2023 Jobard-Morey - Meursault Narvaux (PRE ARRIVAL)
The 2023 Meursault Narvaux is a terrific effort, exhibiting notes of white flowers, pear, crisp green apple and toasted almonds, followed by a medium to full-bodied, satiny and racy palate that's taut and chalky, reflecting its hillside origin
2023 Jobard-Morey - Meursault Poruzots (PRE ARRIVAL)
The 2023 Meursault 1er Cru Poruzot is one of the more immediate wines in the range, bursting with notes of pear, peach, citrus oil and freshly baked bread, followed by a medium to full-bodied, fleshy and textural palate that's generous and layered.
2023 Jobard-Morey - Meursault (PRE ARRIVAL)
Jobard's 2023 Meursault Village derives from his old-vine holdings in Les Pelles, below premier cru Gouttes d'Or, where the soils are deep but gravelly. This is the finest rendition I've tasted to date, offering up notes of pear and orange zest mingled wi...

2001 Jamet - Cote Rotie (750ml)
I loved the 2001 Cote Rotie, but it's not for the instant gratification crowd, and even at age 14, it still has a wall of acidity and tannin. Compared to the '91 by Jean-Paul, it's a serious, medium to full-bodied, concentrated and structured Cote Rotie t...
1967 Bertani - Amarone della Valpolicella DOCG Classico (750ml)
This wine stands out and is one of my favorites in this historic retrospective. The Bertani 1967 Amarone della Valpolicella has evolved elegantly to show cola, licorice, dried prune and maraschino cherries. The bouquet remains bright, vertical and intense...
2022 Manincor - Vigneti delle Dolomiti IGT Bianco La Manina (750ml)
2022 Rocca, Bruno - Langhe Nebbiolo DOC Fralu (750ml)
The 2022 Langhe Nebbiolo Fralù is an absolute delight. Lifted oral overtones and bright, red-toned fruit grace this translucent Langhe Nebbiolo. The 2022 spent 22 days on the skins, unheard of for a wine at this level, followed by nine months in neutra...
2024 Antoniolo - Rosato Nebbiolo (750ml)
The 2024 Nebbiolo Rosato Bricco Lorella is a total pleasure to take in. Stone dust and dried flowers combine with nuances of chamomile and nectarine. It's soft textured and round, with a core of juicy acidity and q savory array of orchard fruits. Brisk...
2024 Bisci - Verdicchio di Matelica DOC (750ml)
Brothers Giuseppe and Pierino Bisci first purchased their vineyards in 1972. The land was widely regarded as optimal for planting Verdicchio and 85% of the roughly 50 acres of vineyards are devoted to Verdicchio. The south-facing vineyards are at elevations of about 900–1000 feet above sea level, located within a valley that runs parallel to the sea, providing excellent protection from hail and frost, and also creates a more continental microclimate than the surrounding environment. The grapes are able to ripen fully during the hot summers while maintaining refreshing acidity with cool nights. The vineyards are all certified organic. The Bisci Verdicchio is fermented in inert cement vats at a cool temperature to protect the aromatic compounds. The wine is then matured for 8 months in cement, which allows for slow micro-oxygenation, while not imparting additional flavor characteristics to the wine. Exposure to small amounts of oxygen over time helps protect the wine from oxidizing in the bottle and increases the complexity of aromas and the wine’s structure. Intense notes of Meyer lemon, white flowers, and green apples on the nose continue on to the palate. Bright acidity and the wine’s minerality make this a great companion to light foods.

2023 Cantina Tramin - Gewurztraminer Nussbaumer (750ml)
Few realize that Alto Adige is the spiritual home of Gewürztraminer (which translates as “spice carrier” for its spicy, exotic notes) and it has been a hallmark offering at Tramin since it was founded one hundred and twenty years ago. Today, the grapes are sourced from vineyards in Montan and Tramin, where this grape is known to produce wines of particularly high caliber.

2021 Kaapzicht - Pinotage Stellenbosch (750ml)
The red gravel soil in our hallmark Pinotage blocks gives these vineyards their name — Rooiland (red land). Not only is Pinotage South Africa’s very own grape, it was first planted down the road from Kaapzicht. As no other wine better shows where we came from or who we are, we craft the wine according to its classic style: intense, plush, and opulent.

2024 Cvne - Viura Rioja Monopole Blanco (750ml)
Svelte in stature and underscored by a racy streak of salinity, this also offers a broad, lightly textured mouthfeel to carry the flavors of poached pear, lemon wax, Marcona almond, wild sage and graphite. Distinctive. Drink now. 40,000 cases made, 4,000 ...
2022 Henri Germain - Meursault Chevalieres (PRE ARRIVAL)
The 2022 Meursault Chevalières 1er Cru had not gone through malolactic when I tasted it from barrel. Composed and rened, the nose oers touches of walnut and apple blossom. I appreciate the harmony here. The palate is understandably sharp at the moment ...
2022 Henri Germain - Meursault Charmes (PRE ARRIVAL)
The 2022 Meursault 1er Cru Les Charmes is especially good this year, offering up aromas of citrus oil, lemon curd, pear, white flowers and bread dough framed by a deft touch of youthful reduction. Medium to full-bodied, satiny and suave, with a deep, mult...
2023 Chateau Yvonne - Saumur-Champigny La Folie (750ml)
Yvonne Rouge is the original red wine produced at the domaine from the exceptional terroir around Parnay. It’s one of the finest Cabernet Francs from the Loire, and has the seemingly indefinite ageing potential of all truly great wines. Certainly enjoyable on release, it will greatly benefit from 3-5 years in the cellar, and continue to improve for many more

2023 Domaine de la Pepiere - Muscadet Sur Lie La Pepie (750ml)
100% Melon de Bourgogne. Classic Muscadet on granite. The core of the "La Pépie" Sur Lie bottling is the 10-hectare heart of the Pépière estate, which is part of the Clisson cru in the tiny commune of Pépière near the winery; there is also a portion of purchased fruit from a nearby organic farmer friend in the mix. Pépière's farming is certified-biodynamic and the harvest by hand. The bunches are direct-pressed and the juice settled for 12 hours. It is fermented in stainless steel tanks with natural yeasts; the wine is aged on its lees for 6-8 months in large, underground, glass-lined cement tanks. It is bottled without filtration.

2022 Ghislaine Barthod - Chambolle Musigny Baudes (PRE ARRIVAL)
The 2022 Chambolle-Musigny Les Baudes 1er Cru is pure and sensual: black cherries, raspberry and light bay leaf scents, almost pastille-like in style with beautifully integrated oak. The medium-bodied palate oers sappy black fruit and gentle but insist...

The 2022 Chambolle-Musigny Les Sentiers 1er Cru is their rarest wine
2022 Ghislaine Barthod - Chambolle Musigny Cras (PRE ARRIVAL)
The 2022 Chambolle-Musigny Les Cras 1er Cru bides its time unfolding in the glass, eventually revealing earthy red fruit, clove and hints of bergamot. This is very complex, but it is not a ashy Chambolle. The palate is medium-bodied with gentle grip on...
2022 Jacques Carillon - Puligny Montrachet Champs Canet (PRE ARRIVAL)
A discreet application of wood sets off cool and layered aromas of the essence of white orchard fruit, citrus confit and acacia blossom. There is again fine richness to the medium-bodied and caressing flavors that retain good detail on the mineral-driven ...
