Chardonnay from anywhere except for Burgundy, the Sonoma Coast or Santa Barbara County is rarely compelling. Sure, the grape grows everywhere but I can count the inspiring ones sourced from outside those big three appellations on one hand. But when winemaker Sergio Germano pours you a glass of his electric Italian Langhe Chardonnay, you pay attention to his wine and to him.
First off, Sergio goes about 6’3”, 235 so making fun of anything of his is not a great idea. But more importantly, his rendition of Chardonnay is nothing short of delicious. Crafted from 25-35 year old vines rooted in limestone soil just outside the zone of Barolo, the wine is high toned and fresh, loaded with green apple, lemon-zest, and orange-blossom aromas and flavors. It’s a great choice for a house Chard, and it’s completely organic– a perfect compliment with spring cuisine.

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.
I’m lucky to have a few cases of this instant classic, immaculate and complex, this is a wonderfully pure expression of Chardonnay that is so distinctly Jermann. His extraordinary, multi-layered, extract-loaded whites are landmarks of contemporary winemaking. This one has a lot of nuance and depth, and finishes strongly with what Wine Spectator called, “A streak of tangy salinity.”
This is a super elegant Meursault from the family-run estate located in the village of Monthelie, between Volnay and Meursault in the heart of Burgundy’s Côte de Beaune. It leads with nutty aromas of brioche, fresh butter and delicate citrus and is extremely well structured, long and stylish with great purity of fruit.
Etienne Daulny is the latest in a very long line of Daulnys to farm Sauvignon Blanc near the tiny hamlet of Verdigny in the appellation of Sancerre. He is currently in charge of farming over twenty small parcels including some incredibly well respected fifty-year-old vines. This is a classic Sancerre, aromatically dynamic, with intense fruit, distinct minerality and blazing acidity. It’s the white wine we drink most often at home. Beautiful structure and length to this with a youthful vibrancy that shines throughout.
