[New In] La Chaume des Lies

Lothar Galloo and Margaux Rivaux, a couple who first crossed paths while working for Pierre Fenals at Maison En Belles Lies in 2018, made the decision to begin their own winemaking journey in the revered land of Burgundy. Driven by their shared dream, they set out to establish their very own winery.

After an extensive search, their quest led them to settle in the picturesque commune of Baubigny, nestled just south of Saint-Romain. Here, they were fortunate to secure a spacious underground cellar at an affordable price, providing them with the ideal setting for their aspirations.

Their venture began by renting 2.5 hectares of parcels across Saint-Aubin, Auxey-Duresses, Bouzeron, Hautes-Côtes de Beaune, and 2 hectares in Beaujolais. Margaux, having gained valuable experience working alongside Pierre in biodynamic practices since 2016, and Lothar, enriched by his previous experiences with Bruno Schueller in Alsace and Didier Barral in the Languedoc, not to mention his upbringing in an organic vegetable-growing family, possessed the knowledge and commitment to cultivate their vineyards without the use of herbicides, pesticides, or synthetic chemicals. Every operation was meticulously carried out in accordance with the lunar calendar.

Within the cellar, Lothar and Margaux sought to minimize intervention, allowing the vintage and unique terroir of each plot to eloquently express themselves. Their approach was characterized by precision, harmony, and a commitment to authenticity. All their wines are unfined and unfiltered, with only a minimal amount of sulphites added just prior to bottling.

The results of their endeavour have been nothing short of remarkable for a young winery. Much like the couple themselves, Margaux exudes vibrant energy, while Lothar maintains a calm and contemplative demeanour. This dynamic chemistry is beautifully reflected in their wines, which captivate the senses with their exceptional craftsmanship and distinctive character.

🟡Bouzeron 2022
🔴Coteaux Bourguignons 2022

[New In] Maison Alain Brune

The term ‘Hidden Gem’ has been overly abused when it comes to selling wines. Whenever a new name emerges from Burgundy, it automatically earns the label of a hidden gem. However, we have indeed discovered a true hidden gem, one that is well-hidden and of top-notch quality.

Originally from Jura, Alain Brune’s passion for wine began at a young age. He started working in the vineyards for Pierre Overnoy, a living legend in Jura, when he was just 14 years old. After spending years in the vineyards and cellars, his love for wine led him to Burgundy in 1989.

Initially working in Morey Saint Denis at Guy Coquard’s estate, he eventually began making wine for himself as a hobby and for pleasure. Impressed by the quality of his wines, his friends encouraged him to turn his hobby into a business. In 1997, he established a negoce to meet the growing demand from friends and himself.

Now based in Nuits-Saint-Georges, all of his wines undergo 18 months of ageing in old barrels with minimal intervention. They are fermented in 100% whole bunch with natural yeast, remain unfined and unfiltered, are never chaptalized, and only receive a minimal amount of sulfites at the bottling stage. Production is limited, with typically no more than three barrels of Village or Grand Cru appellation wines produced each year.

Due to his unique production methods, most of his wines were consumed by Alain, his friends, and the occasional tourist. Consequently, his wines remained undiscovered and were not exported for a significant period of time. Whenever he has time, he takes care of his garden which gives him fruits and vegetables, living a peaceful and tranquil life.

We are honoured to be Alain’s first importer and to introduce you to this genuine ‘Hidden Gem’.

[New In] Domaine Jean-Marie Berrux

Based in Meursault, Burgundy, Jean-Marie Berrux has been cultivating and vinifying his 1.5 hectares of vines in Puligny-Montrachet for over 15 years. Originally from Savoie, Jean-Marie first worked in advertising in Paris until he discovered his dream and desire, leading him back to the vineyards. He then received training in viticulture and oenology in Beaune and decided to adopt a biodynamic approach to winemaking which is also done without any inputs, and his first vintage was born in 2004.

Despite working with only a small area, Jean-Marie is able to focus on every detail and work with precision. He constantly conducts tests and adjustments, carefully monitoring fermentations in each barrel. This is why he chooses to work with barrels that are not completely cleaned or disinfected with sulfur, allowing remnants of lees from previous vintages to remain.

The cellar, located beneath his house in Meursault, allows him to avoid mediocre results at all costs. He is always willing to work on Saturdays and Sundays if it means improving certain aspects. As he ages, his dedication and interest deepen, along with his attention to detail. Every year, he observes improvements, achieving greater precision.

With the small volumes produced and the meticulous attention he devotes to every detail, Jean-Marie brings forth sublime wines that continuously improve over time. His wines have become a benchmark for the finest natural Burgundy wines, and he himself is highly respected within the community of artisan winemakers.

[New In] Aymé Vadim

Vadim Sidorovitch’s scientific research and his passion for wine have converged to create a unique approach to winemaking. As a trained molecular biologist with a deep understanding of yeast genetics, Vadim brings a scientific perspective to the art of crafting wines.

The meticulous double-sorted organic or biodynamic grapes from exceptional vineyards reflects Vadim’s commitment to quality. Only the finest fruit is used for his wines. His minimal intervention principles and the use of native yeasts allows the natural flavors and aromas of the grapes to shine through.

One of the distinguishing features of Vadim’s winemaking process is the extensive barrel aging. His wines, especially the Grand Crus, spend a significant amount of time in old barrels, often exceeding six years (starting from vintage 2016). This extended aging period allows the wines to develop complex flavors and aromas, resulting in a harmonious and mature profile.

Vadim’s wines are unfined and unfiltered, with no addition of sulfites during fermentation. Laboratory analysis has shown that the sulfite levels in his cuvées are below the measurable threshold, essentially indicating no measurable sulfites present.

With such limited production, each cuvée from Aymé Vadim represents a rare and exclusive offering. The attention to detail, from the hand-bottling to the careful timing aligned with celestial phasings and atmospheric pressure, further highlights Vadim’s devotion to his craft.

The wines crafted by Vadim Sidorovitch embody the intersection of scientific precision and the artistry of winemaking. They offer a unique tasting experience, showcasing the terroir of Burgundy while reflecting Vadim’s distinctive touch and approach to vineyard management and winemaking.

We are extremely thankful to be their importer in Hong Kong.

The wines are only available on request.

Arrived🔥 Antoine Sunier 2022

Precise and elegant, fresh and lively, well balanced between aromatic bouquets and a detailed terroir-driven palate. Calling them well-made is an understatement!

The 22s have lighter extraction than the previous vintages, serving them chilled and we find them incredibly enjoyable!

We don’t know. But do we love them? Absolutely!

[New In] Domaine Cyprien Lireux

At 24 years old, the business school graduate Cyprien Lireux senses a deep feeling of missing out on something in his life. His obsession in mind: to return to what has fascinated him and driven him since childhood, working with the land in his hometown, Normandy, France.

Etienne Fournet, the cellar master of Domaine des Cinq Autels, turns Cyprien's dream into a reality while passing on his passion to him. It will be cider – something Cyprien had already experimented with alongside his father and grandfather – and it feels like the obvious choice.

His closeness to nature, the terroir, and tradition shape his work with a philosophical approach.

The apples scattered throughout the Pays d'Auge region. Manual harvest, untreated traditional high-stem orchards. Cyprien matures his apples for a month after harvest to achieve optimal maturity, reduce nitrogen levels, turn fruit starch into sugar, and develop some natural yeast!

In the cellar, long maturation in wooden vats before pressing, with slow fermentation with native yeasts to fully express the aromatic potential of the fruits. Natural carbonation, and of course, no added sulfites or other additives. His passion does not stop him from making only Cider, but also Perry and other co-fermented wines.

Thus, these gathered fruits continue to stay alive and testify in bottles of the heritage left by their ancestors. Cyprien is convinced that one hand, there is a vintage effect on the fruits, and the other hand, that Cider and Perry can age like fine wines. His cuvées are all vintage-dated.

These are something that wine lovers should not miss!
