Dominique Lafon, Meursault 'Les Narvaux', Burgundy, France, 2019
"Very Burgundian" is the fashionable claim made by most California Chardonnays these days but finding one that actually earns the praise is often difficult. Sandhi is one of the very few. Founded by former sommelier Raj Par and made by Sashi Moorman, they make Pinot and Chard in the cool Santa Rita Hills that are surprising for their elegance, freshness and delicacy. Not surprisingly, the Sandhi team was instrumental in also founding an informal association of California winemakers who come together under the title "In Pursuit of Balance". The name says it all and indeed, this is a quality that in California wines has been most conspicuous for its absence

The Beaujolais region in Southern Burgundy produces delicious and affordable wine from the Gamay grape. Their 'brand' was damaged by the Beaujolais Nouveau craze of the 1980-90s. Real Beaujolais is now the great hidden gem of Burgundy
González Bastías 'Tinaja' País, Maule, Chile, 2020
Chile's Pais is one of the original 'Mission' grapes planted by the Spanish in the 1500's in the cool southern regions far from the capitol. It was long written off as a rustic throwback, grown and vinified by local farmers in the simplest way possible for their own consumption. Many of the vineyards are thought to be 200 - 300 years old, thriving almost wild on sandy soil where phylloxera has never come, there is no irrigation, and never any chemicals. Just recently, these majestic vineyards have captured the imagination of winemakers who had the wherewithal to bring the wines out into the wider world. José Luis Gómez Bastías is the fifth generation to farm this land. With his wife Daniela Lorenzo, an oenologist-agronomist, they are dedicated to making fully natural wines by hand as their forefathers did.
