Right on the edge of the Carneros AVA line, sits one of the most famous vineyards in the world, Hyde Vineyard.
The vineyard was planted by Larry Hyde himself, one of America’s greatest wine minds, and provides fruit for many of the region’s elite wineries. Sure, the Chardonnay grown there is some of the most expensive per acre, but David Ramey, Marc Aubert, Steve Kistler, Paul Lato and countless others will tell you, it’s every bit worth the price of admission.
One other winemaker who feels it’s well worth the cost is Aubert de Villaine, President and Winemaker at DRC – so much so that he went all in becoming equal partners with Larry Hyde in their Hyde de Villaine project.
It might just be one of the greatest partnerships the wine world has ever known. Together, both these wine titans have forgotten more about wine than most of us will ever know. Their work with Burgundian varietals is second to none, and together the two have built up allocation waitlists that are a mile long.
If you’ve been reading my emails for any length of time, then you already know that my decades long support for Domaine de la Romanée-Conti and their fleet of the world’s greatest Burgundies has led to a very solid relationship between Aubert de Villaine and myself.
That’s why while just about everybody else is on the outside looking in for this special collaboration, we’ve been able to secure early spots on the list for their most desired releases. Like this new 98-point Chardonnay release that made James Suckling Top 100 Wines of 2021 list!

98 Points, James Suckling
Opulent aromas of cooked apple, lemon rind, light praline and stone. Full-bodied with linear and lively acidity that runs through the wine. Energetic and bright with tightness and structure. Steely. Drinkable now, but better in 2023.

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.
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.
One of the best places to look for great Tuesday nighters are the sandy, limestone-laden hills of Asti. And within Asti, there is no white wine calling card that holds a candle to Moscato. Here it is king. Gianni Doglia naturally farms a tiny estate in the picturesque hamlet of Castagnole Lanze. His Moscato is the product of old vines, vinfied without oak to preserve its incredible fruit. This is serious, high-quality and hand-harvested Moscat, that oozes with sweet tropical fruits and a hint of minerality that stays on your tongue with each sip. This is also the perfect wine for anyone searching for a low alcohol option as well.
Elena Walch’s newly released 2022 Pinot Bianco continues to be the best example of Pinot Blanc anywhere. She’s the undisputed queen. There’s so much energy in this new release. Super light in color, with a busy nose that boasts ripe aromas of citrus, granny smith apple with a hint of freshly mowed grass. Made entirely in stainless steel, the wine is expressive, fresh and finishes as clean and tight as can be. Definitely will continue the run of 90+ scores once this one is reviewed.
