Drop 16 – I am wachting you!
Romain comes from a long-established winegrowing family in Chorey-les-Beaune, rooted in the village for generations. His path started early: as a teenager, he learned to vinify alongside his father, who spent over 30 years as maître de chai at Louis Latour in Beaune. His first bottled vintage was 2005 — a great year in Burgundy and a defining moment for him.
Drop 15 – Breaking Burgundy’s Comfort Zone
In the wind-swept plains of the southern Pfalz, in Zeiskam, Lukas Hammelmann is quietly rewriting what this flat landscape can deliver. He stayed where others saw only potatoes and onions, betting on character over reputation. His tiny estate is built around a few parcels—loess, limestone, sandstone, old terraces, even near-century-old vines—farmed organically, no shortcuts. The wines are tense, precise, and unapologetic, more about attention than charm. Proof that the most electric bottles can come from the most overlooked places.
Drop 14 – SAME GRAVITY. DIFFERENT ALTITUDE
In the Côte des Bar, Thibault and Alizée farm a single family hectare in Celles-sur-Ource, launching their own label in 2019. Biodynamics, handwork and wild fermentations guide everything; old barrels and zero dosage keep the wines raw and honest. Tiny yields and even tinier volumes make their Champagne feel deeply personal — precise, bright and shaped by the quiet devotion behind every bottle.
Drop 13 – R | R RUTHLESSLY REMARKABLE
La Rogerie is a young, family-run Champagne house founded by Justine Boxler and François Petit, connecting Alsatian roots with the chalky terroirs of Avize, Oger, and Cramant. They farm organically and focus on living soils, crafting Champagnes that are elegant, mineral, and pure. Their wines express both tradition and a fresh, modern sensibility — precise, balanced, and deeply tied to place.
Drop 12 – Les 3 Amis
Jérémy Carteret grew up surrounded by vineyards and worked with respected names such as Benjamin Leroux and Domaine du Comte Armand before starting his own project in the Hautes-Côtes de Beaune. His approach is minimalist: whole-cluster fermentations, native yeasts, and no additives. His wines, like his Hautes-Côtes de Beaune Euphoria, show purity and freshness while keeping a clear Burgundian identity.
Drop 11 – Outside
Alessandro Salvano is a maverick in the world of Piedmontese winemaking, a region steeped in tradition yet often bound by rules. Salvano doesn’t just follow the path of Barolo — he steps outside of it. His vineyard, located just outside the official Barolo zone, sits on the same prestigious soils, but the philosophy is a
Drop 10 – Mixed martial arts
Martial Angeli continues the legacy of his father, Mark Angeli, at La Ferme de la Sansonnière in Anjou — one of the pioneering estates for biodynamic wine in the Loire. With deep respect for nature and zero compromise on purity, Martial crafts intense, soulful wines from Chenin Blanc, Grolleau, and Cabernet Franc.
Drop 9 – fifty shades of pinot
Tino Kuban is a shining example of the new wave in Burgundian natural winemaking, combining tradition with fearless innovation. His approach is rooted in biodynamic farming and minimal intervention, crafting wines that are raw, authentic, and a true reflection of their terroir. Unlike many, Kuban works exclusively with
Drop 8- L’Odyssee petillante
Romain et Thomas Henin are part of a new generation reshaping Champagne from the inside out. After gaining experience with Sébastien Mouzon and Henri Giraud, Romain took over his family’s domaine in Aÿ in 2021, bringing with him a fresh, uncompromising vision. The estate, originally founded by their father Pascal Hénin, spans just 1.2 hectares across Grand and Premier Cru vineyards in Aÿ, Chouilly, Mareuil-sur-Aÿ, Dizy, and the Marne Valley.
Drop 7 – L’òrigine Box
We’re back with another amazing drop in collaboration with Tino Kuban – and it’s a special one. For Drop No. 7, we’re introducing the Maison Glandien “L’Origine” Box, featuring three wines that capture Tino’s precision, purity, and deep connection to Burgundy.
