Mallory and Benjamin Talmard are not modern, tinkering winemakers. They have a singular focus; growing Chardonnay grapes and the producing the purest form of the variety that both reflects the steep hillsides of the Maconnais and their incredibly hard work. Their focus is old-school and for me, this is the kind of grower I seek out when it comes to white Burgundy.
Growers of Chardonnay on the limestone soils of southern Burgundy since the 17th century, the Talmards currently work 30 hectares of Chardonnay vines spanning five villages. The vines are old, averaging 40 years. The Talmards use only stainless steel in their winemaking, they don’t want the influence of oak in any of their wines, just the sunny, opulent fruit and the crisp, saline minerality unique to Burgundy.
Very few producers master that special White Burgundy vibrancy with more care than Mallory and Benjamin Talmard. Talmard Macon Uchizy is Chardonnay in its purest form, juicy, vibrant and so food-friendly.

This is a spectacular new release – a flawlessly crafted, high energy coastal Chardonnay from one of California’s hottest spots. As bright and refreshing as you could want, it hits with clean, pristine green apple fruits, pears and citrus notes with a hint of that limestone-influenced minerality creeping in on the finish. It’s a fantastic wine for summer, the perfect pair with mixed seafood, summer tomatoes, corn and freshly caught fish.
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.
The Lauverjat Pouilly Fume 2021 was born just across the Loire River from Sancerre, where the soil is rich with river deposits, Portlandian limestone, and Kimmerdigian limestone. It really is the triple threat of soil, and this flint influence gives the wine incredible depth and beauty. It was entered in the Gilbert & Gaillard International Wine Tasting, where it won the gold medal and was called “a multi-award winning Pouilly-Fume made from old-vines” in a review that ended with a simple declaration: “As good as it gets.”
It’s no wonder this is a hot little ticket amongst some of NYC’s best restaurants; this is a killer wine at a great price. The 2022 Petit Chablis has an attractive nose of citrus rind, white flowers, and wet stone. In the palate, the wine is racy and mineral with just a touch of salinity. The hallmark of the great 2022s will be tension and length and Sébastien’s little wine has both in spades. The acidic/mineral cut will make this fantastic at the table and a great candidate for short term aging.
