Zéphyr is named for the soft western wind—gentle, invisible, yet capable of shaping everything it touches. There’s a similar feeling in the glass here: quiet power, fine detail, and a freshness that seems to move through the wine rather than sit on top of it.

From a carefully selected parcel in the Loire Valley, this is a pure expression of Melon de Bourgogne, drawn from 40-year-old vines rooted deeply in schist and saline soils. At Domaine Les Hautes Noëlles, the approach is patient and instinctive—hand harvesting with strict selection, spontaneous fermentation using indigenous yeasts, and a long 24-month élevage in underground tanks. Nothing is rushed, clarified, or overly corrected; instead, the wine is allowed to settle into itself.

In the glass, Zéphyr opens with delicate aromas of white fruit and a subtle almond note—restrained, but inviting. The palate builds with more presence: structure and volume supported by a clear mineral backbone, shaped by the schist-rich terroir and a saline edge that brings definition and lift. Beneath this tension, there’s a gentle, almost luscious texture that keeps the wine from ever feeling austere.

Stony, precise, and quietly layered, this is a wine that speaks in detail rather than volume—refined, expressive, and deeply rooted in place.

Some information about your order

Please let us know if you would like a specific note included with your order. We tend to wrap all bottles in paper and reuse wine cases for shipping to keep our carbon footprint low.
Shipping should be automatically adjusted depending on your postcode. Free delivery covers all Liverpool postcodes, and the following Cheshire postcodes: CH41-49, CH60-63. Find out more on our Deliveries page.
We will look to have your delivery with you within 3 working days of receiving the order but please ask if you need it by a certain date and we'll do our best.
We will endeavour to deliver vintages as advertised but they often change faster than we can update (we're pretty slow). So, again, it may be wise to confirm before ordering if you're in need of something particular. Please note: Some bottle images may not show the current vintage.
Surcharges often apply to deliveries outside mainland England so wise to confirm before you order. Indeed, Northern Ireland is beyond us unless shipping charges agreed beforehand.
If something is wrong with your order or it's not what you expected, please get in touch and we'll sort it out. We'll look to rectify any mistakes where possible.
