Castell d'Age "Anne Marie" Brut Nature Reserva Cava NV
89
Our Score
(5/2020) This bright, bone-dry Cava comes from an estate led by winemaker Olga Betrian. Long a pioneer in organic farming in Penedes, she has recently gone even further, gaining Demeter biodynamic certification. Somehow, we are still able offer the same outstanding price! Composed of 40% Xarel-lo, 40% Macabeu and 20% Parellada, it is an outstanding bubbly to pair with a wide range of food. This latest disgorgement offers a nice richness on the palate which is highlighted by notes of waxy yellow apple fruit, biscuit, dried herb, Spanish broom, Marcona almond and strawberry tops. This has been enjoyed by Vin Chicago team members with takeout sushi many times over the years, and we see that in your future as well.

Domaine Meyer-Fonne "Gentil" Vin d'Alsace 2018
90
Our Score
(7/2020) Felix Meyer has bottled a wonderfully delicious "Gentil" with the 2018 vintage. Presented in a slightly off-dry style, this Kermit Lynch import is a viscously enticing blend of 50% Riesling, 25% Muscat, 20% Pinot Blanc and 5% combined Sylvaner and Pinot Gris. Exotically floral on the nose with an array of citrus, orchard and tropical fruit flavors. The texture is pure velvet, enhanced with a crisp, tense, balancing spine. Perfect with pan-Asian cuisine or grilled summer poultry, fish or vegetable dishes. Yummmm!

Zlatan Otok White Cuvee 2018
90
Our Score
(5/2020) Bracing and yummy, this distinctive white hails from the Croatian Island of Hvar, a demarcated wine zone. This dry white blends equal parts Bogdanusa, Marastina, Prc and Posip (easy for you to say!). Prickly on the palate, this wine truly tastes like a white blend, meaning it reveals several modalities, each adding to the overall experience. If given enough oxygen, this young wine gives salty citrus and orchard fruits, with searing minerality lifting the palate and finish. Super fun to drink new wines like this - try with spicy Thai food!

Can Feixes "Blanc Seleccio" Penedes 2019
90
Our Score
(5/2020) We absolutely love this wine! We've been buying this distinctive cuvee in the tall green bottles from Can Feixes for over 20 years, and it is as delicious as ever. Made from a certified organically grown blend of Parellada (locally, Montonec), Macabeo, Chardonnay and Malvasía de Sitges, this crisp, dry white is citrusy and completely refreshing, with a wonderful salty minerality at its core. This 12% ABV wine has a very lively palate and an impressively rich texture. Excellent as an apertif, and will perform with great versatility at the table.

Celler Cal Pla "Mas d'en Compte" Priorat Blanco 2015
Another Crazy Low Sale Price on a Serious White from Priorat, Spain!
91
Wine Advocate
(10/28/2016) "I later tasted the white 2015 Mas d'en Compte, a blend of Garnacha Blanca with 20% Pansal (the local name given to Xarello) and 20% Picapoll Blanc from the village of Porrera from a warm vintage. It fermented in oak barrels with selected yeasts after a one-day cold soak and then matured in a combination of new and second use 225-, 300- and 500-liter oak barrels (70% French and the rest Hungarian) for some eight months, the first month with batonnage. What I tasted was a custom cuvee for Eric Solomon, the American importer, and it's not oaky, oxidized or heavy; this is a new blend. There are notes of flowers, pollen, white pear and a touch of honey, a little exotic. The palate shows a fine-grained texture and very good acidity. Drink Date: 2016 - 2020"

J. Mourat "Collection" Val de Loire Blanc 2018
90
Our Score
(5/2020) The latest installment of the "Owl" white is delicious yet again. Talented vigneron Jeremie Mourat skillfully blends organically farmed Chardonnay and Chenin Blanc sourced from vineyards in and around his winery in the Vendee department on the Western Loire Valley. Crisp, with citrus and orchard notes, high acidity, a creamy mouthfeel and a long finish, this bone dry white is super yummy and in 2018, stands out as one of the better sub-$15 whites in our stores!

Ixsir "Altitudes" Lebanon White Blend 2018
89
Our Score
(3/2020) Maintaining some of the northern hemisphere's highest altitude vineyards, at up to 1800 meters, this unusual white blend is crafted in the Batroun Hills of Lebanon. A blend of 40% Obaideh, 40% Muscat and 20% Viognier, this wine's personality is perhaps best described as a mash-up of Greek Moscofilero and Argentine Torrontes. There is a significant floral charateristic, with salty citrus-tinged peach and a touch of marzipan. The palate maintains good acidity, fitting into the "smells sweet, drinks dry" category that we love so much. A tremendous value, this is an excitingly novel and exotic wine!

(8/2/2018) "Aromas of ripe apples and nectarines here. The palate has tart and tangy, juicy fruit with punchy acidity. Really delivers in a refreshing, drink-now style."
