Cave de Lugny Cremant de Bourgogne Millesimee 2016
50% Chardonnay, 50% Pinot Noir. This exceptionally priced Burgundian sparkler offers a terrific chance to try a relatively rare commodity in our market. This Gold Medal-winning bubbly (Concours des Vins Burgondia) has suggestions of toasted bread and nuts on both the nose and palate, with tangy citrus and a hint of tea. Well-balanced, crisp and refreshing.

Dense and deep red with purple highlights. The nose is ripe with red fruit compote, mixed with a touch of spice. The full bodied mouthfeel and harmonious palate is loaded with ripe fruit and silky tannins with an excellent lengthy finish. This beautiful Rhône is an ideal accompaniment to grilled meats and Mediterranean cuisine.

Vecchia Cantina Chianti Riserva 2016
This terrific Tuscan value comes from carefully selected grapes 400 metres above sea level on top of a limestone ridge adjacent to the ancient village of Montepulciano. The grapes are hand harvested and after a traditional vinification it spends 2 years in oak.
Aromatic, expressive and round, this vintage offers loads of Sangiovese character in a succulent, mid-weight style that will find plenty of admirers. The balance of the texture and freshness makes for a compelling Chianti to drink now and over the next few years. All and all, a terrific Tuscan value!

Marcoux Chateauneuf-du-Pape 2012/15/16
93pts Vinous: Highly perfumed red fruit liqueur, potpourri and Moroccan spice scents show impressive vivacity and focus. Sappy, alluringly sweet and precise, offering palate-staining raspberry and floral pastille flavors and a hint of spice cake. Closes very long and smooth, displaying excellent focus, even tannins and emphatic, floral-tinged persistence. – Josh Raynolds (Vinous)

Ode D’aydie – Madiran 2017
Chateau d’Aydie Madiran 2016
Deep, intense ruby red. Fine, elegant and complex on the nose, with a blend of black fruit and coffee aromas. It starts off rich and follows through with a mature consistency and silky tannins. Fine, precise woody mouth aromas. An exceptional Madiran, powerful and complex, with unusual potential. This wine can very easily be kept for 7 to 10 years.
Maison Sinnae Esprit du Rhône CDR Rosé 2021
Domaine Tropez Crazy Bulles
Clos de la Roilette Fleurie Tardive 2018
"Coudert's brilliant 2018 Fleurie Cuvée Tardive offers up a deep and incipiently complex bouquet featuring raspberries, mulberries, rose petals, violets and cracked black pepper. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied, deep and layered, with an abundance of rich and powdery structuring tannins, ripe but lively acids and a long, lingering finish. While this is built for the long haul—its name alluding to the aging potential of this old-vine cuvée, not to a later harvest—its enveloping profile and perfectly mature phenolics will make it unusually approachable in its youth." - 95 Points Wine Advocate (2018 Vintage), August 2019
Serge Mathieu Brut Millesime 2009
It has structure, power and length, and bears the mark of its Pinot Noir. It clearly shows all the work that has been carried out in the vineyards since only very ripe and small grapes can produce such density and structure in a Champagne. 8.6 grams dosage.
Entirely made from Pinot Noir… clear, fresh and straight fruit of yellow skinned apples and Williams pears along with citrus flavors and some stony notes on the nose. This is remarkably elegant and delicate with a mineral backbone and an excellent grippy finish.
Domaine Sainte-Anne Cotes du Rhone Blanc 2021
Vibrant and refreshing. The nose displays an enticing bouquet of lemon and grapefruit, with subtle floral notes and a hint of minerality. Crisp and zesty on the palate, citrus flavors shine bright with notes of lemon, lime, and grapefruit, along with hints of peach and apricot. A mineral undertone provides a nice balance and complexity.
Its bright acidity and fruit-forward character make it a refreshing pair with seafood dishes.
Verrier Et Fils Cuvee Tradition Brut 375ml
75% Meunier, 20% Chardonnay, 5% Pinot Noir
Aged in Cellar 4 Years before Release
The nose opens with a welcoming intensity and delicious tones of almonds and cherries that develops into darker berries and pastries.
The palate is effervescent yet robust. Well-structured tannins flesh out the perfectly balanced acidity, with notes of grapefruit and apple, and ending with a lingering finish that will have you reaching for another glass.
