2022 Tavignano - Verdicchio dei Castelli di Jesi Misco (750ml)
2024 Weingut Keller - Scheurebe Trocken (750ml)
The most incredible part about this very rare bottle of wine is that it tastes more like Morstein than it does of Scheurebe.
Yes, this makes some sense. This bottle is sourced, after all, from a tiny, 0.3-hectare parcel of old Scheurebe vines, about 55 years old, in the “La Borne” parcel of the Morstein vineyard.
This is one of the most joyful, transparent, buoyant and garden-fresh wines that Keller makes. While it’s in no way a culty bottle of wine, at least in the “fine wine” world, it is a bottle obsessed upon by any number of German wine dorks, for the very fact that it both absolutely transcends the grape itself, and, is so profoundly the grape.
This is Morstein first perhaps – but after that, there is no doubt it is Scheurebe.
Which begs the question, for some at least: What the hell is Scheurebe?
The grape is a crossing of Silvaner and Riesling, famous for its black currant, grapefruit, and floral aromatics. When Scheurebe is made sloppily, it has all the charm of a cheap perfume, heavy and chemical-feeling.
However, from the right place, tended by the right hands, the wines can just be stunningly fresh, soaring in fact, and wildly mineral, clear, deep and elegant… which is exactly what Keller’s rendition is.

For some strange reason, the 2022 Pinot Gris Rangen de Thann Clos Saint Urbain Grand Cru had the highest acidity of all the wines harvested in 2022 - even a touch more than the Riesling Roche Calcaire. This is one of the mysteries of nature. Only a vestig...

2015 Antoine et Philippe Delaunay - Muscadet Nord-Ouest Chateau-Thebaud (750ml)
According to the vintage, Antoine produces wines under the Château-Thebaud appellation from specific parcels that highlight different expositions and soils. The wines spend up to 60 months “sur lie” in glass lined tanks that are set in the ground. The constant subterranean temperature is ideal for the long storage. Depending on the wine, a certain amount of battonage is done. This method brings a richness to the wine which is supported by a pronounced minerality and salinity

2023 Domaine Philemon - Gaillac Blanc Perle Nature Loin de l'Oeil (750ml)
The Blanc Perlé, which is sometimes labeled as Gaillac Fraîcheur Perlé by other producers, has been produced in Gaillac since the 1950’s. The freshness in the wine is achieved by preserving some of the natural CO2 that occurs during the vinification, although for decades most producers have added CO2. Mathieu does not add CO2 or anything else to his wines as is certified by the agency, Nature et Progrès. The wine has evolved from being a blend of two or three varieties to being produced from a single variety, the indigenous Loin de L’Oeil. The grapes are pressed slowly and gently in a pneumatic press. Because of the low yields this wine fills the palate with a wonderful concentration of flavors while retaining a freshness that is underscored by mineral, petrol and citrus notes. Mathieu adds 15mg/L of SO2 before bottling.

2000 Chateau Cheval Blanc St. Emilion (750ml)
