The harvest was very early in France this year, adding to the usual challenges of planning harvest dates, getting pickers organized, and dealing with the late-season curveballs that nature tends to throw. Winemaking is both art and science, and in all such occupations, dealing with uncertainty is part of the job. But our French friends confront more uncertainty than ever this year, as the US government has upended the commercial world order. In the last six months they have seen actual or threatened US tariff rates of 200%, 35%, 10%, 50% and 15%. And as our Supreme Court takes up the question of whether these tariffs are legal at all, the vignerons face yet another extended time of uncertainty. We see them worry for their art and their livelihood, and we forgive them if they feel a bit put upon. In fact it is heartening to see how hard they still work to coax the best from their terroir and to make the myriad decisions of the harvest and vinification with energy and skill. In turn, we will continue to sample their wines, pick the most successful and bring them to your cellars and tables. As always we are excited about the wines we have to offer. There are red and white Burgundies from the Côte d’Or, whose wines have been celebrated for a thousand years. We head south into the Maconnais, less known but home to some of the best winemaking in France these days. From there we descend the Rhône, pausing first in the north for all-Syrah reds from Côte Rôtie, and then in the south for Mistral-kissed Grenache. There are two stops along the Loire, in Chinon for Chenin Blanc, and in Gorges for Cru Muscadet. And we bracket the trip with Left Bank Bordeaux and with Champagne. As always, our goal is to propose wines for every taste and budget, and we hope you’ll find something of interest. If you do, please be sure to submit your orders, in case or half-case lots, by the Order Deadline of Sunday, September 28, 2025. We will place orders for the wine immediately thereafter.

Domaine Boursot
Chambolle-Musigny, Burgundy
Just north of the famous Grand Cru vineyard Clos Vougeot a narrow valley channels groundwater into a bubbling spring at the base of the slope. This “boiling meadow,” or champ bouillant in French, gave Chambolle its name. As you know if you read last Sunday’s email with our opening futures offer, while the family may not have been there when the ancients named it Champ-bouillant, the Boursots have been making wine there for the past 475 years. . As we said Sunday, the Boursots’ Bourgogne Chardonnay 23 and Bourgogne Pinot Noir 23 are terrific values at less than $25 per bottle. The Bourgogne Côte d’Or blanc offers a lovely interplay of ripe fruit, subtle oak, minerals and a touch of lemon peel. The oak treatment is extremely light and well integrated, and the wine is mostly a fruit-and-stone play. The nose shows clean lemon fruit with a hint of floral perfume and dry grape skin. The mouth is pretty, fresh, middleweight and lively. It calls for a patio and a warm summer evening rather than a magnificent Sunday feast. Useful, carefree, and a screaming bargain at under $25. Its red counterpart sees 25% old oak barrels (none new) and shows the faintest touch of earthy wood below the lovely fruit. That subtle Boursot rusticity that draws so many of our customers to this producer is here, but all wrapped up in a friendly, easygoing package. Both Bourgognes provide an opportunity to enjoy real Burgundy frequently. At the village level, we found the Boursots’ Savigny Les Beaune 2023 very attractive. It has a nose of ripe dark fruit and a pleasant mouthfeel of medium body that makes the wine eminently drinkable after just a few months in the bottle. Elevage included 15% in amphora along with a mix of old and new oak — that may account for the ready drinkability. With 13% alcohol the balance is just right. Chambolle-Musigny is often overshadowed by its more famous neighbor Vosne-Romanée, but the elegance and charm of the wines from the appellation are of a piece with the wines of Vosne. We thought that Romaric and Romuald did a terrific job with their 2023 Chambolles, with alcohol levels in the range of 13% to 13.5% and excellent levels of extraction. The Boursot name isn’t as well known as that of Roumier, but we think this vintage will be at home in a cellar with the biggest names. Boursot’s 2023 Chambolle Musigny came in at 13.1% and saw 25% new oak. It is a bigger wine than usual for village Chambolle, with a lot of density on the palate and enough structure to age well. There is an expressive nose of ripe fruit with floral notes alongside. We’d suggest perhaps a year in the cellar followed by many years of sampling as it evolves. At the premier cru level, we have two wines to suggest. First, the Chambolle-Musigny premier cru “Les Chatelots.” This vineyard is in a slight creux or dip in the slope, which the brothers told us makes it rounder and more powerful than its immediate neighbors. We could see the extra body, but we also found it fine and elegant. Elevage was half in new oak, and the resulting wine shows a beautiful silky texture.The fruit is ripe and sweet, and the wine shows the promise of a long and successful life. “Les Fuées” is often called the best of Chambolle’s premier crus (aside from the would-be Grand Cru Amoureuses), and it shares a boundary with the Grand Cru Bonnes Mares. Boursots’ 2023 Fuées comes from vines more than 75 years old, and it reminds us of a Grand Cru. It is a big wine with lots of density and lots of material. There is excellent length on the palate and enough well-enrobed tannins to support a very long life. Put this at the back of the cellar for a while and it will enhance many many special occasions in the coming decades. The Boursots also have a small parcel in the Grand Cru Clos Vougeot. It is located in the Marei Haut sector, in the part near the Chateau that is generally regarded as of better quality than the sectors closer to the Route Nationale. We found the 23 vintage to be a wine of much power, mouthfilling and dense. It’s unmistakably a grand cru, and one of the best bottlings from Clos Vougeot we’ve had. The Boursots think it needs 8 to 10 years in the cellar to be fully ready. A wine worth considering for those with plenty of patience.

Domaine Ravaut
Ladoix, Burgundy
Even a seasoned Burgundy aficionado might have trouble placing Ladoix on a map. Perched at the base of the hill of Corton, the tiny town lies at the junction between the Côte de Nuits and Côte de Beaune. And it’s here that the Ravaut family has made wine for generations, traditional cuvées of both colors that today offer unusually good pricing. Ladoix is one of the corners of Burgundy where climate change has brought some benefits along with the challenges. Grapes once on the margins of ripeness are now easier to ripen, and fifth generation winemaker Vincent Ravaut and his sons have taken this opportunity and run with it. They’re certified EU organic, have dialed back oak, have stopped filtering, and, crucially, have abandoned “pigeage” (punching down) to extract their reds. Once necessary to pull color and flavor from grapes, their crop now arrives at harvest with enough concentration to ferment more gently. Ravaut’s wines are truly exciting these days, and in 2023 they hit it out of the park again. We have two ideas in white, and four in red. The first is a simple Aligoté, the traditional “other” Burgundian grape that represents about 10% of white plantings in the region. Ravaut’s is raised half in old barrels and half in tank, and it’s delicious this year. The scorching hot vintage has added a bit of flesh to the refreshing aligoté energy, and the resulting wine is unusually good. Look for soft fruit and a white flower nose, with brisk freshness and notes of lemon pulp and straw in the mouth. It’s a lovely everyday white Burgundy at a very attractive price. Ravaut’s hometown Ladoix blanc is excellent this year, and benefits from the inclusion of the “Hautes Maurottes” parcel that’s sometimes bottled separately. The nose does a great impression of a Corton-Charlemagne, with tropical notes of coconut, mango, and gardenia. The mouth is broad, long and gorgeous with an elegant sucrocité and subtle minerality. This would perform well next to a Meursault or St-Aubin, but because it’s from nowheresville it barely cracks $40/bot. White Burgundy lovers take note. In reds, Ravaut’s style has evolved beautifully in recent vintages, and the wines are now effortlessly drinkable right out of the gate. Their Bourgogne Côte d’Or is gorgeous this year, a useful entry-level wine that provides excellent value. The nose is dark and sappy with notes of plum and wild cherries. The mouth is inky and smooth, and the tannins are perfectly integrated. This will require no patience, and you won’t be able to keep your hands off it anyway. The Côte de Nuits Villages comes from just over the border into the Côte de Nuits, but the shift in terroir is evident. The fruits are blacker and more serious, and there’s more concentration and length. In recent years we’ve found the Bourgogne better balanced, but this year both are perfectly calibrated. This wine sees a bit more barrel aging, and faint toasty notes join the dark cassis fruit, with whispers of black pepper and gingerbread. This well overperforms its billing and should last a year or two longer than the Bourgogne. Ravaut’s village level Ladoix “Bois Roussot” has always been one of our favorite cuvées here and 2023 is right in line with expectations. This wine shows the chiseled stony character for which the appellation is known. The nose is deep and woodsy with strawberry and loads of spice; the mouth texture is terrific, a combination of sweet red fruit and stones. It’s more like the Côte de Nuits-Villages in profile, and again offers excellent value under $50/bot. Finally, their Aloxe-Corton is magnificent this year. It’s more refined and tightly packed, with intensity that belies its old-vine source. The pure red fruits are stony and elegant, with a serious, sturdy core that’s impeccably balanced – a very serious wine, particularly for its price point. Unlike Ravaut’s others, this will not be drinkable young, and should be given 3-5 years in the cellar. But it will reward patience many times over – unmistakable proof that a $100 price tag is not a requirement for cellaring potential. 2023 is a birth year vintage in the Ansonia family, and we’re squirreling away at least a case of this one.

Domaine Guillemot-Michel
Viré-Clessé, Maconnais, Burgundy
We are delighted to identify for you the domaine that produces the wine we have offered under the private label “Forces Telluriques.” It is the Domaine Guillemot-Michel from the hamlet of Quintaine in the Viré-Clessé appellation of the Maconnais — since the 1980’s the project of Pierette and Marc Guillemot-Michel, who have been joined in the last decade by their daughter Sophie and their son-in-law Gautier Roussille. Now you who follow the wine critics can read for yourselves the fulsome praise for this Domaine over many decades, from Anthony Hanson MW’s comments in his seminal 1995 book “Burgundy” (“these wines are beautiful – they took my breath away”), to Jasper Morris MW in “Inside Burgundy” (“deliciously floral…amazing how such a luxurious style of chardonnay can retain elegance”), to the Wine Advocate’s William Kelley (“These are honeyed, concentrated wines that are imbued with remarkable concentration and energy, and they develop beautifully in the cellar….One of the best producers in the Maconnais.”). Their principal wine “Quintaine” does indeed cellar well. Just a few years ago we opened our last bottle of the 1996 vintage, first purchased during our sabbatical year in Burgundy (1998-99), and found the wine still alive, elegant and delicious. We are therefore doubly excited to offer the Quintaine 2023, which has a similar potential for a very long life. As Gautier Roussille put it, 2023 was the rare vintage that delivers both quantity and quality. Despite a stormy summer, the grapes reached optimal maturity while maintaining an excellent level of acidity — a perfect equilibrium that makes for a wine with ripe fruit, minerals and structure at the same time. When we tasted it in March, it was already beautiful, with richness, length, and complexity. There’s no need to wait to drink this wine, but if you happen to forget about it it won’t forget about you. The Domaine’s latest generation has been experimenting with separate cuvées, and they are also excellent. We have two to suggest in this offering. First, there is Retour a la Terre 2023. The grapes for this cuvée come from a parcel situated on clay soils, and the elevage is 100% in Amphoras — clay vessels — hence the name “Return to the Earth.” Amphoras deliver micro-oxygenation at about the same rate as Burgundy-size barrels, but without oak flavors, and so this wine is a little more generous at this stage than the Quintaine 2023, which is raised entirely in vats and will develop more slowly. It’s a difference of degree rather than nature, and getting a little of each will help to understand the subtle impact of different elevage. Second, we highly recommend the sparkling wine “Une Bulle” (“a bubble”) 2022. First created to celebrate the marriage of Sophie and Gautier a decade ago, it is made by the “Methode Ancestrale,” which differs from the “Methode Champenoise” in that no sugar is added to create the fermentation that produces the bubbles. Instead, ripe grapes are harvested and fermentation is begun in vats. Before all the sugar is consumed, the wines are bottled and the fermentation continues there, producing the gas that provides the mousse in the finished wine. As with Champagne, after 15-24 months on the lees, the wine is disgorged and corked. But unlike Champagne, there is no addition of exogenous sugar. The result is a delicious sparkling wine with plenty of complexity, tiny bubbles and a delightful mouthfeel. For the 2022, the wine was permitted to mature to the “Extra Brut” level (0-6 grams of residual sugar), giving it freshness and tension that matches well with food. No one we know makes crémant with this level of creamy elegance.

Domaine Bonnefond
Côte Rôtie, Northern Rhône
Each year we visit, Léa Bonnefond has taken on more responsibility in her father and uncle’s domaine. She conducts our tastings mostly on her own now, with father Christophe dropping in here and there to offer comments and hellos. In the last decade the domaine had already begun to shift away from extraction and barrel notes, and Léa’s arrival has only continued this trend. She’s a big fan of stems – (“don’t tell my dad,” she whispered) – and uses them liberally and to tremendous effect. The results speak for themselves – we can confidently say this lineup of 2023s is the most exciting vintage we’ve seen here. The future at Domaine Bonnefond is looking bright, and the present ain’t too shabby. Léa’s regional-level Syrah sees less elevage, and so is always a vintage ahead of the others. The 2024 IGP Syrah “Sensation du Nord,” is fresh, beautiful, and a remarkable value. Syrah of the Northern Rhône represents the grape at its most subtle, and even at this humble appellation there’s an elegance and detail that’s not possible from the grape grown elsewhere. The nose is dark and floral, with delicate flowers, fruit and a bit of spice. The tannins are light and crackling – think a beaujolais but with a bluer hue. This is a warm weather red, at home at a picnic table or tailgate. Serve with charcuterie. Bonnefond’s three Côte Rôties are outstanding in 2023 – Léa told us she finds them a lot like 2022, but with more material and more freshness. The first, “Colline de Couzou,” is unusually dense and delicious – tasted blind we would have guessed it was “Rochins,” one of the single vineyard cuvées. The nose shows douglas fir spice and blackberries; the mouth is long and sleek. Vinous’s reviewer found “fresh violets, red and black cherries, pencil shavings, cedar,” writing “this finishes with great energy.” The two parcellaire cuvées, Les Rochins and Côte Rozier, simply shine this year. Rochins is always the more serious of the two – Vinous’s reviewer writes “as dark as a moonless night” – and offers excellent aging potential. The nose is dark and floral with black cherry and cocoa; the mouth is long and very dense with perfect balance and beautifully coated tannins. This will improve dramatically over the next 5 years and however much you have then, you’ll wish you had more. Côte Rozier will also benefit from bottle aging, but was already soaring and magnificent from barrel this spring. The nose is beautiful, a blend of violets, olive, and raspberry; the mouth is seamless and long; the ¾ whole cluster fermentation gives the texture an exquisite clarity and definition. Vinous’s reviewer writes; “framed by bright acidity and delightful purity of fruit, the 2023 is shaping up to be a distinctively elegant Côte Rozier.” In short, this is as impressive as Côte Rôtie gets, and has a long and happy future ahead. We recommend Léa’s wines unreservedly. Pound for pound these drink with the elegance, complexity and detail of premier cru red Burgundies – and in that frame of reference they’re a steal.

Clos du Joncuas
Gigondas, Southern Rhône
Dany and Carol Chastan make delicious wines in Gigondas, a near neighbor and vinous cousin of Chateauneuf du Pape. Their winemaking has always been organic, with biodynamic elements, and their effort is always to faithfully render the wine that the vintage has produced. Beard Award winning author Jon Bonné singled them out for praise in his recent book “The New French Wine,” naming them a benchmark producer of the region and “essential defenders of grenache’s good name.” Indeed, Grenache is the dominant grape in all of their wines, and the delicious wild strawberry aromas are a virtue common to all of them. Particularly in recent years these are big wines, at their best when warming a winter evening along with hearty fare and a fire in the fireplace. It’s best to think of these as Châteauneuf-du-Pape under a different name – indeed the complexity and density of these wines outlcasses many a Châteauneuf with ease. We sampled a broad range of vintages when we visited in March, and three of them stood out. First, Clos du Joncuas Gigondas 2023. It’s the youngest of today’s three suggestions, as usual mostly Grenache (80%). The characteristic wild strawberries dominate the aromatic profile, and the palate is round and well balanced, with a bit of salinity joining the delightful ripe fruit. There is very good length in the mouth. “It’s like eating and drinking at the same time,” Dany told us – and she’s exactly right.” It’s a strikingly good value at a Futures price under $30. Clos du Joncuas Gigondas 2022. Here the strawberry fruit is underpinned by an earthy depth. Aromas of clove have emerged to join the strawberry, along with forest floor. This is similar stylistically to the 2023, but with slightly darker fruit and more distinct notes of spice and garrigue. It’s an extraordinary amount of wine packed into a single bottle. Clos du Joncuas Gigondas 2020. This wine is the closest of the three to its peak, with all the elements having melted together. There’s plenty of stuffing, but a sort of sucrocité (sweetness) keeps the tannins in balance. This wine has youth and age performing in harmony – fresh, lush fruit with a dried fruit-leather density and gorgeous earthy length. We can’t think of many Châteauneuf this wouldn’t beat in a head to head match. It’s definitely a crowd pleaser, and this wine should satisfy all winter long. The first line in one of our trusty tasters’ notes on this wine from March reads simply – ”Jeeze.” – which sums it up well.

Nicolas Paget
Touraine Azay-le-Rideau
Nicolas Paget continues to produce excellent, dry, delicious Chenin Blanc from his organically farmed vineyard in the central Loire Valley. We visited this spring, and were reminded of just how lush this region is, deserving of its moniker “Le Jardin de France.” Paget’s wines are similarly lush – round and rich with excellent acidity and beautiful depth. Our favorite this year was Nicolas’s Chinon Blanc “Passeur du Terroir” from 2022. The warm vintage provided ample ripeness, and this wine is round, luxurious and opulent. Paget raised it in large 500L barrels, and there’s a faint note of spice alongside the yellow pear fruit. A pleasant savory grape-skin minerality joins the lush fruit to give mouthwatering texture almost reminiscent of Chablis. Fans of rich white Burgundy – think Meursault or Pouilly-Fuissé – will enjoy the depth and friendly texture here. Pair this with autumn foods – a lobster bisque, a bouillabaisse, a plate of raclette.

Domaine Martin-Luneau
Muscadet, Loire Valley
Hailing from the western end of the Loire, just before it flows into the Atlantic, Muscadet is France’s go-to wine for oysters. Walk up to a seafood counter in St. Malo or Cancale to slurp a dozen, and you’ll likely be invited to wash them down with a pitcher of Muscadet. Simple, saline and refreshing, it’s a delicious pairing of like with like, and when you finish it can be hard not to queue up for another six oysters or so. The wine comes from a grape called Melon de Bourgogne, and while “melon” (honeydew, not cantaloupe) is a pretty good match for the wine’s aroma, Bourgogne has more to do with the geography of its origin than with its character. Within the last decade, France’s wine authorities have formalized the recognition that parts of the appellation produce better wine than others, and so have designated a few terroirs “Cru Muscadet.” We heartily agree, and so we import Cru Muscadet to share the discovery with our clients. Our source for Muscadet is the Domaine Martin-Luneau, which has parcels in two Crus: Clisson and Gorges. Our stocks dwindle quickly now that Ansonia père farms oysters in his front yard, and we invite you to join us in restocking. This year we’re picking up more Gorges, which in the 2022 vintage features extra gras (volume in the mouth), with hints of mint and gunflint in the nose. Another virtue of cru Muscadet is that it ages surprisingly well. At the domaine we have tasted decade-old bottles that continued to show character and freshness, and so we often look for an older bottle to open for dinner. Nor do you need to confine yourself to shellfish. The wine is a great match for a stir fried seafood, cutting through the fry beautifully. Or try it with grilled shrimp or fin fish — it’s a versatile companion for seafood of all sorts.

Fleuron de Liot
Saint-Estèphe, Bordeaux
St. Estephe is home to storied left bank chateaux that were highly ranked in the Classification of 1855, so it’s unusual to be tasting wine from the appellation whose producer came into existence just thirty years ago. Henri Negrier worked as a winemaker among the vineyards of the Haut Médoc for decades until he got a rare opportunity to buy his own vines. We’ve been buying for a decade now, and consider them a hidden gem with remarkably good pricing. During our visit last spring Negrier told us that in his 30 years of winemaking, 2022 is his best vintage. We agreed and bought far more than usual. As it turns out, our customers all agreed as well, and our large stock quickly dwindled to zero. We’re going to restock on this excellent vintage, and we invite you to do the same. The Fleuron de Liot 2022 is delicious and will age very well. Today this well-balanced wine is inky and dark, showing black cherry and cassis fruit. There is excellent density: the fine tannins coat the mouth and persist on the palate. It will continue to knit together and provide excellent drinking for many more years to come. Don’t let the bargain pricing fool you; this is serious, impressive left-bank Bordeaux.

Domaine Bardoux
Montagne de Reims, Champagne
Pascal Bardoux, our philosopher vigneron, has stopped producing wine and has handed the reins over to his son. But we’re glad to have continued access to the remaining stock of his approachable, idiosyncratic Champagnes. More than perhaps any other of our Champagne sources, this is wine first, sparkling second. First up, old faithful – no Champagne has been more popular (or more useful) over the years than Bardoux’s Brut Traditionnel NV. This non-vintage cuvée is a blend of 60% Pinot Meunier, 30% Chardonnay and 10% Pinot Noir. It has the complexity and depth to match the finest bottles from Burgundy or Bordeaux. The nose shows plum, chalk, lime zest, and buttered biscuits; the mouth is dry, elegant, and smooth, with notes of apple and toast. Serve this with anything or nothing. Still somehow sub-$50, still terrific. Pascal also holds some of his Traditionnel cuvée back on the lees, and it’s from this he releases his “Reserve” cuvée – it’s technically non-vintage, but this year’s comes mostly from the 2014 vintage, so he calls it “Reserve 2014.” Champagne undergoes two fermentations – a first in tanks (like any other wine), and then a second in bottle under bottlecap. During the second fermentation, the yeast in the bottle consumes the remaining sugar, releasing CO2 and producing the sparkle. After the second fermentation is complete, the winemaker may choose to disgorge (remove yeast and insert a cork) promptly, or hold for longer “on the lees.” These extra years on the lees add depth and a doughy, brioche quality to the wine, making it resemble a vintage Champagne. We think this wine is an excellent value, and if your taste runs toward yeasty bubbles, it’s a cuvée for you. Pascal’s Rosé Champagne is two thirds Pinot Meunier and Pinot Noir, and one third Chardonnay. The two dark grapes give gorgeous dry fruit (and color), and the Chardonnay adds freshness and length. This cuvée sits on the lees for three years before disgorgement; with only 150 cases made each year. The nose is intense and fresh, with strawberries, crème brûlée, and apple pie. The mouth is crisp and dry but full of springy fruit; wild cherries and roses. Drink this on its own, and not too far below room temperature. Let it develop in the glass. If a pairing is required, try Brillat Savarin or gougères.
