Domaine Rostaing
René Rostaing founded his estate in the 1970s, working with family parcels in the Côte Blonde and La Landonne regions of the Northern Rhone appellation of the Côte Rôtie. The estate has since expanded, now including the Côte Bonnette parcel in Condrieu, old vines in Lézardes (just outside Côte Rôtie and bottled under the IGP Collines Rhodaniennes), as well as an estate in the Coteaux du Languedoc, where the estate’s Puech Noble wines originate.
For fans of the Northern Rhone, these are iconic, classic wines like no other. Eschewing 100% new oak and other modern stylings, the estate is not afraid of using modern technology as long as it aids in performing traditional practices, such as using rotary fermenters for the traditional long and gentle macerations.

Tell Everyone About Telmo
“Recovering regions, protecting traditions, head-pruning vines, helping those who are starting out. That’s what I’m talking about. Everything we’re doing is restoring; we’re not trying to invent anything new. In fact, our motto is: The Future Lies in the Past.” – Telmo Rodríguez
Ladeira Do Xil
We love the wines of Telmo Rodriguez. He is one of Spanish wine’s great champions, having fought for regenerative farming and terroir-focused winemaking on both the micro and macro level. But after pushing for agricultural policy change in the “Terroir Manifesto” and bringing his father’s winery, Remelluri, in Rioja to new heights of purity and excellence, what else was one of the wine industry’s top minds to do but start a new winery?

Gerard Boulay makes some of the best aromatic white wines in France from his vineyards in Chavignol. As the heart of Sancerre, this town hosts top names in the region, including Vatan, François Cotat, and Gerard Boulay.
From his parcels in La Grande Côte, Monts Damnés, and Clos Beaujeu, all of Boulay’s wines ring with terroir and the unique minerality. The wines are exceptionally age-worthy, collectible, and profound: a rare combination in Sauvignon Blanc. It’s remarkable that these wines are even available on the open market, considering the Boulay family has been known for exceptional quality since its founding in 1380.
Gerard Boulay takes his own motto, “nature makes the wine,” to heart.

The Astonishing Wines of Marc Colin
The Astonishing Wines of Marc Colin
Founded in 1970 in St. Aubin, Domaine Marc Colin produces mostly white wines sourced from holdings in Chassagne, Puligny, and Santenay, and – of course – St. Aubin. Their wines have earned respect and acclaim for their purity and elegance. Now under the direction of Marc’s children, John, Damien, and Caroline (the eldest, Pierre-Yves, left in 2005 to establish his own estate affectionately abbreviated to PYCM), Domaine Marc Colin has reached the upper echelon of Burgundy.
Most of their production is white, the vast majority being Chardonnay. The estate works over 45 acres of vines, including in the Grand Cru vineyards of Montrachet and Batard-Montrachet.
