Julien Courtois, child of the 1976 vintage, is the eldest of two sons born to Claude Courtois, one of the most monumental figures in natural wine. Julien has had his own, separate production for nearly 20 years – before Le Clos de la Bruyère, now GAEC Courtois Kuka – and his approach is the same as his father’s, though with a sensibility all his own. The result is equally splendid! On his 5-ha estate, we find a multitude of grape varieties from here and there, many of them planted franc de pied – ungrafted. Here, we let mother nature work her magic; the grass grows freely, the vine expresses itself naturally, without any violent interventions from man, chemistry, or the like... But take note: the daily care bestowed on his vines and in his cellar work represents watchmaker-like precision and mastery in his art... His wines are more and more sought out by connoisseurs!
Sulphites-free wine
A very fine red, with notes of blackcurrant and elderberry... But this is also highly structured, with well-blended tannins, silky and balanced... Superb intensity. It’s a great big cat that would happily be laid down to nap a few months in your cellar before coming out to play!
Sulphites-free wine
A crisp, fruit-driven juice, with notes of blackcurrant and blackberry. Spicy, fleshy, fine, and addictive like all the wines of Julien Courtois. A supple, luscious palate, full bodied, fruity and structured.
Sulphites-free wine
A concentrated juice, with spice, mint, and animal notes. On the palate, this is a fruit bomb, with beautiful depth. On the whole a structured wine boasting great drinkability. Warning: an addictive wine! But if you can be patient, it’s also got superb ageing potential…
Sulphites-free wine
An ultra mineral Romorantin, with citrus notes and white flowers. A balanced and fruity palate with notes of dried apricot, pear and apple. Beautiful length and acidity. This scarab with either give you wings or leave you with a sting!
Sulphites-free wine
Highly aromatic juice — powerful and surprisingly distinctive, with floral and minty notes, hints of eucalyptus and lime… The palate is built with great verticality, striking a perfect balance between sharp tension and fine minerality.

Sulphites-free wine
A vibrant juice that opens on fresh red berries — think redcurrant and cranberry — before unfolding into a subtly spicy, refined, and addictive nose, just like all of Julien Courtois’ wines. The palate is supple and delicious, with a beautiful balance of fruit, structure, and drinkability.
Sulphites-free wine
A rich, fine Chenin with notes of citrus fruits, apple and beeswax... A refreshing, balanced palate. Beautiful minerality.
Sulphites-free wine
A devilishly powerful Romorantin, mineral-driven, with notes of white flowers, lime, candied lemon, and Earl Grey tea… The palate is luscious, fruity, and balanced, with insane length. Best to wait a little before popping the cork. You’re going to fall for the beetle!
Sulphites-free wine for aficionados
Decidedly atypical and explosive — dried apricot, forest floor, flowers, hazelnut, a touch of sherry… it’s so incredibly complex! The palate is rich and deep, a bottle to share with friends over a cheese board. For the true Courtois-style aficionados!
Sulphites-free wine for aficionados
Late harvest but completely dry — with floral tones, dried apricot, forest floor, and a touch of eucalyptus… It’s deep, complex, powerful, and constantly evolving — you want to dive right in. On the palate: huge volume, endless length. Unique, delicate, and brilliantly executed.
