Chassagne-Montrachet, Domaine Benoît Girardin 2022
"A full nose of russet apples and yellow plum, lifted by notes of cinnamon-dusted galia melon, brioche, and heather honey. The attack is rounded, intense but not aggressive, with grapefruit, and nutty freshness, and a mid-palate oiliness and fleshy orchard fruit sweetness to counter the brisk acidity. This is nicely controlled, sophisticated and long, playful with a saline bite and autolytic bitterness on the finish that ensures equilibrium." Tom Harrow, Head Wine Guru A fresh face for the Honest Grapes roster, and already causing a stir in France: Benoît Girardin may have launched his domaine only in 2020, but with prime holdings inherited from thirteen generations of family growers, he’s hit the ground running. The winemaking is classic Burgundian, yet the wines are anything but ordinary; the tasting was electric, all silk, poise and quiet sophistication. These are bottles to buy early in the estate’s story, while the prices are friendly and the allocations still generous.
Puligny-Montrachet 'Les Charmes', Domaine Alain Chavy 2022
Sourced from the Les Charmes lieu-dit, this wine reflects Domaine Alain Chavy’s signature style—pure, mineral-driven, and beautifully balanced. The palate is vibrant and fresh, with a linear, chiseled structure supported by bright acidity and an elegant flinty minerality, a hallmark of Puligny’s terroir. A brilliant match with seafood dishes, and poultry with creamy sauces.
