For as many years as I’ve had a restaurant, I’ve been ordering wines from Domaine Leflaive for my wine list. They’re a true iconic Burgundian producer who many will tell you simply makes the best white wines in the world. You can find them in more than half the Michelin starred list throughout the world.
But recently, Leflaive has increased their holdings, especially in the budding Mâcon-Verzé, and they did it by purchasing another of Burgundy’s treasured sites, Domaine de la Jobeline. Jobeline has been making gorgeous white burgundies for years.
The 2019 Domaine de la Jobeline Allure Mâcon-Verzé is actually a follow-up to the 2018 vintage which Decanter gave a whopping 96-point score to at their annual Awards competition. For one of greatest Burgundy vintages of all time though, they didn’t even bother submit the sample for a score. It doesn’t matter. The allocation has completely vanished as soon as it was released. Luckily, we’ve been locked into this deal for months.

90 Points, Vinous
From Soave Classico’s most privileged volcanic-limestone hillsides, comes a brand new release that is going to win a lot of people over. This is a high-tone northern Italian white bursting with white flowers, honeysuckle and stone fruits. Crisp and clean, finishing juicy and surprisingly long. A perfect complement to all kinds of seafood dishes, summer vegetables, poultry and light cheeses. There is no old-vine, small lot Pinot Grigio that exists for anywhere near the price of this one.
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.
94 Points, Jeb Dunnuck
Every single year, Adam Tolmach’s Bien Nacido Pinot Noir and Chardonnay are showered with huge scores. It’s like death and taxes. The last time one of his wines failed to receive at least a 90 from The Wine Advocate was back in 2005! In Cali’s “bounce back” 2021 vintage, you know the big score trend continued. The new release has yet to be reviewed by the usual suspects (Wine Advocate, Vinous) but Jeb Dunnuck did get his hands on it and gave it a rave 94-point review where he highlighted the “supple mouthfeel, terrific balance and clean finish.”
This is a gem from Dominique’s single parcel ‘La Jouline’ widely considered the Grand Cru vineyard of Bue. This is one of those bottles that only now is becoming available in quantities large enough to email. 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.
