François de Nicolay

François de Nicolay, manager of the Chandon de Briailles family estate in Savigny-Lès-Beaune, decided in the early 2000s to build a small “winemaker – producer – bottler” trading house. According to him, you can only make good wines with good raisins, a simple and pure evidence for François.

The philosophy of the house is to produce wines without artifice, without additives, from organic and/or biodynamic grapes cultivation, or in the process of transition to organic cultivation.

He ensures that the supplies of grapes, must or wine are of optimal quality, this is why he can afford to make pure wines without inputs. Thus, you will find at Maison François de Nicolay some cuvées made without added sulphites and other cuvées with an extremely low dose of sulphur.

The aging takes place in an old cellar in Savigny-Lès-Beaune, without pumping, filtration or fining and bottling is done by hand directly from the barrel.
It is an artisanal work which allows not to add sulfur and which provides the wine with all its original freshness. Natural and living wines, inventors with a master hand.

« J’aime les vins qui vibrent, qui donnent du plaisir et de l’envie. » François de Nicolay

Mas Cal Demoura

After a first professional life in the world of finance in Paris, Vincent and Isabelle Goumard decide to quit everything and take over a few hectares of vines from Mas Jullien. They learned from their role model and mentor, Olivier Jullien in the heart of the Terrasses du Larzac.

The couple very quickly showed the extent of their talent, with a very detailed understanding of their plots and geological variations, a respect for plants and high wine-growing standards. The estate, which now has 16 hectares of vines, is cultivated like a garden using certified organic and biodynamic agriculture.

The result is dazzling, with cuvées characterized by their terroirs, long in the mouth, explosive, aromatic and mineral. Cal Demoura, which means “you have to stay” in Occitan, is a symbol of the magnetism of a great terroir. There are happy conversions, especially those motivated by a passion.

The RVF has ranked it among the “Great reference estates” and Bettane & Desseauve among the “very high quality producers who are the glory of the French vineyard”. Recognition that soon crowns the twenty years of a property that sits at the top of Languedoc, alongside Mas Daumas Gassac, Granges de Pères, Mas Jullien, Domaine Peyre Rose and many other names that make you dream.

Le Domaine Famille Dupont s’étend sur 30 hectares de vergers en Normandie, au coeur du Pays d’Auge. L’activité du domaine est la production de cidres, de pommeau et de calvados.

Depuis plus de 25 ans, le Domaine s’est résolument engagé dans une démarche de qualité. En s’inspirant des meilleures techniques utilisées pour le cognac et les grands crus, Etienne Dupont a étudié, expérimenté, affiné ses techniques d’élaboration pour atteindre le niveau d’élégance et d’expression des meilleurs vins.

Certaines de ces techniques, comme le triage manuel des pommes ou encore le travail avec un oenologue, ne sont que rarement rencontrées dans l’élaboration du cidre. Comme pour le vin, la qualité des pommes reste l’étape préliminaire essentielle. La cidrification ne fait ensuite qu’exalter l’expression de la pomme et de son terroir.
