In this episode of Pour One Daily, we travel to the Loire Valley to uncork one of France’s most iconic white wines — the 2023 Domaine Reverdy Sancerre Blanc. Host James explores the Reverdy family’s generations-deep roots in Verdigny, their devotion to the limestone and flint soils that define Sancerre, and how these elements shape Sauvignon Blanc into something both crystalline and soulful.

You’ll hear how the 2023 vintage delivered perfect balance — cool mornings, sunlit days, and fruit bursting with energy — producing a wine that hums with citrus, chalk, and sea breeze minerality. Together we taste the wine as it evolves in the glass, from bright lime and gooseberry at first pour to soft white peach and flint-smoke complexity after two hours.

Finally, we take it to the table: from the classic pairing of goat cheese and fresh herbs to an asparagus risotto, to a daring match with Thai shrimp curry that proves great Sancerre is as versatile as it is elegant.

A must-listen episode for anyone who believes that great white wine should speak not just of fruit, but of the earth beneath it.

In this episode of Pour One Daily, we head to the heart of Burgundy to uncork a wine that delivers Meursault pedigree without the Meursault price tag — the 2022 Domaine Matrot Bourgogne Blanc.

Host James explores the Matrot family’s six generations of winemaking in Meursault, their commitment to tradition and sustainable farming, and how this deceptively simple Bourgogne Blanc captures the soul of great white Burgundy. You’ll hear how the 2022 vintage — warm but balanced — shaped a Chardonnay that’s both generous and electric.

We’ll taste it together from opening to two hours in the glass, following its evolution from bright green apple and lemon zest to creamy pear, hazelnut, and flinty minerality. And then, we bring it to the table — pairing it with roast chicken and lemon, a wild mushroom risotto, and even a sushi night twist that shows just how versatile great white Burgundy can be.

A perfect episode for anyone who believes true elegance doesn’t have to come with a grand cru label.
