Rarely would we ever tell the truth. We wanted to hoard them for ourselves, or stash them away to drink with our
sommelier friends in-the-know. Well, Parcelle Picks is our big reveal. This is our selection of the hard-to-find,
ready-to-drink, sometimes well known, maybe obscure, and always limited wines we love most.
Call it a hit list, a daily deal, or whatever you like. It’s the best stuff we have right now—and at the best prices.
Chosen by sommeliers. Ready to drink now.

Pierre Moncuit
Pierre Moncuit, Blanc de Blancs Extra Brut Grand Cru 2008
$79
Here's what you should know about it:
- 2008 is a near-perfect (99 points) rated vintage for Champagne.
- This is made with chardonnay from hard-harvested, old-vines in Les Mesnil-sur-Oger.
- Moncuit’s wines are known for their crispness and minerality, but the age on this bottling has layered nutty, toasty flavors as well.
As sommeliers, we often get asked, “What’s the best wine on the list?”
