"It's a bright, precise rendition of this Chardonnay-dominant cuvée."
Egly-Ouriet Les Vignes de Bisseuil 1er Cru (2018 Base)

The 2018 base of Les Vignes de Bisseuil has intensity, transparency, and energy. There's a vinous rigor that nicely frames the radiant chalky core. There are notes of stone fruits, flowers, and brioche. 

"The quality of Lamy's 2022s is excellent"
2022 Lamy Puligny-Montrachet "Les Tremblots Vieilles Vignes"

Lamy's wines are grandly sculpted with eye-opening rigor, and the way that it all came together in the 2022 Tremblots is pretty amazing. 

"If you aren't familiar with the wines, do yourself a favor and find a few bottles to try - you'll thank me."
-2023 Tribut Chablis 1er Cru Côte de Léchet

I have a particular soft spot for the mineral precision of Côte de Léchet. It seems that I'm not alone—Côte de Léchet always sells out quickly.

"Excellent"
-2021 Dujac Clos de La Roche

Dujac is one of Burgundy's elite domaines. It's rare that I get to offer their top wine, the Clos de la Roche. 

White Burgundy:
Bernard-Bonin, Colin-Morey, Lamy,Lafon, Leflaive, Pillot, Roulot & More

"Magnificent"
2012 Taittinger Comtes de Champagne Rosé

2023 Lapierre Morgon MAGNUMS

It's an intense, powerful, and layered vintage for the wine. Still, as it always does, the 2023 has a bouncy lift and a fresh streak of granite-inflected minerality. All of this melds into a gorgeous, silken texture.

"This is outstanding and classic Bouchères"
2023 Roulot Meursault 1er 1er Cru Clos des Bouchères

The 2023 1er Cru Clos des Bouchères boasts a beautiful radiance and an incisive presence. Burghond calls the wine "super-sleek," and that gets to the beating heart of the wine. There's a focused and polished elegance to the 2023 that's stunning. 

Riesling at its most Mysterious and Heartfelt - J.B. Becker New Releases

Hans-Becker has brought in more than fifty vintages, and at this point, his touch is so natural and easy that there is an uncommon stylistic continuity among the vintages.

Argentinian Game-Changer:
2024 Bodega Chacra Mainque Chardonnay

Mainque comes from alluvial soils rich in calcaire that are biodynamically farmed. The 2024 is striking. It has a bright, saline mineral core that is complemented by notes of citrus, stone fruit, and white flowers. It has impressive concentration and length, but it really stands out for its incredible tension and poise. By any standard, this is a dynamic bottle of chardonnay. 

"This will be irresistible."
-2023 Bachelet-Monnot Chassagne-Montrachet

Bachelet-Monnot's Chassagne AC is a bottle that we reach for often.

Red Burgundy:
Bachelet, Dujac, Fourrier, Meo-Camuzet,
Mugneret-Gibourg, Roumier, Rousseau & More

It's a long list of red Burgundy, and I won't take up much time with an introduction. 

A Vivid, Shocking, and Disorienting Perspective:
Beurer Sauvignon Blanc

This is a very serious bottle of wine - a wine that has a lot to say about what Sauvignon Blanc can be - yet it is just so perfectly proportioned and seamless that it is one of the most drinkable Sauvignon Blancs we've had in a long time.

"Among the finest made this year..."
Vollenweider's Revelatory 2024 Kabinetts

In 2024, Hoffmann was given the vintage in which to shape even finer, even more precise Kabinetts - recalling the top years of the 1990s and the early aughts, like 2004 and 2008.

At The Top of Their Game:
2023 Leflaive Puligny-Montrachet

The wine has punch, refinement, and detailed minerality that are rarely encountered at this level. 

"This is a fantastic Jamet not to be missed by anyone fortunate enough to latch into a bottle."
2022 Jamet Côte-Rôtie

This is Côte-Rôtie in full glory, flaunting a poise and detailed expression of minerals, herbs, spice, savory elements, and florality. The aromatics simply soar.

"Guffens produces some of the most exciting wines in all of Burgundy."
2022 Guffens-Heynen Mâcon-Pierreclos 1er Jus de Chavigne

The 1er Jus refers to the free-run and first-press juice, which has higher acidity. The 2022 flaunts the purity and tension that this wine possesses. It's intense, laser-focused, and silky-textured. The wine is profound, nuanced, and has a well-balanced, compact frame. The entire package is lovely. 

Limestone Speaks - Cult Germany:
2022 Wasenhaus Weissburgunder Möhlin

Thriving On Grace:
2023 Jouan Chambolle-Musigny

You can expect the 2023 Chambolle to have an extra textural element that makes it incredibly seductive. The wine's silky mouthfeel, minerality, and penetrating complexity is compelling.

"Superb"
2019 Roagna Barolo La Pira

The 2019 has a radiant clarity and a punchy dynamic energy that's thrilling. There's also a soaring power, gripping depth, and beautiful elegance. It's shocking how the wine manages to combine such density and verve. The spectrum of flavors is jaw-dropping - layered red fruits, game, earth, tar, herbs, spice, etc.

Mastery On Display:
2022 Lafon Meursault Clos de la Baronne

The level that Lafon is currently working at is simply amazing. For me, these are some of the most exciting white Burgundies being made. I'm happy to offer the 2022 Clos de la Baronne. 

Champagne 1990-2021:
Cedric Bouchard, Chartogne-Taillet, Cristal, Krug, Pierre Peters, Selosse & More

2022 Bartolo Mascarello Barbera d'Alba
- An Unforgettable Example of the Grape

This is only the second time that we've been able to offer the wine. I should warn you from the outset that this is a small parcel, and it will likely disappear quickly. 

Wine of the Year Revisited:
2022 Mugneret-Gibourg Vosne-Romanée

In 2022, the wines of this domaine are incredible. There’s an extra dimension of depth and breadth to these wines from the top to the bottom of the range.
