Tête Bêche is one of Barbichette's reds, and it's the bottle we'd hand anyone who still doubts that New York can make natural reds with real character. Barbichette is the work of César Vega and Louisiane Remy, who also run Café Integral, a direct-trade Nicaraguan coffee roaster. Their first wine was thirty cases of Riesling, made in a corner of their Brooklyn roastery. They don't own vineyards. Instead they buy organically and sustainably farmed fruit from a handful of growers, all on Seneca Lake in the Finger Lakes. Their motto is "nothing added, nothing removed," which means native-yeast fermentations and no fining, filtration or added sulfites. Give it a slight chill and pour it for the table.

More about Barbichette

César Vega and Louisiane Remy launched Barbichette in 2019 with fruit from Seneca Lake in the Finger Lakes. Despite their newness to winemaking, they bring genuine dedication to craft and detail. Their approach favors natural fermentation and minimal intervention, creating wines that reflect both the place and the hands that made them. Barbichette's pét-nats and still wines are honest, expressive bottles that prove you don't need decades of history to make something worth drinking.

Flatiron's Take

From the Importer

What has to say about this wine:

Tasting Notes & Food Pairings

Perfect Pairings

Herb-roasted chicken, grilled pork chops with mustard, mushroom and lentil stew, duck confit with roasted root vegetables, charcuterie boards with pâté and cornichons.

Tasting Profile

Expect a light-to-medium-bodied, cool-climate Cabernet Franc: red cherry, raspberry and crunchy red currant with the grape's classic green-pepper and herbal lift, plus the earthy, savoury edge typical of natural reds made without added sulfites. Think a juicier, lighter Chinon, with bright acidity, soft, fine tannins and a dry, refreshing finish that shows best slightly chilled.
