Domaine Morin Langaran, located in the Languedoc near the Bassin de Thau, practices sustainable farming across 60 hectares. They prioritize aroma and freshness preservation by night harvesting and use immediate pressing, cold settling at low temperatures, aging on fine lees with batonnage, and maintaining high CO2 levels for reduced sulphites. Established in 1330, the Morin family, winemakers since the 1800s, took over in 1966. Caroline Morin, the current winemaker, emphasizes the terroir's finesse and minerality in her wines.

4. Gaia Barbelino Monferrato Rosso
Don't mind any dust you might find on this bottle - it's the real deal! This Italian red wine, with its deep ruby color, offers a blend of fresh fruit flavors like cherry, strawberry, and raspberry, balanced with high acidity and medium tannin, making it ideal for Italian dishes. We love the elegance and versatility of Barbera - so food friendly, earthy and easy to love. It comes from an organic estate in Piedmont, Italy, that spans two rolling hills, with half of its 43 hectares dedicated to vines. Absolutely delicious!
