Staff Pick Notes

First of all, congratulations on your decision to buy champagne. Champagne is arguably the most brand driven category in the wine and spirits world, meaning that people's buying habits are sometimes limited to brand name recognition, rather than love of the product. What made you choose to buy Veuve Clicquot today? It is because you appreciate the flavor and texture, compared to other Champagnes of similar quality and better pricing, such as Pol Roger and Guy Charlemagne?

These winemakers control every aspect of grape cultivation and vinification, from the vine to the finished bottle, which is...

Chardonnay

From Champagne to Chablis, it's hard (not to mention unpleasant) to avoid this famous white variety. During a huge popularity surge beginning in the late 1980s, Chardonnay plantings have increased dramatically -- not only in California's wine country, with which the variety is nearly synonymous, but also in Burgundy (its original, Old World home) and just about everywhere else in the winemaking world. It is a flexible, eager-to-please grape, responding well to just about anything a winemaker...
