I figured if I’m going to offer up three great white wines that you might not be familiar with, it’s only right I throw it in a sampler pack at a killer introductory price for those of you who take the leap. This is the ultimate spring sipper case, perfect for hosting or for sipping by the pool. Crisp, mineral white wines that cost less than $20/btl but taste like a $50. My kind of wine. This year, I snagged one great selection from each of Europe’s Big 3 winemaking countries…
Each sampler case includes 4 bottles of each of the following:
Familia Torres Celeste Sur Lies Verdejo 2021 (92 pts, James Suckling)
Domaine Saint Amant Côtes du Rhône La Borry 2020 (Crisp, high-altitude French white)
Brunori Verdicchio ‘Le Gemme’ 2021 (Day 1 staple at Restaurant Nicholas and Balthazar)

2022 was an absolutely perfect vintage in this respect and unfortunately, I think it will be one of the last, if not THE last. As winegrower Jean-Marc Brocard reported to Decanter: “When we taste the wines, we feel that the balance between acidity and ripeness is very good. It’s a classic style of Chablis. In the end, even after such a heat during summertime, we stay in a cool year reference.” He also alluded to the ageability of the vintage, saying “Let’s give them time, we must let nature do its work.”
92 Points (Best Buy), Wine Enthusiast – 90 Points, James Suckling
The winery could never expected their Tuscan Vermentino would become as integral as it has – even 25 years later, it’s still a key piece of the puzzle for Campo Maccione. It’s an unassuming wine with great viscosity and bright, savory flavors that way overdelivers for the price. James Suckling agreed, as did Wine Enthusiast. Suckling gave it a 90 and deemed it “an interesting take on Tuscan Vermentino.” Wine Enthusiast took it up a few notches, attaching a coveted ‘Best Buy’ designate to the wine along with a 92-point review for the wine “with a sophisticated restraint.”
From just west of Sancerre, Vincent’s vines are tended organically in flint-laden, calcareous soil which lends a great brightness to the wine. The wine is crisp and aromatic Sauvignon, and is a superb choice for a “cocktail” wine, as an aperitif or to accompany just about anything from sea.

“The 2018 Chardonnay Hyde Vineyard marks the beginning of winemaker Joe Nielsen’s tenure at the winery. Pouring a medium yellow with a light golden hue, it’s most reserved of the flight aromatically at the moment, with yellow chamomile flowers, ripe peach, beeswax, and white flowers. Full-bodied, it retains excellent tension and focus on the palate, with apricot, orange zest, and a savory finish with a bit of spice. I suspect this will come around and open with time. Drink 2024-2030.” -Jeb Dunnuck
