2022 Domaine Caroline Bellavoine Bourgogne Rouge
Caroline Bellavoine is the talk of the town. Her tiny production of old-vine Pinot Noir from the lesser-known Côtes du Couchois is pure, rustic, and deeply expressive of its unique terroir. It’s old-school Burgundy through and through – seriously complex and not for the faint of heart! Decant for 1 hour before enjoying.
Organic farming practices, native yeast fermentation, unfined/unfiltered, aged for 18 months in French oak barrels and only 150 cases produced annually.
2023 Moreau-Naudet & Fils Chablis
Moreau-Naudet Chablis has been compared to icons like Dagueneau and Dauvissat—an extraordinary testament to the precision and elite-level of winemaking that is happening. We are in the big leagues here people. If you love Chablis, this is a must-try.
Organic/biodynamic farming practices, hand-harvested, native yeast fermentation and woman-winemaker.
2022 Chateau du Cèdre Cahors AOC Malbec
When you see Malbec, you probably think Argentina. However, the Malbec grape is actually native to Cahors and the French expression of this grape is deep, earthy and structured. It’s a total 180 from the common, fruit bomb Malbecs that line the shelves today. Next time you make a burger, pop this guy instead of your typical Cab.
Certified organic farming practices, hand-harvested, aged for 20-22 months in new oak and bottled unfined and unfiltered.
2023 Scribe Carneros Pinot Noir
Scribe, a pioneer of terroir-driven winemaking in Sonoma, makes one of our all-time favorite Pinots. Invite a few close friends over for an intimate dinner, light some candles, play some jazz and serve wild mushroom risotto topped with fish, chicken or as is! This Pinot will go with it all.
Organic farming practices, hand-harvested, native yeast fermentation (30% whole cluster), and aged 7 months in neutral oak with minimal intervention.
