A Trove of Bonneau

Direct from the Cellar of the Local Importer/Distributor

“The Chateauneufs here have become legends in their maker’s lifetime, and anyone fortunate enough to try them can attest to the fact that these wines are utterly unique examples of the category, as well as some of the most idiosyncratic wines being made anywhere today. A visit to Bonneau is a step back in time-both in terms of the character of the wines and the bewildering maze of ancient cellars where the wines are raised.

Stag’s Leap Cask 23

Stag’s Leap has been making some of the best wines in Napa since their excellent showing in the Judgment of Paris in 1976.  Their top wine these days is the peerless Cask 23, one of the prestige bottlings of Napa, especially in a top vintage like 2015.  We’ve secured incredible pricing on this wine, which arrives Friday, and are excited to offer it to you today.  At this six-pack pricing, it’s not going to stick around very long, so anyone who loves top-tier Napa Cabernet should act quickly.

First Offer:

2015 Brovia Barolo

It’s remarkable that even as Brovia’s star is rising in the echelons of Barolo, prices have yet to seriously escalate for these wines. They stand with any producer’s collection of Baroli and yet are priced below many ‘name’ producers that are making wines of less character and interest.  For traditionally made Barolo, these are some of the best wines you can buy (at any price, really, but especially for the price).

Heidsieck’s Blanc de Millenaires

Charles Heidsieck might be the most picky great house in Champagne.  Their top wine, the Blanc de Millenaires, has been released only five times in the last forty years.  Even the most selective of the other great names declare 4-5 vintages a decade (and then there’s Dom Perignon, which skipped only ’01 and ’07 so far in the aughts), but Heidsieck will only release this wine under the most perfect of circumstances (the last vintage released was the epic 1995).
