Three Courses of Premier Cru
Who doesn’t love drinking the rare juice all night? Three bottles from three separate Premier Cru appellations in France to last all evening.
1st Course – Champagne: The Rosé de Saignee from Larmandier Bernier is made with the most labor intensive methods known to sparkling wine making humans. Only the absolute finest juice is used to make this impossibly small production bottling. Not only is it delicious but the bottle itself is a head turner!
2nd Course – Chablis: 1er Cru Chablis is objectively the most intoxicating thing on the planet (well, maybe subjectively, but still). Limestone soils in the 1er Cru vineyard of Les Vaillons give way to a bright, lifted wine, and the wine is aged in old French oak barrels to give it just the faintest hint of roundness. Gorgeous stuff.
3rd Course – Red Burgundy: We are fully zoomed in now. We started with a village of 1er Cru with the bubbles, went to a 1er Cru vineyard for the Chablis, and now we are in a small patch of vines within a vineyard. The Clos Pitois is a walled area with a small 1er Cru vineyard of Pinot Noir in the heart opf Burgundy. Roger owns every vine in this parcel, hence the term “Monopole” on the label – a truly rare thing to see anymore. This is rich, elegant, balanced, and juicy Pinot Noir that might make you forget all about Sonoma.
