The first is a stunning 1er cru Chablis from Nicholas Wines favorite, Domaine Laroche. It’s drawn off of 1er cru vineyard Vaudevey, which sits in a cool and narrow valley. If you haven’t heard of it, that’s ok, the entire vineyard is split among just three owners with Domaine Laroche owning about a quarter of it.
The valley receives only a sliver of the sun each day, which helps preserve acidity, and because of this it is the last vineyard in the Domaine Laroche portfolio to be harvested each year. The other factor is the amazing slope – 30 to 50 degrees – yielding perfectly irrigated vines but makes hand harvesting a must and a bear.

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.
A Nicholas Wines favorite every vintage and the perennial by-the-glass Sancerre at Gramercy Tavern and Danny Meyer’s other Union Square hot spots, this is always a fantastic bottle of Sancerre. Super intense aromatics with crisp stone fruits, Asian pear and that signature Bué minerality streak. Vibrant fruit and acidity with tremendous balance and depth. The perfect pair for seafood, and a wine that you can enjoy now and over the next 5-7 years.
Almondo Roero Arneis Bricco delle Ciliegie Le Rive (Gold Label) is made from the estate’s oldest single plot of vines within the already heralded Bricco Delle Ciliegie (hill of cherries). This is only the fourth vintage of this label but it’s already considered by many to be one of the best white wines in all of Italy. Juicy peaches, pears, and a hint of almonds on the nose. The mouth is dense and fleshy, full of bright fruit, minerality and salinity notes with a touch of spice that’s the highlight of a finish that lingers and lingers in the best way. It’s an absolute treat that I really wish I could snag more than once a year.

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.
