Wednesday, November 20th we are thrilled to be hosting Laurie Caslot from Domaine de la Chevalerie in the Bourgueuil appellation of the Loire Valley. The Chevalerie wines have been featured several times in our Direct Press wine club, most recently in our October 2024 Loire Valley issue. The Caslot family are making some of the most soulful, ageworthy Cabernet Francs we've encountered and yet they continue to be affordable, with many of the wines barely topping $30. Their ability to express the subtleties of terroir and soil is matched by few.

Their estate and cellar are made up of caves and tunnels dating back to the 11th century. Laurie and her brother Emmanuel have continued their family's 14 generations of work in Bourgueil after the tragic passing of their father Pierre in 2014 and their sister Stephanie in 2021. Pierre stopped using herbicides in the 1990s and when Emmanuel and Stephanie joined him in the early 2000s they converted to organics, biodynamics, and hand-harvesting. Their vineyard work and winemaking is extremely detailed and results in such special wines. You can read more here by the esteemed Pascaline Lepeltier.

Our friends at Chambers St Wines and Chambers restaurant are hosting a sold-out dinner with Laurie on Tuesday, and we are very happy to be able to spread the opportunity to meet and taste with her on Wednesday of next week.
