Wherefore Grape Curate?

We admire wine growers who do things simply, because it is often the most difficult, and because it always gives the best results.

They convince us that sustainability is not high-brow. It is, in fact, quotidian.

They are the people we work with. Sworn protectors of the soil, devout scribes of the vines. Their cellar is a gate from which distinctive wines with unimpeachable conscience emerges, every one traceable to their origin, variety and maker — without apology.

Their wines exhibit deliciousness that is elemental. Every cuvée is sui generis, free from guise or guile, nurturing a wellspring of liminal energy that alternately slakes and inspires thirst.

If you care about truth, meaning and conviction in what you drink, you will cherish these marvellous pure wines made by small people with big talents, and even bigger hearts.

Welcome to Grape Curate, where culture abides nature, and good taste meets good conscience. The cutting edge is here.

“In all rites, simplicity is better than extravagance.”

Confucius

Damien Menut | Sonnemot (Grolleau) VdF 2021 $62

Red wine
100% Grolleau
100% whole bunch
15-months in old barrels
1,100 bottles made

The only wine bearing its vineyard name and rightfully so as it's over 60-years old. This is a showcase of tranquility (excuse the oxymoron). Serene, pure, soothing red wine with brilliantly-defined red berries fruitiness. A wafting of fir and a touch of spice peer out before a lush, sapid redcurrant palate follows through an unbounded whispery finish. This is simply too pretty. No SO2 added. 10.8% alc — and 100% delicious.

Damien Menut | Gamay VdF 2021 $62

Red wine
100% Gamay
75% hand destemmed
15-months in old barrels
2,000 bottles made

A fabulous depth and whispery structure in this gamay, quite intense but not overly serious. None of the usual candied fruit character but a cool currant and cherry fruit instead. Très Pinot, really. Glides so easily on the palate with a captivating inner mouth perfume as time wears on. Hard to put this glass down. No SO2 added. 11.3% alc.

Damien Menut | Cabernet Franc VdF 2021 $62

Red wine
100% Cabernet Franc
50% whole bunch, 50% hand destemmed
15-months in old barrels
2,000 bottles made

As gentle and pretty as a Cab Franc gets, this shows the softer side of the variety that few know. Tea leaf scented, red-fruited with the subtlest hint of tannins, immensely drinkable. There is an innate structure to keep it together and that recurring zen theme across all of Damien's offering. No SO2 added. 10.9% alc.

Damien Menut | Sauvignon VdF 2020 $70

White wine
100% Sauvignon Blanc
2-years in old barrels
1,600 bottles made

Beautifully perfumed with pears, green apple, honeysuckle and hay. At once mouth-filling and mouthwatering, it pobsesses an outstanding midpalate presence and layered inner mouth perfume. The complexity builds, and builds. Purity and energy in a joyous bundle. This shows Damien's understated mastery of his craft. Wow! No SO2 added. 12.5% alc.
