Egarade means a “mysterious evening stroll,” according to the producer. Perhaps the idea is that you lose track of time in this wine. A blend of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, it is rich and full-bodied with a good weight of white and green fruits and a final nervy texture and acidity.

An impressive wine, packed with concentrated white and green fruits. It has good structure, fresh acidity and a touch of toastiness. It’s a dry wine, but full and rich, and likely to age well over the next couple of years. Imported by P. Comms International.

The minerality is a reminder that the grapes come from an area near Chablis. It has a tangy, zingy character, with a nervy edge that promises aging, but it also provides fruity, apple-driven pleasure now.

A rich, toasty 100% Pinot Noir wine from the the Boisset family-owned Domaine de la Vougeraie. There are flavors of spice, walnuts, pierced with red currants and rich acidity.

Bailly Lapierre regards this full-bodied rich Pinot Noir as its signature wine. It has a cool, northern feel to it, but it also has powerful red-berry fruits, a firm structure, a final layer of acidity and a sense this is a wine as well as a Crémant.

This sparkling wine is the only one made in the Chablis region. That’s a shame, because with its great toasty character, crisp yellow fruit flavors and its beautifully delicate mousse, there should be more like it in Chablis. Imported by Louis Latour Inc.

A serious, intensely fruity wine that shows great depth of flavor, some good tannic structure and fine, long-lasting acidity. With its delicate mousse, it could age for two more years in bottle. Multiple U.S. importers.

By far the best wine in the Louis Bouillot range, this is full, crisp and layered with toastiness. It has taken on flavors of honey, spices and vanilla from its wood aging. A fine wine, dry to taste and finishing crisp and full-bodied. Imported by Boisset America.
