Môl 2021 is a blend of 6 grape varieties, mainly from the south of France. Syrah, Carignan, Grenache, Cinsault, Muscat d’Alexandrie and Gamay are all vinified separately, aged in fiberglass and steel tanks, and blended together before bottling. This vintage has plenty of dark fruit to it; blackcurrant and blackberries meet with a note of cedarwood and a touch of herbs. Light yet complex, it’s best drunk within a couple of hours for optimal freshness. A great match for spare ribs with barbecue sauce. Enjoy around 14°.
Weiss ’22 is a blend of 7 grape varieties: Müller Thurgeau, Bacchus, Scheurebe, Huxel, Würzer, Faber and Riesling, harvested from different parcels throughout the village on a mixture of sand and limestone. The aromatic varieties were macerated and the remaining direct pressed, before ageing in oak barrels for one year. A fresh wine with good acidity. Drink chilled alongside freshly podded peas, asparagus and elderflower.
Nez Ô Bulles 2023 is the first pétillant naturel from O2Y, a 50/50 blend of Marsanne and Roussanne from Belleville-en-Beaujolais. Roussanne is named after the colour of its ripened, reddish-gold grapes, from the French roux meaning russet. A key grape for white blends in northern Rhône and traditionally blended with Marsanne, although typically a higher proportion of Marsanne is used.
