More Burgs, more Bubbles!

First of all, do not miss our special tasting this Saturday from 12-5 in Carlton – with Thiébault Huber from Huber-Verdereau in Volnay and Patrick & Catherine Essa from Domaine Buisson-Charles in Meursault on hand pouring their killer wines – some of the most exciting reds, whites & sparklers in our entire portfolio. Be sure to get a taste of the Meursault Bouches-Chères 1er Cru from B-C and the Volnay Fremiets 1er Cru from H-V, wines that are rarely if ever open for tasting. (And I’ll likely have something “under the table” for those who mention this blog…)

Looking ahead to this fall, I’m excited to announce the addition of three amazing grower-Champagne producers to the Scott Paul family – Bruno Gobillard, José Dhondt & Camille Savès. All three are names already well known to Champagne lovers, and it is with great pride that we bring these awesome wines into our portfolio. The first shipments will be arriving in October – details and producer profiles are on the way in the weeks to come. And of course we continue to be the importer for the outstanding Marc Chauvet Champagnes – save some room in your cellar for the ridiculously good 2002 Special Club that will be here this fall. After all, man cannot live on Burgundy alone – we need our bubbles!!!

Joining up with the three new Champagne producers comes on the heels of the additions of Burgundy superstars Frédéric Mugnier, Michel Lafarge, Bonneau de Martray, Comte Armand and Jean-Marc Pavelot - and we’ll have all of their new releases arriving this fall as well. I really think we now just may have the best overall top-to-bottom Burgundy selection around. It’s an exciting time at Scott Paul, and we look forward to to introducing you to all of these amazing wines in the coming months…
