Appellation Savigny-le-Beune 1er Cru Controllee

The Lavières gets its name from the stone found in the sub-soil, which is covered with a very fine 30cm layer of stony brown earth . This premier cru is very fragrant when young and remains so with age, which is typical of this appellation. It makes a tender, elegant and pleasant wine when young due to its finesse. It gives off several aromas of red fruits and also violet.

Appellation Cotes du Roussillion Controllee

40 - 80 year old vines

So, why the Sorcieres is called the Sorcières (I will try, my english is bad...) : it is because of the "Fées" (the fairies) of Clos des fées. We wanted a word which reminds the fairies and we chose their friends witches! We wanted to stay in the "magic of the wine".

Appellation Bandol Controllee

The red wines of Bandol are renowned for their darkness and density. This wine does not disappoint, one look at it in the glass gives a clear impression of what is to come. The high percentage of Mourvedre is typical for these parts and it is this grape that gives the wine its black, spicy, tannic qualities. There is plenty of dark, rich brooding fruit and heavy dark tannins, but also just a good amount of freshness underlying all this. Perfect accompaniment for game.

Appellation Meursault Controllee

Fergus' red of choice when dining at HQ. This is delightful Pinot Noir and not often seen. Pinot Noir accounts for 4000 cases a year from the appelation which, are split between Meursault Rouge, Blagny (see 1er Cru below) and Volnay.

This example is fleshy, soft and with a pretty perfume.

Vin de Pays de Franche Comte

It is very important to compare this wine to many pinot noirs from the neighbouring region of Burgundy. At this price point it is nearly impossible to find an equivilent wine with such class and depth of flavours. This vintage is just beginning to show some of those really interesting aged notes that makes Pinot so special - whilst the fruit remains pure and elegant.

It may say Vin de Pays on the label - but don't let that fool you.

Appellation Coteaux d’Aix en Provence Controllee

Peter Fischer vinifies his wines in giant Concrete Eggs. In the structure of an egg the molecules do not stop moving, this allows the wine to breathe during fermentation without the use of oak. It improves the evolution of the wine and at the end of the process there is no sediment. This is almost a Bordeaux of Provence, a Big Wine as the name suggests. The fruit is ripe and juicy but the underlying backbone and structure lend it elegance. With Provencal personality on the finish.

Appellation Blagny Premier Cru Controllee

A soft, fleshy, sweet red fruit nose. A very light red in colour but the concentration in the mouth is fantastic. There are gentle floral, almost violets in amongst some of the young fruit and with some slight twiggy tannins through the middle and a hint of liquorice behind this wine seems to travel the whole spectrum of Pinot notes. The finish has more power and shows a good use of secondary oak.
