Agustí Torelló Mata, Brut Reserva Cava | 2019 {In Our Opinion One Of The BEST Cava Producers In Spain}
This organically farmed Estate fruit Cava is way more serious than you may be used to. The wine spends three years on the lees and is only disgorged when the US importer places their order. This results in a richer, more complex style of Cava that displays some serious brioche.

Weingut Stephan Müller Riesling Kabinett Alte Reben | 2021
The grapes for this fantastic Kabinett come from one of the oldest plots in the Saar, most of which are still planted with ungrafted vines that are almost 100 years old. These roots deep in the red slate soil and can therefore provide the small, highly aromatic grapes with water and nutrients even in the driest years. Fine, initially somewhat puristic bouquet characterized by cold, smoky slate notes and hints of citrus fruits. With more air, the wine opens up and notes of crisp apples and pronounced herbal notes of aniseed and lemon balm further add to the complexity. Very precise on the palate, dense and polished with a dreamy play of sweetness and acidity, excellent mineral structure and a long, spicy aftertaste - will mature magnificently! Bin: 7307

Domaine Jean Francois, Sanford and Benedict The Twelve Rows Pinot Noir | 2018
The 2018 Pinot Noir Sanford and Benedict Vineyard The Twelve Rows is sourced from Block T6, which was planted in 1995. It was done with very gentle extractions, the fruit crushed by foot, with native ferments, after which it spent 16-18 months in barrel, all Chassin, 1/3rd new. Bright red/purplish berry fruit, lavender, rose petal and spice are all laced together in a very pretty Pinot Noir that shows the more transparent side of Sanford and Benedict off to great effect. Whole clusters add pretty top notes without being overly intrusive. This is such a classy wine, and an impressive debut. Bin: 4009

Many of the plantings on these steep 1.6 hectares date back to 1910, placing them among the oldest in the region.

Domaine Dubreuil-Fontaine Corton Clos du Roi Grand Cru | 2013
"The King's Plot" vineyard became Louis XI's property when the last Duke of Burgundy died. It's considered mid-slope and sits just above Bressandes.
