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 Cheveau Pouilly Fuisse 1er Cru Vers Cras 2023
$64.00Add 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 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 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 des Marechaux Bordeaux Superieur 2020
$17.00Add to cart100% merlot made from 30 year old vines farmed at Europe’s highest level of sustainability. Aged in concrete vats. A really great way to learn what merlot should taste like.
This is a fresh take on Bordeaux – has all of the dark fruit you want out of Merlot and a touch of spice, without being overly oaked or tannic. Supple enough to drink on its own or to cut through fatty meats at the table. Definitely over delivers for the price point! – Ben

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 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.
