It’s been a long time since I’ve been able to take Melissa up to New York City to eat and we are missing some of our favorite spots. It’s always been one of our traditions to head into the city on Monday Nights and try out some of the city’s “can’t miss” spots.
One of those spots was Molly Nickerson’s Marea, in addition to great cuisine – they’re masters of finding phenomenal wines to pair with their oysters and caviar or one of their great Crudo creations.
The last time we were there – it took Melissa ordering her second glass (before the first course was cleared) for me to realize I might have been missing something. I really think she might’ve let me go the entire dinner without telling me how good it was!
There it was though – a perfectly dialed in, piercing mineral Sancerre courtesy of Foucher Lebrun. And at 30 bucks a glass, worth every penny.
When NYC’s restaurants suddenly shuttered last year – I was able to snatch up hundreds of cases of abandoned Sancerre from the top accounts in the city. Of course, by now, you would think that ship would have sailed, but last week when I was trying to procure a few Mother’s Day bottles for Melissa – I stumbled onto more than I was banking on.

Every year, Pierre Sparr’s Alsacian Riesling is one of the top scoring wines in the under $20 category. There’s a consistency there and consumers know they can count on a Riesling that is aromatic, fruity, elegant, clean and vibrant. Pierre Sparr wines are extremely food-friendly especially in the widely praised 2021 vintage where quality rose to an all-time high. It’s a bone-dry beauty with layers of citrus fruits, framed by wet stone and mineral character that adds dimension.
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.
We’re nearing the end of what was a flawlessly crafted, high energy coastal Chardonnay release from one of California’s hottest spots. It’s still every bit as bright and refreshing as you could want and it hits with clean, pristine green apple fruits, pears and citrus notes with a hint of that limestone-influenced minerality. It’s a fantastic wine for all seasons, the perfect pair with mixed seafood, summer tomatoes, corn and freshly caught fish.
Stephan Steinmetz is a star in the Mosel wine region. His old vines are rooted in Kimmeridgian limestone, the exact same vein of rock that winds its way from Sancerre through Chablis and Champagne to its final out-cropping here in the Obermosel. His Elbling is glorious — both completely unlike anything I’ve ever had and also eerily familiar. The color is almost clear, some might call it silver. A stunning nose of green apples and lemon peel gives way to fresh pear and bright citrus fruits on the palate. It’s a stunningly focused wine with a healthy dose of minerality and acid zip, not unlike great Sancerre/Chablis and bone dry.
