Puligny-Montrachet & Chassagne-Montrachet
The heartland of white Burgundy lies undeniably in these two neighbouring communes. With their chalky white soils and intricate patchwork of magical Grand Cru and Premier Cru vineyards, it's no wonder that wine lovers across the world are devoted to the wines from here. The selection is packed with all the extraordinary wines and rare bottles the region is most known for.
Meursault
Meursault wines are especially praised for their full-bodied structure, fine balance between fruit and minerality, and their signature notes of butter, nuts, citrus, stone fruit, and a refined mineral backbone. While the village has no official Grand Cru vineyards, several of its Premier Cru sites are regarded among the very best in all of Burgundy. The selection is full of super rare birds from some of the worlds most prestigious producers like Comtes-Lafon, Arnaud Ente and Coche-Dury. Have a look:

Chablis
Planning to enjoy oysters or shellfish this summer? Then make sure you place your bids on Chablis this Thursday. These pure, finely tuned wines are known for their salty, stony, sea-breezy minerality — a direct reflection of the 150 million years old limestone and fossil-rich seabed soils they grow in. We love Chablis and are thrilled to present you some incredible opportunities to buy bottles from the most legendary domaines like Raveneau and Dauvissat.

Aligoté
In recent years, Aligoté has seen a dramatic rise in popularity. Many consider these wines to offer outstanding value for money, as they are often more affordable than the average Bourgogne Blanc. However, Aligoté is quickly stepping out of Chardonnay’s big-brother shadow, so to say. Numerous producers are investing seriously in quality, reviving old-vine parcels with passion and precision. If you haven’t yet explored this exciting grape, now is the time. You’ll find many of the leading producers featured in the selection of this theme auction. It's pretty banger, so don't miss out!
