Notes: From one of Patrick’s older plots planted on limestone in Madargue The Pinot is macerated in whole bunches, while fermenting some direct press Chardonnay is added.

St Georges sur Allier - Auvergne
Patrick Bouju is perhaps the reason we import wine. Well one of them anyway.
We met Patrick in 2009 whilst searching for wine in the Auvergne and it was thanks to him that we went to our first natural wine fair in Chateldon and where we met several of the producers we work with today. Now there are hundreds of these events, but back then there were few, and it opened our eyes to not only a new kind of wine but also a new way of drinking wine; one without pretension, perhaps a little more hedonistic, and definitely more fun.
