Random note: One of the iconic lines in any TV show has to be when Dame Maggie Smith asked what a weekend was in Downton Abbey. You can view the hilarious scene here.
Anyhoo...I think the rest of us actually do know what a weekend is, and we look forward to them. I love opening up a nice bottle on a Friday night as a bit of a celebration of another week in the books, and a great way to wind down.
This weekend, we've got quite a treat.
I noted above that $19.99 per bottle for this wine is not only the lowest online price in the US...it is the lowest online price in the world. This weekend (every time I type this phrase now in my head I say "What is a weekend?!?!?), you'll be able to pick up this gem for less than you can buy if for locally in France.
GO time.
Soooooo...what is all the hype about?
On a recent buying trip 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 global annual production.
So if you're into White Burgundy (or any Chardonnay for that matter), or just into delicious white wine, your ship has come in.
$19.99 per bottle through Sunday. I'm all in!
