Wines In The Collection

André et Michel Quenard France | Savoie, Bugey, Hautes-Alpes
Grown on near-vertical limestone scree slopes, Bergeron reaches incredible heights here, yielding a blanc full of character and flavors of peach, tangerine, and pine resin.

I Pástini Italy | Puglia
You’ll recognize the root verde in Verdeca, the grape variety in this snappy and slightly aromatic Italian white, and the reason won’t be lost on you.

Domaine du Gros ‘Noré France | Provence
Crisp and characterful, and loaded with Provençal complexity, it’s a balanced blend of structured Mourvèdre with equal parts Cinsault, a more delicate variety, and fruit-forward Grenache.

La Soeur Cadette France | Burgundy
Few domaines bring out the joyous side of red Burgundy like La Soeur Cadette. When I close my eyes and try to dream up the ideal bistro red, this is it.

Travel no further than Chignin, where the Quenard family bottles a Roussanne (dubbed Bergeron in these parts) that will exceed your wildest expectations.

Davide Vignato Italy | Veneto
It’s made from his oldest, highest-altitude vines trained in the traditional pergola style, creating a beautiful canopy from which his Garganega dangles in slinky, loose bunches.

Domaine Hauvette France | Provence
Beautiful color, fresh-squeezed citrus and stone-fruit nose, luminous and invigorating while round and luscious at the same time.

Domaine Hauvette France | Provence
A gorgeous perfume of honeysuckle meets the nose, and the wine is at once both lush and nervy, comforting and stimulating.

Régis Bouvier France | Burgundy
I find the Clos du Roy blanc to be quite versatile at my house in Meursault, especially with fowl, pork, and veal.

Domaine Michel Brégeon France | Loire
A subtly floral nose and textured mouthfeel seal the deal. This is off-the-charts Muscadet.

Éric Chevalier France | Loire
Eric’s latest cuvée, a cranberry-orange tinted Cabernet Franc rosé, is a mouthwatering homage to the carefree moments in life.

Domaine Arretxea France | Southwest
Any lover of whites from Chablis or the Loire should try this white made of Gros Manseng, Petit Manseng, and Petit Courbu.

A Feast Born in Burgundy

It’s twenty-eight degrees in Beaune tonight, that damp, Burgundian kind of cold that reflects off the stone streets and walls and doesn’t care how many layers you have on.

Bourgueil through the Eyes of the Boucard Family

New Arrivals from the Savary Family

Jean Foillard: Humble Legend of Morgon

Even the most renowned vignerons in Villié-Morgon tend to be laid back and unassuming despite the monumental Gamays they produce—perhaps none more so than Jean Foillard. One of Morgon’s “Gang of Four” Kermit first championed thirty years ago, Jean farms some of the cru’s most celebrated vineyards and his translation of these schist, granite, and sandstone terroirs is never anything short of breathtaking.
