Domaine Hippolyte Reverdy Sancerre 2019
92+
Our Score
(11/2020) Incredibly dense and rich on the palate with spine-tingling acidity, the 2019 vintage of this long-time Vin Chicago favorite is the best we've tasted in several years. The glass greets you with fleshy tangerine, tense nectarine, grapefruit pith and tropical guava. The lively and energetic mouthfeel is highlighted by chalky grip and silver stone minerality which flows through the long finish. A complex and perfectly complete premium Sancerre to enjoy anytime.

Beckmen Santa Ynez Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2018

Vinous, Antonio Galloni
(8/2020) "The 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon (Santa Ynez Valley) is rich and explosive out of the glass. Inky dark fruit, grilled herbs, leather, licorice and a host of earthy notes flesh out in an expansive wine endowed with tremendous depth and complexity. This is such a gorgeous Cabernet Sauvignon. Drink 2021 - 2030."

Desparada "Fragment" California Sauvignon Blanc 2019
This gorgeous Sauvignon Blanc is the bottliong that put the energetic, dynamic, exuberant, vivacious Vailia From on the map. A striking wine from a woman for whom adjectives barely do justice!

Wine Spectator
(9/23/2020) "Intense, offering a mouthwatering mix of grapefruit, pomelo and lime zest flavors that are bright and refreshing, on a sleek, crisp frame. Lemon verbena, freshly grated ginger and orange blossom notes linger on the powerful finish. Drink now. 588 cases made."

Daou Paso Robles Cabernet Sauvignon 2018
92
Wine Advocate
(1/31/2020) "This entry-level Cabernet Sauvignon is the only Cabernet in the Daou portfolio made entirely of purchased fruit and is intended to be drunk young. The 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon is made up of 78% Cabernet Sauvignon, 13% Merlot, 8% Petit Verdot and 1% Cabernet Franc aged 11 months in 60% new French oak. Deep ruby-purple, it opens with pure creme de cassis and meaty touches, slow to unfurl, over pure blackberries, cedar and dried thyme. Medium to full-bodied, it explodes with flavor in the mouth, purely defined but very ripe, with a very finely grained frame and a youthful cloaking of new oak, finishing long, fresh and classy."

Iconic Wine Co. "One Shot White" Napa Valley 2019
A sensational Napa Valley white blend from a secret source!
90+
Our Score
90+/100 - Our Score (12/2020) The majority of juice for this Napa Valley white was covertly sourced from a highly respected Napa Valley producer known for their unique whites. Crafted by Birk O'Halloran, the "One Shot White" is a blend of Tocai Friulano, Sauvignon Blanc and Chardonnay. This delicious Napa bottling offers stone, citrus and orchard fruit flavors and medium-plus minerality in a bright, zesty and oh-so-yummy package. PLUS, the label features pandas in jet packs! A seriously impressive wine at a price that is half that of the source winery.

Bodegas Enrique Mendoza "La Tremenda" Alicante Monastrell 2017
92
Wine Advocate
(4/30/2019) "The pure Monastrell 2017 La Tremenda always represents great value and showcases the behavior of the grape in the Mediterranean climate and soil from Alicante. The grapes from 25-year-old vines fermented in small stainless steel vats, and the wine matured in French oak barrels for six months. There are notes of fresh fruit, rosemary and thyme, with clean aromas, open and expressive. The palate is juicy and round, and this is an entry-level red that represents the higher volume in the winery. This wine reflects the changes over the last seven or eight years: they do three tries of the harvest, and the first bunches tend to go to this wine. The well-seasoned barrels also go to this wine, and the vinification is much softer. The result is fruit-driven, with just a spicy twist. 2017 seems a lot cooler in the Mediterranean part of Spain than in most of the inland regions like Rioja, Ribera del Duero and so on. This is a bargain Monastrell."
