The original Huet vineyard is nearly 9 hA. It has the richest soils of the domaine’s three crus—a deep limestone-clay—and the wines are generally the estate’s most approachable.
Sourced from several plots all situated in the lieu-dit of Les Boucauds, this cuvée employs close to 50% of the Sauvignon Blanc planted on the estate. Entirely from terres blanches soils – marls and clays over Kimmeridgian limestone – this wine represents a pure expression of this site as well as the deft winemaking of Stéphane Riffault.
This is stunning from the start, with a silky and refined feel despite the panoply of dried quince, fig, pear and apricot flavors that are exotic in nature. Lovely green tea, orange blossom and persimmon notes fill in the background.
The Thomas-Labaille Sancerre Les Monts Damnés Chavignol 2023 is an elegant expression of Sauvignon Blanc from one of Sancerre's most celebrated vineyards. With vibrant citrus notes, hints of white peach, and a subtle mineral backbone, this wine offers exceptional freshness and depth.
Michel Delhommeau Muscadet Le Clos de la Bourgeonnais 2022 is a small-production gem hand-selected by Jon-David Headrick for its exceptional expression of terroir.
This north-facing limestone site is cool and late ripening. In a warm year like 2019 its quality soars. There is such a fine acidity and outstanding length. I was really blown away by this, and can’t wait to see how the fruit and acidity entwine further with some bottle age. Nervous and tense, this warrants attention.
The Veuve du Vernay Rosé is a sparkling wine that you can buy by the case without breaking the bank. It is simply an unbeatable deal that should be a dazzling hit at any festive occasion. The rosé offers nice soft red fruit on the palate with a richness that truly stands out against all other bargain sparklers.
E.H. Taylor Single Barrel Bourbon is one of many versions crafted by E.H. Taylor and still produced at the Buffalo Trace Distillery. This single-barrel bourbon was crafted from Mash Bill #1, like other great blends such as Eagle Rare, Buffalo Trace, and George T. Stagg.
The 2018 Domaine Huet Vouvray Le Mont Moelleux is a captivating Chenin Blanc with a clear, deep, and flinty aroma that exudes pure minerality. On the palate, it balances lush intensity with vibrant tension, delivering elegance and vitality in every sip.
With cellars located in the charming, hilltop town of Sancerre, Jean-Laurent and Jean-Dominique Vacheron have vineyards in mainly the eastern part of Sancerre on hard, flinty soils as well as smaller holding on softer limestone and clay soils.
Thibaud Boudignon has gone through the three stages of small-producer cultdom. First, there were the tweets and instagram posts. Maybe a foreign blog or small magazine article. The allusions to his wine were rapturous, but enigmatic and mostly from overseas.
An open attack on the palate where one discovers grapefruit and lemon. The finish is reminiscent of vegetation. 90% Sauvignon Blanc, 10% Chardonnay. Jean-Francois Roy has been making wines from Chateau de Valencay since 1989 and now has over 69 acres of vineyards in the villages of La Vernelle, Fontguenand, Meusnes, and Lye.
