Marie Baron Bourgueil Rouge 2024

Marie Baron Coteaux du Giennois Blanc is made from 100 percent Sauvignon Blanc.

Coteaux du Giennois is an appellation in the upper Loire Valley, near Sancerre and Pouilly-Fumé. These hillside vineyards benefit from a continental climate with flint and limestone soils that give the wines their distinctive mineral character.

This wine presents a bright pale yellow color with aromas of citrus, white flowers, and flinty minerality. On the palate, it is crisp and vibrant with lively acidity, flavors of grapefruit and lemon, and a refreshing mineral finish.

Excellent with goat cheese, oysters, grilled fish, or fresh salads.

Marie Baron Pouilly Fume is made from 100 percent Sauvignon Blanc.

Pouilly-Fumé is one of the Loire Valley's most prestigious white wine appellations, located on the right bank of the Loire River across from Sancerre. The 'Fumé' in the name refers to the smoky, flinty character imparted by the Kimmeridgian clay and silex (flint) soils.

This wine displays a brilliant pale gold color with intense aromas of citrus, white peach, and the signature gunflint smokiness. On the palate, it is elegant and focused with mineral-driven acidity, flavors of green apple and grapefruit, and a long, precise finish.

Pairs beautifully with shellfish, sushi, grilled fish, or fresh goat cheese like Crottin de Chavignol.

Marie Baron Sancerre Blanc is made from 100 percent Sauvignon Blanc.

Sancerre is one of the most iconic white wine appellations in the world, located in the eastern Loire Valley on steep hillsides overlooking the Loire River. The appellation's Kimmeridgian marl, limestone, and flint soils produce Sauvignon Blanc of exceptional minerality and elegance.

This wine shows a bright, pale straw color with aromas of gooseberry, citrus, and white flowers, underscored by a characteristic chalky minerality. On the palate, it is vibrant and refreshing with crisp acidity, flavors of lime and green apple, and a clean, lingering finish.

Classic pairing with fresh goat cheese (especially Crottin de Chavignol), oysters, grilled fish, or asparagus.

Baron Ermengaud Faugeres Rouge is made from 80% Syrah, 10% Grenache, 5%, Mourvèdre and 5% Carignan.

The Baron Ermengaud cuvée is named after the lord Ermengaud de Fouzilhon. In the 12 century, the Lord gave land, which was located in Laurens Village, to monks, who built a monastic barn. The monks (Benedictine and then Cistercian) used to cultivate the vineyards, using techniques that were quite wise and modern at the time. The people of Laurens enjoyed and benefited from learning their methods.

This Faugeres is dark red with shades of black cherry. A large complexity of aromas allows us to savor a mix of sun fruits and spices. This powerful and full-bodied wine, with a deep consistency, offers an intensity of ripe fruits. It has a long, rich palate on velvety tannins with raised hints of pepper.

Pairs with roast saddle of lamb with juniper berries; peppered venison with pears.
