Only produced in exceptional years from exclusively Grand Cru rated grapes. Rich, biscuity and yeasty, this wine carries the ultimate expression of the house style.

Every bottle is aged for a minimum of 3 years prior to disgorgement. Their Champagnes are crisp, stylish and classic and develop richness with bottle age. This is a terrific value grower Champagne. 80% to Pinot Noir and 20% to Chardonnay.

Vacqueyras Rouge is dark red colour, with hints of deep purple with good clarity and good brightness. The nose is of laurel, rosemary and something fresh, almost thyme, then an explosion of black fruits (blackberry, candied cherry). Light oak adds a perfect complexity. The mouth is powerful, bulky. It is nicely tannic but the tannins are well coated, they give a relief. Serve in 3-5 years on a leg of lamb with crunchy vegetables or a nice piece of beef. Spices will not frighten this wine.

Blended using a secret recipe since 1510, Benedictine is a signature liqueur made using 27 herbs and spices. Perfect neat, over ice or in a cocktail.

Serge Cologne has an exceptional 7.3ha site in Fleurie and has been joined by sons Samuel and Landry. A star of the Beaujolais, these wines drip with sappy, raspberry fruit.

This Beaujolais Villages from Domaine Andre Colonge et Fils is light, fresh and classic. Supple and well-balanced, it has a nose of blackcurrant bud and fresh grapes with crunchy red fruit flavours on the palate.

A pure, pale salmon pink colour with gentle onion skin hues that shine from the glass upon swirling. A fine, delicate nose with floral blossom, peach, fresh citrus, and hints of red fruit lead to a classic fresh and bright palate, a spritely acidity balanced with wild strawberry, raspberry, and stone fruit notes.
