If you ever get the chance – visit Corsin in late February. That’s when he tastes through each of his 28 tanks of Saint Véran and Pouilly Fuissé, deciding at that point which wines will go into barrel, which will stay in tank and which will go directly into bottle – each method selected to bring out the truest essence of that individual tank.
The results are remarkable and leave no doubt that Corsin is the master of white Burgundy. Period. The Tirage Précoce cuvée is one that went in bottle right away, with no oak aging, its crisp green apple and crunchy pear fruit with a mineral streak a mile long a perfect representation of the limestone-laden hills of Saint Véran.
Domaine Corsin’s release of 2018 Saint Veran Tirage Precoce is a an electric bottle of wine. The Tirage Precoce cuvée is one that went in bottle right away, with no oak aging, its crisp green apple and crunchy pear fruit with a mineral streak a mile long a perfect representation of the limestone-laden hills of Saint Véran.

Pair with just about anything but sings with richer fish dishes, pork, chicken and anything in a cream sauce.
Etienne Daulny is the latest in a very long line of Daulnys to farm Sauvignon Blanc near the tiny hamlet of Verdigny in the appellation of Sancerre. He is currently in charge of farming over twenty small parcels including some incredibly well respected fifty-year-old vines. This is a classic Sancerre, aromatically dynamic, with intense fruit, distinct minerality and blazing acidity. It’s the white wine we drink most often at home. Beautiful structure and length to this with a youthful vibrancy that shines throughout.
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.
93 Points, Decanter
Of course, the Trefethens’ Chardonnay history is well documented. It dates back to the Judgement of Paris and the 1979 Wine World Olympics hosted by the French publication Gault & Millau, where their Chardonnay finished first overall. That pursuit of excellence is still just as strong as ever, as evidenced by the family’s most recent Chardonnay bottling. It’s a 93-point beauty that absolutely dazzles, especially at its incredibly modest price tag.
Gold Medal (Best in Show), 2023 Mundus Vini International Tasting
The area has also been isolated from the rest of Spain for generations, which has kept the wine prices far lower than wines of this quality would be anywhere else in the world. That’s why, despite having the Torres family name on the bottle and the consistent huge press (including the Gold Medal & Best in Show at the 2023 Mundus Vini International Wine Awards in Germany), these wines can still be scooped up for under $20/bottle. It’s like the Sancerre pricing of yesteryear.
