1. 2022 Francine Bachelier, Chablis "Hommage"

• Winemaker: Francine Bachelier
• Region: Chablis, Burgundy, France
• Farming: Sustainable (HVE Certified)
• Pairing: Oysters, goat cheese, grilled sea bass

Francine Bachelier represents the sixth generation of a family that has been cultivating vines in Chablis since 1883. This cuvée, "Hommage," is a tribute to her late father, Raymond, who first planted these vines in 1980. Working alongside her husband, Olivier Savary, Francine produces a quintessential expression of northern Chablis from prized Kimmeridgian limestone soils. Fermented and aged entirely in stainless steel, this wine is a study in purity, offering bright lemon zest, green apple, and crushed stone notes with a signature saline finish that speaks to the ancient seabed origins of its terroir.

2. 2020 Chiara Condello, Romagna Sangiovese Predappio

• Winemaker: Chiara Condello
• Region: Emilia-Romagna, Italy
• Farming: Organic
• Pairing: Charcuterie, pasta with tomato sauce, pizza

Chiara Condello has single-handedly put the village of Predappio on the fine wine map. After working at her father's estate, she launched her solo project in 2015, focusing on elegant, perfumed expressions of Sangiovese. This entry-level bottling is the perfect introduction to her brilliant work. It sidesteps the trend of powerful, oak-heavy reds in favor of finesse and energy. Expect a refined woodsy savor, a juicy black cherry core, and layers of dried orange peel and violets. It is a stunning value and a testament to the rising quality of Sangiovese from this historic region.

3. 2016 Tenuta Fessina, 'il Musmeci' Etna Rosso Riserva

• Winemaker: Silvia Maestrelli (Founder)
• Region: Mount Etna, Sicily, Italy
• Farming: Certified Organic
• Pairing: Grilled swordfish, mushroom risotto, roasted poultry

Silvia Maestrelli, who sadly passed in 2022, was a true pioneer and the first female winery owner on Mount Etna. Her legacy lives on in wines like "il Musmeci," a remarkable Nerello Mascalese from 80-100 year-old vines rooted in black volcanic soil. The locals refer to Etna as “she,” a powerful mother, and Silvia channeled that energy into her wines. This Etna Rosso Riserva is often compared to fine Pinot Noir or Nebbiolo, offering vibrant strawberry fruit, penetrating minerality, and a silky texture that can only come from ancient vines. It is a powerful tribute to a trailblazing woman and a singular volcanic terroir.

4. 2022 Domaine Julie Belland, Santenay Rouge 1er Cru "Les 3 Terroirs"

• Winemaker: Julie Belland
• Region: Santenay, Burgundy, France
• Farming: Sustainable
• Pairing: Roasted chicken, duck breast, aged Comté

Taking the reins from her father, Roger, Julie Belland is the sixth generation to lead her family's estate, which has been crafting wine in Santenay since 1839. This Premier Cru bottling is a blend from three top vineyard sites, showcasing the complexity and elegance of Santenay Pinot Noir. The wine is a masterclass in balance, with delicate red fruit, earthy undertones, and finely structured tannins. It captures the essence of its noble terroir, shaped by a winemaker with a deep, generational understanding of her land. A fittingly elegant and complex wine to conclude our tour of these remarkable women in wine.
