Pierre Peters Cuvee de Reserve Grand Cru - $80
Champagne, France
This is a 100% Chardonnay Cuvee with fruit sourced exclusively from Grand Cru villages of Cote des Blancs. It is given extra depth and complexity by the addition of 40% reserve wine to the blend. Their reserve wine is a blend based on a system of blending 20 different vintage years with the oldest barrel from 1988. This wine is a symphony of fruits ranging from citrus fruits and green apple that transitions in to Asian pear all while balanced with the classic aromas of brioche bread, biscuit, and almond. This is a wine with a taught character that is best paired with fish and different birds.

2022 Pierre Gaillard Condrieu Viogner - $50
Northern Rhone Valley, France
By law 100% Viognier. These grapes are harvested by hand then aged in 10% New French oak for 7 to 8 months. The wine is stirred while aging to develop flavor and body. The Rhone is hot so produces wines that show off on the nose and palate with bright tropical fruits, intense floral aromas. All accompanied with a round texture making this a beautiful wine for pairing with richer dishes or stand-alone enjoyment.
