There is something exotic here, something herbal, quite serious with great tension.
France | Beaujolais
A generous dash of plump, sun-ripened fruit enveloping a granite core.
Italy | Friuli
First class depth and complexity on par with village level White Burgundy, but with a Friulian slant. Zingy adicity with citrus and apple notes.
France | Corsica
Aromas of black fruit, graphite, wild herbs, and game over firm, stony tannins.
France | Bordeaux
It has the nerve and precision of the Définition cuvée along with additional weight and structure.
France | Loire
Chinons from Joguet are known for their firm minerality, but this one is quite charming as well, with plummy black fruit, myrtle, and notes of warm licorice.
France | Burgundy
A thirst-quenching, spirit-lifting, and downright delicious white Burgundy.
France | Loire
The fruit is concentrated, deep, and pure, suggesting wild brambles and tart blackberries, along with an earthy, spicy component and hints of cedar.
France | Languedoc-Roussillon
The Jurassic limestone soil and high elevation lieu-dit where the name “Montmajou” springs from lend this blanc a lean elegance.
France | Beaujolais
A relatively new addition to Guy Breton’s Beaujolais lineup, this exuberant Côte de Brouilly is flat-out delicious.
France | Corsica
Muriel Giudicelli’s Patrimonio rouge is elegant, deep, bursting with ripe black fruits, silky smooth, and offering great length.
France | Corsica
Aromas of black fruit, graphite, wild herbs, and game over firm, stony tannins. Saturated with flavors of the Île de Beauté.
France | Alsace
Decadent, rich, stony, and a touch off-dry—hard not to love.
France | Savoie, Bugey, Hautes-Alpes
Pure Gamay from high in the mountains—bright, floral, and deliciously fruit-driven, with a satisfying crunch.
France | Languedoc-Roussillon
Just different and obscure enough to deliver the thrill of introducing someone to a gorgeous wine that is familiar, but new.
France | Provence
If Hermitage were grown in the Provençal Alps...
Italy | Sardinia
A field blend of Vermentino and other native Sardinian grapes, one week maceration; deep, broad, savory, and salty
France | Corsica
This white, raised in demi-muids with malolactic fermentation, flamboyantly shows off the affinity of ripe Vermentinu grapes with a judicious use of wood.
France | Loire
This blanc is chiseled and electric and boasts notes of citrus, herbs, and stones that would beautifully complement pan-fried sea bass or shrimp tacos.
France | Alsace
That grapes can be cajoled and fashioned to make such a liquid is miraculous. This aroma is beyond belief.
France | Corsica
The Diplomate is rich, exotic, and appealing—a monument to the grandeur of the forgotten Corsican varietals.
France | Loire
The most serious and age-worthy of Champalou’s dry wines, it has a depth and richness of flavor that allow it to shine alongside refined cuisine.
France | Savoie, Bugey, Hautes-Alpes
Lychee and ripe citrus wrapped in beeswax. You might think there are a bunch of busy benevolent bees whiling away inside your glass.
France | Alsace
That grapes can be cajoled and fashioned to make such a liquid is miraculous.
France | Loire
A lovely combination of Grolleau Noir and Cabernet Franc, there seems to be a synergistic effect elevating both grapes to create a juicy, spicy, refreshing whole.
France | Bordeaux
Ripe and opulent, this cuvée further blossoms with an hour in a decanter.
France | Corsica
A nod to the island’s rich history of viticulture, the Général is simply a stunning bottle of white wine.
France | Corsica
If you’re like me, a glass of Corsican Muscatellu sparks visions of evening cheese plates laden with Marcona almonds and gemlike fruits.
France | Loire
A subtly floral nose and textured mouthfeel seal the deal. This is off-the-charts Muscadet.
France | Southwest
Any lover of whites from Chablis or the Loire should try this white made of Gros Manseng, Petit Manseng, and Petit Courbu.
Italy | Sardinia
Sporting rich primary fruit, an intense granitic backbone, and tannins already mellowing from extended large cask aging, this monument to Sardinian viticulture delivers impressive power and authenticity.
France | Bordeaux
The incredible depth, power, and fine but grippingly youthful tannins are text-book Pomerol
Italy | Friuli
Definitely a contender for Italy’s best Pinot Nero.
France | Corsica
A nod to the island’s rich history of viticulture, the Général is simply a stunning bottle of white wine.
Italy | Tuscany
This 2017 is compact and absolutely brimming with energy, culminating in a grippy, stony tannin.
France | Languedoc-Roussillon
Earthy, meaty, savory, juicy, and powerful, it is a glassful of joyful, soulful goodness.
France | Corsica
Not quite Rhône-like and not quite Corsican, this has the best of both worlds, with plenty of palate-staining black fruit to boot.
France | Burgundy
With loads of fresh Gamay fruit, it flows over the palate with a juicy buoyancy that simply makes it hard to resist.
France | Loire
Fresh and punchy Cabernet Franc from fun-loving Catherine and Pierre Breton. Light, juicy, and ready to go. Drink young, drink chilled, drink plenty.
Alessandro e Gian Natale Fantino
Italy | Piedmont
November Club Chevalier ~ Elegant, lithe, and versatile, this Barbera is full of young charm, fragrant fruit, and bright, mouthwatering acidity.
Sicily
The wine builds to a crescendo and leaves the palate stained and saturated with staying power. This is much more than quaffing Frappato. Irresistible.
France | Provence
This is my go-to olive oil at home, drizzled over EVERYTHING, and it's always fun to share your favorite things with the ones you love. Give the gift of an artisanal kitchen restock!
