La Spinetta "Campe' Della Spinetta" Barolo 2016

96 Wine Advocate

96 James Suckling

97 Vinous, Antonio Galloni
(2/2020) "The 2016 Barolo Campe is superb. Dark, potent and powerful, the 2016 possesses tremendous intensity to match its dark, virile personality. More than anything else, in 2016 the Campe offers a captivating interplay of fruit and structure. The 2016 is not a shy wine; rather it is rich and hedonistic to the core, while maintaining a striking sense of translucence. Black cherry, chocolate, espresso, licorice and clove all build into the huge finish. In a word: Superb. In 2016 Giorgio Rivetti and his team made a Barolo with a sense of classicism I have never seen before to this degree in a La Spinetta wine. Drinking Window: 2023 - 2036."

Ar. Pe. Pe "Fiamme Antiche" Valtellina Superiore Inferno 2012

razy Special Price on this aged Nebbiolo from Lombardia - in Magnum!

93 Wine Enthusiast
(4/1/2018) "Wild berry, rose petal, smoke, new leather and alpine-herb aromas make for a delicate bouquet. Focused and savory, the bright, elegant palate delivers cranberry, pomegranate, white pepper and black tea framed in taut refined tannins and bright acidity. A tangy saline note lingers on the close. While some may find this almost too austere, if you love finesse you'll be captivated. Drink through 2027."

Caymus Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2019

Winemaker's Notes
"Aromas and flavors which can only be achieved through "hang time" - a technique which chances the loss of crop if early winter sets in. Leaving the fruit to "hang" on the vine unusually long develops suppleness, increases color, and matures the tannins of the grapes. The wines are abundant in textural tannins yet soft as velvet. Crop thinning, allowing measured sunlight to reach the vine's fruit zone, and waiting for increased ripeness are all part of our viticultural practices. Caymus Cabernets offer a wide array of aromas and flavors including cocoa, cassis and vanilla."

Domaine Comtesse de Cherisey "Hameau de Blagny" 1er Cru Puligny Montrachet 2016

Special Price on This Small Grower Puligny from Kermit Lynch!

94+ Our Score

Winemaker's Notes
"The Burgundies of Laurent and Helene Martelet are now in the pantheon of the great whites of the Cote d'Or, a fact that is pretty widely recognized in the wine world today. Their years of quiet toil in the Hameau de Blagny, high on the slope below the forest, kept their heads in the clouds and their feet firmly rooted among their vines. They found little need to look down jealously at their neighbors, who now look up to them respectfully. This great cru sits above La Truffiere, and delivers a full-throttle Puligny experience. Rich, layered, and racy, it is flamboyantly noble Chardonnay." - Kermit Lynch

La Spinetta "Gallina" Barbaresco 2016

94 Wine Advocate

95 James Suckling

95 Vinous, Antonio Galloni
(11/2019) "Supremely elegant and light on its feet, La Spinetta's 2016 Barbaresco Vigneto Gallina is simply fabulous. Freshly cut flowers, mint, spice and a touch of French oak add nuance to a core of sweet red/purplish berry fruit. Wonderfully supple and racy, the Gallina captures every bit of the potential 2016 had to offer. This is such a gorgeous wine. I can't remember tasting a Gallina here with this much diversity. Drinking Window: 2020 - 2030."

La Spinetta "Vigneteo Garretti" Barolo 2016

94 James Suckling

94 Wine Advocate
(7/23/2020) "This entry-level Barolo is made with fruit from the younger vines from the Garretti cru in Grinzane Cavour, in the comune where La Spinetta has its ultra modern winery. The 2016 Barolo Vigneto Garretti offers a generous and accessible personality that makes this wine optimal for near or medium-term drinking. The bouquet is layered and rich with dark fruit, licorice, tar and toasted aniseed. The tannins are nicely managed in this vintage, showing both power and elegance. Drink Date: 2023 - 2040."

Rocca Di Montegrossi "Vigneto San Marcellino" Chianti Classico Gran Selezione 2015

95 Decanter

96 Vinous, Antonio Galloni
96/100 Vinous, Antonio Galloni (9/2020) "The 2015 Chianti Classico Vigneto San Marcellino is fabulous. Sweet red cherry, red plum, mint, sweet pipe tobacco, cedar, licorice, blood orange and dried herbs all race out of the glass. The Sangiovese is so expressive. Even so, the 2015 is a wine of reserve. I would cellar it for at least a few years, as it has clearly entered a period of post-bottling closure. Its energy and vibrancy are notable. Drinking Window: 2023 - 2035."

Benedicte and Stephane Tissot "Les Bruyeres" Cotes Du Jura Chardonnay 2017

94+ Wine Advocate
(4/2021) "The 2017 Arbois Chardonnay les Bruyeres was produced with grapes grown on clay soils from the Trias period and matured in barrel for two years. It's quite fresh for a concentrated vintage, given the low yield provoked by the spring frost that decimated the crop. All these 2017s show very good freshness and less alcohol than most wines from the year. It combines power and elegance and comes through as terribly balanced and tasty. Drink Date: 2021 - 2026."

Benedicte and Stephane Tissot "Sursis" Cotes Du Jura Chardonnay 2017

94 Wine Advocate
(4/2021) "The 2017 Cotes du Jura Chardonnay Sursis has more citrus notes, a signature of the Chardonnay grown on Chateau Chalon soils, so this has the character of the bitterness and citrus of the wines from Chateau Chalon. The palate is dry, chalky, very serious and more marked by the soil than the variety. Even if the year was complex, they didn't get frost in Chalon, so they produced six barrels of this, resulting in 1,800 bottles produced. Drink Date: 2019 - 2024."

Nicolas-Jay Willamette Valley Pinot Noir 2016

94 Wine Spectator

93 James Suckling

93 Decanter
(9/23/2019) "This is ripe but restrained for what was a warmer vintage in the Willamette. Aromas of pine cone, hazelnut and dried mushroom are followed by flavours of black cherry and salted watermelon rind. There's a pleasing tension across the 2016 Nicolas-Jay lineup, gliding back and forth between plump, svelte fruit flavours and a subtle, sinewy grip. Drinking Window: 2019 - 2029."

Domaine Charles Audoin "Les Longeroies" Marsannay Rouge 2017

92 Our Score
(5/2021) "From select parcels of the limestone-rich Les Longeroies vineyard in Marsannay, fifth-generation winemaker Cyril Audoin is making some of the highest quality, yet appropriately priced wine in all of Burgundy. An incredibly elegant Pinot, the "Les Longeroies" greets you with autumn leaves, dark cherry, bramble berries, and light spices on the nose. On the palate, you delve into a silky texture, tannic structure, and striking acidity that are usually reserved for the premier cru wines of Burgundy's Cote de Nuits. A special wine like this deserves a special meal, take a little time and prepare something rich - such as an herb-crusted rack of lamb or roast duck with a mushroom sauce. Drink 2021-2031."

Bedrock Wine Co. "The Bedrock Heritage" Sonoma Valley Red Blend 2018

94 Wine Spectator

94 Wine Advocate

94 Wine Enthusiast

94 Vinous, Antonio Galloni
(4/2020) "One the brawnier wines in this range, the 2018 The Bedrock Heritage Wine is dense and powerful, as wines from this Sonoma Valley site so often are. Black cherry, chocolate, licorice, spice, bay leaf and earthy tones add complexity as well as nuance. This virile, potent red is going to need a number of years to be at its very best, but it is already super-impressive. The field blend is approximately 75% Zinfandel, 20% Carignan and 5% Mataro, but includes a total of 27 varieties. Drinking window: 2023 - 2038."

(5/2020) "Pale, glistening gold. Vibrant, mineral-accented citrus and orchard fruits on the nose, along with hints of white flowers, nectarine and fennel that build with air. Juicy and seamless in texture, offering palate-staining pear, tangerine and honeysuckle flavors supported by a spine of smoky minerality. Finishes sappy, minerally and impressively long, showing fine definition and lingering florality. Drinking Window: 2022 - 2028."

Podere Le Ripi "Sogni & Follia" Rosso di Montalcino 2016

92 Wine Advocate

93 Wine Enthusiast
(5/1/2020) "Aromas of red berry, blue flower, leather and an earthy whiff of truffle waft out of the glass. Reflecting the nose, the taut, linear palate shows juicy Marasca cherry, baking spice, camphor and wild herb alongside lithe tannins and fresh acidity. It's savory, with youthful tension and while ready now it will offer several years of enjoyment. It's a fantastic Rosso. Drink through 2022."

Herman Story "Casual Encounters" California Rhone Blend 2018

All the subtlety of Peter Fonda's chopper from Easy Rider and that's exactly why we love it.

93 Our Score
(4/2021) A 15.8% behemoth, this sexy blend of 42% Syrah, 32% Mourvedre, 18% Grenache and 8% Carignan spent an expansive 24 months maturing in French oak barrels, 74% of which were new. To worry this makes it a monolith, however, is unnecessary. There is enough freshness and structure to keep you diving back for more and more. Exploding out of the glass are vivid aromas of blackberry cobbler, lavender, pan searings, violets, blueberry compote, fresh vanilla bean, roasted thyme, maple syrup and a touch of hot asphalt and sun-cracked soil. It feels like what would happen if you poured one of Guigal's revered "La La" Cote Roties into the intake manifold of a supercharged Hemi 'Cuda. This wine is the real deal.

94 Vinous, Antonio Galloni
(1/2021) "The 2019 Zinfandel Kirschenmann Vineyard is the finest wine I have tasted off this site yet.

Rich, ripe and flavorful, the 2019 takes varietal Zinfandel notes and turns up the volume. Inky and rich, with terrific fruit density, the 2019 is the sort of wine that is opened and disappears at the table. This is such a gorgeous vintage for the Duarte. Drinking window: 2022 - 2034."

Artadi "Valdegines" Rioja Alavesa 2013

93 Vinous, Josh Raynolds

92+ John Gilman

95 James Suckling

93 Wine Advocate
(8/30/2016) "The valley of Gines names the 2013 Valdegines, a single plot of Tempranillo vines from a cold terroir (the sun leaves at mid-day) in a cold vintage. This is an austere red, serious, quite different from previous vintages. There was some 630 liters of rain in the growing season and the vintage was challenging, but has often resulted in less ripe wines with more freshness. The tannins are a little more severe than the 2014, a wine that should age nicely in bottle, with the freshness of the cold years. Spicy, cold, austere and long. The wood is remarkably well integrated. This is a very good showing for Valdegines; it really impressed me. Drink Date: 2016 - 2022."

(6/2019) "Youthful magenta color. A highly perfumed bouquet evokes fresh raspberry, cherry, savory herbs and allspice, along with a suave floral topnote. Juicy and lithe on entry, then more broad on the mid-palate, offering appealingly red fruit liqueur, bitter cherry flavors and suggestions of candied flowers and licorice. Finishes spicy and long, with repeating florality and smooth, slow-building tannins. (30% new French oak) Drinking Window: 2022 - 2030."

Sandhi "Mt. Carmel" Sta. Rita Hills Pinot Noir 2014

This wine should sell for $45 or more. Our special price is...special!

Winemaker's Notes
"2012 was our first vintage from this esteemed vineyard, planted in 1991. This south-facing vineyard sits mid-slope, below Rita's Crown and above Sea Smoke. Farmed organically by famed viticulturist Ruben Solorzano, Mt. Carmel has been a huge inspiration in Rajat Parr's winemaking career and to produce wine from this vineyard is a dream come true."

(2/24/2021) "Very full-bodied, deep and generous. Remarkably dark fruited, brooding and powerful, this has an intense tannic weave and a chalky mineral edge. High Syrah content, some of which is aged in oak. Should be good in time. Structured but just a little slim on the mid-palate. Grown mostly on sand. Aged in demi-muids and barriques, 20% new.

Las Jaras Mendocino County Rose 2020

Winemaker's Notes
"Our approach to rose is to think less about the varietal makeup and more about the style and vibe it conveys. So even though our cepage has changed (past vintages have been 100% carignan or only 35% zinfandel, whereas this vintage is 69% zinfandel) the wine is still an evolution of its signature style. Our goal is a wine that is both fruity and savory, and every year we nudge the wine into the direction it needs to go in a quest for balance, deliciousness and refreshment. On the nose, the 2020 Rose is all about big red fruit and hibiscus. On the palate, it is packed with acid and minerality, with a bone-dry finish. It is also texturally interesting, as a result of destemming the zinfandel and pressing immediately."

Sans Liege "The Offering" Santa Barbara County Red 2018

92 Our Score
(5/2021) This bad boy is everything you could want in a modern-styled Grenache, Mourvedre, Syrah blend. Winemaker Curt Schalchlin's flagship cuvee is sourced from ten hand-picked sites. "The Offering" announces its presence loudly, with scents of plump blackberries, black cherry, cinnamon bark, graphite, white pepper, and cocoa dust. With such an incredibly diverse nose you'd think that's as good as it gets, but the true greatness lay in its palate. That's where fresh cedar, red fruit and green olives mingle on a lush, dense body. Finely tuned tannins and striking acidity give this wine a mesmerizing finish. You'll be thinking about this one for days. Drink 2021-2031."

Kelley Fox "Nerthus" Willamette Valley Skin-Contact White 2020

The first question we have is what to call this stuff? It may look like a Rose, but it's not! Kelley's "Nerthus" is a vital, invigorating skin-contact white wine named after a teutonic goddess.

91 Our Score
(3/2021) A unification of 75% old vine "Early Muscat" and 25% Pinot Gris, this perfumed white is fresh and radiant and WILD. Bursting with sweet cherry blossom, rose, kumquat, crisp fresh peach, white cranberry, grapefruit zest and lemon balm, it almost overwhelms at first pour. Give it a moment and the crazy flavors begin to integrate, presenting as less floral and more invigorating as the acidity freshens things up like a lightning bolt right down the spine. A beaming ear-to-ear grin in a bottle.

Sandhi "Bent Rock" Sta. Rita Hills Chardonnay 2016

92-94 Vinous, Antonio Galloni
(9/2018) "The 2016 Chardonnay Bentrock has all the potential to develop into something truly special. Intense and powerful, but also quite fresh because of the north-facing orientation of this block, the Bentrock has a lot to offer. Time in the glass fleshes out the wine nicely, but the best is yet to come."

Jeff Cohn Cellars "The Fallen Angel" El Diablo Vineyard Russian River Valley Grenache 2012

92 Wine Advocate
(12/29/2014) "Normally, when I want great California Grenache, I look to Justin Smith at Saxum or his nearby neighbor, Matt Trevisan, or further south at John Alban in Arroyo Grande, or the incomparable Manfred Krankl at Sine Qua Non. However, Jeff Cohn's beautiful 2012 Grenache The Fallen Angel El Diablo Vineyard is serious Grenache by any standard of measurement. Its deep ruby/purple color is followed by classic notes of lavender, kirsch and licorice. With gorgeous purity, a full-bodied texture and a finish that won't quit, this superb, sexy Grenache can be drunk now and over the next 5-7 years. Drink Date: 2014 - 2021."

Colterenzio "Lafoa" Alto Adige Chardonnay 2017

This special one-time deal we struck delivers you a super-premium limited production Chardonnay at a whopping 45% off its $46 Reference Price!

95 James Suckling

92 Wine Advocate
(7/11/2019) "Opening to a mid-weight style and a saturated off-gold color, the 2017 Alto Adige Chardonnay Lafoa is a proud child of a warm vintage. The wine wears the heat well, with thick and rich aromas of orchard fruit, honey and sweet melon. You also get toasted nut and a touch of vanilla cream. This is a more opulent rendition that would go well with golden artichokes alla Giudecca. Drink Date: 2019 - 2026."

Turley "Juvenile" California Zinfandel 2019

92 Wine Advocate

90 Vinous, Antonio Galloni
(1/2021) "The 2019 Zinfandel Juvenile is sleek, polished and wonderfully nuanced. Silky tannins and lifted aromatics give the 2019 so much immediacy and overall appeal. Crushed red berry fruit, spice, cedar and leather add pretty shades of nuance, with floral notes that perk up the finish. This is an especially refined version of the Juvenile, Turley's young-vine, entry-level offering. Drinking window: 2022 - 2031."

Csetvei Pinceszet Nagy-Somloi Olaszrizling 2017

90+ Our Score
(4/2021) From the volcanic soils of Hungary's Somlo region, this 100% Olaszrizling (aka Welschriesling in Austria, Grasevina in Croatia) is fermented with native yeasts and kept on its lees in small, neutral Hungarian oak barrels for nine months. Aromas and flavors of dried orange peel, lychee and pineapple fruitcake sail over its supple, medium-weight palate, accompanied by a gust of salty sea breeze. Layered with minerality and finished with vivacious acidity, this is a versatile wine that will prove hard to put down. Only 216 cases produced!

Las Jaras "Glou Glou" Mendocino County Red Blend 2020

Winemaker's Notes
"The 2020 evolution of this chuggable, light red tastes like sparkles and bright, summer fruit. Glou Glou has enough acid to stand up to your favorite tomato sauce, as well as intense berry notes that perfectly complement the char of a burger or perfectly cooked pizza crust. Serve this slightly chilled, and you will be the hero of your next backyard barbecue this is the most refreshing red wine ever, and the perfect antidote to long summer days and the heat of the grill. Most of the grapes underwent carbonic maceration, the classic fermentation method of the Beaujolais, which means that fermentation happened inside of berries themselves, causing them to explode in happy, boozy ecstasy. That's how you'll feel when you drink this wine it dances in your mouth. Blend comprises 35% Zinfandel, 50% Carignan, 9% Petite Sirah, 6% Pinot Noir."

(10/2018) "Bright ruby-red. Smoke-tinged dark berry and cherry aromas are complemented by suggestions of cola espresso and candied flowers. Nicely concentrated but lively as well offering sweet red and blue fruit flavors that are energized by building spiciness. Subtle tannins build on the persistent finish which leaves cola and floral notes behind. Drinking window: 2021 - 2027."

Great price on Gramenon, a Demeter-certified Biodynamic estate from the Kermit Lynch portfolio. Wild, terroir-driven wines bottled unfined and unfiltered with minimal sulfur, you never know what you're going to get! 100% Syrah.

Beurer Wurttemberg Trocken Riesling 2020

91 Our Score
5/2021) Vibrancy and energy are the names of the game when it comes to Jochen Beurer's wines. This dry Riesling is composed of grapes from the first pass-over of his vineyards, a couple of weeks before picking for his GG. His farming incorporates biodynamic methods, a general hands-off approach that aims to let the terroir speak in the bottle. Minerality and citrus zest are the main ingredients to this bouncy Riesling. Crushed rock minerality, ocean air, lime zest, lemon pith, apricot and dried white flowers mark this bouncy trocken - a treat at our great price.

Bengoetxe Getariako Txakolina 2019

91 Our Score
(5/2021) A rare certified-organic Txakolina, this gem from the famed Jose Pastor portfolio is a stunner from start to finish. Farmed in a relatively warm, clay-soiled area near the inland village of Olaberria, the wine is comprised of mostly Hondarrabi Zuri with a touch of Gros Manseng - fermented only with native yeasts. Very expressive from the outset, it opens with notes of lime zest, beeswax and almond cookie, supported by a lovely rain-on-the-sidewalk mistiness that carries through a medium-weighted palate replete with crunchy green apple. Eminently refreshing with a touch of maritime salinity, this is quintessential Txakoli, best enjoyed with serrano ham, salt fish or goat cheese-stuffed dates.

Colterenzio "St. Daniel Riserva" Alto Adige Pinot Nero 2017

92 James Suckling

93 Wine Advocate
(9/17/2020) "The Schreckbichl Colterenzio 2017 Alto Adige Pinot Nero Riserva St. Daniel is delicate and perfumed with a lovely bouquet that is redolent of blue flower, violet, nectarine, orange and wild raspberry. The wine is tart and bitter in a playful manner, with wild fruit and rose to round off the finish. The mouthfeel is silky and fine, revealing more of that interwoven floral versus fruit embroidery to enjoy as the wine wraps softly over the palate. Drink Date: 2020 - 2026."

La Boutanche Corsican Red Blend 2019 1.0 LT

90+ Our Score
(4/2021) The much-loved "La Boutanche" series is back at it with this iteration from Corsica's Domaine Santamaria. This blend of Nielluciu and Grenache sees minimal intervention winemaking to produce a fresh and approachable wine that, in ONE-LITER BOTTLES, delivers both quality and quantity! There's so much fruit on this one - dried cherry, macerated strawberry and cranberry erupt from the glass, supported by aromas of crushed violet and cracked peppercorn. Medium-bodied with subtle, chalky tannins and a balanced structure, it would be difficult to sketch-up a more ideal pizza wine!

Forlorn Hope "Queen of the Sierra - Rorick Heritage Vineyard" Amber Wine 2020

90 Our Score
(5/2021) While we love a good amber/orange wine, the category can be a bit of a minefield. Assembled from the fruit of organically-farmed Verdelho, Albarino, Muscat and Chardonnay vines on a single vineyard in the Sierra Foothills, this example from Matthew Rorick is one we really like. Fermented using native yeasts and bottled unfined and unfiltered with minimal sulfur as the only addition, this is a classic example of "hands-off winemaking." With white cherry, stone, grapefruit zest, peach pit, kumquat and gravel nuances playing out on a long tannic finish, there is a robust texture here that belies the refreshing 12% ABV. Very incisive and intense on the palate, this wine is about texture, mouthfeel and minerality rather than fruity simplicity.

Enderle & Moll "Muller" Muller Thurgau 2019

90+ Our Score
(5/2021) Composed of young-vine fruit from both Baden and Mosel, this is a high-toned, expectation-defying Muller-Thurgau which is packed with character. After a few days fermenting on skins with native yeasts, the wine sits on the lees for about nine months, contributing to its broad texture and ample structure. Juicy pear and lime pith envelope its nose and medium-light-bodied palate, supported by a foundation of limestone minerality. Layered with grip, yet approachable, this unique wine is a great way to introduce yourself to summer.
