Chazeaux Des Beuchottes
In warmer spots in the southern region of Languedoc-Roussillon, Pinot Noir can prosper but only in the cooler sites. With Chazeaux des Beuchottes, these cooler sites help produce complex, bright and fresh Pinot Noir. At this price, we dare you to find better Pinot Value!

Clarington Chenin Blanc
South Africa is a bewildering wonder; one of the most beautiful places on earth. Their wines are first rate, courtesy of that delectable landscape and the old vines that have been tended there for centuries. Chenin Blanc here is special and Normandie Est 1693 has old vineyards at its disposal. They understood that growing Chenin Blanc on the sides of the Groot Drakenstein Mountains would yield something far more than pleasant white wine.

Clerus Saint Chinian
The Vignerons de Cruzy Montouliers Cebazan have only been around since 2014 but they have modern cellars and contemporary ideas about winemaking, unlike some in the area. Certain spots have stood out for years. St.-Chinian uses a plethora of grapes: Carignan, Cinsault, Grenache, Lledoner Pelut, Mourvèdre and Syrah, though Syrah, Mourvèdre and Grenache account for about 70% of the region’s grapes.

Clos Delfines
Albarino is Spain's most successful white wine and Clos Delfines is a benchmark for the style: crisp, green apple, pear and peach skins.

Combeval Grand Cuvee
This wine’s aromatics are generated by the Sauvignon Blanc, always bursting with character whether under ripe or overripe; here it’s all green pear and melon. But Colombard can add significant texture; Gros Manseng might offer some tropical notes. Put them together and this is one of the true values that classic French wine regions can create.

Copain Voisins Syrah
Any experienced taster will observe that this wine is an excellent example of Syrah from the New World. Why? Because it’s clean and redolent with fresh, well-preserved fruits of red and black cherries, with spices of new barrels. But consider it great? What separates “commercial” wines from those that we find greatness in? There should be depth and complexity in wines that approach greatness and I argue that this wine embodies all that.

Corasado
Bodegas Lo Nuevo has unquestionably modernized their winery; it’s practically a technical marvel now. But what makes these wines special is the place, Jumilla, with its intense weather. It’s tough ground for most grapes, but Monastrell (the French, who borrowed it from Spain, call it Mourvedre) and Cariñena (once again, a borrowed grape dubbed Carignan by the French) can thrive here.

Daou Cabernet
Georges and Daniel Daou didn’t just buy land in Paso Robles, they bought the old Hoffman Mountain Ranch and its famed barn as well. Founded by Dr. Stanley Hoffman in 1964, this was the site of some legendary wines. I can go on about the 1976 and 1977 HMR Cabernet, but then that would be rude. Let’s just say that Daou wines have an excellent and established pedigree. Their Cabernet is solely from estate fruit; powerful and plump.

Darley Knights Valley Red
We argue about vintages and that’s because we don’t all like the same style of wines. You may hate Napa Cabernet in 2011 because you think they're weak and insipid; I might find them elegant and sleek. You might champion Napa Cab 2013s; most people do. I might complain that some are too ripe. But 2020 is one of those vintages that makes fans of us all. Sonoma Cabernet in 2020 has richness but also balance. Check out Darley’s 2020 Knights Valley Cab and make your own mind up.

Dme Grand Montmirail Deux Juliettes
Heady Grenache and elegant Pinot may seem as far from each other as Moscow and Memphis. But Denis Cheron of Montmirail had just moved from Burgundy and created a co-op in the Rhone in the 60s. He handled a lot of estates’ wines but felt something special was happening at Montmirail. When the owner decided to sell, he offered it first to Cheron who he felt had so improved his wines. It’s a remarkable spot, with vineyards at 1200 feet, among the highest in Gigondas.
