Description
WINEMAKER: Julie Balagny
REGION: Beaujolais, FR
VARIETAL: Gamay
VITICULTURE: Organic
50-60 year old vines grown on pink granite, on a very steep slope. The grapes are cooled for 24 hours and then undergo three weeks of carbonic maceration. Zero additions. The wine was then raised in a mix of tank and used barrels for 10 months, before being blended. Not fined or filtered, and no added SO2 at any stage.
"Cleanest nose of them all so far – an array of red roses, delightful to smell! Fragrant and elegant. Raspberries, cocoa dust and hints of wild herbs. Fine and linear, with clear sweet fruit. Lovely fine tension. Clean, with beautiful palate weight. This is a very cool wine, the best Minouche yet!" - Ryan Larkin

SPÖN PICKS
SPÖN Bottle Shop & Wine Bar: Made for Discovery
A 50-seater wine bar; Inspired by the charming, drink-in bottle shops hidden throughout the cobblestone streets of Europe, explore a rotating world of natural, organic, rare & vintage wines, and craft beers sourced from Australia and across the globe.
Born in Newtown
Nestled in the vibrant heart of Newtown – We created SPÖN as a cozy neighbourhood bottle shop and wine bar that feels relaxed, welcoming and distinctly its own. Creative, a little gritty, a little playful and always full of something new & unexpected — just like Newtown.
A bottle shop with a bar problem.
SPÖN - a discovery-led hybrid bottle-shop/Wine bar experience. Browse the shelves, grab a bottle and drink it at the bar — or pull up a stool and explore a daily rotating board of over 15+ distinct wines being poured by the glass. SPÖN is built around drinking what interests you.
Come curious. Leave with a new favourite.
We don’t tell you what to drink. You don’t need to know your varietals, regions or vintages, and you certainly don’t need to pretend you do. Tell us what you like, hate, what you’ve tried or curious about — we’ll take it from there. Sometimes the best bottle is the one you didn’t know you wanted.
