Description
WINEMAKER: Nicolas Réau
REGION: Loire Valley, FR
VARIETY: Melon de Bourgogne
VITICULTURE: Organic/Biodynamic
Nicolas’s love for wine began at a young age, but he first pursued a career as a jazz pianist until he saw an advertisement for a degree in viticulture and oenology and decided to trade scales for secateurs. In 2005 he met and married Sylvie Augereau, the great French wine writer and founder of La Dive Bouteille. She introduced him to the world of French natural wine and its champions—Marcel Lapierre chief amongst them—inspiring Nicolas to begin farming organically and biodynamically and to make wine without artifice. | In 1998 Nicolas took over a 28ha estate in Anjou. After three years of analysis, he culled 23ha, retaining only the 5ha clos. He has since acquired two hectares. Ferments are wild, no adjustments are made, nor does he fine or filter. Sulphur is applied by cuvée and vintage and only at bottling.

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.
