“Don’t forget the Côte Chalonnaise. As the Côte d’Or has priced out swathes of Burgundy lovers, this region is a treasure trove of value and more producers are upping their game.” -Vinous
Marie Jacqueson is producing Burgundy that is nothing short of magical in the backwater of Rully, proving once again to really find value, you have to get off the rue nationale. These lots of red and white Rully from Marie, our newest addition to our family of wine-growers, have been incredibly well-received with more requests for reorders than almost any other producer we’ve featured since my visit last winter. The issue is the quantity. Marie was selling her wine just fine before we met so the amounts we’ve been able to bring over have been miniscule, even on the tiny scale that great Burgundy usually measured.
For my money, Marie Jacqueson and her scarce but lights out 2021s, are must-buys for any discriminating Burgundy buyer that would prefer to have 3 or 4 bottles of Rully rather than just one of most Meursault. She makes special wines. Only 24 bottles to go round. I know, I know, it’s not enough.

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.”
If you’ve never had one of José Manuel Martínez’s wines, you’re in for an absolute treat. Jose’s estate, Couselo is located in the northern tip of Portugal in Rias Baixas. It’s a coastal wine, sourced from old and savvy Albariño vines. It’s a terrific wine that mixes wonderful stony minerality with a creamy, long finish that makes it both fantastic with anything from the sea but also just as good with a pre-meal apertif. There’s no better under $25 Labor Day white.
This is an excellent Bourgogne Blanc made in a fantastic spot in particular for growing Chardonnay. The vines here are all at least 30 years of age and impart serious character into the wine. On the nose, this leads with fresh aromas of citrus fruits and white flowers. On the palate, the wine showcases that character and intensity with refreshing acidity and a lively and persistent finish.
Herve Fabre’s Torrontes is an electric, fantastic bottle of wine for the price tag. It’s a crisp, mineral-laced white wine treat from our good friend, and one of Argentina’s very best. Crafted in Valle de Uco in the Mendoza region, this delicious white offers delicate aromas of white flowers, orange blossom with a touch of lime that adds a wonderful lift to the wine.
