Christophe Vallet.<br />

The family owns vineyards in Gevrey-Chambertin<br />

including the entire monopole of Clos de la Justice and in<br />

the Grand Cru of Charmes-Chambertin. Vallet Frères also<br />

act as a négociant sourcing the best grapes from growers<br />

in other parts of Burgundy, with whom it has worked<br />

closely for decades.The wines it produces are complex,<br />

fine and authentic examples of Burgundian Pinot Noir and<br />

Chardonnay.<br />

ve<br />

France<br />

Textbook Burgundian Pinot Noir, balanced and elegant.<br />

Earthy, strawberry fruit and a light pepperiness on the<br />

nose. Mouthwatering acidity balances the moderate<br />

gentle ripe tannins and elegant, pure, somewhat savoury<br />

red fruit.<br />

Petit Guiraud, Sauternes | France<br />

While the average production ratio in Bordeaux is one<br />

bottle of wine per vine, Château Guiraud craft only one<br />

glass.<br />

France<br />

That’s some serious concentration and complexity<br />

coming from one single vine. And how do they manage<br />

it? By banishing chemicals that encourage over<br />

production and promoting biodiversity in the vineyard. A<br />

study in 2010 found 635 species of insects and spiders in<br />

their vineyards and in 2011 they became the first Grand<br />

Cru Classé to be certified organic.<br />

Petit Guiraud is the second wine of Château Guiraud,<br />

it has flavours of incredibly fresh fruit: grapefruit,<br />

passion fruit, pineapple. The wine is floral and elegant,<br />

light bodied and easy to drink. Airy, delicate and very<br />

zesty fresh with notes of lemon, dried apricot and<br />

pink grapefruit. This wine is pure indulgence for totally<br />

uninhibited drinking. Classic Sauternes, versatile with<br />

dessert, perfect with salty blue cheese!<br />
