Chateau Lynch-Bages Blanc de Lynch-Bages, Bordeaux, 2020
$120.00Add to cartWe came late to this and could only grab 2 bottles but the reviews for this wine are stellar across the internet. We suspect this will be gone before anyone gets a chance read this but here’s what we can tell you. 70% Sauvignon Blanc, 20% Semillon, 10% Muscadelle. 1990 was the first vintage this wine was produced and the 2020 is the first vintage with new equipment to more precisely control oxygen levels and temperatures. Fermented in oak (50% new) and aged on the lees for 6 months the Lynch Bages Blanc is one of the most rewarding drinking experiences in white wine.

Chateau Talbot Saint Julien 2020
$99.00Add to cartChateau Talbot is a 4th Cru Classé in Saint-Julien and is one of the Médoc’s most emblematic names. It’s one of the Medoc’s oldest estates, and through the years has been fortunate enough to remain in good hands. The current owners are the fourth generation of the same family managing Talbot.
The soils are well raised and gravelly producing classic Bordeaux aromas all in a balanced package. It’s lively and framed by a sensational texture and a lingering finish. Aromas of plum confit, crème de cassis, tobacco, licorice, and roasted herbs mingle with a woody, charcuterie-like savory note that will only deepen with age.

Clos Mogador Priorat Tinto 2020
$144.00Add to cartThe estate of Clos Mogador is a must try for anyone interested in learning about Spanish wine. From the heart of Priorat René Barbier creates this heady Garnacha-dominant blend. It has structure, power, and elegance, but for all that retains finesse—even in old age. Drink now or lay down for 10+ years.

Cooper Mountain Vineyards Pinot Gris 2022
$24.00Add to cartThis wine is fresh like a spring morning. It’s in that Goldilocks zone of not too sweet and not too dry but full of flavor–and comes at a great price point.
-
Cosimo Taurino Notarpanaro Rosso 2013
$25.00Add to cartThis wine is an easy recommendation and hopped right out the gates as a staff favorite (especially for Will) showing that no matter the price point you can find wines with depth and soul.
Hailing from Lecce in Puglia (the heel of the Italian boot) where most wine is made in bulk to be drunk out of a jug comes a wine that’s rustic and earthy while still being classic and elegant. This is Grand Cru Puglia, a diamond in the rough?
Cosimo Taurino takes his wines seriously, holding them back for years to tame the tannins and allow them to harmonize in the bottle. This current release is a 2012!

Coutale Clos La Cahors 2022
$23.00Add to cartThis is not the Malbec you probably know. You may not know that until it was popularized by the Argentinians, no one really knew the grape, and in fact most of the vines in Cahors, France were being ripped out. But as its international fame grew a few producers took a look at what they had and decided they could sell make wine with these grapes. We are thankful because this is a delicious, earthier expression that we really enjoy.

D Ventura Vina Do Burato Ribeira Sacra Mencia 2023
$28.00Add to cartFrom a producer who practices organic farming and preaches simplicity, this predominantly Mencia blend is just gorgeous. Earthy, chalky red fruits work harmoniously with schisty, stoney tones redolent of petrichor. Tremendously complex and undeniably delicious, we love this with Iberico ham, a sharp Manchego, or even beer-battered cod.

Daniel-Etienne Defaix Chablis Vielles Vignes 2021
$51.00Add to cartThis Chablis is a delight to drink. It’s everything we like in a young Chablis: crisp, elegant, textured, and possessing a hidden, stony depth that teases itself out across your palate. These wines can age if you have the patience and fortitude to not drink them.

Domaine Alain Voge Saint-Joseph Les Cotes 2021
$65.00Add to cartAlain is a legend in the Rhône. He rewrote the rule book on what great wines from southern France could be. Today led Alberic Mazoyer (who worked for Chapoutier) who still makes incredibly dense and layered wines using organic and biodynamic viticulture. This wine comes from a steep parcel of land in Mauves that has produced a delicious Syrah that has all the layers of fruit, spice, and flowers you could want.

Domaine Bitouzet Prieur Volnay 2021
$80.00Add to cartBen and I were fortunate enough to garner an invitation to taste with Mr. Bitouzet on his first trip to the United States despite having made fantastic (and popular) wines for decades. It was incredible to be able to taste the line-up with the producer and hear Neal Rosenthal tell stories about their relationship and the wines. What struck us, though, during the tasting was how much soul the wines have. There are other producers who make similar wines from similar parcels of land but these wines have a marked depth and are all absolutely worth tastings.

Domaine de la Chapelle Des Bois Chiroubles 2022
$22.00Add to cartFrom the heart of Beaujolais comes a delightful gamay. In the vineyards they the principles of lutte raisonnée and minimal intervention in the cellar—spontaneous fermentation, semi-carbonic maceration in cement vats, and aging in 50-year-old wooden casks—produced Beaujolais of vivid fruit, terrific freshness, and structure enough to develop well in bottle. The resulting wine has a vibrant expression of fresh red fruits, delicate tannins, and is very welcoming.

Domaine de La Tour Penet, Macon Peronne Rouge 2023

Domaine des Marechaux Bordeaux Superieur 2020
$17.00Add to cart100% merlot made from 30 year old vines farmed at Europe’s highest level of sustainability. Aged in concrete vats. A really great way to learn what merlot should taste like.
This is a fresh take on Bordeaux – has all of the dark fruit you want out of Merlot and a touch of spice, without being overly oaked or tannic. Supple enough to drink on its own or to cut through fatty meats at the table. Definitely over delivers for the price point! – Ben
