Intense wildflowers, notes of freshly cut straw, and crunchy macadamia nuts, all supported by singing minerality. The l'Étoile AOC is something of an outlier in the Jura; it’s comprised of only 75 hectares and rarely sees export outside of France. Domaine

These are three grape varietals that do well in the cool climate of the Finger Lakes, a climate reminiscent of Alsace, France. Classic notes of honeysuckle, tropical and citrus fruits, and aromatic floral elements.

Soft and round with some lush green fruit from Chardonnay, and and fresh white flowers from Rousette. Jeremy Decoster apprenticed with many acclaimed natural winemakers such as Lilian Duplessis in Chablis. Bonus fact: he plays the harpsichord.

Woah. Trippy, man. Auxerrois offers a depth of brioche, mineral, and vibrancy in this awesome crémant, while the touch of Chard keeps things bright and moving along. The domaine was founded in 1977 when Laurent and Rita Kox began making wine rather than j

The wine is named “Mes Favorites” because it’s sourced from winemaker Jean-Paul Hébrart’s favorite parcels within the 1er Cru vineyard Mareuil, which borders the Grand Cru Aÿ; indeed, some consider the two to be equal. Weightless and ethereal, with ginger

The goal of Subject to Change is to create a canvas on which to explore the terroir and natural winemaking possibilities of Northern Cali. This chardonnay undergoes whole cluster fermentation, adding depth. It then sees 5 months in used oak, and 5 in stai

The Deschamps estate is one of only a handful in Chablis to be producing organic wines. Indeed, Georges considers organics to be a way of living, not just a certification. This is a classic Chablis; bright, fresh, and mineral driven. 12 months on the lees

A delightful Cali Chard with a touch of butter, generous ripe fruit, and balancing acidity. 1/3rd of the wine does not go through malolactic fermentation, retaining much-needed freshness.

We blinded this as all Mauzac; don’t fear the Chardonnay. There’s green starfruit, with heaps of minerality, acidity, and freshness. This Domaine is a benchmark in Limoux; Jancis even includes them as a noted producer in the World Atlas of Wine. Coolio.
