Antonio Galloni

"The NV Brut Nature Blanc de Blancs Nature de Craie is a fabulous wine for the year. It offers all the brightness that is typical of the house style, yet it also has more than enough of the mid-palate creaminess and texture that is so elusive in 2021. Fermentation and aging in wood further amplifies the wine's vinous personality." —Antonio Galloni

Champagne

Champagne boasts some of the world’s greatest luxury brands with Krug, Cristal and, of course, Dom Perignon. But it’s also home to hundreds of small dynamic producers—farmers who grow their own grapes (often organically) and make (often with natural methods) tiny amounts of pure and absolutely delicious wine that reflect the individual personalities of their villages and terroirs. Toast with these wines, for sure. But also treat them like the great wines they are: taste, drink, explore!
