From vines as old as 140 years and the average age is 85+ years old! This remains the best value Northern Rhone wine I sell. This wine can age! A 2010 was spectacular when I had it at the estate. The 24 is extraordinary and the most classic Epine yet (maybe similar to the genius 16?)

This is from 30-50 year old vines and is located next to Volnay 1st Cru Les Champs Fulliots. The most famous owner of this estate is Domaine Leflaive. Yes, that Leflaive. The good one. A 1er Cru that is a sleeper but really rocks in a vintage like 2023.

Hauts Brins sits in that sweet spot between elegance and backbone, the kind of place that makes you wonder why Monthelie still flies under the radar when sites like this exist.

This is not a 1er Cru. This is a Lieu-Dit. And yet it drinks like royalty because the lines are blurring. The B-tier vineyards are stepping into their power, thanks to climate, precision farming, and growers who are actually paying attention. Beaune is no longer a bargain-bin afterthought for broke Burgundy buyers. Its the quiet revolution. The revenge of the “almost greats.”

This is a highlight of the vintage. Its also a steal. If this were labeled Pommard, youd pay double. If it were labeled “1er Cru,” youd weep at checkout and still buy a case. But no, this is just “Bourgogne Côte dOr.” That beautiful, bureaucratic nonsense category where serious winemakers hide their joybombs.

This is not some placeholder while your cellar of Rousseau/Roulot ages gracefully in its climate-controlled tomb. Santenay is a cornerstone. Its part of the Burgundian mosaic that the Cistercians spent centuries assembling, pixel by pixel, stone by stone, vine by vine. This 2023 VV from Rebourgeon, is the kind of wine that reminds you exactly why the hierarchy exists in the first place.

He took the velvet punch of 2022, the lavender lift of 2023, and then danced into 2024 with a wine that somehow feels like 2010 by way of 2021, backflipping across three parcels of old vines like a Gevrey gymnast possessed.

Garaudets wines are about purity of fruit and an imposing finesse and elegance while also being muscular. Wines of contrast but most notably for me the big leap he made is in purity of fruit, finesse and even better fruit quality and definition. The new ritzy terroir must help but his older wines that we used to sell are just amazing.

Very deep and dark yet cool and youthful, this is an extraordinary pinot with great mineral freshness and incredibly fresh wild berry and sour cherry flavors. Very long, chalky finish that ripples over the palate into the smoky and stony distance. From organically grown grapes. Matured for 18 months in well-used, small oak casks. 98 points SP

Welcome to the dark forest with its berries, dry floor and wildflowers. Incredibly deep and complex on the nose, but that barely prepares you for the density of spices, dried Mediterranean herbs, licorice and sandalwood on the rich, medium- to full-bodied palate. Theres a huge structure behind all this, but its beautifully integrated. - 98 Points, SP

Lovely mousse and cut. Terrific sap on the finish Terrific wine and what an epic finish. For what its worth this wine is always better on day 2. Best Champagne to open if youre going to be alone for two nights in a row.

For $64.99 that is an absolute insane screaming mimi of a value for a Champagne this good. It needs air, as all Perseval-Farge wines demand, but once it aired out it shows why it is so good. I think 40 minutes gets you there.

The nose of orange blossoms and orange cream leaps out at you, making this great dry pinot blanc hard to resist in spite of its youthfulness. Concentrated and creamy, with fine tannins on the medium- to full-bodied palate, then great chalky complexity builds in the very long, silky finish. Excellent aging potential, as the still lively 2003 shows.” — Stuart Pigott, 97 Points

For anyone who knows the James Bond novels where the wines from this vineyard site are mentioned, here is a prototypical example that marries the generosity and elegance of the Goldtropfchen. I love the interplay of raciness, juiciness and saltiness on the light-bodied but beautifully structured palate. Drink or hold. - 95 points SP

The first and last Kabinett from Treppchen. One of the wines of the vintage at Chez Steinmetz.

Here is a beautiful and very classic riesling Kabinett from this very famous site. Elegance, silkiness and purity all converge in this delicate and light-bodied masterpiece. Then comes the fantastic interplay of juiciness and savoriness in the very long, beautifully balanced finish! - 95 SP

This maturing dry riesling masterpiece has a fantastic elegance and stunning concentration. Please give it some air in the decanter and glass, because it becomes fresher with more air. Terrific slatey minerality and candied citrus character, the herbal and mineral energy driving the very long, complete finish. Decades of further aging potential. - 97 SP

One of the stars of the 2020 vintage, with exceptional aging potential. Enormously smoky and spicy, this is a remarkable wine for the very hot and dry vintage. Its dangerously fresh and sleek, with fabulous energy and grapefruit flavors. The dark, smoky minerality builds and builds on the very compact and radical finish, with enormous wild herb character. Drink from release. - 99 Points, Piggot

“A mineral giant with a ton of smoke, wild herb and bergamot complexity. Enormous concentration and energy with racy and extremely stony acidity. And the sweet fruit complements this beautifully at the very long and complete finish. From organically grown grapes with Fairn Green certification. Drink or hold.” - 98 Points Stuart Pigott (2021)

This mouth-filling riesling Spatlese is brimming with orange blossom, wild rose and pink grapefruit. Terrific succulence, almost to the point of lushness, but then the bright acidity kicks in and cleans everything up at the wonderfully silky and subtle finish. Excellent aging potential! Drink or hold. Screw cap. - 95 SP

This unique dry silvaner is a dead ringer for Meursault from a top producer. I love the delicate toasty character that is beautifully interwoven with seriously leesy complexity on the medium-bodied palate. Great seashell character in the extremely long and refined finish. From organically grown grapes. - 96 Points, Pigott

The Rödelseer 2023 Riesling Hoheleite GG is clear and intense on the elegant nose that shows white stone fruit as well as herbal aromas. Elegant, pure and saline on the palate, this is a dense and lush, vivacious and nervy as well as tensioned Riesling with serious mineral and tannic grip on the aromatic, long and stimulating saline finish. 12.5% alcohol. - 95, WA
