Wines and spirits Paris 10th 75010

Alexandre Frezouls has been familiar with vines and wine since his earliest childhood on the family estate "L'Enclos de la Croix". This 23-hectare estate is located in Lansargues, Hérault. Alexandre moved to Paris to sell his wine to wine merchants, where he began his career. One thing led to another, and he decided to open his own winery. The purple storefront catches the eye. The interior is all raw wood, very natural like his wines. Nearly 600 references from Bordeaux, Burgundy, Beaujolais, Rhône, Languedoc-Roussillon, Champagne and many others, including a few foreign wines. Classics and unpretentious natural wines rub shoulders with vintages. There's something for everyone, because Alexandre is a true professional who doesn't lock himself into a particular range. He first listens to the customer, determines his or her needs and desires before proposing a wine, and does all this in a cheerful, happy atmosphere. Customers are loyal, and through word-of-mouth, the cellar is gradually becoming a benchmark.

Director of Fischer, one of the great Alsatian brewers, inventor, among others, of the «six pack» and the famous Desperados, Jean-Charles Foellner bought the domain in 2001 to a named… Corrona!
