Jo Landron Brut Atmospheres NV
$50.00Out of Stock
As always this is officially non-vintage (although Jo tells me it is 2017) and is mostly Folle Blanche. It is made in the extra brut style using the méthode traditionnelle. Jo will add a little dosage at disgorgement during the first 24 months, but later disgorgements such as this one receive no such support. It […]

Roc Breïa Pinot Noir 2022
$245.00Out of Stock
“Théo Dancer’s 2022 Pinot Noir is rather deep and muscular this year, opening in the glass with aromas of plummy fruit and sweet spices, followed by a medium to full-bodied, deep and primary palate framed by sweet, powdery tannins. It’s matured in used 500-liter barrels.” 92 points, William Kelley, The Wine Advocate The Roc Breïa […]

Chartogne-Taillet Champagne Brut Rose NV
$110.00Chartogne’s delicious rosé is based on a similar blend to the Sainte Anne cuvée, without the reserve wine – instead this is purely from vintage 2018. The base was combined with a little Estate red wine from the vineyards of Les Orizeaux and Fontaines de Saint Thierry. Wild fermentation was followed by élevage in barrels of […]

Claude Marechal Cuvee Gravel Bourgogne Rouge 2018

Nicole Lamarche Hautes-Cotes de Nuits 2020
$80.00“The 2020 Bourgogne Hautes-Côtes de Nuits Rouge has a little more florality on the nose compared to the Bourgogne Rouge, just a touch more delineation. The palate is crunchy in the mouth and displays a little more energy compared to the Bourgogne Rouge. Pretty, yet early-drinking.” 88 points, Neal Martin, Vinous Lamarche holds 1.5 hectares in […]

Thierry Glantenay Bourgogne Rouge 2019
$85.00The 2019 Bourgogne Rouge delivers inviting aromas of cassis, sweet berries, spices and orange rind, followed by a medium to full-bodied, ample and fleshy palate that’s lively and sapid. After the rich, gourmand 2018, the 2019 is a touch more nuanced and dynamic, but this is always a dependable cuvée. 88 Points – William Kelley, […]

Laherte Freres Les Longues Voyes Blanc de Noirs 2016
$180.00The 2016 Extra Brut Blanc de Noirs Les Longues Voyes 1er Cru is a dense, powerful Champagne built on vertical intensity.

Paul Dethune Grand Cru Rose Brut NV
$135.00Lovely alluring scents of strawberries, red cherry, raspberry, blood orange aniseed and Middle Eastern spice. Sensual and rich, creamy with a gentle, fluffy mousse. Extremely complex palate, far more than you should expect in a NV rose Champagne. Again that lift from citrus fruit, pith and mineral textures, bright acidity and complex fruit profile. The […]

Gerard Julien & Fils Bourgogne Rouge Origine 2020
$75.00I’m not sure why, but there has never been a better time to drink Bourgogne rouge or blanc. Usually the least expensive option, also meant poor value. But this is something else. Intense aromatics of sweet raspberry, strawberry, plum, blackberry, subtle wood and minerals. It’s the lightest wine in the range, but carries plenty of […]

Benjamin Leroux Vosne Romanee 2020
$265.00“A little lighter in crimson purple and showing a touch of oak now. Quite powerful, not quite so harmonious but note that this has been tasted directly after the sublime Nuits-St-Georges Aux Boudots. Actually, this is a fine and nicely nuanced Vosne-Romanée.” 90-93 points, Jasper Morris, Inside Burgundy “There is a very pretty, perfumed and high-toned […]
