About Explore 4
4 Bottles Monthly
True to its name, our most popular subscription is a journey through the world of wine, four bottles at a time. Each month, we select wines based on a chosen theme and explain how each bottle fits that theme—it’s wine education and enjoyment in equal measure!
What does it mean to “Drink Like a Somm?” It’s about the enhanced enjoyment that comes with deeper understanding.
Upcoming: Burgundy Basics
Burgundy, one of the world’s most iconic and diverse wine regions, is located in eastern France and spans several notable subregions. Chablis, furthest north, is famed for its crisp, mineral- driven Chardonnay, thanks to its cool climate and Kimmeridgian soils. Moving south, Côte Chalonnaise is where you’ll find Pinot Noirs of structure, complexity, and aging potential. The Mâconnais, benefitting from a warmer, southern climate offers light, fruit-driven Pinot Noirs- exceptional values for everyday drinking. Farthest south (and yes, technically still part of Burgundy), we have Beaujolais, known for Gamay-based reds in fresh, vibrant styles distinct from the Pinot Noir dominating the rest of Burgundy. These regions are just a glimpse of the complex terroir and grape diversity that Burgundy has to offer.
