Gut Oggau Returns to Chambers Street Wines
A recent tasting of this lineup reminded me of how fantastic, expressive, and pure these wines are. As we are very much in summer now, the freshness of this lineup from all styles white, rose, and red is perfect! Each wine is quite unique and singular, but there is still a nice thread from one to the next, a true familial connection.

Last month I got the chance to spend several days in the region, and it reconfirmed my passion for the complex, dynamic and wide-ranging wines being made today in Champagne. The incredible wines of many Champagne growers and houses can often feel unobtainable, but they aren't! Today I have a list today of 7 of my favorite champagnes at the moment that are all under $70!

A little over ten years ago, we first met Thomas Batardiere, when he had a tiny, cramped "cellar" (actually just a garage) on the side of the road in the small town of Rablay-sur-Layon. Now he and his wife and partner, Marie-Lise are well established in the Anjou region, and producing lovely wines. Today we offer a sparkling rosé from 2021 and their lineup of still wines from the 2023 vintage.
