Oregon

Championship Bottle ‘Gravity’s Pull’ Chardonnay, Dion Vineyard, Laurelwood District  2019 750ML ($39.95) $33 special, 12 bottles in stock now
Winery note
“2019 was a stellar year for white wine in the Willamette Valley and Gravity’s Pull is yet another star of our lineup—exactly how we want our wines from this grape to taste. Showing exceptional cut and drive, and combining aromas of bright, yet exotic, fruit with plenty of stony, savory flavors and a palate of minerality etched with citrus zest and patina-ed with orchard fruit, we think Gravity’s Pull is a prime example of why serious drinkers should be looking for Chardonnay from this part of Oregon.”

Looking for a Burgundy that walks the line between elegance and extraction? Look no further than the wines of Pierre Bourée. Just like their cult neighbor Domaine Dujac, the reds are vinified entirely with whole clusters in foudre and raised in oak for two years.

Drappier

Drappier might sound like a Grande Marque, but they’re really a grower producer at heart.  They own 53 hectares of vines in the Aube (where they were the first to plant Pinot Noir) and make forward thinking wines at a very friendly price-point.  A carbon-neutral house, they place as much care in the cellar as they do in the vineyards—and the wines show it.

Forbes placed the estate’s Carte d’Or, as the #3 “Best Champagne You’ve Never Heard Of” for good reason.
