Domaine Sylvain Cathiard stands as a testament to the dedication and passion of the Cathiard family. This small domaine, established by Sylvain Cathiard's grandfather in the 1930s, carries with it a rich history rooted in the legendary Domaine de la Romanee Conti and Domaine Lamarche. Sylvain's father, Andre, lovingly nurtured the domaine from 1969 until 1985, when the reins were passed on to Sylvain himself. In the following years, Sylvain embarked on a journey to develop his own vineyards, renting parcels from his father and other vignerons. Soon after he acquired his father's original vineyards solidifying his commitment to the craft. In 2006, Sylvain's son, Sebastien joined him marking the beginning of a new chapter for the estate. Together, they formed Sylvain Cathiard et Fils, a collaboration that combines tradition with a fresh perspective. Since 2011, Sebastien has taken the helm, carrying on the family legacy while Sylvain enjoys a well-deserved retirement. Spanning across 5 hectares, the vineyards of Domaine Sylvain Cathiard grace the appellations of Vosne-Romanée, Nuits-St-Georges and Chambolle-Musigny. Of significant note is their tiny parcel in Romanée-St-Vivant, situated just below the iconic Romanee Conti. Here, they proudly hold the title of the smallest land-owner of this magnificent Grand cru. Every aspect of vineyard work is executed with meticulous attention to detail by Sebastien, his wife, and a dedicated team. Embracing organic principles, they prioritize the natural harmony of the vines, although certification has not been sought. When it comes to winemaking, Sebastien adopts a hands-off approach, allowing the wines to evolve naturally. Whole-cluster fermentation takes place, with the juice cold settled for approximately 10 days. The wines then undergo a skin contact period of 22 to 30 days. Maturation occurs over 18 months in oak barrels, sourced primarily from tonellerie Remond and Francois Freres. The percentage of new oak used varies across the appellations, with village wines aged in roughly 1/3rd new oak and 2/3rds of 1-year-old oak. Premier Crus see a balance of 50% new oak and 50% 1-year-old oak, while Grand Crus are aged in two new barrels and one one-year-old barrel. Since 2000, the wines have not been fined or filtered, allowing them to express their true character. Sebastien Cathiard's wines exude an unparalleled sense of harmony, with a soft and elegant texture that speaks to their finesse. Since taking over the domaine, Sebastien has listened attentively to those fortunate enough to taste alongside him. As a result, he has gradually reduced the percentage of new oak used for aging, allowing the fruit to shine with natural intensity and balance. The Vosne-Romanées, in particular, have garnered a reputation as some of the finest in the village.Each bottle from Domaine Sylvain Cathiard is a testament to the fully mature vineyards that have yielded fruit of exceptional quality. With a limited production of around 50 barrels in a good vintage, these wines are a true embodiment of passion, tradition and the pursuit of excellence. The Sylvain Cathiard Bourgogne Aligote 2022 is a brilliant addition to the Cathiard range, showcasing the unique character of this grape variety. Crafted from a small amount of Aligote sourced from vines in the Hautes Cotes, with 95% coming from 30-80-year-old vines in the village of Villers-la-Faye above Corgoloin, and the remaining 5% from vines in Nuits St Georges planted in 2011. In the glass, this wine reveals a bright and pure white hue that invites exploration. On the nose, enticing aromas of fresh apple, citrus and greengage captivate the senses, offering a refreshing and invigorating experience. It is a medium-bodied wine with a forward nature, displaying excellent depth and polish. Fermented and matured in stainless steel tanks, this Aligote exemplifies Cathiard's commitment to preserving the wine's brightness and purity. The 100% destemming process, which is a characteristic of all Cathiard red wines, ensures the expression of intensity and purity that is synonymous with the winemaker's style. On the palate, the Sylvain Cathiard Bourgogne Aligote 2022 unfolds with a honeyed texture that is almost incisive, delivering juicy flavors that dance across the taste buds. There is a subtle presence of tannins that adds a touch of structure, lending a pleasing sensation on the tongue. The acidity is well-balanced, providing a refreshing lift without being overly sharp or astringent. The finish is long and satisfying, leaving a lasting impression of deliciousness. This wine embodies an uncomplicated yet nuanced style, capturing the essence of Aligote in its purest form.

Pierrick Laroche, the proud owner of Domaine des Hâtes, continues the legacy of his family's estate located in the picturesque village of Maligny, in the north-west sector of Chablis. Established by his father in the 1970s, Pierrick's family vineyard holdings have gradually expanded over time, resulting in the current size of around 33 hectares. After obtaining a degree in oenology from Beaune, Pierrick embarked on a journey to gain valuable experience by traveling the world and undertaking various internships. Armed with knowledge and a deep passion for winemaking, he returned home to take over the family vineyards and start producing his own wines. Pierrick's cellars, ingeniously built into the side of a hill in the village, allow for much of the winemaking process to be conducted by gravity ensuring gentle handling of the grapes. The vinification takes place traditionally in stainless steel tanks, while some of the Premier and Grand Cru wines undergo a small portion of aging in used barrels, allowing for a full malolactic fermentation. One of his oldest vineyard plots, Les Châtillons, planted in the early 1970s, sits just behind the hill of the Grand Crus and showcases the meticulous use of barrel aging, which adds complexity and depth to the cuvée. In 2016, Pierrick expanded his range by starting a small négoce operation, sourcing must from friends who predominantly farm on the left side of the river. This addition includes premier crus such as Beauroy, Beauregard and Vau de Vey, as well as the grand cru of Bougros. In 2019, Pierrick inherited 8 acres of vines from his father-in-law in the southern sector of Chablis, around the village of Courgis. This inheritance includes Petit Chablis, 5.5 acres of Chablis and just over half an acre of the premier cru Les Butteaux. Pierrick Laroche's dedication to his craft is evident in every bottle of wine he produces. With a perfect blend of tradition and innovation, his wines showcase the unique terroir of Chablis, captivating enthusiasts with their finesse, complexity and distinct character. As Pierrick continues to nurture and expand his vineyards, he upholds the family legacy while leaving his own mark on the world of Chablis winemaking. The name of Pierrick's Domaine, "hâtes" refers to an old agricultural unit of measure, similar to the English rod. It evokes the long and slender fields used for sowing, where the longer rows made plowing easier with fewer turns. The term "hâtes" was often used to describe such fields. Crafted from the vineyards of Domaine des Hâtes, this is a wine that showcases the unique characteristics of the Petit Chablis classification. With nearly 12 hectares of Petit Chablis vineyards, Pierrick Laroche's dedication to quality winemaking is evident in every sip. Petit Chablis is classified as such due to the presence of younger Portlandian limestone, rather than the older Kimmeridgian limestone found in other Chablis classifications. This distinction often results in higher elevation sites, as the Portlandian limestone overlays the Kimmeridgian. Additionally, Petit Chablis vineyards tend to have less clay in the soil composition. Pierrick Laroche holds the belief that one of his largest parcels of Petit Chablis should be classified as Chablis. This particular vineyard produces wines that exhibit the characteristics typically associated with Chablis, and it is surrounded by AOC Chablis vines. The terroir of this parcel contributes to the wine's exceptional quality and distinct expression. The Pierrick Laroche Petit Chablis 2022 offers a captivating tasting experience. On the nose, expect vibrant aromas that reflect the youthful limestone terroir. The palate is greeted with a refreshing acidity that enlivens the senses. Delicate flavors of citrus fruits, crisp apple and a subtle mineral undertone dance on the palate, creating a harmonious and well-balanced profile. The finish is clean and lingering, leaving a sense of purity and elegance.

Nestled in the foothills of the Meehan Ranges, halfway between Hobart and the Coal Valley, lies the picturesque Clarence House Estate vineyard. Planted in 1998, this vineyard boasts an ideal location and soil composition, making it a haven for grape cultivation. Stretching across 16 hectares of land, the vineyard initially began with just 6 hectares of vine plantings. The first vines included chardonnay, pinot noir, sauvignon blanc, tempranillo, merlot and cabernet sauvignon. As time went on, the estate expanded, adding more pinot noir, chardonnay and even pinot blanc to its offerings. The decision to plant pinot blanc was made after consulting with former winemaker Andrew Hood, who recognized the similarities between the local conditions and those found in Oregon, where pinot blanc thrives. The vineyard's fruit was initially sold until the vines reached maturity. In 2006, the Clarence House label was established, allowing the estate to showcase its own wines. The vineyard now produces three labels: Clarence Plains, available exclusively in Tasmania, Clarence House Estate and Clarence House Reserve. The Reserve wines are a selection of the best barrels from each vintage, often undergoing extended oak maturation to enhance their complexity and depth.
