Musical chords by a renowned guitarist: Antoine Morinière
With Antoine Morinière, a guitarist as passionate about music as wine, I had fun finding the right musical chords for each wine. Albeniz will go with the lively and fresh side of the Gaillac bubble, Villa-Lobos will come to illustrate the power and roundness of Corsican wine, passing through a geographical agreement between a Banyuls and a Hispanizing room of Albeniz!

The tasting sheets of the Soenologist
Wine #1 : A festive and sparkling bubble to start with
Area : Domaine de Brin (Damien Bonnet, peasant-vigneron and gifted winemaker)
Name: Gaillac (between Albi / Cordes / Gaillac)
It is one of the oldest vineyards in France that spans about 4,000 hectares.
In Gaillac, there is a word that often comes back when it comes to the vineyard: diversity. And the range of wines does not deviate from the rule by offering you an exceptional palette of richness (effervescent, dry, white, red, sailing wines, mellow).
Terror : Very stony clay-calcar soil, east exposure, altitude 260m
Grape(s): 75% Mauzac Rose and 25% Ondenc (Aboriginal vines)

Vintage: 2025
Service: 8-9°
Carafage: not required
Alcohol: 10% – no addition of sugar or yeast.
Description : Freshness, tension and greedyness for this beautiful sparkling ancestral method!
What is the ancestral method: A wine made as in time, with the least human intervention possible. Once winter arrives, the cold ends the first alcoholic fermentation. Then the juice is bottled directly. When the sun returns to the sunny days, the fermentation resumes. That's how the bubbles will be born.
There are no chemicals and no preservatives. Natural sparkling wines are therefore simply sparkling natural wines!
Dress : Slightly cloudy, golden yellow
Nose : The pink Mauzac sings the aromatic wine around the apple and accompanies a magnificent floral flight. Appetizer notes, apple, pear and citrus.
Mouth : The fine bubble sparkles on the lemon with a lot of elegance. Only 10% alcohol for maximum pleasure and crisp. We have almost a sense of salinity, obviously a nice acidity and a lot of freshness.
Music & Wine Agreement : Albeniz – Torre Bermeja (4
It's sparkling, virtuoso and major! It's fresh, you hear the bubble bounce, the effervescent side. A pure musical delight.

Description More commonly called 7 years of age, this Banyuls is more oxidative than traditional Banyuls.
Banyuls are so-called wines « transferred » : i.e. alcohol is added to the must to stop alcoholic fermentation, which helps to keep some of the natural sugar in the grape.
This one is aged in oak (reddening medium) to give a typical oxidative banyuls!
