Suggestions of the week

La Grange aux Belles embodies a free and committed vision of wine. Since its beginnings, the estate has traced a singular path, driven by viticulture that respects the living, without chemicals and without inputs. Chaussée Rouge reveals bright fruit, juicy structure and supple tannins. It is a wine of conversations between friends, of meals shared without fuss. Perfect for bruschetta with an apéritif or beef fajitas.

Located in La Morra, between Alba and Barolo, the Grasso family has been cultivating the art of great Piedmontese wines for several generations. This Barbera wine is a fine example of this: A precise and elegant cuvée, made from vines cultivated on the heights of Alba, where the altitude and the clay-limestone soils bring freshness and balance. This supple and fruity red, but not devoid of personality, is perfect to accompany a grilled veal chop or a generous homemade lasagna.

Perched on the sunny heights of Primošten, on the shores of the Adriatic, Vinas Mora embodies a new generation of passionate winemakers. Since 2020, thanks to the support of a local cooperative, Niko, Kreso and Neno have been cultivating vines there with a deep conviction: To produce natural and living wines, faithful to their unique terroir. You must try this blend of black and white grape varieties from vines aged 20 to 100 years old. A digestible red that illustrates all the freshness and minerality of the Dalmatian terroirs.

Transparent as much in its hue as in its fruity and floral profile, this pretty Gamay rosé is in a way a nod to Louis and Lisette, two talented winemakers from the Coopérative des Pierres Dorées. Elegant while displaying persistence and freshness, it is a real favorite as an apéritif, but is a must when lobster is served.

Produced in the Bekaa Valley in Lebanon, this wine deviates from the beaten path with an atypical style. Mainly made with Sauvignon Blanc, it surprises with its slightly oxidative profile, reminiscent at times of certain Jura whites. A full-bodied, complex and singular wine, which deserves to be served with a daring cuisine: Apricot tagine, roasted poultry with sweet spices, mushroom risotto or mature hard cheeses.

Julien Fouet signs a pure and precise white Saumur, where the Chenin expresses itself with righteousness. L'Ardillon is a tense, deeply sapid wine that reflects the freshness of its limestone terroir. Its mouth-watering finish makes it an ideal companion for delicately lemony white fish, warm oysters, grilled asparagus or fresh goat's cheese with herbs.
