SUMMER CLOSURE JULY 1-15
FRENCH BISTRO WINE DINNER JUNE 27
DOMAINE DE LA CADETTE
Hello from the Caviste:

We hope you all are staying cool during these summer days - we are piling up the stack of books to read this summer.

One of our favorite detective series is Martin Walker's Bruno, Chief of Police series. The mysteries take place in the south of France, where murder and intrigue seem to constantly interrupt Bruno, a policeman, and his idyllic rural countryside life. Bruno is also an avid lover of all food and wine, and interspersed in the pages are fun references to either a classic French dish he is making, or a glass of wine he is enjoying. Here is one we would recommend: The Dark Vineyard
Be ready to stock up on wine before we break for the holidays. A reminder that we will be CLOSED JULY 1-15.

Your last chance before we break for the holidays to wine and dine with us will be Thursday, June 27, the French Bistro dinner. We still have seats available. Enjoy!

Cheers!

Domaine de la Cadette

As you know, we love our burgundies. Domaine de la Cadette, imported by Kermit Lynch Wine Imports, is one of our favorites and is still an under-the-radar gem.

DOMAINE DE LA CADETTE

A family estate that is part of a quiet revolution of estate bottling, based in Vézelay, the northern part of Burgundy. Vézelay is 60 miles northwest of Beaune and 30 miles south of Chablis. Jean and Catherine Montanet planted their first vineyards in 1987, but did not start estate bottling until much later. Their good friend, the brilliant Bernard Raveneau, introduced them to Kermit, and the rest is history.

While Vézelay is attached to Chablis, the soil is much different with a range of different clays - blue, gray and red. Cooler than Chablis but still much sun exposure, the wines minerally and structured. Great for this time of the year.

Their son Valentin joined them in 2010 and now manages the domaine, espousing his parents' philosophy of organic farming and natural vinification to craft refreshing, mineral-driven whites and reds.

La Cadette

A drink-now red burgundy without having to think much about where it comes from. Black raspberries and cherries, juicy like a beaujolais but structured like a deep earthy pinot.
