Domaine Roulot Bourgogne Blanc 2023
Domaine Roulot · Domaine Roulot
Jean-Marc Roulot's Bourgogne Blanc consistently drinks above its appellation. The 2023 vintage shows the signature Roulot precision — laser-focused acidity, restrained oak, and a mineral transparency that hints at the Meursault parcels nearby. One of Burgundy's great values at the regional level.
Nose
Bright lemon zest and green apple form the aromatic core, with subtle white flower and a chalky minerality underneath. There is a delicate note of fresh almond and a hint of toasty lees contact.
Palate
Lean and precise, with citrus and green apple driving a taut, mineral-laced mid-palate. A touch of buttery texture from lees aging adds just enough roundness, while the acidity keeps everything tense and focused. The finish is clean and saline.
Finish
Medium-length with lingering citrus, chalk, and a crisp, refreshing mineral fade.

Food Pairing
Sole meunière with brown butter and lemon echoes the wine's citrus and toasty almond notes, while the fish's delicate flesh matches its lean, mineral-driven palate.
Jean-Marc Roulot, who once pursued a career in acting before returning to Meursault to tend his family's domaine, has become one of Burgundy's most celebrated white wine producers, known for crystalline purity and meticulous vineyard work.

Feudi di San Gregorio Fiano di Avellino DOCG 2023
Feudi di San Gregorio
Fiano di Avellino is one of southern Italy's noblest white grapes, and Feudi di San Gregorio has been its most consistent ambassador. The 2023 delivers the grape's signature interplay of fruit richness and mineral tension at a price that makes it an easy recommendation. A serious food wine that punches well above its weight.
Pieropan Soave Classico Calvarino 2022
Pieropan
Calvarino is Pieropan's demonstration that Soave can be a wine of real complexity and ageability. The 2022 vintage captures the vineyard's volcanic character with precision, delivering a wine that overperforms its modest price point by a wide margin. This is the kind of bottle that converts Soave skeptics.
Graci Etna Bianco DOC 2023
Graci
Alberto Ferrara's Graci estate farms pre-phylloxera vines at high altitude on Etna's north slope, producing wines of remarkable tension and purity. The 2023 Etna Bianco from Carricante grapes delivers volcanic terroir in the glass — mineral, saline, and vibrating with energy. This is one of Italy's great white wine values.
Domaine Thibault Liger-Belair Bourgogne Blanc Les Charmes 2023
Domaine Thibault Liger-Belair
Thibault Liger-Belair is better known for his Nuits-Saint-Georges reds, but this Bourgogne Blanc demonstrates the same meticulous farming and minimal intervention approach. It's an honest Chardonnay that lets the limestone soils of Burgundy speak clearly. Outstanding value.
