Clos Julien is tiny winery with a reputation of sourcing the best of California’s coastal vineyard sites for fine, elegant renditions of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. Their latest release of Chardonnay comes from a small site on the second ridge off the Pacific Ocean, Spanish Springs.
Spanish Springs is a low-yielding, south-facing vineyard with vines rooted in very limestone and marine shale-based soils. Other wines from this vineyard are already going for $65 a bottle and are worth every penny. But due to our ongoing house white partnership with the Clos Julien team – we come in at a crazy good under $20/bottle price.
The newly released 2020 Clos Julien Chardonnay Price Canyon is
an absolutely phenomenal, flawlessly crafted single-vineyard Chardonnay. As bright and refreshing as you could want, it hits with clean, pristine green apple fruits, pears and citrus notes with great minerality and a lingering, bright finish. It’s a fantastic wine for summer, pairs great with those summer tomatoes, corn and freshly caught fish. Sometimes instead of worrying about what’s to come with future vintages, you just have to enjoy what is in front of you.
Delicious by itself as an aperitif but a fantastic foil to the cuisine of summer, scallops, grilled poultry, and summer corn.
This is the first time we’ve been able to offer this electric wine from Jean-Claude as in most vintages, most of the wine is sold directly to private customers and local restaurants. Man, am I happy to have gotten my hands on this one. The Cuvee de Beracius is classic, textured old-vine Chardonnay, done in steel to preserve the inherent fruitiness and pure aromatics of the best of white Burgundy. Pears, apple, white peaches and a hint of ginger.

This is a killer Riesling from one of the most trusted names in Alsace. The wine opens up to a bevy of different smells citrus and stone fruits, ripe melon and a hint of petrol. On the mouth, dry and crisp flavors of peach, pear and orange tang with a stony minerality and great tension. The mouthfeel on this is super long and expressive– a real treat with most food pairings at a true Tuesday night price.
This wine is textbook Sancerre Blanc from the village of Bué, the highest in elevation in Sancerre with the most calcareous soil. It is a chiseled, tightly wound and incredibly complex Sauvignon Blanc, which I’d argue is one of the best in the world. In the 2019 vintage, the Carrou has a brilliant pale green color and soaring aromatics of green apples, pear and jasmine.
94 Points, James Suckling
Riccardo Cotarella is a winemaking superstar and the most famous and well respected consultant in Italy. Robert Parker Jr. himself heaped perhaps the highest praise possible, referring to him as “one of the most influential personalities in the world of wine in the last 20 years.” His 2018 Donnachiara Greco di Tufo is outstanding, bright with fresh citrus fruit, Asian pear and notes of Turkish apricots with a killer mineral streak. Don’t miss it.
