Wines In The Collection
Ludovic Engelvin France | Languedoc-Roussillon
This wine is full of fresh Grenache fruit, beautifully perfumed, with a refined and elegant finish.
Thierry Germain France | Loire
This sparkling wine has decadently rich, honeyed fruit and a nice dollop of buttery brioche.
Domaine Lucien Boillot et Fils France | Burgundy
It’s floral, finessed, and delicately detailed, thanks to vines that are more than a century old, planted in 1911.
Domaine Lucien Boillot et Fils France | Burgundy
It has a vivid magenta color, abundant cherry and raspberry fruit, an exotic spice note, and subtle oak. Not too chewy, not too delicate—just right.
Domaine De Villaine France | Burgundy
Les Champs Cloux fresh, with good acidity, but also among the domaine’s more robust reds.
Domaine de Villaine France | Burgundy
From an east-facing premier cru parcel on steep slopes, this rich and noble white wine is long, elegant, and refreshing.
Domaine Giacometti France | Corsica
Reminiscent of ripe wild blackberries crushed on a hot stone, “Le Vin Coule” is utterly gulpable—give it a light chill and revel in this unique Corsican rouge.
Grange Saint-Sauveur France | Loire
Fermented and aged in barrel and bottled unfiltered, it features a delightful kiss of oak on the long, bracing, mouth-watering finish.
Domaine Ostertag France | Alsace
Ostertag’s “Mountain of the Monks” parcel has absolutely everything going for it.
Château Moulin France | Bordeaux
You may find it to be leaner and livelier than the rich, plush Merlots of Pomerol and Saint Emilion
Jean-Paul et Charly Thévenet France | Beaujolais
The high-toned nose suggests an absolutely electric wine, full of delicate florals and tart berries, and the juice hits the palate like a dreamy cloud of Gamay.
Domaine de Durban France | Southern Rhône
Grenache is joined by Syrah and a drop of Mourvèdre to create this delightful everyday red scented with herbes de Provence and ripe black cherry.
Gregoletto Italy | Veneto
This brisk, fizzy, stony nectar has an undeniable gift for bestowing unparalleled palate stimulation and mental reinvigoration.
Portelli Italy | Sicily
Enough vibrance and freshness to drink well on its own, but just enough tannin and acid to be versatile at table.
Punta Crena Italy | Liguria
Lean, bracing, and tangy—just what you want when digging into a plate of fried calamari.
Meyer-Fonné France | Alsace
This is a rich, ample, seductive Pinot with notes of tea leaves, strawberries, and blackberries.
Domaine de la Cadette France | Burgundy
This is young Pinot at its best: aromatic, expressive, and a true pleasure to drink.
Veuve Fourny et Fils France | Champagne
Evoking bright citrus as well as darker citrus—think hints of blood orange—the Vinothèque is among Veuve Fourny’s most elegant Champagnes.
Meyer-Fonné France | Alsace
Serve it to friends as an apéritif and listen for wows, because this wine’s perfume provokes wows.
Piero Benevelli Italy | Piedmont
Bone-dry and tangy, with brambly black fruit and a bold, old-school Italian bite.
Castagnoli Italy | Tuscany
A decidedly bright, aromatic, almost exotic Chianti, with aromas of black olive, violets, iron, and smoked meat.
