Clos Haut-Peyraguey

"The uncompromising pursuit of excellence has always been the watchword of this wonderful adventure and the pleasure that is mine: producing Great Wines and beautiful emotions." – Bernard Magrez.

Bernard Magrez is the story of a passionate, self-taught visionary who resolved from the very beginning to never give up. Beginning in adversity at 13, he worked his way from a vocational apprenticeship to the heights of the Bordeaux wine world, building a spirits empire along the way, with William Peel Scotch Whisky rising to become the undisputed leader in France.

In the 1980s, he returned to his true passion, acquiring his first Cru Classé, Château Pape Clément, the first of what would become four prestigious Grands Crus Classés and 42 vineyards across 9 countries.

Sitting at the highest point of the plateau in the commune de Bonnes en Sauternes, at the heart of the Premiers Crus Classés, the vineyard of Clos Haut-Peyraguey has survived the centuries since its first harvest in 1618. Rooted in a marriage of unique terroir, climate, and ancestral know-how, the estate produces a symphony of excellence, the prestigious golden wine for which it is renowned. When classified in 1855, it was known as Château Peyraguey, before the estate was divided in two; the highest land atop the hill of Bommes became Clos Haut-Peyraguey.

In 2012, Bernard Magrez acquired Clos Haut-Peyraguey and set about building its international reputation, meticulously tending the vines in the tradition of the estate while embracing modern innovation. With a commitment to sustainable agriculture, the fruit is harvested by hand in several passes, selecting only the grapes with the finest sugar and aroma concentrations.

Petit Sauvage

Pierre Caizergues and Antonin Bonnet first crossed paths in New York on July 4th, 2010, bonding over their shared roots in the South of France, Pierre from AOP Malepère and Antonin from AOP Terrasses du Larzac, both with deep family ties to local viticulture. A decade later, they turned that connection into Pierre & Antonin, a wine house built around a bold, creative vision: producing natural, accessible "vins d'auteur" with no chemicals, no added sulfites, and no compromises.

Their wines are made exclusively from resistant grape varieties, natural crosses between European and American vines that thrive with minimal intervention, and vinified using only indigenous yeasts.

Their commitment to sustainability runs through every detail of the operation. Bottles are among the lightest available and sourced within 80 km of the vineyard, corks come from Roussillon forests, natural wax replaces aluminum capsules, and labels are made from recycled fibers like sugarcane, hemp, and flax. From vine to packaging, Pierre & Antonin reflects a philosophy that is as eco-conscious as it is uncompromising in craft.

Pierre & Antonin offers a vibrant range of natural wines spanning three colors: red, white, and orange. For those who crave lively, expressive profiles, their Petit Sauvage collection is the perfect introduction:

  • Petit Sauvage Red: Crafted from Cabernet Cortis, harvested at peak ripeness, and vinified whole-cluster without destemming or crushing.
  • Petit Sauvage Orange: Produced from Souvignier Gris, undergoing an 11-day skin-contact (pellicular) maceration, similarly left whole-cluster to extract rich texture and color.
  • Petit Sauvage Blanc: Also made from Souvignier Gris, these grapes are harvested at ideal maturity and immediately cold-pressed to preserve the fruit's brilliant radiance.

The Petit Sauvage Blanc also serves as the foundation for their sparkling iteration. By bottling the fermenting wine without any added sugars or sulfites, the ambient warmth allows the alcoholic fermentation to finish safely inside the bottle. The trapped carbon dioxide creates the beautiful, natural effervescence of a Pét-Nat (Pétillant Naturel).

Nature's Revenge

Pierre Caizergues and Antonin Bonnet first crossed paths in New York on July 4th, 2010, bonding over their shared roots in the South of France, Pierre from AOP Malepère and Antonin from AOP Terrasses du Larzac, both with deep family ties to local viticulture. A decade later, they turned that connection into Pierre & Antonin, a wine house built around a bold, creative vision: producing natural, accessible "vins d'auteur" with no chemicals, no added sulfites, and no compromises.

Their commitment to sustainability runs through every detail of the operation. Bottles are among the lightest available and sourced within 80 km of the vineyard, corks come from Roussillon forests, natural wax replaces aluminum capsules, and labels are made from recycled fibers like sugarcane, hemp, and flax. From vine to packaging, Pierre & Antonin reflects a philosophy that is as eco-conscious as it is uncompromising in craft.

Their standalone Nature's Revenge range is crafted using the historic méthode ancestrale. Free from artificial secondary fermentations or injected gas, the process relies on a single, continuous fermentation. It begins in the vat with native yeasts, and once well underway, the temperature is dropped to pause the process. The wine is then bottled while it still contains its natural residual sugars. As the bottle warms back up, the yeasts awaken to consume the remaining sugar, trapping the resulting carbon dioxide to form a delicate sparkle. This collection features Pét-Nat Vivant, a crisp white with a creamy foam reminiscent of artisanal craft beer, and Pét-Nat Vigne Sauvage, a vibrant, energetic rosé bursting with notes of fresh red fruits.

Solis Lumen

The sea, the wind, and the sun are the defining elements of the South of France, the very birthplace of Solis Lumen. Crafted by Domaine Montrose using a curated blend of grapes from trusted partner winegrowers, the brand features a vibrant lineup: a chillable red, a classic rosé (also available in a can!), an expressive orange, and a non-alcoholic alternative, all designed to encapsulate the energy of the region.

Mirroring the purity of their origins, these wines are rooted in organic farming and carbon-neutral practices, entirely dedicated to preserving our planet.

 

For nine generations, the Coste family has tended the vines of the Languedoc region at the Montrose estate. To them, Montrose is far more than a winery, it is a living, breathing sanctuary of community and shared moments. It is through this ancestral savoir-faire and deep reverence for the land that they are able to craft such exceptional, soulful wines.

 

The family approaches their craft with a holistic worldview. By championing virtuous agricultural practices, they actively promote biodiversity throughout their vineyards. They are fiercely committed to reducing their carbon footprint, ensuring they give back to the ecosystem that sustains them. This philosophy is perfectly captured in the name Solis Lumen. Translating directly to "Light of the Sun," Solis Lumen is an open invitation to bring a piece of the Mediterranean sunshine into your life.

Celliers Les Dauphins

The sun-drenched vines of Cellier des Dauphins flourish in the Rhône Valley, silhouetted by the foothills of the southern Alps rising in the distance. Here, the estate nurtures the renowned grape varieties that have made the Côtes du Rhône famous: Syrah, Grenache, Viognier, and a rich tapestry of other regional grapes.

It is precisely this varietal diversity that empowers the winemakers at Cellier des Dauphins to craft aromatic, blended wines of immense complexity, epitomizing the absolute best of the southern Rhône.

Founded in 1967 by the UVCDR, Cellier des Dauphins has grown into the pride of its local winegrowers, rising to a position of undisputed regional pre-eminence. Over the decades, its reputation has expanded hand-in-hand with a spirit of constant innovation. At the heart of their philosophy lies a deep reverence for the land, backed by concrete actions to preserve biodiversity. This includes converting 3,000 hectares to High Environmental Value (HVE) certification, with 1,350 of those hectares simultaneously dedicated to organic agriculture.

As fierce champions of eco-design, Cellier des Dauphins pushes its packaging suppliers to continuously pioneer sustainable solutions. These efforts include significantly reducing glass bottle weight, utilizing FSC-certified paper, printing labels with vegetable-based inks, and completely eliminating plastic carrying handles from their bag-in-box ranges. This latter change alone has eliminated 7 tons of plastic per year. Proving their leadership in sustainability, Cellier des Dauphins won the inaugural Eco-Design competition organized by Adelphe, the French agency for recycling promotion, in February 2020, and secured the prestigious award again in 2023 for its 3L Bag-in-Box.

Vignobles Famille André Lurton

Monsieur Touton Selection are pleased to announce a national importing and distribution partnership with the prestigious estates of the André Lurton Family in Bordeaux, including the iconic Château Bonnet. It is an honor to represent these historic properties and focus on their continued growth though our extensive network.

The Lurton family is one of the most respected Bordeaux Château owners with more than a dozen prestigious Châteaux and producing outstanding wines since 1897. Among them is Château Bonnet, their flagship in the Entre-Deux-Mers region; it remains one of the most beautiful and as well as one of the biggest in the appellation with 300 acres of vineyards. 

Jacques Lurton now runs the family estates with his vast 30 years of winemaking experience from around the world. Today, Les Vignobles André Lurton owns  over 1500 acres of vines that are planted in the best soils, over 6 prestigious appellations in Bordeaux. The Lurton mission is to produce the best quality wines possible while being sustainable and with a commitment to Corporate Social Responsibility.

André Lurton Family, producing outstanding wines passionately since 1650. Les Vignobles André Lurton, currently one of the largest wineries in the Bordeaux wine region, is a family company. Our corporate history is inseparable from that of a great family of Bordeaux winegrowers, the Lurtons, who have strived for excellence in their Bordeaux wines for decades, as well as in other great terroirs around the world. This family’s passion for viticulture goes back a long way. Their ancestors, the Récapets, came from several small parishes near the famous village of Saint-Emilion. Millers in the mid 17th century, they were also winegrowers in their spare time like many others country dwellers at that time. Two centuries later, after marrying into other local families, the Récapets moved several km south of Saint-Emilion to Branne. Jean-François Récapet, called “Léonce”, was born there in 1858. He is responsible for the family’s passion for fine wine. As an adult, he took over a small liqueur factory founded several years previous by his father and uncle. He ended up taking over and modernizing the distillery, applying modern marketing methods before their time. Forging solid commercial links, he also increased the range
to include rum, wine flavored with cinchona, fruit syrups, etc.

"I have made it my mission to produce high-quality wines using environmentally friendly methods that delight wine lovers around the world." - Jacques Lurton
