"Where it all started with our adventure, our baby Joujou, made from old gamay vines from next to our house where we let our sheep and pigs graze and work during the wintertime. Lots of manual labour from ourselfs during the rest of the year, but this turns out to some great grapes. Terroir is a mix of decomposed granite, quartz and clay. Yield it not that high (like the rest of our plots and gives us only around 18Hl/ha). After taking the grapes from the land it will undergo a semi carbonic in concrete and stainless steel with a bit direct press gamay. After pressing we put it together in one big fiberglass dome where the wine has still room to dance and finish the fermentation. Then aged for more than 10 months before bottling in the same dome. Crazy energetic wine with a great acidity."

"Made from a small selection from our ‘vieilles vignes’ Gamay grapes next to our house, with a slightly different vinification: open-top fermentation and partial aging in a old Burgundy barrique. This gives Nuit Noires its own identity and keeping a playful spirit."

"For quite a bit Ousia is part of the family range of Clos Bateau. One of the creative wines we decided to make. We like to brainstorm and come up with different ideas. Not only what the taste can be like but also the visual aspect. Then the idea of Ousia came to us, we had this idea of freshness and fruitiness of the direct press from the gamay and chardonnay, but we also wanted to have a little bit more structure to it. That’s when we decided to do a press direct of gamay and chardonnay and include whole bunch chardonnay in the tank to have a small maceration. It turned out to be a perfect marriage."

"From the lieu-dit Le Pavé on the eastern slopes of Mount Brouilly. The vineyard is planted on volcanic bluestone, giving the wine a very terroir-driven identity. Resulting this cuvée is overall more rustic, balancing ripeness with freshness. After nearly two weeks of maceration, the wine was aged used Burgundy barriques."

"When following a path in our vineyard down to a small river which crosses our meadow, we come at this mystical plot of Chardonnay. A plot surrounded by a lot of very old oak trees, blackberries, blackthorn and more and with a terroir specifically with a lot of clay. This is great for biodiversity: say hello to deers, hares and more but also a great breeding area for flavescence doree (which has killed with their virus now almost 1/3 of our plot). Unfortunatly with less vines this year, we hope to have it under control in a couple of years and do some replantation on the empty spots. With a press direct, vinified in amphore and a small part on a used barrel it’s became this mystical wine, just like the plot itself."

"In 2020 we did a test with a 2 year maceration of chardonnay to see the flow of the wine with quit long maceration. This is something we do by feeling, curiosity and testing to see what will be the right amount of time. That’s why we decided the last 2 years to have a bit longer maceration for Aptemiz. For 23 it turned out the magical 10 months. The grapes where destemmed by hand on a wooden board and after vinified and aged on amphora." Production of just 670 bottles

"When we look from our house to the mountain direction Regnie-Durette, there is a parcel of almost a half hectare that belongs to us. It’s quite funny because half of it is Regnie and the other side is Lantignie. Both villages calls it Croix Pennet, but only Lantignié uses 2 times the n. The exposition is south facing and it’s full of big granite rocks. It’s a terroir specific and every year this parcellaire wine have this Croix Pen(n)et taste which is hard to explain. We do some longer macerations, and we age 70% on Burgundy barrels."

"Since we decided in 2022 to dig 2 Georgian Qvevri’s in our garden, we knew we had to do something special with it. After our experiments with different grapes and periods of maceration it was clear for us. We love the grape Pinot Noir and decide to do very long macerations with it and since vintage ’22 our cuvée Sang de Terre was born. After 10 months maceration we decided it was ready to press. With a small bucket we must take out all the grapes and we press it with our wooden press. After pressing the wine takes a nap of 1,5 month in barrel and it was time to bottle!"

Naturellement Petillant. Press direct Gamay minimum 48 months aged on the lees before disgorgement. Non dosage.

"A playful wink to our Burgundy neighbors, born from a craving for a voluptuous, creamy white. No grapes from Burgundy, but Chardonnay from the Beaujolais, pressed directly, vinified and aged in used Burgundy barriques. An unexpected encounter between regions, resulting in a rare and singular cuvée."
