Features

Julien Altaber à grandi en Bourgogne est s'est vite passionné pour le monde agricole et la vigne. Après avoir travaillé deux ans dans une grande maison beaunoise, il arrive chez Dominique Derain, l'un des pionniers du vin nature bourguignon, où il travaille à tous les postes. Poussé par son patron à se lancer à son tour, il crée Sextant en 2007. Il est à la tête de 8 hectares de vigne, mais continue à faire un peu de négoce pour compléter.

Tous les raisins sont issus de vignes cultivées sans désherbant ni produit de synthèse, ce qui demande un gros travail pour Julien et les vignerons qui lui fournissent les raisins!

La vendange qui arrive en cuverie est le résultat de nombreux efforts. Son équilibre naturel lui permet de travailler en cave avec une grande sérénité et beaucoup de confiance. Tous les vins sont vinifiés et élevé sans aucun produit œnologique (ni sulfite) avec très peu d'intervention.

Clin d'oeil est une macération de Chardonnay (80%) pendant une dizaine de jours ) avec un peu (20%) de Gamay de presse directe (donc le jus du Gamay est du jus clair, pas rouge).

Les raisins sont cultivés sur des sols argilo-calcaires. Le vin est élevé en cuves en fibre de verre pendant environ 5 mois pour se débourber.

C'est un bel exemple de vin orange. Il a un goût frais et vif, mais il présente également tout ce que nous aimons dans les vins de contact avec la peau, notamment des tanins doux et intéressants et d'autres polyphénols, et même une petite amertume attrayante en arrière-bouche.

What is an author wine?

These can be so diverse depending on the personality of their sire, that it is easier to define what it is not. An author wine is anything but a standard, stereotypical wine, made to please as many people as possible. It is therefore rarely produced in millions of copies, copying itself from vintage in vintage.

An author wine is therefore a wine that does not look like that of the neighbor. Which from year to year will evolve according to the vagaries of the weather and the mood of the author - the two that can be linked. Because the author does not rely on market studies to carry out his boat. He makes his wine as he feels, as he likes, as he can, sometimes ... and too bad if he does not please everyone.

It is therefore rarely produced in millions of copies, copying itself from vintage in vintage.

This is why author wines are sometimes classified as "table wine" or "France wine". Because the winemaker did not plan the authorized grape variety*, makes the assembly or vinification recommended in the name **. He is often a bit rebellious, our author. But that is why we like it! ... That said, author's wines are not systematically marginal: they are present in most of the appellations, and can be part of the elite of these this***. Because they are not content to have personality: they are good, in addition! With in general aDegree of TorchabilityVery high: we never tire of it at the end of the first sip.

As author's wines are not chaptalized, levied, hacked ... They can have very different profiles depending on the vintage. It is up to us (resellers and consumers) to accept them as they are, and to remain faithful to the producers, because they need us to continue their activity.
