If there’s one problem with the Davis Bynum wines it’s the way they get filed in New Jersey. It’s convoluted but stay with me while I peel the curtain back… Wine wholesalers are allowed to file with the state to have a one day sale on a single product. Completely insane but it is what it is.
So once again for one day only (24 HOURS) – we get special access from the winery to sell one of their wines at a glorious price. Today’s deal is flat out ridiculous. I mean really truly. Today, we’ve been given a single-vineyard Russian River Valley Chardonnay made by one of the best American Chardonnay producers ever, David Ramey. That would be great on its own, but I’m not done.
This is his River West Vineyard Chardonnay. Ready for the roll call? It has 91-points and a Wine & Spirits ‘Best Buy’, a James Suckling 92-point score and he called it, “delicate, structured and long.” And last but not least, a rave 93-point review from Wine Enthusiast who deemed the wine, “rich in style yet underpinned by elegance”.

93 Points, Wine Enthusiast
This is a tangy, well-integrated and balanced wine, rich in style yet underpinned by elegance. Green apple, Meyer lemon and wet stone accent a weighty structure, with toasted oak, nutmeg and a slight hint of crème brûlée lingering on the close
92 Points, James Suckling
Aromas of lemon peel, fresh herbs and white peaches. Medium-bodied with good weight and texture. Delicate, but structured and long. Very bright acidity. Drink or hold.
91 Points (Best Buy), Wine & Spirits
Tense and gingery, this wine’s pear-like fruit has a rainwater clarity. It’s as smooth as river stones and as brisk as the water coursing over them. A youthful 2018 that’s perfect for grilled trout.

This is truly of Sancerre’s greatest wines. It’s an incredible effort in a fantastic vintage for Sancerre in general, but even more so for my friend Dominique Roger. His single parcel ‘La Jouline’ is considered the Grand Cru vineyard of Bue. It’s crafted from 60-year old vines and given an extra year in bottle, adding incredible layers and complexity in the process. Tiny yields followed by partial barrel fermentation creates a wine with complex aromatics, explosive flavors, and a mineral-laced finish that makes it both incredible at the table with rich cuisine or a great candidate for short term aging.

The winery could never expected their Tuscan Vermentino would become as integral as it has – even 25 years later, it’s still a key piece of the puzzle for Campo Maccione. It’s an unassuming wine with great viscosity and bright, savory flavors that way overdelivers for the price. James Suckling agreed, as did Wine Enthusiast. Suckling gave it a 90 and deemed it “an interesting take on Tuscan Vermentino.” Wine Enthusiast took it up a few notches, attaching a coveted ‘Best Buy’ designate to the wine along with a 92-point review for the wine “with a sophisticated restraint.”

“The 2018 Chardonnay Hyde Vineyard marks the beginning of winemaker Joe Nielsen’s tenure at the winery. Pouring a medium yellow with a light golden hue, it’s most reserved of the flight aromatically at the moment, with yellow chamomile flowers, ripe peach, beeswax, and white flowers. Full-bodied, it retains excellent tension and focus on the palate, with apricot, orange zest, and a savory finish with a bit of spice. I suspect this will come around and open with time. Drink 2024-2030.” -Jeb Dunnuck
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.
