2020 Les Errances Tohu Bohu Petillant Naturel Rose
What's going on here? Tohu Bohu?
What's going on is a zesty natural Pet Nat from a young winemaking couple in Rablay-sur-Layon - a blend of Chenin, Grolleau and some Cabernet Franc which finishes its ferment inside the bottle.
Boisterous natural fun, with just a touch of sugar remaining unferrmented and heaps our crunchy citrus acidity and raspberry candy flavours. Ou est le pique-nique?

Old vine Sauvignon Blanc from Cheverny near the banks of the might Loire. With honeydew melon and tangy citrus flavours, this a riper Sauvignon than the region normally produces, making it super-attractive at first sniff.
There is no oak involved but plenty of lees-stirring and time in bottle pre-release, so there is also texture and length.
A superb all-round people pleaser.

Le Facteur (French for Postman) is the wing of Mathieu Cosme's label that focuses on natural wines, or minimal intervention at the very least. He farms his land in a traditional way, using no herbicides or pesticides and, remarkably, still tilling the vineyard with the help of his horse.
A generous style of Chenin with a breadth of fruit, savoury elements and lively acidity holding it all together.
Classic Chenin from really old vines with universal appeal.

This is a seriously fun Pinot that captures the charm and spirit of the Loire Valley.
Using organic fruit, sustainable farming practices, natural yeasts and minimal intervention, it's a beautiful expression of natural, lo-fi wine from this part of the world.
Think sour cherries and a gentle touch of brambly earth, it's perfect with charcuterie, a platter or hard cheese or any weeknight dinner plan.

A Vin de France wine produced exclusively from Gamay, and sourced from the vineyard being to a friend of the Puzelat brothers in Touraine, that is all organically farmed. The vines are quite young, ranging in age from 5-30+ years-old planted on clay-calcareous soils.
Such a slurpable easy going wine, light fragrant and everything you want in a fresher style Gamay. Juicy and lithe, with lovely tart black and red berries, it’s supple, bright, and really refreshing, a thirst slaking kind of wine.
The wine is fermented whole bunch, allowing the carbonic process to happen naturally, and this is clear to see in the results. The brightness and primary up front juicy fruit character are the hallmarks of this style. Just such an enjoyable light red that exemplifies Glou Glou wines.

Loire Valley Cabernet Franc has the ability to be a lithe and light wine, while at the same time having so much character and intensity to it. The Les Granges from Baudry is just that, it’s the type of bottle that empties in the blink of an eye.
Breathe in the perfume; floral, bright, juicy fruit, fresh-squeezed berries - so juicy, and saliva inducing. On the palate, silky tannins and ripened blackcurrant/blackberry, black pepper and anise (AKA hallmark Franc stuff).
You want to drink this as the sun goes down and the BBQ is firing up - you'll be in for a laid back treat. Maybe put on some Enya, why not?

Do I have to order in dozens? No, please mix it up! You can order wines in any quantity and variation you like. You can order 1 bottle or 50. We challenge you to make the ultimate mixed pack of wine!
Are there volume discounts? No, our pricing is designed to be the best in market already - no marking up and then discounting down! For very large orders (weddings, etc) we are open to negotiating though. Just give us a call.
Do we price match? Yes, within reason. Everyday low & consistent pricing is something we strongly believe in. We want our customers to feel confident they are always getting the best price. If you see a price lower somewhere else let us know and we'll consider matching it. We'll even retrospectively issue you store credit if you have already purchased from us but you see a lower price somewhere later on. Our price match policy can be seen here.
Can coupons and discounts be stacked? No, only one discount or coupon can be applied to an order at once.
I am trying to add more of a wine to my cart but it won’t let me? This means we are running low on stock of that wine. So for example, if the website will only allow you to add 3 bottles and no more, then that is all we have of that particular wine. The good news is we may be able to order more for you. Just contact us on 02 8376 8775 or hello@differentdrop.com and we'll organise the additional quantity for you.
