Classically, Chablis is a crisp clean white Burgundy, made from vines grown in extremely chalky, limestone soil. With a cooler growing season than in the Côte-d’Or, unique soil composition and a plethora of exceptional sites, Chablis is an essential item for anyone’s cellar. Sure, the wines are more angular than the Cote d’Or, but for sheer terroir-infused bang for your buck, they’re impossible to beat.
 
With a tremendous amount of variance in terms of flavor expression, the best Chablis are characterized by their high acids, pervasive minerality and a fruit profile that tends to skew towards citrus and orchard fruit. As they age, the mineral and tertiary characters of the wines blossom, with the best examples having decades of potential bottle age.

But there is only one region in the world of Sauvignon Blanc that is whispered of reverently and can only rarely be found on shelves: Pouilly-Fumé. Made cult by Didier Dagueneau’s benchmark Silex bottling, you can be forgiven for expecting most top-rates PFs to set you back somewhere in the three figures a bottle range.
 
Would you even believe me if I said you could find an illustrious producer, one who is of the only 1% of producers in the region to work organically and biodynamically (the first in the region), one who wows the reviewers, and, most importantly, one whose top two bottlings have yet to surpass $70 at our shop?
