Confessions of a Former ‘Candy and Beer’ Pairer

Image
Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered, head quite beery, Over many a forgotten and cringe listicle built to bore, While I guzzled, interest sapping, suddenly there came a tapping, As of someone gently rapping, rapping at the newsroom door. “Tis some visitor,” I muttered, ”tapping at the newsroom door — Only this, and nothing more.” Edgar Allen Poe understood the horror of shame as well as any author in the American canon.

Image
It’s often said that the only certainties in life are death and taxes. But, if we were to propose a third guarantee, it might very well be that American drinkers will go heavy on light. That is, light beers from big mass-market brewers.

Domaine Long-Depaquit Chablis 1er Cru ‘Les Vaillons’ 2020, Chablis, France

Image
Chablis is the northernmost outpost of France’s Burgundy, known for its mineral-driven Chardonnays from limestone-clay soils that are remnants of the ancient ocean that once covered the region. Most Chablis is vinified without oak — its minerality provides more than enough interest and texture in the wines. In fact, Chablis is the benchmark by which unoaked Chardonnays are judged, and most don’t come close.
