🏛️ About Chichibu Distillery
Founded by Ichiro Akuto in 2008, Chichibu is the pioneer of Japan's new wave of craft whisky and the first distillery to receive a production license in the country in 35 years. Rooted in a family legacy that stretches back to 1625, Ichiro built on generations of brewing heritage to create a micro-scale distillery in Saitama Prefecture, producing just 60,000–90,000 litres per year using custom Scottish copper pot stills, in-house floor malting, and traditional Mizunara oak washbacks.
What sets Chichibu apart is its philosophy: rather than chasing one house style, Ichiro crafts a wide range of expressions such as peated, unpeated, aged in everything from ex-bourbon and sherry to IPA beer casks and the rare, highly coveted Mizunara oak. The result is some of the most sought-after and collectible whisky in the world, with limited releases that sell out instantly and a cult following that spans from Tokyo bars to global auction houses.

🌿 About Charles Heintz Vineyard
Charles Heintz Ranch sits on the second ridge in from the Pacific Ocean at 900 ft. elevation in western Sonoma County's Occidental region, within the West Sonoma Coast AVA. Farmed by the Heintz family for over 100 years and elevated by third-generation grower Charles Heintz, the vineyard has been one of California's most important sources of premium Chardonnay since the 1990s.
Littorai, under Ted Lemon, the first American to serve as winemaker at a Burgundy domaine (Domaine Guy Roulot in Meursault) became the first producer to bottle a single-vineyard Charles Heintz Chardonnay in 1994, establishing the site's reputation for Burgundian tension and mineral drive. DuMOL's 'Isobel' bottling, crafted by Andy Smith, showcases a richer, more textural Californian classicism,creamy, layered, and built for the cellar. Senses, the passion project of three childhood friends from Occidental, delivers a newer-generation perspective, energetic, precise, and full of surprises.
The proximity to the Pacific delivers early bud break, moderate summers, and an extended "Indian summer" that pushes harvest into October. The soil is Goldridge sandy loam, prized for drainage and mineral complexity. The 55-acre site is planted to Chardonnay (Clone 4, planted 1982), Pinot Noir, and Syrah and its client list reads like a who's who of California fine wine: Littorai, DuMOL, Williams Selyem, Ceritas, Senses, Cruse Wine Co., Flowers, Freeman, and more.

🌿 About Mont Damné & Clos la Néore
Mont Damné, ”the Damned Mountain" is a steep, south-facing hillside rising above the village of Chavignol in the Sancerre appellation, Central Loire Valley. With gradients exceeding 50% and soils of Kimmeridgian marl and limestone, the same geological formation found in Chablis and parts of Champagne.
It is widely regarded as Sancerre's unofficial Grand Cru, producing Sauvignon Blancs of extraordinary concentration, mineral complexity, and age-worthiness.
Didier Dagueneau, the legendary and iconoclastic vigneron of Pouilly-Fumé, acquired a parcel on Mont Damné to create what he believed could be the ultimate expression of Loire Sauvignon Blanc. Following his tragic passing in 2008, son Louis-Benjamin has continued the vision with the same biodynamic rigour and uncompromising winemaking, the Sancerre 'Le Mont Damné' remains one of the most structured and cellar-worthy wines of the appellation.
Clos la Néore, while technically a separate walled lieu-dit adjacent to Mont Damné in Chavignol, is arguably Sancerre's single most mythical vineyard. Edmond Vatan's tiny production from old vines, often fewer than 3,000 bottles per vintage has achieved near-unicorn status among collectors. Precise, crystalline, and hauntingly pure, it represents Sancerre at its most ethereal.
Vincent Gaudry, farming biodynamically in Sury-en-Vaux, brings a fresher, more naturel-inflected perspective to Mont Damné such as vibrant, sapid, and alive with energy. A rising star whose Mont Damné bottling has earned a devoted following among sommeliers and natural-wine circles alike.
