After all of these years spent as both amateurs and professionals, we continue to be inspired by natural wine; how it makes us feel (high), what it can do to our own ways of seeing the world, and perhaps most importantly how it brings people together.
In 2026 we will return in a new form—please be on the lookout.

La Ferme du Pasteur
Drôme, France
Since their first vintage in 2021, Caroline Connolly and Rémy Kaneko have showcased a certain level of consistency and balance in their wines that to be frank, we don’t see come around too often from recent upstarts. Located in the not so vin-nature populated Drôme, an area parallel to the Ardeche, we taste something unique in their Grenache vinifications—perhaps something a bit more savoury, and yet still fruited with the proper dose of acid. In their 23 offerings we are also blessed by Patte Blanche, the first vin blanc from the domaine.
