Ever since I opened the Princeton Corkscrew, I have dreamed of putting together a top tier sampler — a “Grand Cru” collection, if you will — a selection of wines that highlight the perfect marriage of grape, site and history: the ultimate expression of terroir. In 2020, I decided to make it a reality and our first Grand Cru Sampler was born. In 2022, we offered the second version of this prestigious selection. I am excited to announce that, once again, I have carefully curated a selection of wines from the most hallowed terroir, made by some of the most revered names in the world of wine, all of which are the pinnacle of varietal, vineyard and style. 

This third iteration is the perfect gift for any wine collector or aficionado. Here, in one six-bottle collection, are some of the greatest grapes in the world, grown in their classic regions: Alsace Grand Cru, Chardonnay and Pinot Noir from Burgundy, Second-Growth Bordeaux from Saint-Julien, Tempranillo from Rioja and Nebbiolo from Barolo. These world-class regions produce wines of the highest quality, wines that are emulated the world over; they are the bar by which all others are measured. Do not miss this opportunity to discover and enjoy la crême de la crême!
