SAUVIGNON BLANC

the sauvignon blanc grape originated in bordeaux yet now it is widely grown in the loire valley,california, new zealand, and other areas. characteristically, a wine with a lot of citrus influence

and crisp acidity, the wide array of winemaking decisions can elicit vastly different wines. newworld expressions of sauvignon blanc differ from old world in that they typically are un-oaked.

CHARDONNAY - NEW WORLD

chardonnay, originally from burgundy, is an easily influenced grape being able to take on many aspectsof what it's subjected to in terms of winemaking, climate, soil, cooperage and more. The differenceis chardonnay can have vastly different expressions that are truly world class. aside from france,chardonnay has found it's home in the new world, and especially in california. when it comes to oak usage,it is a grape that can stand up to heavy oak influence, where most other white grapes would buckle.

CHARDONNAY - OLD WORLD

due to the limestone soil and cooler climate, chardonnay grown in burgundy are typically higher inacidity, show more earth and are very complex. similar to movies, the producer of the wine is behind thecamera, and the vineyards and their location are the star. chardonnay is able to do things in burgundythat are unmatched by other wines. the grand crus are the most prestigious pieces of land to grow amazingchardonnay, but the premier crus aren't far behind. these are exceptional wines.

RIESLING

riesling is the best wine grape that is misunderstood. Its cellar longevity and its ability to maintainvarietal identity while reflecting the individuality of its ‘terroir’ are reason enough that the high acidriesling may be the best of all the white wine grapes. the finest rieslings have elite aging potential, andsomehow retain an element of lively freshness even after several decades. it can produce wines that varyfrom bone dry to sweet and is grown in numerous countries. germany leads in production, followed byaustralia, austria, usa and others.

PINOT NOIR - OLD WORLD

burgundy is the birthplace of pinot noir, where it thrives on marl dominated soils (clay with high limecontent) and cooler climate. unlike bordeaux, the actual location of the vineyard is equally as important(if not more important) as who is producing the wine. each vineyard has a story to tell and pinot noir isthe voice.

ITALY

italy, the only country where wine is a needed staple just like food. there's always a designated place at anitalian dinner table for wine, and the character of these wines reflects it. this is all that is common withItalian wines as there is a massive number of different regions and styles of wines being produced. Fromthe powerful wines of the northern piedmont to the complex volcanic hillsides of the southern island ofsicily, the wines may be vastly different in style, but they are all incredible in quality.

MERLOT

the name merlot is thought to be a diminutive of 'merle', the french name for the blackbird and probablya reference to the dark color of the grape. the merlot grape is elegant and structured, and continues todevelop in the bottle for decades. it is believed that the first time the grape was used in making wine wasin the late 1700s when a winemaker in the bordeaux region formally labeled the grape as an ingredient inhis bordeaux blend. from merlot’s american beginnings in california, the grape has since taken root in newyork and washington, also sparking popularity in australia.

BORDEAUX

bordeaux is the iconic birthplace of cabernet sauvignon and merlot and acted as a model for napa valleyearly on during its resurgence of quality wine production. the bordelaise commitment to blending, oakusage and top notch winemaking has cemented their reputation as prestigious, delicious wines that ageamazingly well. on the left bank, cabernet sauvignon is king and shows its broad shouldered prowess inthe wines. the deep gravelly soils ensure that the vines have to work hard for nutrients and as a resultproduce concentrated grapes. the left bank is also home to the 1855 classification of the medoc and it's"growths." the wines tend to be powerful, earth driven and contain a velvety almost poetic balance that isvery food friendly.
