple, fresh, high-quality ingredients.

Rich & Spicy

The origin of Château Lamartine goes back to 1883, when Lise and Benjamin’s great grand father acquired a piece of land and started to farm grapes and sell wine in barrels. The winery holds the 'Haute Valeur Environnementale' certificate in sustainability, and are right now in their third year of organic conversion.

The Cahors AOP is right in between the Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean sea. We could say that it’s the heart of the South West. Due to its geographic situation, the appellation has a particular microclimate, which is perfect for Malbec.

This is a rich wine with powerful tannins. It has ripe dark blue and black fruit notes with a touch of vanilla.  While the tannins are full the wine has a great acid backbone to maintain the structure.

This is a top value, structured and succulent red that is ready to sip alongside some salty, fatty protein.

Floral & Mineral

The Puiggros family has been producing wines from their own vineyards in Odena since 1843 for friends and family, however their wines have only been available commercially since 2008. The family came to realize that their traditional techniques and special terroir were something worth sharing with the rest of the world.

Signes del Priorat is Puiggros' first experience in the Priorat. A very limited edition of 600 bottles, made exclusively with Carinyena grapes planted on the steep slopes of the Porrera area. The slate soil on the slopes is known as llicorella ("licorice," due to its dark color) and is the main feature of the soil's terroir and the success of its native grapes.

The region's infertile soil imparts a characteristic minerality to the wine. On the nose, the wine has aromas of lavender and eucalyptus, that mingle with hints of candied fruit, rosemary, caramel and liquorice. Many of the vines harvested for this wine are old and produce low yields, which contributes to the wine's intensity on the palate.

Pair this wine with grilled meats or vegetables, something that will stand up to the tannins in the wine is key here. Avoid chili heat, as alcohol content enhances these flavours.
