Even though, over the decades, there have been some very fine, sparkling wines produced in California, none has ever had the cachet of Champagne and never has there been a cult-like producer like, say, Jacques Selosse or any of those other unicorn...

Marsannay-la-Cote is the northernmost appellation in the Cotes de Nuits and, as also its coolest spot temperature-wise, a beneficiary rather than a victim of the recent string of warm to hot vintages in Burgundy. Back in the old days, even the best...
