Comte Armand Pommard Clos des Epeneaux 1er Cru 2022
$299.00Add to cartA monopole from a fantastic producer. This Pommard is a gem of the Cote de Beaune. While it’s young, there is complexity already. It has ripe fruit and enough earthy spice that this is going to mature into a beautiful wine.

Daniel-Etienne Defaix Chablis 1er Cru Vaillons 2010
$96.00Add to cartThis is a fascinating wine. Most people’s conception of Chablis is that it should be drunk young, preferably with oysters, but this wine provides an aged counter-point. It has a nutty and almost sherry-like nose that you would think is prematurely oxidized, but the palate is so fresh it’s like sucking on an electric lemon.

Daniel-Etienne Defaix Chablis Vielles Vignes 2021
$51.00Add to cartThis Chablis is a delight to drink. It’s everything we like in a young Chablis: crisp, elegant, textured, and possessing a hidden, stony depth that teases itself out across your palate. These wines can age if you have the patience and fortitude to not drink them.

Domaine Bitouzet Prieur Volnay 2021
$80.00Add to cartBen and I were fortunate enough to garner an invitation to taste with Mr. Bitouzet on his first trip to the United States despite having made fantastic (and popular) wines for decades. It was incredible to be able to taste the line-up with the producer and hear Neal Rosenthal tell stories about their relationship and the wines. What struck us, though, during the tasting was how much soul the wines have. There are other producers who make similar wines from similar parcels of land but these wines have a marked depth and are all absolutely worth tastings.

Domaine Bitouzet-Prieur Meursault 2021
$99.00Add to cartBen and I were lucky enough to attend a tasting of the Bitouzet-Prieur portfolio with Neal Rosenthal who was hosting Vincent Bitouzet who was on his first trip to the US. Some special bottles were opened including a stellar birth year bottle directly from Neal’s cellar.
What we love about these wines is that they are so thoughtful. Wines to sit down with and really enjoy.

Les Corbins is located north of the village of Meursault on the way to Volnay, just underneath the premier cru Les Plures. The 3+ decade old vines come from family holdings and the grapes are aged for 16 months in 20% new barrels. Call it a textbook Meursault where intense minerality is combined with a subtle texture and buttercream note, and plenty of acid-driven tension as per the Bitouzet house style.

$70.00Add to cartThe site for Boris Champy was developed by Didier Montchovet, an early adopters of biodynamics in Burgundy. Today the estate wines are all labeled under Boris Champy and are fully certified.

Domaine Cheveau Pouilly Fuisse Hameau 2022
$45.00Add to cartThese store favorite producers are Chardonnay specialists brought in by our friends over at Rosenthal. The Hameau is grown on clay and spends 14 months on the less to get texture. It’s rich and dense and mineral. We love it.

Domaine Collotte, Marsannay Les Boivins, 2021

Domaine de la Romanee Conti Richebourg 2020
$4,600.00Add to cartWhat can we say about this wine that hasn’t already been said? Domaine de la Romanée Conti is the most highly prized wine on earth. It’s sought by collectors and investors and when a bottle is opened those crowded around are in awe. This bottle has perfect provenance and has been immaculately cellared.

Domaine de La Tour Penet, Macon Peronne Rouge 2023
$22.00Add to cartAn incredibly balanced Gamay from Burgund that still presents great value in a category where there isn’t often value. Coming from the higher slopes of the Mâconnais it’s juicy with great fruit while still retaining acidity.
-
Domaine Faiveley Mercurey Vielles Vignes 2022
$62.00Add to cartAn old vine Pinot from one of Burgundy’s most reliable producers. Faiveley is one of the largest producers in Burgundy, but don’t let that make you think their wines are sub-par. They take their experience and apply it to make terroir driven expressions of all their various holdings. Mercurey is on village on the Cote Chalonnaise which takes its name from the god Mercury (God of trade). The wine is concentrated and structured, aromatic, and full of deep red berries and a bit of vanilla.

Domaine Faiveley Nuits Saint Georges Les Montroziers 2022
$113.00Add to cartDomaine Faiveley is a juggernaut in Burgundy, but one who rarely disappoints. The wines are classically styled, ageable, and seek to express terroir. A solidly made wine all around.

Domaine Long-Depaquit (Albert Bichot), Chablis, Le Clos Grand Cru, 2020
$125.00Add to cartThis is great Chablis. Still a tad young but starting to coalesce. Expect peak drinking around 2026-2035 (wow can’t believe I just wrote 2035!) Right now the minerality dominates and truncates what will certainly be a more fruit driven finish in the future.
-
Domaine Long-Depaquit (Albert Bichot), Chablis, Vaudesir Grand Cru, 2017
$135.00Add to cartIn perfect drinking condition right now (2024) with weightier youthful oak now integrated into the wine. We only scored two bottles of this wine, so get it while you can.

$125.00Add to cartFrom 47 year old vines the wine is just coming into its prime drinking and will continue to be fresh and beautiful for another 7 to 10 years. This is a very fine example of the Vaudesir site and an excellent Chablis.
