Burgundy Wine

Producer Description

Jean Marc Brocard is one of Chablis’ most respected producers, farming biodynamically to honor the region’s singular limestone terroir. The Sainte Claire is his entry point into Chablis — and a benchmark for the appellation. Hand-harvested 100% Chardonnay, naturally fermented with minimal intervention, it delivers everything classic Chablis promises: precision, purity, and a sense of place.

Tasting Notes

Pale gold with green reflections. The nose opens with lemon, yellow stone fruit, and fresh citrus. On the palate, it is wrapped, balanced, and tangy — with layers of Kimmeridgian minerality, crisp acidity, and a clean saline finish.

Biodynamic Viticulture

Grapes are grown without synthetic inputs, harvested by hand, and vinified with natural fermentation and minimal winemaking intervention. The result is a wine that speaks directly of its terroir — nothing added, nothing taken away.

Pairing Suggestions

• Seafood: Oysters, clams, grilled sole, or a classic plateau de fruits de mer.
• Light dishes: Goat cheese, leek tart, or a simple roast chicken with lemon.
• Aperitif: Serve well chilled on its own — the saline finish makes it irresistible.

Producer Notes

Produced by Domaine Delaye, Les Pierres Grises is a 100% Chardonnay from the Saint-Véran appellation in the Mâconnais, Burgundy. The name refers to the grey limestone rocks that define the terrain — and this wine keeps that terroir directly in focus. Beautiful bright citrus framed by a backbone of clean acidity and minerality, with a finish that is clean, bright, and refreshing. One of the great values in white Burgundy.

Food Pairings

• Grilled white fish or oysters
• Shrimp scampi or chicken Cordon Bleu
• Goat cheese, Brie, or pasta with lemon-butter sauce
• Spring pea risotto or roasted turkey

Winemaker's Notes — Vintage 2024

A fresh wine driven by citrus and white fruit. Fresh and supple, with a very slightly oaky finish, marked by the typical mineral notes of Chablis. The “Royal Fields” sit atop a layer of Kimmeridgian soils rich in minerals and oyster fossils — famed for the freshness they impart to these classic wines. Made from a selection of vineyards with ideal exposures on both banks of the Serein river, gentle winemaking and malolactic fermentation make for a linear, fresh white.

Food Pairings

Serve well-chilled (44–48°F). Pairs beautifully with grilled seafood, oysters, chicken in cream sauce, and soft cheeses.

• Grape: 100% Chardonnay
• Vineyard: 37 hectares across the Chablis region on Kimmeridgian subsoil

Critical Acclaim — Vintage 2023

Decanter 90 Points | Appealing Granny Smith apple and nectarine fruit aroma with a hint of white blossom. Surprisingly fresh texture for the vintage, and an elegantly lovely finish — astonishing quality given the volume of production.

Wine Spectator 90 Points | Peach, almond, toasty oak and earth notes highlight this plush white. Backed by lively acidity that drives the spicy, bitter citrus finish. Fine balance and length.

Winemaker Notes

Aromas of white flowers, peach, grilled almond, and lemon peel on a mineral-tinged background. The attack is full and warm on the palate, with a lively and long-lasting finish.

The Les Sétilles Secret

Les Sétilles is widely considered one of the best-kept secrets in Burgundy. While technically labeled as a Bourgogne Blanc — Burgundy’s entry-level appellation — the fruit is sourced primarily from vineyards in Puligny-Montrachet and Meursault, two of the Côte de Beaune’s most celebrated white wine villages. The result is a wine with the DNA of much more expensive village-level Burgundy at a fraction of the price: a genuine insider’s choice for those who know.

About Olivier Leflaive

Olivier Leflaive is one of Burgundy’s most respected négociant-éleveurs, founded in 1984 in Puligny-Montrachet by a member of the legendary Leflaive family — one of the most storied names in white Burgundy. The maison specializes in white wines from the Côte de Beaune and is known for sustainable farming and minimal-intervention winemaking. Les Sétilles — named for the small stones found in the vineyards — is the flagship entry-level wine and one of the most consistently praised value Burgundies on the market.

Food Pairings

Lobster with drawn butter, seared scallops, grilled fish, roast chicken with tarragon, veal, Brie, aged Comté, and light pasta with cream sauce. A benchmark value white Burgundy built for the table.

Winemaker Description 

Maison Louis Latour, in keeping with its tradition of excellent quality, purchases grapes from competent growers with holdings in the most esteemed vineyards in the Mâcon-Villages zone. The wine is bottled during the following spring at 'Clos Chameroy' in the outskirts of Beaune. The Mâcon-Villages "Chameroy" represents the epitome of classical white Burgundy reflecting the fusion between the noble Chardonnay grape and the calciferous terrain of the Mâcon area. It possesses a fresh, creamy bouquet which enlivens the palate with suave, billowing flavor.

A lovely refreshing wine with citrus aromas such as grapefruit. It is well-balanced and an enjoyable, easy wine to drink. Makes a perfect match to shellfish and seafood, charcuterie and Comté cheese.

Memo Summary Notes

The Louis Latour Mâcon-Villages "Chameroy" 2024 is a classic expression of Southern Burgundy Chardonnay. While Louis Latour is famous for their grand estates in Beaune, the "Chameroy" (named after their historic winery and bottling facility in Beaune) is their benchmark value wine, known for providing a consistent, "gourmet" Burgundy experience without the premium price tag.

Winemaker's Notes

"Our Mâcon-Villages "Chameroy" 2024 displays a bright, pale yellow color. Its expressive nose reveals delicate aromas of citrus and garden herbs. On the palate, a generous and rounded texture unfolds with notes of fresh almond and a subtle muscat touch, carried by a beautiful tension on the finish."

Pair with

• Pairing: Excellent with a traditional Charcuterie board or Matured Comté cheese.

• Seafood: Perfect for white fish in lemon-butter sauce or grilled shrimp.

Winemaker Description 

The Vitallis Pouilly Fuisse has great concentration on the nose, reflecting the old vines. Intense aromas of dried fruits, Acacia, nuts and honey. Very long in the mouth with elegant, but ripe flavors, minerality and spiciness. 

Expert Reviews — Vintage 2023

Vinous 92 Points | Generous and well-defined bouquet with Clementine and peach skin, a hint of candy floss and spice. Quite mercurial in the glass. Taut and fresh palate with a fine bead of acidity. Sapid with plenty of extract and umami on the finish. "This should be on your shopping list."

Allen Meadows / Burghound 90 Points | Expressive and quite fresh with just-sliced citrus, green apple and convincing typicity. Excellent vibrancy to the sleek, well-defined flavors with good length on the youthfully austere and highly refreshing finish. A few years of keeping recommended.

About the Wine

Julien Brocard is a pioneer of organic and biodynamic viticulture in Chablis. La Boissonneuse was his very first experimental biodynamic plot, certified since the early 2000s — making this wine a poster child for what these farming methods can achieve in the region.

The 2023 vintage reflects the purity and energy that organic/biodynamic farming aims for: mineral-driven, vibrant, and unmistakably Chablis.

Tasting & Pairings

Clementine, peach skin, citrus, green apple, candy floss, and umami. Taut, fresh, and sleek with fine acidity and mineral extract. Serve well chilled.

• Fresh oysters or scallops — the mineral-on-mineral match is classic Chablis territory.
• Roasted chicken with herbs — the wine’s fleshy mid-palate handles white meat perfectly.
• Goat cheese (chèvre) — the tang complements the wine’s citrus profile.

The estate of Isabelle and Denis Pommier was founded in 1990 when the young couple took over two hectares of family land in Chablis to produce their own wines. From the beginning, a strong respect for the land and the unique terroirs of the region guided their approach — using sustainable farming techniques (lutte raisonnée) before transitioning fully to certified organic viticulture. The red ladybug on their bright yellow labels signifies this commitment to natural farming. Today the domaine is one of Chablis’ most respected small family estates, producing wines of genuine mineral character and cool-climate precision.

Tasting Notes

The 2023 Chablis is round, attractive, rich, and fleshy — a wonderful expression of cool-climate Chardonnay. Classic Chablis character: crisp green apple, lemon, white flowers, and the signature flinty, oyster-shell minerality of Kimmeridgian limestone soils.

Food Pairings

Oysters, clams, grilled fish, sushi, seafood risotto, goat cheese, and light poultry. The benchmark pairing for classic Chablis.

• Appellation: Chablis AOC, Burgundy, France

Expert Review - Vintage 2023

The Tasting Panel 92 Points | This detailed yet generous vintage of the flagship Chablis from Laroche sings with white peach, ripe pear, and nectarine, though the quintessential mineral spine that the best Chardonnays of the appellation exhibit is also present throughout. Fine-lees aging has lent a lovely tactile character.

The Wine Spectator 88 Points | A ripe, fruity style, yet this shows textbook Chablis flint, lemon and apple flavors. This round, harmonious and juicy version lingers nicely on the finish. Drink now. 35,415 cases made, 7,083 cases imported.

Memo Summary Notes

Because of its high acidity and saline notes, this wine is a "gold standard" for seafood pairings:

• Shellfish: Fresh oysters, mussels, or langoustines.

• Salads: Crab salad with citrus dressing. 

• Cheese: Young goat cheese or creamy Brie.

Winemaker Notes

Chablis Saint Martin has the intense freshness typical of the terroir in combination with ripe white fruit and white blossom aromas. The minerality gives a lingering finish and a distinct character. A nice complexity emerges from this vintage, while keeping a lot of purity.

Founded in 1850, Domaine Laroche is one of the largest owners of Premier and Grand Cru vineyards in Chablis and has led movements to raise the quality of the appellation with the creation of a charter of excellence for the Grand Cru producers. The Domaine Laroche vineyards are undergoing active conversion to organic viticulture.

Saint Martin, the patron saint of Chablis, was a Roman cavalry officer who became a humble monk and was elected Bishop of Tours. Saint Martin’s relics were kept for a decade in the Obédiencerie of the ninth-century monastery in the town of Chablis. The Saint Martin cuvée is the flagship wine of Domaine Laroche, a symbol of the Laroche values of sharing and conviviality.

New York Times — Eric Asimov, April 2026 — Vintage 2023

One of the best sources for good values in Burgundy in Savigny-lès-Beaune, where a cluster of energetic producers has amped up the general quality over the last decade or so. This superb bottle is assembled from three different parcels. It’s juicy and immediately pleasurable, with plenty of fruit and a subtle touch of oak. But it will also benefit from a few years of aging. 

About Domaine Camus-Bruchon

Guillaume Camus is one of the most sure-handed red winemakers in the Côte de Beaune. Located in the village of Savigny-lès-Beaune, just north of Beaune proper, the Camus family crafts beautifully balanced, deep, and complex wines that embody what great Burgundy is all about. The domaine holds a lovely spread of top vineyards — both superb Premier Crus and villages-level parcels planted with very old Pinot Noir vines — as well as Premier Cru in Beaune and Pommard.

The “Cuvée Reine Joly” is named after Guillaume’s grandmother, assembled from three villages-level parcels. Camus-Bruchon’s reds drink well from a fairly early age but also blossom beautifully with bottle age, aging gracefully for 25–30 years.

Viticulture & Vinification

Farming: Lutte raisonnée. All work done by hand, including harvest.
Vinification: Destemming followed by cold maceration and fermentation for 15–20 days.
Aging: Sur lies in 3–4 year-old French oak barrels for 10–15 months.

Food Pairings

Roast duck, lamb chops, mushroom risotto, aged Comté, and classic Burgundian dishes. Equally rewarding with 3–5 years of cellaring.

A beauty — showing elegance, structure, and refinement reflective of this producer’s style. The limestone-heavy soils allow the wine to express true terroir and the energetic character of the 2021 vintage.”
  — Debra Desepoli, 67 Wine
• “What a lovely wine. Elegant, with grippy pear skin and greengage, underpinned by a delicate whisper of warm, spiced oak. Friendly, open, and ready to enjoy now, though I wouldn’t hesitate to cellar it for a couple of years.”
  — Rand Sieger, 67 Wine

Winemaker Description 

Daniel Dampt thoughtfully assembles this Chablis from a variety of vineyards, capturing a vivid snapshot of the entire appellation.

Older sites add structure and complexity while younger ones lend freshness and minerality. They combine in a pale-green wine with fresh lemon aromas and lively intensity on the palate.

The color is pale green with fresh lemon aromas. This is a lively, intense, and bright wine.

Expert Review - Vintage 2022

James Suckling 92 Points | Very snappy and crisp on first sip, this gains depth and complexity in toasted almonds and butter as it opens. Alive with crisp apples, lemon zest and a mineral tang that gives a very lively texture and great balance. Medium-bodied. Blended from 60 sites in the region, it was partially barrel fermented.

Winemaker Description 

Olivier Leflaive Bourgogne Blanc Les Sétilles (family garden) has become one of the most popular items in the entire Frederick Wildman portfolio. Year in/ year out this wine represents impeccable quality and unsurpassed value in the French wine category. This wine exceeds expectations of even the most discriminating of palates.

Les Sétilles is sourced from vineyards within the communes of Puligny Montrachet and Meursault, with each village representing roughly half of the final blend. Grapes are sourced from multiple plots within each village in an effort to maximize complexity of the final wine.

Vintage consistency is the goal with this wine so the blending of lots and aging technique will vary according. Roughly 60% of the wine is aged in Allier oak, only 10% of which is new. The remaining 40% of the wine is aged in stainless steel to preserve clean varietal character.

Domaine Bitouzet-Prieur is one of Volnay's most respected estates, and their Bourgogne Passetoutgrains Grange le Duc is a brilliant expression of what this often-overlooked appellation can achieve in the right hands.

The fruit is vivid but not glossy — on the palate, juicy red berries give way to hints of forest floor and dried herbs, with a refined, earthy edge that echoes the structure and elegance of its Volnay neighbor.

Expert Reviews - Vintage 2020

Jasper Morris 92-94 Points | Mid lemon. A little more stuffing than the very agreeable Chenevottes, digging deep into fresh yellow fruit, some citrus rind, good acidity, and a particularly appealing intense crisp white fruit finish. Old vines count! 

Neal Martin writes:  The 2020 Chassagne-Montrachet Les Champs Gain 1er Cru has a touch more mineralité on the nose compared to the Les Chenevottes, touches of gypsum and oyster shell intermingling with light white linen scents. The palate is very well balanced and beautifully poised, with entrancing white peach and nectarine notes toward the irresistible finish. Yes, yes, yes!  Drinking 2025 to 2048.  - Vinous 93-95

William Kelley writes: Aromas of citrus zest, peach and pear, mingled with hints of white flowers, hazelnuts and fresh bread, preface the 2020 Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Champs Gain, a medium to full-bodied, satiny and nicely concentrated wine with a bright spine of acidity and a mouthwateringly chalky finish. This looks to be Colin's best Champs Gain since 2017.  - Robert Parker Wine Advocate 91-93

Winemaker Description 

Founded in 1970 by Marc Colin and his wife Michele, Domaine Marc Colin now spans 15 hectares encompassing 26 appellations in St. Aubin, Chassagne, Puligny, and Santenay. Most of the land was inherited from past generations of Colin and Ponavoy; certain parcels have been in the family for more than 100 years. While the family does own prime territory in Chassagne, home base in St. Aubin features parcels of the very best vineyards, En Remilly and Chatenière, to name a few. These vineyards accrue prestige due to their sloped location; while much of St. Aubin resides on flat ground (rendering less interesting wines) the Colin properties are all situated on finely pitched hillsides. The resulting wines shimmer with savory minerality and luster.

Today Joseph, Caroline, and Damien, the children of Marc and Michele, own and run the domaine. The fourth sibling Pierre-Yves (who made the wine at Marc Colin for 10 years) established his own project in 2005. Sustainable and organic agriculture, older vines, and clay-limestone soils are just some of the components contributing to the quality of the final product. Winemaking style would best be called traditional, though Joseph (who makes the whites) and Damien (who makes the reds) are certainly not shy of innovation. Whites strive for optimum freshness; there is no heavy, ungainly wood here. The red wines are characterized by silky texture, ever-present fruit and a certain roundness with just a kiss of oak. Production consists of 70% white and 30% red with total production maxing out at 120,000 bottles.

67Wine Staff Reviews

Rand Sieger, 67Wine Buyer
A serious but approachable regional Burgundy with layers of clearly defined red stone fruits and loamy Burgundian earth. The fruit is unencumbered by oak and the wine finishes long and crisp. Quite delicious.

Bart Hopkins, 67Wine Buyer
It comes as no surprise that this highly sophisticated and delicious vin de plaisir transcends its simple Bourgogne pédigrée. Made from vines averaging more than 50 years in age located in and around the village of Volnay, flavors and aromas of cherries and raspberries are bright and lively, with supple tannins and mouthwatering freshness.

Winemaker Description 

The Domaine Jomain Bourgogne Côte d’Or Chardonnay 2023 is an exceptional find for Burgundy enthusiasts, often described as a "baby Puligny-Montrachet."

The 2023 vintage is currently hitting the market as a "rockstar" bottle, lauded for balancing the ripeness of a warm season with the precise, flinty minerality that defines this estate.
