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.

Herb Lamb Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon 2016 750ml
$387.00Add to cartThe wines from Herb Lamb were a special grower take on Napa Cab, that are now unfortunately in a rebuilding phase after the Glass Fires swept through the region destroying their operation along the way. But this wine, oh this wine is just coming into its own. The reserve is the best of the best and if you are looking for the perfect Napa Cab this is a wine to drink now or save for the next decade.

Klein Costancia Vin de Constance 2019 500ml
$99.00Add to cartThis is a very premium dessert wine from a storied South African producer. Made with 100% Muscat de Frontignan, the Klein Constantia almost has a Sauternes-like quality, even if it’s made differently. It’s beautifully ripe but balanced. It’s like a rich buttery peach pastry; it’s opulent, but the fruit still shines through and is bolstered by rich spice and honeyed lemon curd. Below it all is a fine edge of minerality. An absolutely stellar way to finish a meal.

Lioco Mendocino County Pinot Noir 2022
$32.00Add to cartPinot Noir loves a cool climate, so the strong influence of the cold Pacific air is the perfect place to grow this grape. The vintage was difficult for growers, meaning that the fruit that did make it to the winemakers was concentrated and expressive—perfect for Pinot lovers. Blending fruit from four sites around the county allowed Lioco to produce a gorgeously balanced wine that takes the best characteristics from each of their sites to produce a wine that tastes like Northern California: brambly coastal berries (cherry, black raspberry), pine resin, dried tobacco, iron, salinity, and blue florals.

Lioco Sonoma County Chardonnay 2022

Pichler Krutzler Gruner Veltliner Durnstein 2022
$31.00Add to cartHusband Erich Krutzler and wife Elisabeth Pichler-Krutzler farm 10 hectares (22.2 acres) of vines organically. The Gruner Veltliner wine is sustainable, fresh, and full of stony flavors and fruit. We’d go as far as saying this is an entry-level Austrian wine that will transport you to the Wachau where you can watch the Danube river in your minds eye flow towards Vienna and eventually into the Black Sea.
