Domaine Barmès-Buecher is a family affair from southern Alsace, striving to create the most expressive and powerful wines that Mother Nature will allow. The domaine is completely biodynamic, an ancient and organic way of farming using no chemicals. It’s a very intense way to farm, but it’s absolutely worth it.
Maxime, who learned everything he knows from his late, amazing winemaking father François, has been praised by Parker’s Wine Advocate as an extremely promising young talent, writing of
“his great passion and intellectual reflection—the idea of a harmonic and sane growth of the vines through biodynamic farming and a true and balanced reflection of the complex french terroir idea (which considers the soil, the vine and the vintage as an entity) in the wines.”
Parker’s Wine Advocate would also call Barmes “the purest and most authentic expression of terroir, vintage, and grape variety,” which, especially coming from the most respected wine publication in the world, is about as emphatic an endorsement as I’ve seen. Well deserved.

Welcome to the dark heart of dry riesling where the minerality is like a curtain pulled to shut out the sun on a hot day. Giant concentration, but so fresh and so refined! Hard to believe that a wine built on this scale could end with such subtlety and delicacy. Matured in 600 liter oak casks. From biodynamically grown grapes. Drink or hold.

It’s an electric white Burgundy, with a limestone-laced aromatic profile of green apple, pear and hazelnut. Refined and high-toned, the pure, delicious fruit that is a hallmark of this terrific vintage, finishes long and fresh, with a mile-long mineral streak.
Gold Medal (Best in Show), 2023 Mundus Vini International Tasting
The area has also been isolated from the rest of Spain for generations, which has kept the wine prices far lower than wines of this quality would be anywhere else in the world. That’s why, despite having the Torres family name on the bottle and the consistent huge press (including the Gold Medal & Best in Show at the 2023 Mundus Vini International Wine Awards in Germany), these wines can still be scooped up for under $20/bottle. It’s like the Sancerre pricing of yesteryear.
92 Points, Wine Enthusiast
This is a huge favorite of folks in the Red Bank area. It’s a bold, unapologetic Chardonnay with juicy notes of peach, lemon sorbet, baking spice and vanilla with a rich, creamy middle and plenty of natural acidity to balance it out. The lemon vanilla finish is perhaps the wine’s calling card or the sheer drinkability of it all. Either way, it’s a Chard that people adore. It’s no wonder Wine Enthusiast called this, “a big win for fans of this bold style”.
This is a super elegant Meursault from the family-run estate located in the village of Monthelie, between Volnay and Meursault in the heart of Burgundy’s Côte de Beaune. It leads with nutty aromas of brioche, fresh butter and delicate citrus and is extremely well structured, long and stylish with great purity of fruit.
