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.

Every year, Pierre Sparr’s Alsacian Riesling is one of the top scoring wines in the under $20 category. There’s a consistency there and consumers know they can count on a Riesling that is aromatic, fruity, elegant, clean and vibrant. Pierre Sparr wines are extremely food-friendly especially in the widely praised 2021 vintage where quality rose to an all-time high. It’s a bone-dry beauty with layers of citrus fruits, framed by wet stone and mineral character that adds dimension.
Top notch Chenin grown on a biodynamically farmed parcel of gravel over limestone and flint. Vinified dry in steel with no wood aging. From the glass, complex Aromas of Anjou pear, citron, white flowers and cream soar with just a touch of jasmine and honey. On the palate, the wine is rich yet still bone dry with a vibrant core of peach and pear fruits and a fresh crackling of saline and minerality. The zipped up acidity makes this wine both fantastic at the table and a great candidate for aging.
95 Points, Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate
The former assistant winemaker and apprentice for Helen Turley at Marcassin, Matt Courtney left to start something special at Arista in 2013 and is well on his way. The winery has expanded, their waitlist for bottle allocations now stands at 18-months and every critic in America raves about these wines. His newly released 2019 Arista Russian River Valley Chard is a gem, one that earned 95 pts from Parker’s Wine Advocate who called it, “wonderfully inviting to drink and impressive quality.”
Just in time, we got back Vincent Ricard’s all-time great white wine bargain. This is a crisp, clean and flat out delicious Loire Valley Sauvignon Blanc. The protege to the Silex-style of Dagueneau – who over the last 15 years has produced flawless and beloved white wines that at last count were on the wine lists of over 36 Michelin-starred restaurants. This is a great house white and one that can surely hold its own with just about everything on the table.
