Finding a good $60 bottle from the CdN is a tall task, so when I find a fantastic one for under $30/btl on cases, I don’t just dip my toes in, I dive in head first. So when the bottle is from one of our favorites, you know I take every bottle they let me.
For about a decade or so, the high elevation, organically farmed vineyards of Lydia Cornu have been THE go-to source for elegant red Burgundy at Nicholas Wines. The 2021 vintage is particularly fine though, the product of the first cool vintage in years which yielded wildly aromatic, low alcohol Pinot Noir with pristine, pure fruit that finishes fine and fresh and absolutely sings with food.
The only downside and this is a trend that seems to have no end in sight in France and in Burgundy in particular, there are precious few cases to go around. So few, that I swear to god we even lost a few cases from open inventory as I sat down to write this offer (luckily we had a P.O.!).
No estate in Burgundy quite delivers the bang per buck in Red Burgundy. The couple have been managing vineyards in both the Hautes-Côtes and the Côte for decades, growing more savvy along with the vines, and adapting to the changes in weather patterns over the years. 2021 was a year in which some estates struggled, but the overwhelming quality in their CdN Villages bottling is almost staggering.

Not Eligible for Futher Discount-From famed winemaker, Robert Foley comes an absolute delight of a bottle of wine. A seamless Bordeaux blend of 80% Cabernet, 17% Merlot and 3% Petit Verdot that is incredibly smoothly now but should have another decade easy of prime drinking. It is the definition of a Saturday Night bottle of wine. One to cherish for a special occasion.
This is a sensational single-vineyard Merlot made from incredibly tiny clusters, full of some of the most elegant, intensely structured fruit from high atop Sonoma Mountain. Beautiful weight and balance with aromas of blueberries, black currants, sage and a hint of cocoa. It’s got a full, plush mouthfeel, pristine and vibrant fruit and a wonderful smooth finish. Thanks to Chad’s big bet on himself, he was able to make a knockout Sonoma Mountain beauty, without the need for any middleman, helping us to enjoy one of his best creations at an outstanding price.

Avignonesi’s wines took Nicholas Wines by storm last year with their ‘Grifi’ SuperTuscan, a highly rated, highly delicious bottle that put the winery firmly on my radar. It’s a great bottle of wine, but at this price – it completely overdelivers which is exactly what you’re looking for.

Since the late 1990’s Penner-Ash has been viewed as one of Oregon’s top wineries making gorgeous wines in the Yamhill-Carlton AVA. In the 2021 vintage considered to be one of Oregon’s all-time great years, the 2021 Willamette Valley Pinot Noir that Lynn crafted is gorgeous, a silky tightly woven number that mixes red and black fruits with some sage and baking spices and a savory finish. It’s got some nice weight to it and structure which suggests it’ll age well for the next 10-15 years though it’s already drinking beautifully in its youth.
