Drop

Same grape. Three completely different rooms in the same house.

That’s what this drop is really about. Pinot Noir gets called „elegant“ and „subtle“ so often that people forget how many faces it actually has. So I decided to prove it — with three producers who couldn’t be more different if they tried.

Guys, this one is electric.

Three white wines with pressure, salt, smoke and serious nerve.

First: Doussot Bourdot — a Champagne I discovered at Printemps and honestly could not stop thinking about. Powerful, oxidative, salty. One of the most exciting young-grower Champagnes I have tasted in a long time! Still somehow under the radar.

I know exactly why you are here.

And no — I’m not here to cure the obsession. I’m here to feed it.

For Drop 27, we stay in Burgundy and go straight into the thing that keeps pulling us back: tiny volumes, precise vineyard work, impossible parcels and wines that are never just bottles, but little fragments of place, timing and obsession.

For Drop 26, we are heading to the hills of the Langhe — but not to one of the famous names or polished estates everyone already knows. This drop is about Alessandro Salvano, a winemaker who deliberately chooses his own path and lets the wine speak louder than the label.
