Benjamin Leroux Volnay 1er Cru
$304.99
One of the wonderful aspects of Domaine du Comte Armand is the family’s habit since 1985 of placing their trust in surprisingly youthful talent. Their instincts have been remarkable. Between Pascal Marchand and Paul Zinetti was Benjamin Leroux, who was handed the reins of the domaine in 1999, at the age of 24. Ben stayed at Comte Armand for fifteen vintages and started his side project in 2007. Though there are no family vineyards, he now vinifies approximately 30 hectares, 8 of which are domaine holdings that are farmed organically and biodynamically. His range of appellations is astounding. It spans the Côte from Chassagne-Montrachet to Gevrey-Chambertin and includes all levels in Burgundy’s hierarchy. Particular favourites of ours are his collection of premier crus, not only because many of them are the most prized, but sometimes precisely because of the opposite.
Dal Forno Valpolicella
$223.99
Only Quintarelli can rival Dal Forno, and the two wineries are in a class of their own, not only in the Veneto but all of Italy. The Dal Forno family has been making wine since 1983. Located in Val D’Illasi, the estate consists of 65 acres of vines planted to traditional indigenous varieties of Corvina, Corvinone, Rondinella, Oseleta and Croatina. The estate vineyards and farm are located where the slopes begin to rise toward the mountains and sit 1,000 feet above sea level. The loose, alluvial soils, meticulous pruning and scrupulous viticultural techniques ensure remarkable-quality grapes. The Dal Fornos use traditional methods to grow the finest fruit, and then employ modern techniques to produce the best wines — classic in expression and modern in purity. Dal Forno Romano is well-known for a number of superior wines that range from the region’s famous Valpolicella and Amarone to unique bottlings such as Vigne Seré, a passito dessert-style wine.
Mastrojanni Brunello di Montalcino
$129.99
Since 1975 Mastrojanni has been crafting wines with a recognizable identity: for each vintage, we always choose the most genuine expression of the land. The intuition soon reinforced this mission to parcel two plots and vinify them individually, an early approach for its time. Vigna Schiena d’Asino and Vigna Loreto are still today the two vineyards that best represent Mastrojanni. At Mastrojanni, herbicides have never been used, and since November 2022, no chemical products have been applied. They cultivate the land with respect, preserving biodiversity and maintaining the genetic heritage of their vineyards.

Established in 1978, Voyager Estate recently celebrated 40 years since their original plantings. All of their wines are 100% estate grown and made, reflecting the unique qualities of our place in Stevens Valley with its undulating slopes, warm summers and cooling maritime breezes. They are one of Australia’s most innovative certified organic producers of world-class Chardonnay and Cabernet Sauvignon.“Crafted from our best organically farmed blocks, this is a truly timeless wine, the result of the idyllic 2014 growing season; a perfect harmony of tightly wound, gravelly tannins, acid backbone and generous, complex fruit character. It will benefit from long term cellaring or, for the impatient, decanting.”
