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.

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.
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.
Year in, year out Château Turcaud produces one of the best white wine values in the world. It’s long been found on Michelin-starred wine lists in Paris and we’ve had it at the restaurant since Day 1. If you’ve ever tried this stunning, classic Bordeaux of Sauvignon Blanc, Semillon, Sauvignon Gris and Muscadelle, then you know why. The new 2022 vintage has arrived and it’s beaming with energy and pure stone fruits. This is a beauty as always.
The newly released Riesling Feinherb 2021 is a lively, juicy wine with an elegant bouquet of minerals, wet stone and ripe fruit. On the palate, the wine’s slight off-dry component is beautifully balanced by the steely acidity typical of the Mosel. Because this is freshly released, the fruit is vibrant and succulent and it comes in somewhere between off-dry and semi-sweet. It’s a great example of Riesling, especially at the price.
