Delamotte Brut Blanc de Blancs Champagne
$ 74.99
This is 100% Chardonnay from the Côte des Blancs, rich, with a surprisingly delicate quality, round yet mineral. It features a rose-like nose with citrus and ginger, and in the mouth hints of biscuit and breadcrust. Fantastic with rich, creamy seafood dishes especially.
91 points Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar: (made from fruit grown in the grand crus Mesnil-sur-Oger, Oger, Cramant and Avize): "Light, green-tinged gold. High-pitched lemon, lime, talc and quinine aromas show very good clarity. Very dry, but there's impressive heft and body to its juicy orchard fruit and bitter citrus zest flavors. The dry finish displays very good energy and mineral-driven persistence."
Henriot 2006 "Cuvee Hémera" Brut Champagne
$ 174.99
This is the top cuvée from Henriot, and is sourced from just six grand cru villages. It is composed of 50% Chardonnay from Avize, Chouilly, and Mesnil and 50% Pinot Noir, only from the northern grand crus of Mailly, Verzenay, and Verzy. This small-production Champagne is released very late, and justifies its price with the long ageing that has been lavished on it. If you are looking for something decadently rich, yet still bright and light on the finish, look no further. Limited.
96 Points: "The Cuvée Hemera is Henriot’s new name for their Tête de Cuvée bottling, which had previously been known as Cuvée Enchanteleurs. This is the first vintage of the house’s top of the line bottling that has been crafted from beginning to end by Cellar Master Laurent Fresnet. The wine is a fifty-fifty blend of chardonnay and pinot noir, as is the case with their Brut Millésime, but here, only grand cru vineyards are used for the cuvée. The 2005 Cuvée Hemera was aged twelve years sur latte prior to disgorgement and a finishing dosage of five grams per liter. The bouquet is deep, pure and stunning, offering up a very refined blend of pear, apple, a touch of hazelnut, gentle smokiness, a very complex base of soil tones, fresh-baked bread and just a whisper of caraway seed in the upper register. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied, focused and rock solid at the core, with impeccable focus and grip, very refined mousse and outstanding length and grip on the poised, balanced and exquisite finish. This is simply outstanding!"
95 Points Wine Enthusiast: "Only produced in the top years, this wine, named apparently after the Greek goddess of daylight, has just achieved maturity. It is rich in notes of almonds and toast that meld together with the ripe white fruits. It's a great wine that is impressive and ready to drink, although it will also easily age further. *Top 100 Cellar Selections of 2018*
Laurent Perrier Brut Rose Champagne
$ 99.99
The best selling rosé Champagne in the world, Laurent-Perrier is one of the few rosés still made by the saignée method. To emphasize this traditional technique, the Champagne is bottled in an embossed bottle that is a reproduction of those used in the late 17th century.
The salmon-pink Lauent-Perrier Brut Rosé Champagne is truly remarkable for its highly expressive bouquet, stemming from very careful preservation of fresh fruit aromas during the winemaking. Made with 100% pinot noir using skin contact, also known as the saignée method, Laurent-Perrier's know-how and attention to quality produces a finely crafted rosé with both depth and freshness. It has become the benchmark for rosé Champagne around the world.
91 points Wine Spectator: "The Laurent-Perrier Brut Rosé is a big, beefy rosé. Very Pinot Noir-like, with leaf, cherry and earth notes matched to a firm, muscular structure. Has warmth and personality, with a lingering finish. Begs for herb-roasted chicken."

Pierre Morlet "Grande Reserve" Rosé Champagne Brut, France
$ 69.99
A Brix26 exclusive, Pierre Morlet's Grand Reserve Rosé is a Premier Cru Champagne at a fraction of the price of its peers. Mostly distributed in France, very little has made it to the U.S. until now.
Obtained by the “Saignée” technique, the Morlet Rosé Grande Réserve Champagne is exclusively comprised of Pinot Noir. Its intense yet delicate bouquet is dominantly fruity (raspberry, wild strawberries, blackberries) intermixed with notes of limestone and hazelnut. Full-bodied and elegant, the Pierre Morlet Rosé Grande Réserve displays flavors of fresh raspberries and pomegranate and a long finish with mineral notes and a hint of Kirsch. This Rosé Champagne will age gracefully for a decade.
The Morlet family has been cultivating vineyards in Avenay-Val-d'Or since the early 1800's and, after four generations, Champagne Pierre Morlet et Fils has become synonymous in France for authentic and handcrafted Champagnes. Interestingly, Pierre Morlet's grandson Nicolas was consulting winemaker at Napa Valley's cultish Peter Michael Winery before starting Morlet Family Wines.
Pierre Morlet 2012 "Millesime" Premier Cru Champagne. France
$ 79.99
A Brix26 exclusive, Pierre Morlet's "Grand Reserve" is a Premier Cru Champagne. Rare library release of the 2012 Millesime vintage.
2012 was an excellent year for Champagne, although not without curveballs around harvest! Quality is excellent, and the 2012 Pierre Morlet is no exception! Showing notes like ripe citrus, earthy red berry fruit, with a classic toasty-yeasty mid-palate. A very long finish that hints at exotic spice. Exceptional, rich, satisfying, and fascinating. The 2012 has a sligly higher Chardonnay component than the regular NV Brut Reserve. Varietals: 74% Pinot Noir, 26% Chardonnay

Sean Thackrey "Pleiades XXIX" Old Vine Red Blend
$ 24.99
New release of a California classic from the iconoclastic Sean Thackrey. The Pleiades might be the only super allocated, cult California wine for under $25, and it always sells out quickly.
92 points Wine Enthusiast "Editors' Choice": "How many ways can you say delicious? It’s impossible to exaggerate how appealing this light-hearted wine is. It’s vibrant with candied raspberries, pomegranates, orange zest, vanilla, brown sugar and cinnamon spice flavors, yet finishes dry and clean. The blend includes Sangiovese, Viognier, Pinot Noir, Syrah and Mourvèdre."
If you try to find the exact varietals in this always-fantastic red blend, you might find yourself gazing up at the heavens for an answer, since you won't get one from the winemaker. From "One of California's most iconic and mystical winemakers," says Robert Parker, "Sean Thackrey has logged in 20 or more vintages of consistently stunning wines that perhaps say it all with the simple quote on his label: -Sean A. Thackrey, Vintner, Bolinas, California.
Sean Thackrey is one of the most influential and interesting people in the Bay Area Food and Wine community. Since 1980, he has been producing wines that are extraordinary: not only for quality and complexity, but also because he utilizes unique wine-making techniques, often drawing from historic, sometimes ancient, winemaking practices from all over the world. Sean sources grapes from many locations throughout California, and makes all his wines by hand (touching every grape) at his small Bolinas winery. Self-taught, and fully reliant on his intuition and senses, Sean is the antithesis of corporate wine-making. Indicative blend: Syrah, Sangiovese, Mourvedre, Barbera, Carignane, Petite Sirah, Viognier, among others. Each release is labeled with Roman numerals
