Domaine Reverdy-Ducroux traces its roots back to 1550 and is absolutely thriving under the direction of 14th generation winemaker Laurent Reverdy. Laurent has transformed the historic estate to best capture the individual essence of each of their distinct 70 micro-plots and his work has paid off hugely.
The estate gained enormous popularity in the 1970s when it became the go-to for the French Michelin scene. Since then, it’s become a restaurant favorite at some of the top culinary spots around the world. and became the go-to restaurant white in some of the top spots around the world.
Their 2022 ‘Les Vignes Silex’ Sancerre is a fantastic bottle of Sancerre and comes way less than anything you’re going to see with ‘Silex on the label. For those of you who don’t know silex soil, it’s a unique flinty clay soil that’s cut with limestone, which absolutely sings with Sauvignon Blanc. It imparts distinctive mineral qualities to the grapes, resulting in wines that are vibrant, complex, and incredibly expressive. The greatest bottles in all of Sancerre, Dagueneau’s Silex and Vacheron’s Les Romains have the same soil.

The Zenato family has built up quite the reputation for delivering exceptional value with their red and whites in Veneto. Their Pinot Grigio is a particularly great value, punching way above its weight class. Delicately scented and soft on the palate, it offers classic citrus and floral notes in a balanced elegant style. It’s smooth and refreshing with a long, pleasant finish. Great with food.
It’s hard to beat a great value white wine and this one is a at least a cut above the rest. One prominant industry insider called the 2022 edition, “the best white wine by any within $20/cs of this price.” It’s super crisp with a great mineral streak, and was carefully picked by hand when the temperature is coolest and is kept cool all the way into the press. From there, the effect of the mineral soil takes over, providing great finesse and freshness in every bottle. This white blend has great backbone and a lot of juicy fruit coming through behind aromas of flowers and stone fruits. At this price, it’s a no brainer.

“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
The newly released 2022 Domaine Laroche Chablis Saint Martin has some big shoes to fill as the last four vintages have earned 92-points or higher, but the early indications are that this is line with previous vintages if not even a little bit ahead at this stage. The problem is – there’s almost none to go around with much smaller yields. Still this is beautiful and crisp, with good focus, energy and depth. I get the signature green fruits on the nose, with some Asian pear, and a hint of jasmine blossom. There’s a beautiful mineral streak that highlights this one. It’s a fantastic White Burg for the price.
