We love Fanny’s wines and this year is no exception. The wine is both expressive and lively with spicy red fruit notes with excellent underlying structure

Serious Chateauneuf-du-Pape with dark aromas but with a refreshing undertone as well. Energetic black raspberry and cherry cola flavours and a touch of candied lavender and neutral oak

This wine is older than a lot of people you know, yet fuller of life than anyone. Vibrant acidity combined with a broad spectrum of nuts, honeysuckle, flowers, nutmeg, a slight oxidative edge and a savoury everlasting finish. Beat that
A gastronomic power house of a Pinot Gris: fresh but rich, smooth and salty. Aromatic with notes of exotic fruits, ginger, and cedar. Perfect pairing with more spicy dishes, as well as meat when you don't feel like red wine.
From local grape Loin de L'oeil (far from the eye), late harvest and aged in Acacia barrels. Sweet without being sticky and with great freshness, notes of honeysuckle, almonds and tropical fruits. Introduce it to your favourite pâtisseries!

Forget everything you know about Viognier, this is a one of a kind bottle! Jean macerated the Viognier, pressed it with Roussanne skins and aged it in Amphora. Funky is not enough to describe this one: wild and alive, like a 70's rock band
A full bodied white that packs freshness as well. Made from the local Mauzac grape, with aromas of apple, cloves and almonds, making it both powerful and subtle. The aging in acacia barrels brings light buttery aromas and a beautiful structure

Balanced crémant for every occasion with fine bubbles. Elegant yet friendly, with notes of almonds, saffron and sandalwood, coming together with a freshness that is both mineral and salty
