Blanc 'etc.', Domaine Didier Dagueneau 2023
Didier Dagueneau transformed Pouilly-Fumé from sleepy backwater to white wine mecca, and his 'etc.' cuvée captures everything brilliant about his revolutionary approach. This is Sauvignon Blanc stripped of its grassy clichés and rebuilt as pure mineral expression, grown on the Loire's limestone slopes and fermented in old oak to add weight without masking the grape's razor-sharp personality. “ The Dagueneau wines blew the market away when they were first released and they remain a benchmark in Pouilly Fumé ” Rebecca Gibb (Vinous) These rarely get scored by the critics but if you enjoy great white Burgundy or the finest expressions of terroir driven Sauvignon Blanc, we can’t recommend Dagueneau wines enough.
Weingut Clemens Busch, Marienburg Riesling 'Raffes' GL 2023
Clemens and his wife Rita are a humble yet hugely respected duo, having built a cult following over the past 30 years for their incredibly precise, richly textured, and terroir-driven wines. In the world of Riesling, the Mosel is king, and their wines capture its essence like no other. Falkenlay sits on grey slate and is home to Clemens’ most textured, full-bodied wines. It’s also where you’ll find the estate’s crown jewels—Raffes and Felsterrasse. Since 2015, they’ve been part of Respekt, a group of biodynamic winemakers. But Clemens has been ahead of the game for decades—he ditched herbicides back in 1976 and embraced organic viticulture long before it became mainstream. Nowhere else is the connection between vine, winemaker, and terroir so perfectly expressed—and honestly, we’ve yet to find Rieslings quite like these.
