Domaine Gérard Tremblay Chablis Premier Cru Fourchaume 2023
$46
This wine hails from one of the most prized Premier Cru vineyards in Chablis—Fourchaume, known for its sun-soaked slopes just northwest of the Grands Crus. The 2023 vintage brings striking energy: citrus blossoms, oyster shell minerality, and a whisper of salted lemon. Tremblay, a fifth-generation family domaine, is known for crafting clean, expressive Chablis without oak, allowing the Kimmeridgian limestone to shine through with clarity and finesse.
Domaine Roger Lassarat Saint-Véran Prestige 2023
$44
From the southernmost edge of Bourgogne in the Mâconnais, this Saint-Véran balances charm with structure. The “Prestige” cuvée comes from the domaine’s oldest vines—some over 60 years old—planted in limestone-rich soils which give the wine lift and elegance. Expect ripe orchard fruit, white flowers, and a creamy texture carried by a bright mineral spine. Lassarat farms on steep slopes by hand, often harvesting at dawn to preserve freshness in the fruit.
Domaine Françoise et Denis Clair Saint-Aubin Blanc 2023
$56
This wine is a hidden gem from a rising village tucked between Puligny and Chassagne-Montrachet. The Clair family, based in the hamlet of Gamay, is revered for coaxing purity and poise from their cool-climate terroirs. The 2023 Saint-Aubin is delicate and crystalline—think white peach, almond blossom, and crushed stone. It’s fermented with indigenous yeasts and aged in neutral oak, striking a perfect harmony between fruit and minerality.
Domaine Michel Bouzereau et Fils Meursault Genevrières Premier Cru 2023
$189
A classic from one of Meursault’s crown jewels, Genevrières—named after the juniper bushes which once grew there. Bouzereau’s version is all about refinement: layers of lemon curd, hazelnut, and flinty minerality with a graceful finish. The domaine works with old vines and minimal intervention, aging the wine slowly in fine-grain oak barrels from select forests. This is benchmark Bourgogne blanc, built for both pleasure and aging.
Domaine Claudie Jobard Rully La Chaume 2023
$46
La Chaume is one of Rully’s most expressive sites, and Claudie Jobard—a former vineyard consultant for the Hospices de Beaune—brings her deep viticultural knowledge to every bottle. Her 2023 vintage is aromatic and textured: pear, acacia, and subtle spice ride a silky frame. Jobard farms organically and lets each site speak clearly. This wine is a reminder that elegance isn’t reserved for the Côte d'Or alone.
Domaine Joseph Pascal Volnay 2023
$67
Volnay is known for its finesse, and Joseph Pascal delivers a quintessential expression of this village. The 2023 Volnay is perfumed and pretty—wild strawberries, violets, and soft earth glide across the palate with fine-grained tannins. The domaine works with old vines and avoids aggressive extraction, yielding a wine that’s both vibrant and light on its feet. A graceful Bourgogne rouge for lovers of nuance.
Domaine Jean-Michel Gaunoux Pommard Premier Cru Les Perrières 2019
$74
From a Premier Cru site which lives up to its name—“Perrières” means “stony ground”—this Pommard is bold, structured, and deeply mineral. The 2019 vintage offers black cherry, crushed granite, and savory herbs, with powerful tannins balanced by freshness. Jean-Michel Gaunoux is a quiet master of traditional winemaking, aging this wine in mostly used barrels for a long élevage. Built to age, yet already thrilling.
Domaine Parent Monthélie 2022
$83
Parent, a historic family domaine run by sisters Anne and Catherine, brings elegance to Monthélie, a lesser-known village tucked between Meursault and Volnay. The 2022 shows juicy red cherry, rose petal, and a whisper of forest floor. It’s graceful and inviting, with a lightness which belies its serious pedigree. Farmed organically since 1998, this wine is a lovely introduction to Burgundy’s quieter corners.
