==========

2024 Domaine Clavel ”Régulus” Côtes du Rhône
Southern Rhône Valley, France
~~~~~~~~~~~
Blending 60% Grenache with 30% Syrah and 10% Marselan, this gorgeous and impressively complex Côtes du Rhône offers a full spectrum of fresh mixed red blue and black berries layered with authentic Rhône Valley notes of warm rocky earth, dried purple flowers, cured meat, black pepper and spice. Our sample bottle was still incredibly delicious on the second day, but we suspect most bottles will be emptied much quicker!

“This is a serious wine. Alluring floral aromas of violet blossom, white peach skin and cranberry entrance the nose along with rosehip and a touch of cassis. The palate celebrates red fruit and orchard citrus with soft tannins that glide to the finish."
          - 92 Points, Wine Enthusiast (12/1/2025)

“Mediterranean herbs, orange peel, licorice and sour cherries on the nose of this full-bodied red. It’s juicy and tangy with fine tannins and a spicy edge. Drink now."
          - 90 Points, James Suckling (11/26/2025)

2024 Rottensteiner ”Kitz” White Blend
Vigneti dell Dolomiti, Italy
~~~~~~~~~~~
Pinot Bianco, Pinot Grigio, Sauvignon Blanc and Müller Thurgau come together in perfect harmony, packing this high elevation white with explosive flavor. We've loved the Rottensteiner "Kitz" in the past, and this 2024 bottling is the best we've tasted!

The aromatic dial on this super fun, anything-but-shy Italian white is turned all the way up, boasting an enticing range of citrus, green pear, peach and apricot aromas along with fresh Alpine scents of spring flowers, boxwood and mint. Mineral focused, the palate adds in exotic mixed fruits atop a zesty, silky smooth, medium-bodied frame. 

Checking in at 12.5% ABV, you can drink this refreshingly delightful white all on its own or enjoy it alongside nearly any light fare. Did someone say picnic?

Along with Vinous and James Suckling, we award an enthusiastic 91 points to this stainless steel aged treat...

“The 2024 Bianco Kitz mixes lemon zest with sweet smoke and rosemary. It displays textures of pure silk while revealing masses of citrus-infused orchard fruits. It finishes long and potent, with an air of chamomile and spice enriched by nuances of custard. Drinking Window: 2025 - 2030."
          - 91 Points, Vinous - Eric Guido (12/2025)

“Fresh and very attractive with spiced apples, star fruit, orange blossom and stony minerality. Polished and sleek, with medium body and clean-cut acidity carrying vivid fruit through the long, flavorful finish. Drink now or hold."
