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 2012
$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!

Crocker & Starr Napa Cabernet Franc 2019 750ml
$90.00Add to cartThis is a prestige Cabernet Franc that acts as an introduction to the Crocker & Starr portfolio. When Charlie Crocker was looking for a winemaker to take the reigns of his Napa estate after decades of selling grapes and making wine for friends and family he chose winemaker Pam Starr because of her gorgeous Bordeaux-styled California wines at Spottswoode. This blend is based on the right bank of Bordeaux and is led by Cabernet Franc which gives the wine a gorgeous and earthy lift.

Dal Forno Romano Amarone Monte Lodoletta 2017 750ml
$504.00Add to cartThis is a wine that will reward patience. Like most Amarone’s the Dal Forno is brooding, brimming with dark cherries and violets that play off the spice, earth, and coffee notes that add complexity. This balance between the rich acidity, the savory umami, and the fresh fruit leave this looking like a linebacker dancing a ballet. It’s graceful.
-
Daniel-Etienne Defaix Chablis 1er Cru Cote de Lechet 2009
$75.00Add to cartThis is a fascinating wine. Most people’s conception of Chablis is that it should be drunk young, preferably with oysters, but this wine provides an aged counter-point. It has a nutty and almost sherry-like nose that you would think is prematurely oxidized, but the palate is so fresh it’s like sucking on an electric lemon.

Dom Perignon Champagne Brut Vintage 2013
$280.00Add to cartDom is a status symbol. It’s a marquee of the large house Champagnes, and it’s known to many the world over as the mark of celebration for major life milestones. Dom describes this vintage as “harmony revealed” and the resonance between the pinots noirs and chardonnays, and between the acidity and full bodied textures. It’s boisterous apples with fine, and persistent bubbles. Truly worth the celebration, even if you’re only celebrating opening the bottle of 2013 Dom.

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 Alary L’Estevenas Cairanne Blanc 2022
$23.00Add to cartA very cool family run domaine with centuries of history. The Alary’s have actually been in the shop to pour, and we loved getting to meet them. Their organically made wines are delicious and really out drink their price point. This blend of Clairette and Roussanne is very expressive with a beautiful complexity, ripe white fruit such as (peaches, mirabelle plums) and delicate fragrance of white flowers such as acacia and lime appear as well as minerality.

Co-owner of Domaine de la Romanée Conti, one of the judges at the “Tasting of Paris,” and owner of today’s allocations from Domaine de Villaine which is nestled in the Côte Chalonnaise (smack dab between Chassagne-Montrachet and Santenay to the north and Rully and Mercurey to the south), Villaine has spent a life quietly dedicated to excellence in farming and winemaking.Domaine de Villaine has been the perfect vehicle for Aubert to explore his love of winemaking over the past few decades without the international reputation (and prices) of DRC. Today, the domaine is run by Aubert’s nephew Pierre de Benoist, who shares his uncle’s love of organic agriculture and terrior driven winemaking. The wines they make are pure Burgundy and still offer an exceptional value in a category that rarely sees any.This whole cluster Pinot has a slight reductive quality on opening but opens up in to something deeply textured and dense but still elegant. The racy acidity brings out the delicate earthy, floral, and fruity flavors that are there in abundance. Drink now or cellar for the next 10 years. Let it breathe before tasting to get the most out of it.
-
Domaine des Baumard Clos du Papillon 2018
$78.00Add to cartThe wines from Clos du Papillon (so-named for its unique butterfly shape) is one of the great examples of Savennières. It has all the delicious mineral infusion from the volcanic rock in the schist soils that deserves more praise than it gets. Overwhelming orchard fruit, white flowers, earthy minerality, and striking acid make this an adventure every time.
-
Domaine des Baumard Savennieres 2018 375 ml
$25.00Add to cartBaumard’s Savennières are enthralling and worth the wait to age, but are so enticing it’s hard to want to wait. The piercing minerality is offset by a deep ripeness with distinct flavors of stone fruits, spices and honey. These are special wines from a stellar producer that should be savored, but not in any precious way. A 375mL will be a perfect individual portion to get a taste of just how good the ground floor is at Baumard and give a peek at how high the highs can be.

$49.00Add to cart -
Domaine Eden Cabernet Sauvignon 2018
$69.00Add to cartIn the heart of the Santa Cruz mountains Domaine Eden is growing some great fruit. While they produce Pinot and Chard the Cabernet is special with critics like Antonio Galloni saying, “This might very well be the best value in artisan, high-end California Cabernet.”
It’s full of dark fruits and is classic Santa Cruz with huge gobs of black fruit and herbs that aren’t over heavy. It will improve with age but is a delight now.
-
Domaine Faiveley Nuits Saint Georges Les Montroziers 2021
$113.00Add to cartDomaine Faiveley is a juggernaut in Burgundy, but one who rarely disappoints. The wines are classically styled, ageable, and seek to express terroir. A solidly made wine all around.

$21.00Add to cartSurrounded by oak and pine forests and bordered by the Issole, Domaine Gavoty is a polycultural farm encompassing over 200 acres, and the family has worked the land without synthetic chemicals for decades, recently obtaining organic certification. The rosés they produce is the antithesis of modern Provençal rosé that is made to glug down as fast as possible. The “Récital” delivers a beautiful color, salinity, and bright fruits but with notable texture and panache. A standout from a producer who does things their own way.

Domaine Guiberteau 2020 Saumur Blanc Breze
$145.00Add to cartOne of the most sought after producers in the Loire. The wines of Domaine Guiberteau are for those really in the know. The legendary Becky Wasserman has this to say about Guiberteau: Romain Guiberteau owns some of the best land in Brézé, and makes dry chenins of punk rock violence, yet of Bach-like logic and profoundness.
This wine from Brézé is one of the peaks of Chenin Blanc. It’s incredibly dry with ripping texture and acid. It’s like watching a linebacker dance ballet.
-
Domaine JL Chave Hermitage Blanc 2020
$365.00Add to cartChave is a consummate storyteller, but he is particualrly bullish about this vintage of whites in how strongly they show the terroir. Some of Chave’s oldest vines are here and bring in beautiful grapes from Hermitage hill. This is the glory that Marsanne can bring when treated by a master. It will rival some of the great white burgundies when drank young or with 10+ years of age.
-
Domaine Labbe Vin de Savoie Abymes 2021
$19.00Add to cartRoger Labbe’s Abymes is 100% Jacquère, a varietal that grows especially well in the Savoie region of France. While other grapes can be included Labbe chose to showcase the excellent grapes at his disposal in the undersung corner of France.

Domaine Ostertag Pinot Gris Fronholz
$75.00Add to cartAn iconoclast in Alsace who cut his teeth in the fields of Burgundy.

This wine is one that starts subtly but with time transforms into a delicious and more viscous Pinot Gris.
