Drop 36
DRAWING IN EUPHORIA
WITH Jeremy Carteret, Maison Glandien & Winery Eymann
In Drop #36, we’re diving deep into the world of Pinot Noir, this time with two winemakers from Burgundy and one exciting new discovery from Germany.
Let’s start with Jérémy Carteret, one of the most interesting young winemakers in Burgundy right now. After spending years working alongside Benjamin Leroux, Jérémy started producing his own wines in tiny quantities, focusing on whole-cluster fermentation, indigenous yeasts and a very gentle approach in the cellar. His wines are known for their incredibly delicate structure, beautiful aromatics and almost weightless character. For this drop, we’re bringing you his Euphoria Rouge 2025, a Pinot Noir that perfectly captures his style.
Next, I’m very happy to introduce Vincent Eymann from the Pfalz to the BTB family. His family has been working organically since the early 1980s, long before it became fashionable, and has followed biodynamic principles for more than two decades. Vincent took over the estate in 2015, with a particular focus on Riesling and Spätburgunder. His approach is rooted in healthy vineyards, spontaneous fermentation and patient ageing. We’re introducing him with a Pinot Noir 2020, a wonderful opportunity to discover a more mature expression of German Pinot Noir.
And finally, Tino Kuban of Maison Glandien is back with something we haven’t seen from him before. Tino has built his reputation on meticulous vineyard work, extremely low yields and a winemaking philosophy that leaves very little room for compromise. This time, we’re introducing a new chapter for Maison Glandien: a Pinot Noir matured for 18 months in 228-liter barrels. A different approach to ageing and a fascinating new direction for the Maison.
LET’S GET LOST IN EUPHORIA.
Euphoria Rouge 2025
JÉRÉMY CARTERET - La Rochepot, Burgundy
Euphoria Rouge 2025 comes predominantly from Les Crucibées, a small southeast-facing parcel in Fussey, in the Hautes-Côtes de Beaune. The vines were planted in 2018 on clay-rich, stony soils, with high trellising and no hedging to encourage natural vine growth. For the 2025 vintage, Jérémy blends 90% Les Crucibées with 10% Bourgogne Rouge from Ladoix.
The grapes are fermented with 100% whole clusters, using indigenous yeasts and gentle punch-downs before being pressed in a traditional vertical press. Jérémy’s approach is all about preserving the purity of the fruit, its natural aromatics and delicate structure.
The result is a Pinot Noir in Jérémy’s signature style: light on its feet, wonderfully fragrant, with an emphasis on freshness, fine tannins and elegance rather than extraction or power.
A beautiful expression of the more delicate side of Burgundy.
L'AMORCE ROUGE 2025
MAISON GLANDIEN - RULLY, BURGUNDY
Quite a few things are changing at Maison Glandien, and this is something I’ve been looking forward to sharing!
Tino Kuban has now taken over all the vineyards behind Maison Glandien, which he farms himself together with his team. This means a complete departure from the original négociant model, with Tino now overseeing everything from the work in the vineyards to the final wine.
But that’s not all. He’s also rethinking the ageing process across the entire range. From now on, all Maison Glandien wines will spend 18 months in barrel, giving them more time to develop and allowing the individual terroirs to express themselves more clearly. The goal is to bring Maison Glandien even closer to the philosophy and precision of Les Jardins Vivants.
And we’re kicking things off at BTB with L’Amorce Rouge 2025, a Pinot Noir from Mercurey, Les Rochelles, in the Côte Chalonnaise. Fermented with 100% whole bunches, the wine reflects Tino’s preference for gentle extraction and a delicate, aromatic expression of Pinot Noir.
L’Amorce translates roughly to the beginning or the spark — a rather fitting name for the first wine we’re introducing from this new chapter.
And trust me, there’s plenty more to come from Maison Glandien!
SONNENBERG PINOT NOIR 2020
WINERY EYMANN - GÖNNHEIM, PALATINATE
And here comes a new face to the BTB family! I’m super happy to introduce Vincent Eymann, a winemaker from Gönnheim in the Pfalz, Germany, who has been quietly producing some seriously impressive wines.
For his BTB debut, we’re bringing you the Sonnenberg Pinot Noir 2020, and this one has a fascinating story.
The Sonnenberg vineyard lies just north of Gönnheim, on deep, limestone-rich loess soils. The vines originate from an old Burgundian sélection massale, planted in the early 1990s. Since 2013, the Sonnenberg has been bottled separately as a single-vineyard wine.
Following fermentation with a varying proportion of whole clusters, the wine spends 16–18 months in French oak barriques and tonneaux before being bottled without filtration.
And the 2020? Think ripe cherries, dark berries, a touch of liquorice, earthy spice and a beautiful smoky character. There’s real concentration here, but also freshness, energy and a firm structure that makes this Pinot Noir particularly interesting with a few years of bottle age.
A mature German Pinot Noir with Burgundian roots, and a fantastic introduction to Vincent Eymann at BTB.
