Goutte De Lune, “drop, or tear of the moon,” is a hefty Chablis at the top of the fruit chain. Substantial is the understatement, and still the structure stands up and carries the load. There seems to be no overstatement that can be made about such a wine, and one with the addendum of neither Premier, nor Grand Cru distinction. Just a name and simply Chablis, but the Mauperthuis is anything but. Drink 2026-2030. Tasted August 2026.

This is one of Mauperthuis's sharper and fresher Chablis I've had in recent times, fruit of the challenging, low-yielding, but ultimately fine 2024 Chablis vintage, a return to the cooler years of the 1990s and before. It pours a concerningly sustained straw colour, but picks up the freshness on the palate, remaining stony and contained, chalky and limey, with solid complexity and concentration in the end. Good length, too. Enjoy over the nearer term, now-2030 or so. Tasted August 2026.

This is a lovely, bright and quite fulsome Chablis with lifted aromas of yellow apple/pear, lemon blossom and a subtle lactic parmesan note I often find in Chablis. It is medium weight, fresh yet rounded and warming, with a narrow, drying, mineral finish. The length is excellent. Very reflective. Tasted April 2024

Here's a very pretty, floral, white and yellow spring flower-inflected Chablis in the classic idiom, ripe but still cool and northern, with elegance and sophistication on offer. This is textbook, stony and succulent stuff, a feat to achieve in this warm vintage. Length and depth are excellent. A grand success for 2022 I'd say, best now-2028 or so. Tasted April 2024.

Always the Moreau Chablis from the “other side,” of a more luxurious profile while the Chablis without lieu-dit addendum rises with greatest freshness. That one is also crisp with textural glide while Domaine de Biéville is a full mouthful, mature, exotic and teasing late harvest honeyed material. Hard to imagine this could make the other seem austere and sharp by comparison but the ripeness and development in this Biéville is off the charts. Drink now and soon with rich or fatty fish preparations elevated with acidity. You will need the gras and the zest to make it all work. Drink 2024-2026. Tasted April 2024.

From Biéville's sunny site, made in a warmer vintage, this ripe and mouth-filling style of Chablis is not exactly classic. Notably concentrated, mineral, and brimming with stonefruit, yellow apple, and a toasted leesy character. Ample and satisfying but I wanted more finesse and complexity for the price. Tasted April 2024.

About the Winery
Domaine de la Garenne
Rooted in the hills of Verdigny for generations, the Godon-Reverdy family has always worked this land — first in service to the Lords of Verdigny, then the cathedral of Bourges, and finally for themselves. The slopes, trees, and fields have shaped the winery's identity, walked by the parents, grandparents, and great-grandparents before them. It was after World War II that their great-grandfather, Amédée Reverdy, became a winemaker — not by plan, but by providence and a fateful draw of the short straw. Since then, each generation has built on that legacy.
Today, Domaine de la Garenne cultivates 12.5 hectares across 37 carefully managed plots in the Sancerre AOC, a renowned Centre-Loire appellation recognized since 1936 for whites and 1959 for reds and rosés. They grow Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Noir, producing dry white, red, and rosé wines shaped by the region's oceanic climate and diverse soils. Their vineyards span three key soil types: Caillottes (chalky and vibrant), Clay-siliceous (flinty and mineral), and Terres Blanches (rich clay-limestone offering fruit and length). Embracing organic and biodynamic practices, they are committed to working in harmony with nature, letting each terroir express itself fully in the wines. In a region of 366 passionate winegrowers and 2,999 hectares under vine, the estate remains a proud family story — one of heritage, resilience, and a profound love of the land.

This is a generous, tidy and textbook Sancerre hitting all the right notes for sauvignon blanc from this famous upper Loire appellation. The nose is just generous enough to transmit classic grapefruit, nettle, mineral and green pear fruit. It is light to medium bodied, delicate yet fairly taut with a touch of warmth (13% abv). The finish is dry and nicely chalky mineral. The length is excellent. Very cohesive. Price is a bit of a bump but still a value proposition. Tasted May 2025.

Straight from the Sancerre handbook with all three essential soils below and behind a most righteous and ultra correct white wine. Predominantly Caillottes calcaires (72 percent) with Terres Blanches argilo-calcaires (20) and Silex (8) for tripartite sauvignon blanc based on treble, like sounds and instruments that emphasize the high-frequency range of Sancerre audio-ness, played to our palates in brightness, clarity and detail. The terroirs are like violins, flutes, and cymbals, the range of flavours a sibilance in vocals. Top shelf soil, sound and vision from the Alliance. Drink 2025-2031. Tasted May 2025.

This is a lovely, well-balanced and even-keeled Sancerre with evident ripeness and depth but also a ballast of acids and no shortage of freshness, including a point of bitterness that really draws things together and extends the finish admirably. There's also plenty of stones to keep the terroir purists happy, indeed leading the way over subtle limey fruit with a lick of clover honey, the light, fresh, green kind. A delicious wine in the final analysis, best from 2026. Tasted May 2025.

About the Winery
Cordero San Giorgio
Cordero San Giorgio is a new beginning in Oltrépo-Pavese for three siblings who grew up surrounded by their family’s vines at the legendary Vietti Estate in Castiglione Falletto in Barolo. The siblings Francesco, Lorenzo, and Caterina Cordero, are grandchildren of Luciana Vietti & Alfredo Currado, one of the pioneers of the first Barolo crus and considered the “father of Arneis.” Their father is Mario Cordero, Alfredo and Luciana’s son-in-law, who was the company’s co-owner from the beginning of the ‘80s until 2016 when it was sold.
Cordero San Giorgio is located in Santa Giuletta, a village sitting on the first hilly belt of the territory, an area made up of valleys that fan out over the Po Valley with steep slopes and thick ridges. The composition of the soil makes their site particularly suitable for the production of Pinot Nero, making it possible to obtain wines with maximum varietal expression and a strong territorial identity.
The Oltrepò Pavese is a hilly triangle of land in Lombardy, embraced by Piedmont, Liguria, and Emilia-Romagna. A territory dedicated to the cultivation of vines and the culture of wine for centuries: a land of both cultural and gastronomic encounter and exchange. Cordero San Giorgio is in the town of Santa Giuletta, and focuses on working with Pinot Nero, Pinot Grigio and Chardonnay.
