Domaine Boris Champy Hautes Cotes du Beaune Montagne 382 2021
$79.00Add 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.
This wine comes from their Montagne de Cras plot in Nantoux which is at 382 metres altitude and the name of the Montagne de Cras lieu-dit on the label. The pebbly slope has all kinds of life and even a few rare corm trees. The wine itself is aged on the lees in barrique for a year with 25% new oak before resting in stainless. The resulting wine is clean, smooth and full of citrus and honeysuckle with a well-integrated, judicious note of oak. -
Domaine de la Chapelle Des Bois Chiroubles 2022
$22.00Add to cartFrom the heart of Beaujolais comes a delightful gamay. In the vineyards they the principles of lutte raisonnée and minimal intervention in the cellar—spontaneous fermentation, semi-carbonic maceration in cement vats, and aging in 50-year-old wooden casks—produced Beaujolais of vivid fruit, terrific freshness, and structure enough to develop well in bottle. The resulting wine has a vibrant expression of fresh red fruits, delicate tannins, and is very welcoming.

Domaine Guiberteau 2020 Saumur Blanc Breze
$145.00Add to cartOne of the most sought after producers in the Loire. The wines of Domaine Guiberteau are for those really in the know. The legendary Becky Wasserman has this to say about Guiberteau: Romain Guiberteau owns some of the best land in Brézé, and makes dry chenins of punk rock violence, yet of Bach-like logic and profoundness.
This wine from Brézé is one of the peaks of Chenin Blanc. It’s incredibly dry with ripping texture and acid. It’s like watching a linebacker dance ballet.

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.

Doyard Brut Blanc des Blancs Cuvee Vendemiare
$80.00Add to cartThis champagne is not quite like any other; it’s got its bubbly personality, but they are softer bubbles, more nuanced; the wine itself is luscious and gives you more than you might expect at first. The wine asks you to look at champagne differently with a different perspective and opens your eyes to the potential. – David

-
Far Mountain Fission Cabernet Sauvignon 2020
$49.00Add to cartThis is a perfect example of a New World wine that drinks more Old World because it comes from high elevation vineyards on the cool Sonoma Coast. The vines in the vineyard site are extraordinarily old for California (over 50 years) and bring some of the depth and concentration from the vines into the final wine.

Felsina Vin Santo 375ml 2017
$76.00Add to cartThis Chianti Classico wine is embodied by the “mother” (the remains of the previous vintages) being moved from the previous years casks to the next. The Trebbiano, Malvasia, and Sangiovese grapes are carefully dried out before aging. This is one of our favorite sweet wines (a category that needs so much more love) and we think everyone, but especially Italian wine lovers, should try this.
