Château Beaumont Les Pierrières

In 2006 M. Filliatreau, the owner of Château Beaumont Les Pierrières was desperate to get a slightly better price for this wine from the old vine Semillon-Sauvignon produced from a 2 ha plot attached to a property that mainly makes red. He hit on the idea of barrel-fermenting it in the new barrels destined for the red wine. Since it is picked early (in August) it completed its fermentation in wood and was back in tank by the time of the 'décuvage' of the red. Because the barrels were needed for the red, their cost has not been factored in to the price of this fantastic bright and surprisingly complex white, which is amazing value for a barrel-fermented wine.

The Golden Hour

The Golden Hour: A Case of Autumnal Light

As the days shorten and the air grows crisp, there is a magical moment when the world is bathed in a soft, welcoming light. It’s the warm, rich, and inviting glow of a low sun, the comforting flicker of an open fire, a feeling of pure contentment[cite: 107].

We have captured that fleeting, beautiful feeling in our first mixed case from our 2025 'A Colourful Christmas' collection: The Golden Hour[cite: 7, 33]. This selection is a tribute to the ochre and gold palette of late autumn and the prelude to the festive season. It’s a journey through rich, indulgent, and fascinating white, sparkling, and amber wines, curated to bring warmth and elegance to your table[cite: 115].

Perfect for an early festive dinner party or a quiet, cosy evening in, these wines evoke the spirit of the season with every glass[cite: 114]. From the celebratory fizz of a traditional method sparkler to the complex texture of a Georgian amber wine, each bottle has been chosen to tell a part of the story.

Inside The Golden Hour Case:

  • 2 x JEAN-LOUIS DENOIS Méthode Traditionelle Chardonnay-Pinot Noir Brut: Elegant and celebratory, with fine bubbles and notes of crisp apple and toasted brioche – the perfect start to any festive occasion.
  • 2 x 2024 VIOGNIER Domaine les Yeuses: A wonderfully aromatic white, bursting with flavours of apricot, peach, and a hint of honeysuckle, embodying the richness of a golden harvest[cite: 115].
  • 2 x 2023 MÂCON VINZELLES Cave des Grands Crus Blancs: A classic and indulgent Chardonnay from southern Burgundy, offering notes of ripe stone fruit with a creamy, satisfying finish[cite: 115].
  • 2 x 2023 CHÂTEAU BEAUMONT Blanc 'Les Pierrières' Blaye: A crisp, complex, and refreshing Bordeaux blanc that shines with a pale golden hue and vibrant citrus notes.
  • 2 x 2023 GAVI Etichetta Oro Tenuta la Marchesa: The 'Gold Label' Gavi is as delicious as its name suggests. Dry, mineral, and wonderfully fresh, it's a versatile wine for seafood canapés or festive starters.
  • 2 x 2020 TSOLIKOURI Labara Winery: A stunning introduction to the world of amber wines. With its beautiful sunset colour and notes of dried fruit, nuts, and spice, this is a wonderfully textural and intriguing wine for the adventurous palate[cite: 207].

This is the perfect way to stock your cellar for the festive season with a stunning selection of rich whites, saving money on a case that is greater than the sum of its parts[cite: 33, 109].
