There is one Champagne, two sparkling wines from Burgundy, 5 whites, and 1 rosé. There are nine individual wines, and between one and two bottles of each wine.
- Champagne André Legrand Brut NV. Made and owned by celebrated Champagne artisans Charles Mignon and family in Épernay. A blend of Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier, and Chardonnay. Delicate hints of yeast lees, lemon tart, toasted biscuits, cocoa powder, tea, smoke, roasted cashews, and other complexing notes, while the palate is dry with great verve, invigorating and long. Usually $74.95 per bottle. One bottle in this mixed dozen.
- Berthenet “Blanc de Blancs” sparkling wine from Burgundy, Brut NV. A blend of Chardonnay and Aligoté. Made by the traditional bottle-ferment “Champagne method” this just nails the celebratory taste of French sparkling wine: the peachy stone fruit, toasty biscuit, nuts, delicate floral perfume, and a palate that is dry, crisply textured, and long. Usually $45.95 per bottle. One bottle in this mixed dozen.
- Domaine Jean-Pierre Sève white Burgundy 2022. 100% Chardonnay. Gregarious Chardonnay fruit, intensely fresh and lively, with lemon tart, peach and rock melon, apple pie, meringue, orange blossom, and more, but the greatness is on the palate that is dry but the acidity and the generous body work together to give that feeling of extreme drinkability. Usually $38.95 per bottle. One bottle in this mixed dozen.
- Moingeon “Crémant de Bourgogne” Brut Vintage 2020, sparkling white wine from Burgundy. 40% Chardonnay, 30% Pinot Noir, 30% Aligoté. Made using the traditional “Champagne method”. The Chardonnay here takes centre stage with peach and honeydew melon fruit, lemon sorbet, toasty meringue and brioche notes, while the palate is very lively, incisively crisp and dry, and perfectly thirst-quenching. Usually $36.95 per bottle. Two bottles in this mixed dozen.
- Vignerons of Pfaffenheim “Tradition” Riesling 2019, white wine from Alsace.
100% Riesling. Lifted perfume, lemon and lime, spiced apple tart, something exotic like lychee in the mix with a caramel note, rose petals, candied peel, while the palate is dry, balanced, with good length and a clean zing-y finish. Benchmark Alsace Riesling. Screw cap. Usually $34.95 per bottle. Two bottles in this mixed dozen. - Vignerons of the Ardèche “Amandier” Chardonnay 2021. 100% Chardonnay.
Exquisite finesse, refined but typical Chardonnay fruit, rock melon and white peach, perfectly stitched into the lightest and most subtle barrel fermentation character, while the palate is elegantly medium-bodied, balanced, dry, and dangerously drinkable. Usually $32.95 per bottle. One bottle in this mixed dozen. - Baudry & Dutour “Marie-Justine” rosé 2022 from the Chinon district of the Loire Valley. NEW vintage. 100% Cabernet Franc. Talcum powder, cinnamon, red currants, cranberry, cassis, blackberry leaf and more subtle nuances on the nose, then a beautifully tangy palate, dry but soft, food-friendly and highly drinkable. Benchmark Chinon rosé. Usually $31.95 per bottle. One bottle in this mixed dozen.
- La Cave de Cairanne “La Grande Réserve” white wine 2021 from Cairanne in the southern Rhône. 50% Grenache Blanc and the balance is made up of Clairette and Bourbolenc. Luscious rock melon and peach fruit, jasmine and elderflowers, while the palate is medium-bodied and gently textured with balance and freshness, dry, and a long clean finish in the mouth. Usually $30.95 per bottle. One bottle in this mixed dozen.
- Baudry and Dutour “La Chapinière” Sauvignon Blanc from the Loire Valley 2022. 100% Sauvignon Blanc. Explosively aromatic right now though this will settle down over the months to come but in the prime of its youth there is a blaze of signature Sauvignon aromatics, black currant leaf, lemon and lime, tropicality, gooseberry, and notes of a freshly mown lawn. The palate is dry, crisp, with vibrant zing and length. Usually $29.95 per bottle. Two bottles in this mixed dozen.
How to order.
This works out at $460.40 of wine for today’s special price of $345.24 , which represents a discount of 25%. Please note that today’s special price only applies to these wines when they are ordered as this suggested mixed dozen.
Because this is a mixed dozen, it has to be added to your cart in multiples of 12. So to order one of these mixed dozens, put 12 bottles in your cart, or to order two of these mixed dozens, put 24 bottles in your cart, etc. This mixed dozen has been priced at $28.77 per bottle because $28.77 x 12 = $345.24, which is the correct price to pay for it.
Please also note that if the stock counter towards the top of this page is showing “792 in stock”, for example, that means that there are 66 mixed dozens available because 792 divided by 12=66. Or if it showed there were “12 in stock” that doesn’t mean that there are 12 of these suggested mixed dozens available but actually just one of them because 12 divided by 12=1, etc. In other words, the stock count figure shows the total number of bottles not the number of dozens available.
