I don’t want to sugar coat this. We are ahead of the curve and have locked into a substantial amount of pre-tariff wine but these will not be available for very long and the offers will be earlier than a typical year.
Here’s my advice. I’ll be laying out several of these over the next 30 to 45 days. I’ll let you know what they are. If you see something you generally drink – even something you want to be drinking on a hot summer day in June or July, I’d buy it by the case now. Prices will spike and even worse – many skus won’t be imported at all this year.
That being said – the first is a doozy. Many of you fell in love with one of our new producers in 2020. The fourth generation of the Cherrier Family produced one of our most popular Sancerres of the year.
Precious little of their wine ever makes it stateside and today’s wine is no exception. The 2019 La Croix Poignant’ is a single-vineyard selection of older vines – 25 years all the way up to 70 years of age, with the older vines imparting a lot of character and depth. Harvested by hand, every care is taken with this very special cuvee.

It’s an electric white Burgundy, with a limestone-laced aromatic profile of green apple, pear and hazelnut. Refined and high-toned, the pure, delicious fruit that is a hallmark of this terrific vintage, finishes long and fresh, with a mile-long mineral streak.
The newly released Riesling Feinherb 2021 is a lively, juicy wine with an elegant bouquet of minerals, wet stone and ripe fruit. On the palate, the wine’s slight off-dry component is beautifully balanced by the steely acidity typical of the Mosel. Because this is freshly released, the fruit is vibrant and succulent and it comes in somewhere between off-dry and semi-sweet. It’s a great example of Riesling, especially at the price.
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.
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.
