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.

If you’ve never heard of Bisci, let’s start here. Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate called Giuseppe Bisci’s Verdicchio “one of the finest I’ve ever tasted,” and noted that “Verdicchio is one of the joys of Italian oenology that rarely gets the respect it deserves, and few producers do it better than Bisci.” A staple at $85/bottle for both French Laundry and Eleven Madison Park. “Verdicchio is one of the joys of Italian oenology that rarely gets the respect it deserves, and few producers do it better than Bisci.” – The Wine Advocate
Just in time, we got back Vincent Ricard’s all-time great white wine bargain. This is a crisp, clean and flat out delicious Loire Valley Sauvignon Blanc. The protege to the Silex-style of Dagueneau – who over the last 15 years has produced flawless and beloved white wines that at last count were on the wine lists of over 36 Michelin-starred restaurants. This is a great house white and one that can surely hold its own with just about everything on the table.
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.
Glistening pale yellow-green to the rim, infused with mouth-watering aromas of ripe apple, pear and quince, and crushed almonds with honey and rich creamy middle and a fantastic rush of acidity and minerality that are present throughout. A calling card of Bonhomme’s Vire-Clesse, if you closed your eyes and took a sip, it would have you convinced you were drinking Meursault at least a 3x price tag.
