The lush black fruit and sturdy tannins expected of a warmer-climate Cabernet are balanced by brighter fruit, sharp acidity, and a kiss of minerality. Stunning even now, we expect its allure and complexity to skyrocket in the next 7-10 years.

Château Langoa Barton has remained under the ownership of the Barton family since it was classified as a Third Growth in 1855. An impressive nine generations of Bartons have managed this estate through tremendous historical highs and lows. For what it's worth, renowned wine critic, Robert Parker Jr., noted the wines of this estate are "grossly underpriced and significantly over deliver."

We were somewhat surprised to learn that Isabelle and Denis Pommier’s organically farmed 16 hectare estate in Chablis (est. 1990) near the village of Poinchy is one of the very few in the region to hand-harvest a significant portion of their production! Although most known for their distinctly mineral and terroir-driven Chablis, they also make a small amount of Bourgogne Rouge, such as the beautiful and energetic “Grain de Survie,’ which is equal parts fruit, floral, and earth.

Pinot Noir
MEDIUM-LIGHT-BODIED, RASPBERRY, STRAWBERRY, FLORAL, SPICE, OAK
A very light and refreshing style of pinot from winemaker Michael Brajkovich, who was New Zealand’s first Master of Wine (MW). Fresh, light, and dry, with a vibrant edge and nice hint of chalky tannins — the palate is lightweight yet fruity with a lick of oak spice and angular acidity.
