Description
WINEMAKER: Corinne Comme
REGION: Bordeaux, FR
VARIETY: Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon, Petit Verdot
VITICULTURE: Certified Organic/Biodynamic
Corinne and Jean-Michel capture the essence of biodynamic fruits by delicate extraction (pigeage by hand, no remontage), and cuve-ageing in concrete vats – no oak whatsoever, "to avoid any 'maquillage', enhance purity, and preserve our forests!". From 2020 the couple has decided to make only one red cuvée (Petit Champ and Grand Vin cuvées are no more) since the different vineyards are now of age. The fruit is ripe, natural, with dark cherry, fruits of the forest, hints of spice, and dark chocolate. It has a lovely play on the palate with great freshness and very finely tuned, ripe tannins. A brilliant wine of astonishing value.
Champ des Treilles is the small domaine run by Corinne and Jean-Michel Comme on the easterly edge of Bordeaux in Sainte-Foy. Corrine took the lead role of the domaine whilst Jean-Michel remained the technical director of Pontet-Canet in Pauillac, a position he held for 31 years until 2020. Biodynamic specialists, their 10 hectares of high density planted vines produce vibrant fruit rich wines from one of Bordeaux's lesser appellations.

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.
