Felsina Vin Santo 375ml 2017
$76.00Add to cartThis Chianti Classico wine is embodied by the “mother” (the remains of the previous vintages) being moved from the previous years casks to the next. The Trebbiano, Malvasia, and Sangiovese grapes are carefully dried out before aging. This is one of our favorite sweet wines (a category that needs so much more love) and we think everyone, but especially Italian wine lovers, should try this.

Paolo Bea Santa Chiara 2020
$72.00Add to cartPaolo Bea is a singular winemaker who commands an amazing amount of respect from wine drinkers who bristled at the hyper-modernization that was happening around the world in the 90s and 2000s. His wines are deeply traditional. The Santa Chiara is a white wine produced from Grechetto, Malvasia, Chardonnay, Sauvignon and Garganega, in approximately equal proportions, planted in the Pagliaro vineyard.

Sono Montenidoli Vernaccia di San Gimignano 2023
$36.00Add to cartA gorgeously savory organic whire that’s a favorite of Olivia. Montenidoli’s estate is in the Tuscan hills between Siena and Florence and they produce distinct wines that have impressed other winemaking luminaries across the world.
Olivia’s pick comes from a producer that we’ve carried before but has recently returned to the shop. That’s right, fan (and staff) favorite Tuscan producer Montenidoli is back (for now). This beautifully textured white wine is fermented and aged in stainless steel but has a bit more skin contact than many white wines, imparting a firmer texture and deeper color. Delicious.
