La Lunotte
Touraine, France



Christophe Foucher is a bit of an underdog’s underdog, consistently releasing wines of a certain purity and clarity, with prices that belie the quality. It’s hard for a lot of Americans who’ve bit hard into the neoliberal capitalist dream to understand that wines can be this plush at $25, but Foucher is of a certain ilk that do their own thing, and he never releases bottles until he feels the wines are of a certain standard—lovely juices that feel both rustic and fancy, and most importantly downright enjoyable.
