Azores Arinto Dos Acores Blanco 2022
$63.00Add to cartThis is a fascinating wine that comes from the far flung Azore islands in the middle of the Atlantic. hailing from Pico island from about 200 acres of very low-yield vineyards surrounded by small walls, locally known as currias, growing in pure volcanic basalt with no top soils. It’s cold and we and the vines struggle for sunlight between the unforgiving wind and driving rain. The fact that this wine exists is a bit of a miracle. This wine is made with 100% Arinto dos Açores and is a unique varietal that has adapted to the harsh conditions and expresses an incredible mineral depth girded by salinity that farm the bright grapefruit and underripe stone fruit flavors.

Castelfeder Kerner Lahn
$29.00Add to cartHeading into Alto Adige (the far northern, semi-autonomous region of Italy that borders Austria) is like stepping into German wine country.

This German grape is a cross between Trollinger and Riesling and is named after the Swabian poet Justinus Kerner. It’s got great acidity, a vibrant freshness, and rich lemon, peach, and mango flavors.

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.

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!

$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.

Feudi Branciforti dei Bordonaro Terre Siciliane Grillo 2023
$19.00Add to cartAn ancient grape variety that doesn’t get enough press. This is a pure example that captures the freshness Grillo can have in the right hands. The location of the vineyard gives fantastic sunshine and the altitude slows down the development. The result is herbal but still refreshing.

Foxen Chenin Blanc Ernesto Wickenden Vineyard 2023
$39.00Add to cartFoxen is a legend in Santa Barbara wine country. Founded by Dick Doré and Bill Wathen in the late 70s it wasn’t until the late 80’s that they got their license (the 13th in the region which now is home to over 200). They work with some of the best fruit in the region where winemaker David Whitehair seeks to express the fruit cleanly.
This wine (and all the estate fruit) is an anomaly in the region as Foxen has own-rooted, dry farmed grapes on their estate. The fact that they can do this is quite frankly wild. In a place where pretty much everyone irrigates they don’t have to. The quirks of geography can be a funny thing. This chenin is proof that great wines can come from unlikely corners of the world.

Foxen Santa Maria Valley Pinot Noir 2020
$50.00Add to cartFoxen is a legend in Santa Barbara wine country. Founded by Dick Doré and Bill Wathen in the late 70s it wasn’t until the late 80’s that they got their license (the 13th in the region which now is home to over 200). They work with some of the best fruit in the region where winemaker David Whitehair seeks to express the fruit cleanly. This fruit comes from the cooler pinot plots of Santa Maria which is closer to the coast than Foxen Canyon. The wine is a delightful pinot with all the hallmarks of fruit that benefits from a big shift between the night and day temperatures, and like all great Santa Barbara wines there’s a distinct tell of salinity.
