Inky Malbec (the eponymous Côt) that is much brighter and crunchier than most would expect of the grape. As always with Mikaël's wines, there is a noticeable mineral imprint; that hard-to-define aspect of wet stones or patio paving following rain on a hot day. Find out more.

Bone-dry Touraine Sauvignon Blanc in a classical expression that really harnesses the mineral imprint of the alluvial gravel soils over which it is grown. Steely and precise, with sharp lime citrus. Find out more.

Like all of Mikaël's wines from the dry 2022 vintage, there is a chiselled structure and profound minerality, the vines having reached deep down to the limestone bedrock for nutrients.

Faia brims with crystalline stone fruits that have a concentrated, mouth-coating quality, acidity is tight and the finish leads into a flourish of ginger spice.

Even at full maturity, as here, Grolleau produces light, low alcohol wines with lots of acidity and an earthy quality. The Gamay adds some bright cherry fruits and stony minerality. Lots of freshness this year in this brilliant, quintessential Loire red. Find out more.

Less steely and with softer edges than his more classical staple 'La Pente de Chavigny', this feels open and expressive, but never anything other than laser-beam linear. Juicy green apple, elderflower and ripe pear come together in a salivating meld, with a line of raw lemon citrus cutting it all through - without intervention, none of Mikaël’s whites complete malolactic, giving the wine some good vibrancy and edge.

Another beautiful cuvée from Laurent’s Roche Blanche estate. La Pause is made from 100% Gamay from 50-year-old vines. Wonderfully silky, with an abundance of ripe red fruits, a light spice and a real elegant depth. Find out more.

A serious wine with a silly name - Couilles d'Anes translates as 'donkey balls', a colloquial term coined by the local vigneron to describe the unusual black stones that can be found dotting the vineyard soils in certain locations. A delightfully aromatic vintage, bright cherry and bramble fruits meld with a violet perfume in the glass. Find out more.

As a broad stroke one could describe Les Aussigouins as a more amped-up sister to Faia - the production is the same, it is the qualities in the raw materials that make it unique. The fruit is opluent and richly textured, with beautiful, long acidity that points to this being a wine built to go the distance. Find out more.
