2023 Adam, AJ - Dhron Hofberg Kabinett (750ml)

Another rare alpine variety from Savoie specialist Philippe Grisard. This Verdesse offers ripe yellow stone fruit aromas and flavors with hints of lemon zest and fresh thyme. It's medium-weight with a certain creaminess on the palate, but its vibrant acidity keeps it fresh and light on its feet. Verdesse was a rather more popular variety in the past, but there are barely more than 25 acres in total planted today. I'm glad to have been able to stash a few bottles away for myself, because it's no longer being imported. If anyone wants to cross another obscure variety off your list, here's a delicious chance! - John Fitter | Addy Bassin's

Our white Sancerre Moulin des Vrillères is a blend of our different parcels of Sauvignon. Beautiful pale clear yellow colour. Delicate aroma of white flowers, also developing a citrus tone. On the palate, a fresh, strong, airy style wich is seduced by purity and intensity of its aromas. A true Sancerre

Rosacker might rightly be considered the pinnacle of the Alsatian Grand Crus, being home to Trimbach's famed Clos Ste. Hune. At $29.99, this really is a crazy deal for a top-notch riesling from some of the most prestigious grapevine real estate in France!  - John Fitter | Addy Bassin's
