If you’re into white burgundy (or any Chardonnay for that matter), you’re gonna want some of this.
On a recent buying trip back in February we sat down with Olivier Ramé to taste the latest lineup at Maison Ventenac. During that meeting one of the wines we tasted stopped us in our tracks. It was a 100% Petite Arvine called Le Batard. It was also one of the best wines we tasted the entire trip.
Ventenac is an exceptional 100% organic property. Some of the wine produced here we believe represents some of the best under $50 wine you can buy - period.
Using the grape Petite Arvine is a new project, with the wine called a ‘bastard’ on the label because Petite Arvine is a Swiss grape that few grow in France. The wine is a complete dead ringer for high end white burgundy (and I’m talking the stuff north of $100 per bottle). It is tense and minerally, fermented with native yeasts and no sulfur in Italian terracotta amphorae. It adds color, texture and complexity to this otherwise simple and refreshing grape.
My first thought after tasting it was thinking this must be what people feel like when they say stuff like “I remember when Montrachet was only $30…” and stuff like that.
The only real problem here? 2,400 bottles or 200 cases is the entire annual production.
So of course we bought 112 of them.
And after it's only been here a few weeks - there are only 35 cases left for all 8 stores. Just 420 bottles.
These will sell out today, so get while the gettin' is good!
