When we first tasted the Qvevris wine by Frédéric Cossard immediately after its release (debut was the 2018 vintage), we were bewildered by its extremely unique flavor. However, after observing the maturation process over the years, we have begun to understand Cossard's intentions and the direction in which the wine is heading. It goes without saying that 2019 possesses completely different vintage characteristics compared to the 2018 (which is also controversial), so we highly recommend experiencing both.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0825\/9728\/2020\/files\/chassorney_cossard_banner_11_500x735_9627bbf3-9533-4ea1-96d1-a634c0a1a490.jpg?v=1783508318\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Vin et Saké Nature","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49356136906980,"sku":"F04530115RAJ2019N","price":360.0,"currency_code":"HKD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0825\/9728\/2020\/files\/frederic_cossard_mercurey_2019_01_735x735_dda8c411-b09d-4462-99dd-78cccff6aa36.jpg?v=1783508349"},{"product_id":"a787-frederic-cossard-bourgogne-blanc-bigotes-2020-750ml","title":"[A787] FREDERIC COSSARD BOURGOGNE BLANC BIGOTES 2020 750ml","description":"\u003cp\u003eBigotes is a great natural wine classic, made from Chardonnay from the Puligny-Montrachet area, near Volnay and Pommard.

As one would naturally expect from Burgundian fine wine, the 2019 Qvevri emerged with a personality completely distinct from the 2018. As you know, both vintages are recognized as legendary years for Burgundy. For the 2019, we were equally curious to see how it would evolve with time; furthermore, because it initially showed a tighter, firmer structure, we decided to keep it resting in the Beaune cellar until now.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhile the 2018 is sitting at about 90% potential, the 2019 has reached a full 100%—meaning it is safe to say it has hit its absolute peak. It has the elegant character of a classically aged Burgundy. The texture is seamless, with aromas drifting softly above a deeply concentrated core of pure fruit extract. The fact that its delicate nuances are displayed with such crystal clarity is, once again, perhaps because there is no oak influence to get in the way.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/vinetsake.wordpress.com\/2026\/09\/29\/this-bedeau-2019-is-definitely-genuine\/\" title=\"Bedeau Bigotes Natural Wine Bourgogne Frederic Cossard\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u0026gt;\u0026gt;\u0026gt;Read more about this bottle at the News Archive-1\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/vinetsake.wordpress.com\/2026\/09\/28\/18-19-bedeau-bigotes-version-qvevris\/\" title=\"Bedeau Bigotes Frederic Cossard\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u0026gt;\u0026gt;\u0026gt;Read more about this bottle at the News Archive-2\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/vinetsake.wordpress.com\/category\/wine\/frederic-cossard\/\" title=\"Frederic Cossard Natural Wine Bourgogne\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u0026gt;\u0026gt;\u0026gt;Read more stories at the News Archive\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0825\/9728\/2020\/files\/chassorney_cossard_banner_44_490x735_832e9aa7-5946-49c9-b8c6-f3a47de4616e.jpg?v=1783683443\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Vin et Saké Nature","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50540033212644,"sku":"F04910115AAJ2019Q","price":290.0,"currency_code":"HKD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0825\/9728\/2020\/files\/frederic_cossard_bedeau_qvevris_2019_01_735x735_d93a977d-fcd6-4e84-8863-2f0c284586e9.jpg?v=1790422333"},{"product_id":"a124-frederic-cossard-bourgogne-blanc-bigotes-qvevris-2018-750ml","title":"[A124] FREDERIC COSSARD BOURGOGNE BLANC BIGOTES QVEVRIS 2018 750ml","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBedeau and Bitotes, The Masterpieces\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs you may already well know, \"Bedeau\" and \"Bigotes\" are not only Frederic Cossard's signature cuvée but also an absolute masterpiece of natural wine.

(In reverse, the pointed spires of churches and palaces are designed to capture cosmic and atmospheric energy.) Upon opening, we could intensely feel this energy tightly coiled within.
