Domaine Huet’s Le Haut-Lieu Vouvray Sec is a wine of singular achievement—full-figured yet crystalline in its golden apple fruit, powerful but unpretentious—a wine with a price tag that would triple if it hailed from Burgundy. Sotheby’s has called Huet “the benchmark for [Chenin Blanc’s] potential.” It’s near-immortal in the cellar, loveable, and exceptional in every…
We get a little jolt of adrenaline when we see a Saint-Aubin Premier Cru on a wine list. These Chardonnays deliver so much of the crackling, citrusy energy and succulent apple fruit of their neighbors in Puligny-Montrachet, but in a more elegant, vibrant way—AND at half the price. It’s a sure sign that says the…
The Mellot name is practically synonymous with Sancerre. The family has been making wine in the region since 1513, and they were elevated to a position of honor when Louis XIV appointed César Mellot as the royal wine advisor in 1698. That kind of endorsement does wonders for building a family empire—and now Domaines Joseph…
Sancerre is still the hottest category in French white wine, and the region’s standard-bearing Sauvignon Blanc is steadily gaining popularity—even with the headwind of relentless price increases. This is especially true of the best single-vineyard wines, like those from the Cotat cousins, Boulay, or Vacheron. Wines in this elite class are getting very scarce indeed….
William Fèvre is a hugely important name in Burgundy. But there’s another branch of this royal family of Chablis that deserves to be known much more widely: Domaine Nathalie & Gilles Fèvre. In 2022, a vintage that Decanter rated 4.5 out of 5 stars, this team of husband, wife, and daughter (all trained enologists) NAILED…
Most wineries’ early days are marked by toiling in the cellar and clamoring for attention in a crowded market. The prestige, and the fervent demand that accompanies it, comes years later—if it comes at all. Laura Catena’s exquisite Burgundian-style Domaine Nico Pinot Noirs, on the other hand, have been tightly allocated since day one. The…
A crisp, mouthwatering white wine drenched in minerality, grown in limestone-rich vineyards in one of the oldest wine regions in Europe. If you think that sounds like Chablis or Sancerre, you’re right. But it also describes today’s 2022 Domaine Papagiannakos Assyrtiko, which is without a doubt one of the world’s great under-the-radar whites. Assyrtiko (Ah-SEAR-tih-koh)…
Floating high over the Loire River in our bright orange balloon, we were primed for a relaxing morning… but Sonia Raimbault had other ideas. It was barely after dawn but she was as animated as ever, pointing out the Sancerre plots that produce some of our members’ favorite wines. We, having gone maybe a bit…
Despite the fame the town of Chardonnay has achieved through its most famous creation, very few wine lovers have ever had the chance to try a bottle of Chardonnay from Chardonnay—which is a shame. But here’s what we love about that: Despite the fame of the name, the village’s off-the-beaten-path status means there are some…
No village in Burgundy has been more exciting in the last decade than Meursault. Although there are no Grand Crus in Meursault, some of the most coveted and expensive white Burgundies hail from the village. But, as in many regions that have experienced a surge of interest, there are still opportunities to be found if…
Our first vintage of Doudet-Naudin Chardonnay Vin de France was one of only five Chardonnays to make the cut for Wine Enthusiast’s Top 100 Best Buys. We offered it to our members, and they loved it, bestowing a rating that made it our top-rated under-$20 Chardonnay of all time. The second vintage earned massive raves…
Jeb Dunnuck has called Dragonette “world-class.” Last summer, Antonio Galloni of Vinous called them “one of the most consistent and impressive wineries in Santa Barbara.” As for their 2022s: “I can’t say enough good things about this set of wines.” And their 2022 Bentrock Pinot Noir stands out—even among a lineup of world class wines. …
Of all the wineries we’ve discovered at Wine Access, we’d be hard pressed to think of one that has been more rewarding than Dragonette Cellars. Run by John and Steve Dragonette and their friend Brandon Sparks-Gillis, the winery has been roundly praised by just about every critic who covers California. Antonio Galloni of Vinous has…
Dragonette is quite possibly our favorite California Pinot Noir. It’s the one that we share with friends and family on special occasions, and we would put it up there with icons like Sea Smoke, Rhys, and RAEN, and Radio-Coteau. We’re certainly not alone. Jeb Dunnuck has called Dragonette “world-class,” while Antonio Galloni of Vinous once…
Since their founding in 1996, DuMOL has risen to the very top of the Russian River Valley hierarchy on the strength of their Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Syrah, and Cabernet. And while DuMOL’s versatility has impressed both critics and wine lovers, their Burgundy varieties have made the biggest waves. No surprise, considering that longtime winemaker Andy…
You want to know who the California Chardonnay elite are, just take a glance at our member-ratings. The bottles that have garnered 4.6 stars or better from Wine Access come from a veritable Chardonnay aristocracy. Peter Michael ($200+) is there. So is Kistler ($200). And rubbing shoulders with these triple-digit-priced titans is DuMOL. DuMOL’s Wester…
Since their founding in 1996, DuMOL has risen to the very top of the Russian River Valley hierarchy on the strength of their Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Syrah, and Cabernet. And while DuMOL’s versatility has impressed both critics and wine lovers, their Burgundy varieties have made the biggest waves. Wester Reach shows the coastal character of…
Our buddy jumped into Napa Valley winemaking relatively late. He was no UC Davis wunderkind, but he made up for that by networking assiduously, showing up early, staying late, and never dropping the ball. After building a résumé with stints at a cult Howell Mountain Cab producer, a Pritchard Hill icon, and a Carneros Chardonnay…
You almost get the sense this winery doesn’t want to be found. The source estate behind today’s NDA-protected wine is not open to the public. Type the name into Google Maps and you get nada. For an address, if you really dig, the best you’ll find is a PO Box. That’s an impressive level of…
In 1976, a five-acre vineyard is planted in Calistoga. A close neighbor of California First Growth Chateau Montelena, it becomes a crown jewel of the area, its opulent Cabernet woven into era-defining wines from Duckhorn, Cakebread, and other blue-chip wineries. Estate-bottled Cabs run for $165 minimum. After decades, the vineyard changes hands, and a few…
