CHAMPAGNE & SPARKLING WINE

Although sparkling wine is produced all over the world, it can only be called ‘Champagne’ in this strictly regulated district. Champagne may be

produced in several styles, including: Non-Vintage, Rosé, Vintage, and Blanc de Blancs.

These small

farmers grow their

own grapes and

hand craft their

wines on a more

artisinal level that

the Grandes

Marques that are

more well known.

BEGINNNING IN BURGUNDY - CHARDONNAY

Not only is Chardonnay one of the most popular grape varietals in the world, it is one of the most versatile and flavorful. Basic Chardonnay can

be vaguely fruity and neutral, but at its best, Chardonnay acts as an expression of the vineyard in which it is grown. Chardonnay from

Burgundy takes awhile to mature, while California Chardonnay is much more approachable in its youth.

Sommeliers like to

think of Chablis as

their 'Vitamin C'

because it gives

them an excuse to

drink more.

Due to the limestone soil and cooler climate, wines made from Chardonnay grown in Burgundy are higher in acidity. In their youth they are

lemony and minerally, but with bottle age, the true ethereal flavors of white Burgundy develop. In California, by contrast, these flavors develop

more quickly as a result of the warmer climate and most are ready to drink on release.

This is the

powerhouse of the

White Burgundy

villages. Big, rich

and even fat in

texture they

somehow maintain

and elegance that

is hard to resist.

Often considered

the greatest village

in the world to

grow Chardonnay,

Puligny is a true

translation of the

spirit of

Burgundian terroir

into the glass.

Chassagne-

Montrachet is the

last great

commune in the

Côte d'Or. Known

for balancing the

minerality of

Puligny, but with a

softer and juicier

texture.

Sometimes it's

better to take the

road less travelled.

These wines come

from less illustrious

appelations, yet

over perform their

reputation.


The 'best of the

best' in White

Burgundy. These

are the birthplace

of the most sought

after Chardonnay

grapes in the

world.

Because of its cellar longevity and its ability to maintain varietal identity while reflecting the individuality of its ‘terroir’, Riesling may be the best

of all the white wine grapes. It can produce wines that vary from dry to very sweet.. No grape other than Riesling can produce a wine with

such finesse, purity of fruit, intensity of flavor, and a ‘lift’ of acidity.

BORN IN BORDEAUX - SAUVIGNON BLANC

Although the Sauvignon Blanc grape originated in Bordeaux, it is widely grown in the Loire Valley, California, New Zealand, and Austria.

Although the flavor components of melon, lime, and passion fruit are similar among all the regions; the intensity and acidity levels can vary,

depending upon the soil and climate.

Delicate and floral. You think this is a grape for freshness, until you try it with age and the complexity wins over youth.

VIURA

Grown in Rioja and with a few years of American oak aging, Viura, at its best, tastes like Meyer lemons and sun tan lotion.

Think the Italian version of Chardonnay. You can see different styles ranging from light and citrusy to textured and oaky.

VERMENTINO / PIGATO

Floral and melon in its youth, Greco builds a richness and herbal quality with time in the bottle.

SAVAGNIN

No, it's not Sauvignon Blanc. This is more like what all those unoaked Chardonnays are trying to be like.

GRAPES YOU MIGHT NOT HAVE HEARD OF, BUT SHOULD

PETIT MANSENG

Rough counts put the number of different wine grapes in the world between 5,000-8,000. That's a lot. I mean, how many do you really need?

Yet, it seems that every time we get complacent with the grapes we know someone says, "here, try this!" #mindblown How did we not know

of this delicious little morsel? Well, now it's our turn to return the favor.

TROUSSEAU GRIS

Thanks to a couple of avant garde winemakers and one old vineyard, hopefully we'll get to see more of these in the future.

This sensual and charming grape produces some of the most ethereal wines in the world. The flavor component of this finicky grape changes

drastically based on where it is grown. A lovely little grape at its best, beware the bulk wines.

The historic town

of Gevrey-

Chambertin is

known for

producing the most

powerful wines in

Burgundy. Power,

muscle, and rich,

jammy fruit.

Chambolle has a

rich, velvety

elegance that rivals

the finesse of

Vosne-Romanée or

the power of

Gevrey-

Chambertin.

Descriptions of the

Perhaps the most

representative

examples of pinot

noir in the world

come from this

commune. These

wines are often

described as

opulent, silky and

satiny.

The largest Grand

Cru in the C ôte

de Nuits, variability

happens.

However, we did

the hard part and

picked the best.


The most iconic

wine producer in

the world. We are

proud to represent

a few bottles of

the wine that

makes billionaires

weak in the knees.

The wines of Nuits

might have a touch

of the maverick,

but the bucolic

charm is no less

alluring.

This is the real

deal. Unctuous,

fruity, and backed

by a mineral edge

that makes saving

a bottle pretty

tough when it

drinks so well

young…

Tucked behind,

between, above or

below the famous

appellations are

vineyards sharing

weather conditions

and geography

with the grandest

of Grand Cru

producers.

Soft, seductive and

perfumed. The

wines of Volnay

are a hedonistic

experience.

There's two great

stories about

where the name

came from. Care

to come up with

number three?

Is it the "Dust"? Is

it the "Bench"?

Lots of people try

to pin down what

makes it so great,

but at the end of

the day, what

matters is that

Rutherford is a silly-

delicious region for

Cabernet

Sauvignon on the

valley floor.

Maybe the most

representative sub-

region of the Napa

Valley, this is

where the most

classic (and often

the most

expensive)

examples of

Cabernet

Sauvignon in the

New World come

from.

richness from the

heat balanced by

an elegance that

stems from the

cool breezes.


We're cheating on

not legally an AVA,

Pritchard Hill is still

a favorite overall

some of the Best

of the Best.

The Napa Valley

hit the world stage

in 1976 when

Stag's Leap Wine

Cellars won the

'Judgement of

Paris' and the

whole world turned

to see what was

being done in this

little California

haven. Really, it

started way before

that and modern

winemakers

continue to push

the levels of top

quality started by

just a few wineries

in the late 19th

and early 20th

centuries.

More a

continuation of the

Napa Valley to the

North, Knights

Valley produces

some of the

greatest Cabernet

based wines in the

new world.

also!

the undisputed

king of the Left

Bank style in

Bordeaux.

Lifted aromatics

define the

Margaux style,

typically due to a

It's tough to start

trying Bordeaux

without a second

mortgage. Let us

help guide you to

some of our

hidden treasures.

Garagistes reign

supreme. Ultra-

small productions

and ultra-highly

sought after wines.

Softer and more

decadent than the

Left Bank, St.

Emilion is like a

gateway drug to

the Bordeaux

obsession.

Syrah, also known as Shiraz, is denser and fuller than Grenache. The basic flavor components are blackberry jam, smoke, black pepper, and

bacon fat. The new world expressions are riper with loads of dark fruit, whereas in the Northern Rhône, Syrah is more delicate and spicy with

lower alcohol and higher acidity.

Italian grapes are some of the msot fun to be had. With over 800 indigenous varietals, it is tough to find similarities. However, there is one

underlying truth: Italian grapes have been bred over centuries to pair with food. And that is why they have a special place in our hearts and

on our list.

King of the Port grapes, Touriga Nacional is inky and dense while somehow remaining crispy and refreshing.

Mencia is definitely off the radar. We don't know why. Cherries backed by leather and savory tones. (Pronounced with a lisp…)

Who doesn't like Tempranillo? Muted strawberries and soft textures usually backed up by a dollop of oak? Delicious!

Light and juicy with an implied sweetness (not there) that might get you to literally smack your lips together.

Rough counts put the number of different wine grapes in the world between 5,000-8,000. That's a lot. I mean, how many do you really need?

Yet, it seems that every time we get complacent with the grapes we know somehow says, "here, try this!" Mind blown. How did we not know

of this delicious little morsel? Well, not it's our turn to return the favor.


REFOSCO

Dense and chewy, this is not for the faint of heart. AKA Mondeuse from the Savoie region of France.

ZWEIGELT

This is fun stuff, it's like pinot noir for über-geeks filled with spicy cherry and raspberry flavors.

A crossing of Pinot Noir and Cinsault from the Rhône Valley make for an interesting grape with loads of non-fruit aromatics.
