This one comes from Bodegas Garzon, a winery that is easily the best in the country but is making a push as one of South America’s elite. They are consistently racking up some big scores and great press and are essentially the first to break through each and every barrier with American wine writers.
Consider this: they are the first winery in Uruguay to win Wine Enthusiast’s “Winery of the Year” award, the first to be featured in Wine Spectator’s “Top 100 Wines of the Year,” the first to be featured in Wine Spectator’s “NY Wine Experience,” and have already become South America’s largest Albarino producer.
These guys are working from a winemaking oasis, and they’re not messing around. The region is tiny but ideal, located amongst rolling hills that meet the sea in a tiny, low-traffic town famous for farming. With the influence of the sea, the heavily sloped vineyards, and a soft, stony soil, the wines here are both elegant and complex with juicy, tropical-fruit flavors, backed by minerality, salinity and a strong acid backbone.

Aromas of gooseberry, finger lime and ginger lead off in this refined but refreshing white, with saline-laced grapefruit and Meyer lemon at the core, followed by a clean finish.

For years now, I’ve been absolutely delighted by the White Burgundies at Domaine Corsin. There’s really good reason for that. The Corsin’s holdings in Pouilly-Fuissé include many of the best situated sites in the appellation. This wine comes from a selection of older vines grown in these limestone soils. The current vintage is simply showing fantastic at the moment. The 2020 Corsin Domain’s Pouilly-Fuissé ‘Vieilles Vignes’ displays a bright golden hue with a hint of green. Its subtle bouquet with a woody-vanilla note enhances the slightly sharp, sophisticated fullness on the palate mingled with a generous underlying impression of toasted bread.

“The nose is delicate, but doesn’t lack subtlety, as the freshness of citrus blossoms and grapefruit mingles with drier aromas of tea leaves and cumin. That balance continues on the palate, where green apples play with camomile, while accelerating acid recalls the citrus of the nose.” -Wine Enthusiast
Glistening pale yellow-green to the rim, infused with mouth-watering aromas of ripe apple, pear and quince, and crushed almonds with honey and rich creamy middle and a fantastic rush of acidity and minerality that are present throughout. A calling card of Bonhomme’s Vire-Clesse, if you closed your eyes and took a sip, it would have you convinced you were drinking Meursault at least a 3x price tag.
Stephan Steinmetz is a star in the Mosel wine region. His old vines are rooted in Kimmeridgian limestone, the exact same vein of rock that winds its way from Sancerre through Chablis and Champagne to its final out-cropping here in the Obermosel. His Elbling is glorious — both completely unlike anything I’ve ever had and also eerily familiar. The color is almost clear, some might call it silver. A stunning nose of green apples and lemon peel gives way to fresh pear and bright citrus fruits on the palate. It’s a stunningly focused wine with a healthy dose of minerality and acid zip, not unlike great Sancerre/Chablis and bone dry.
