Deutz' Tete de Cuvee (Dom Perignon/Cristal class luxury cuvee). Among the very best of The Best. Subtle, graceful, addictive!

A cuvee of 100% Pinot Noir from a single vineyard parcel, Meurtet, owned by Deutz in the village of Ay where the House & production facility are located. Hommage à William Deutz 2015 – Meurtet is a single varietal and single parcel wine made from grapes grown exclusively in the Meurtet parcel in Aÿ, owned by Champagne Deutz. An incredibly distinctive and distinguished cuvée. Its fine effervescence and delicate beads of bubbles attest to the exceptional quality of this wine, its terroir and its varietals which have been lovingly nurtured by man. The intensity of its aromas and colors are in perfect unison. This harmonious wine evolves to disclose notes of apricot, cherry and zesty red fruit and attests to Deutz’ perfect mastery of the vinification process. Delicate and fruity on the nose, subtle and elegant on the palate, tempting yet also well-structured and lingering, utterly harmonious This is among our favorite Champagnes we offer & an amazing value at its $129 price point!

This single-vineyard, 100% Pinot Noir Champagne from the noblest of terroirs in Ambonnay hails from some of Egly’s oldest vines (planted in 1947). “Les Crayeres” means chalk, and it’s what this incredible vineyard has in spades. “Crayeres” is pure, solid chalk, which gives this peerless Champagne its definition and fathomless complexity.  Egly says that “Crayeres” is the essence of what Champagne used to be, before Chardonnay was involved. 100% fermented in barrel; not filtered or fined. The nose is tantalizingly complex, with mixed notes of jelled red fruits, Mirabelle plums, pepper and chalk dust.  Incredibly vinous in its precision and peppery power; delicate vanilla and honey round it out. Are you are fan of Krug? Spend your Krug $$ on this amazing wine & get rocked to your foundation!

Just as lovely as we might expect from this hallowed producer! Very reasonably priced by today's new loftier standards! A Blanc de Blancs Standard-Bearer!

As good, if not better than it has ever been. New reduced dosage (7 grams per liter) gives it a bit of tart freshness to counterpoint its generous fruit component. Another Hit from among our very favorite Houses!

100% Chardonnay from a small walled vineyard close to the Lanson winery in Reims, this is a splendid wine. Its richness is balanced by the intense freshness and minerality of the Chardonnay, with apple and citrus flavors that still in the background. Now mature, this wine is ready to drink.

The most perfect $100 bottle we offer. No need to spend a penny more, as this sleek 100% Chardonnay Cuvee does it all!

A stunning example of what makes this Grande Marque producer so special. Bright & fresh, with plenty of energy & depth, as it is with everything they make. The big difference here is the $58 price-point! This is 1st-rate Champagne at the price of the competition's marginal stuff. Every Champagne aficionado should have multiple bottles of this, on hand, at all times! 242nd BLEND : 42% Chardonnay - 36% Pinot noir - 22% Meunier 2017 Harvest: 54% PERPETUAL RESERVE: 34% (2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016) RESERVE WINES AGED IN OAK: 12% (2009, 2011, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016) MALOLACTIC FERMENTATION: 34% DOSAGE: 8g/l

Our next Tete de Cuvee Champagne needs no introduction. It is the newly minted #1 Wine in the "Wine Spectator" Annual Top-100 List for 2022! Louis Roederer Cristal is many folks' idea of "The Ne Plus Ultra of beverages"!! And who are we to argue?! 2014 vintage for the Region is a year to make an investment in, in our humble opinion! The following is The House's euphoric ruminations on this lovely release: THE RADIANCE OF A SUNNY YEAR 2014 was a bright and sunny year in which the fruit and finesse were more radiant than we ever thought possible. This sunny vintage gave us a generous and well-ripened harvest of grapes which allowed us to craft a Cristal that is truer than ever to its identity. The 2014 vintage has given us a more terroir style of wine than ever before, one in which the purity and excellent drainage properties of the chalk enabled us to mitigate the vagaries of the weather over the year. Gentle, increasingly eco-friendly sustainable growing techniques have resulted in a Cristal 2014 that shows us the ultimate balance between maturity and freshness.

This adorable Rosé is made of 90% Chardonnay from the Côtes de Blancs and 10% Pinot Noir vinified as red wine, from Vezernay. The combination of these two varieties gives birth to a rosé fresh and light, dressed subtly with a tinge of deep pink. It is straightforward with delicacy and brightness that play together with the aromas of raspberry and strawberry. Priced extremely correctly at $75.00!

Hedonistically rich. Built to take on any cuisine, including red-meat dishes! Or, superb as a cocktail! You might not even need dinner. Worth every penny of its fairly lofty price point. Why Pol Roger is a perennially favorite producer!

Our sole offering in the "Pet-Nat" category, but a fine example that is deserving of your attention! 100% Solaris, a new varietal which requires no chemical treatments in either the vineyard or cellar. This sparkling wine belongs in the category dubbed “Col Fondo” in Italy as its secondary fermentation takes place mostly in tank before being bottled where it finishes leaving both the CO2 bubbles but also a small deposit of sediment which is actually the yeast cells. The wine can be decanted off the sediment or served complete. Mildly fizzy, you will find floral notes in the nose with apple and stone fruits prevalent along with tropical notes. On the palate, the wine shows fresh acidity with a juicy texture
