🌿 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. Farmed by the Heintz family for 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 became the first to bottle a single-vineyard Charles Heintz Chardonnay in 1994. The proximity to the ocean delivers early bud break, moderate summers, and an "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, 1982), Pinot Noir (Pommard 4, 113, 115, Swan, Beringer — 1996/2000), and Syrah (Clones 174, 470, plus a Jean-Louis Chave field selection — 2002). Its client list reads like a who's who of California fine wine: Littorai, DuMOL, Williams Selyem, Ceritas, Senses, Cruse Wine Co., Flowers, Freeman, LIOCO, and more — a roster that speaks to its Grand Cru-calibre reputation.

🏛️ About the Producers
Franck Bonville — A family estate in Avize and Oger on the Côte des Blancs, working exclusively with Grand Cru Chardonnay. Their Blanc de Blancs are mineral-driven, precise, and elegantly restrained.
Laherte Frères — A seventh-generation grower-producer in Chavot near Épernay, farming organically across multiple terroirs. Known for multi-varietal blends, single-vineyard cuvées, and minimal dosage — a reference point for modern grower Champagne.
Dumangin J. Fils — A Premier Cru house in Chigny-les-Roses on the Montagne de Reims, with a focus on vintage-dated Champagnes and extended lees aging. Their 2004 is a masterclass in what two decades of patience can reveal.
Drappier — A historic family house in Urville (Côte des Bar), renowned for Pinot Noir-based Champagnes. Also one of the rare producers of Coteaux Champenois — still wines from Champagne's vineyards that most drinkers never encounter.
Domaine Jean Vesselle — A grower in Bouzy, one of Champagne's most celebrated Grand Cru Pinot Noir villages. Their Bouzy Rouge is a benchmark for still red wine from the region — no bubbles, all structure and terroir.

🍇 About the Producers
- Tolpuddle Vineyard (Tasmania)
Acquired by Shaw + Smith's Michael Hill Smith MW and Martin Shaw in 2011, Tolpuddle sits in the Coal River Valley — one of Australia's coolest and southernmost wine regions. The vineyard was originally planted in 1988 and has earned a reputation as a source of world-class Chardonnay and Pinot Noir with extraordinary purity and ageing potential. Often referred to as "Australia's answer to Montrachet."
- By Farr (Geelong, Victoria)
Founded by Gary Farr after decades at Bannockburn and Domaine Dujac in Burgundy, By Farr produces some of Australia's most Burgundian Pinot Noir and most refined cool-climate Shiraz. The Farrside vineyard sits on volcanic basalt soils, delivering wines of structure, depth, and unmistakable sense of place.
- Torbreck & Sami-Odi (Barossa Valley)
Torbreck's RunRig is one of Australia's most celebrated Shiraz bottlings — a Rhône-inspired blend of old-vine Shiraz and Viognier, consistently scoring 97–100 points. Sami-Odi is the personal project of former Torbreck winemaker Fraser McKinley, crafted from a single plot of century-old vines in the Hoffnungsthal sub-region, with 'Little Wine' #14 representing a radical multi-vintage blend across 10 harvests.
