Six red wines perfect for the coming of spring:

Le Raisin a Plume, Patis Des Rosiers 2022

100% Gamay from the mineral soils of Ancenis. Given around 15 days on the skins whole bunch, before ageing in fibreglass. Lush with silky fruit, but with a lovely tension and backbone to it. 

Garo'vin, Lulu Berlue 2022

A delight to have this charming red wine back in stock. Cabernet Franc & Grolleau Noir, given a carbonic maceration for a couple of weeks, before pressing off and ageing in cuve. Bright with dark fruit, this is a brilliant bistro wine, nimble, lithe and perfect served with a light chill. 

Simon Rouillard, Laisse Aller, C'est Un Valse 2021

Grolleau noir 60% and Pinot noir 40%, both from the Fresche estate in La Pommeraye (49). Christine and Alain Boré have been growing their vines organically since 2000. 12 Days of maceration in whole bunches, light extraction with feet. This has lovely crunchy black fruit, with the bright Pinot Noir shining through the most. 

Mas De L'Escarida, Fai Virar 'Rose' 2022

100% Gamay. This is made from only the free run juice of both his young and old fine Gamay. Aged in tank, as always it has beautiful delicate aromatics and a structure between dark rose and light red. Charged with bright red fruit, however you categorise  it's ideal spring drinking. 

La Ferme Du Cade, Prime 2023

Blend of Cinsault, Clairette Rose & Blanc. Lighter than last year, this has a beautifully aromatic nose, a slightly spritz and lovely acidity. The perfect thing to lift from the winter gloom. Best served chilled. 

Robin Goutallier, 36 Fois Le Mise 2022

100% Gamay, from Robin’s highest parcel, above the 60% De Velours, at 500m altitude on granite soils, that he has recently acquired. He gave the grapes a gentle 10 day maceration whole bunch before pressing into fibreglass.
