Iā€™m going to pretend I missed the OPā€™s revision to the criteriaā€¦ :wow:

Lafougeā€™s reds in Auxey
Audoin reds, Marsannay. I like the Favieres best, but many good options
Berthaut-Gerbet Fixins (delicious, on the hedonistic side)
Gelin Fixins

Just over at ~ US$125 on release:
I second @Dinesh_Goyal with Fourrier Gevrey vv

White (these are Chablis, but many other decent whites mentioned already)
Pattes Loup Vents Ange
Fevre

I was happy with Simon Bize until the wine style changed a bit. The whites were fantastic, but have moved a bit more oxidative in styleā€¦ The reds have remained quite good, but still not as nice as older vintages.

Donā€™t actually have much experience with the whites, as Iā€™ve mostly reached for Simon Bize reds. I think the reds now are drinking much better young as they have in the past, but maybe not quite as complex. Such is Burgundy these days :man_shrugging:

Henri Gouges is top notch. The price of the SVDs have gone through the roof though and I hope the entry level wine stays in the $60-$80 range, but I have my doubts.

Probably a good idea to also mention whether the price is retail or allocation. Maybe irrelevant to many here with their own businesses getting these cheap allocations but for a private individual some of these prices donā€™t make sense. How are you finding these bottles sub-100$ in US when they sit comfortably in 150-175 range in Europe? Retail, of course.

Not sure how helpful it is to mention that certain bottles are 4 times cheaper on release than secondary market.

From more poor Eastern European perspective, these would be my picks:

Arlaud MSD or GC.
Georges Noellat VR or NSG but just below or at $100.
Vincent Girardin Volnay.
Paul Pilot CM reds.
Sigaut CM. Can even find some 1ers in this range.
