Field Recordings "Fiction" Paso Robles Red Blend 2018
The 2018 Fiction is a fabulously layered, mouthwateringly good combination of 36% Zinfandel, 15% Cabernet Franc, 12% Mourvedre, 12% Syrah, 11% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5% Grenache, 5% Touriga Nacional and 4% Alicante Bouschet. With exuberant flavors of black cherry, ripe blueberry, plum, strawberry, cherry cola, spice box, licorice, cigar box and smoky bacon, it is one of those wines that will put a smile on your face every time you open a bottle. Complex, long and incredibly adaptable, it is an all around can't-miss. Try it with smoked meats and your mind will be blown!

Liquid Swords Central Coast Pinot Noir 2018
Previously a private-label offering with Sushi-San, we rescued this wine in March 2020 when our distributor partners and restaurant brethren faced difficulties. We love it, and you will too. Delicious and versatile.
89
Our Score
This tasty, well-priced Central Coast Pinot Noir is the product of a collaboration between our local distributor and his winemaker buddies Andrew Jones (Field Recordings, Wonderwall) and Curt Schalchlin (Sans Liege). These two are no strangers, working together on the many "Fableist" bottlings we've offered, but this collab is worthy of its nod to the Wu-Tang Clan. Sourced from prime vineyards in Edna Valley and Santa Maria Valley, this weighs at a gluggable 12.9% abv, but we were most impressed by its depth and intensity. Having more serious focus than most Central Coast Pinot in this range, you're more likely to liken it to a Pinot from Oregon's Willamette Valley, experiencing more structured, darker, spicier berry and plum fruit overlaying wet loam soil. Tasty, honest small-batch Cali Pinot at a great price.

Bodegas Muriel "Fincas de la Villa" Rioja Reserva 2015

Wine Spectator
(4/30/2020) "This generous red is rich and round, with ripe tannins and orange peel acidity. Cherry, dried currant, licorice, vanilla and spice flavors are ample yet focused. A balance of traditional and modern styles. Drink now through 2030."

(4/15/20) "Firm, with concentrated, savory details of loam and toasted herbs adding terrific bass notes to the dense and muscular body of cassis, wild blackberry and plum flavors. Black tea, pepper and spice details linger on the finish. Drink now through 2035. 4,300 cases imported."

Terredora di Paolo Irpinia Falanghina 2018

Our Score
(9/2019) This has become a bigtime Vin Chicago favorite over the past few years. The 2018 is light on its feet with tropical fruit flavors rounded out nicely with juicy pear and citrus notes and just-right acidity, all wrapped up in a creamy, mineral laden finish.

G. D. Vajra Langhe Rosso 2017
90
Our Score
(4/2019) With this 2017 Langhe Rosso, Vajra captures the beauty of Piedmont in a playful and energetic wine that is both fruity and complex. A field blend of Barbera, Nebbiolo, Dolcetto and a handful of other Piedmontese grapes, it sings of fresh cherries, strawberry and raspberry with beautiful red floral tones and an enticing underlying earthiness that presents the wine's "old world" origin. This outstanding light colored red should be served with a slight chill and enjoyed with pizza, light pasta dishes, hors d'oeuvres or all on its own.

(2/2020) A textbook Torrontes from some of the highest vineyards in the world! Salty melon and screaming floral flavors are rounded out with bright citrus notes and a stony, mineral-driven finish. Full of character. Our sample bottle was still showing well a full nine days after we opened it.

J. Mourat "Collection" (Owl) Val de Loire Rose 2019

Our Score
(5/2020) The 2019 "Owl" Rose from Loire master Jeremie Mourat is lovely. Blending Pinot Noir, Gamay and Cabernet Franc, this tasty and fresh pink gives flavors of taut red fruits, light floral tones, just ripe green herb and lifted mineral themes. Delicious.

Vinous, Ian D'Agata
(2/2020) "Deep red-ruby. Generous, nicely focused aromas and flavors of red fruit, tar, licorice and underbrush. Showcases marvelous acid-fruit-tannin balance, finishing long, smooth and breezy. A knockout wine and an exceptional buy for the money."

Domaine Lafage "Tessellae - Old Vines" Cotes du Roussillon Grenache/Syrah/Mourvedre 2017

Jeb Dunnuck
(4/3/2019) "The GSM of the estate, the 2017 Tessellae Old Vines checks in as 50% Grenache, 40% Syrah, and 10% Mourvedre brought up mostly in concrete. Blackberries, kirsch, spice, incense, dried flowers, and baking spice notes all flow to a full-bodied, gorgeously texture effort. It's another gem from this team."
