Abbazia San Giorgio "Orange" Terre Siciliane Zibbibo 2018
Only a few cases available of this tiny production orange wine from the remote island of Pantelleria!
92
Our Score
(8/2019) Situated between Sicily and Tunisia lies Pantelleria, the largest volcanic satellite island of Italy. One of the dominant grape varieties grown on this tiny, remote island is Zibbibo. In the vineyards of Abbazia San Giorgio, the Zibbibo grape (aka Muscat of Alexandria) is left mostly untouched throughout the year. During harvest, the grapes are taken off the stems and gently pressed. Fermentation is carried out in stainless steel tanks, using only the indigenous yeasts present in the skins of the grapes. Right off the nose, the wine sings of ripe peach and apricot while the finish offers salinity, nuttiness and mild tannin derived from the six months aged in chestnut barrels. This dry orange wine will pair wonderfully with shellfish or grilled white meats with a chutney base.

(4/3/2019) "Pretty, vibrant notes of white peach, white flowers, and salty minerality all emerge from the 2018 Prestige Rose. Made in a crisp, elegant style, it stays balanced and layered on the palate, and is going to be an incredibly versatile rose to drink over the coming 6-12 months. The blend is 60% Grenache and 40% Cinsault brought up all in tank."

Abbazia San Giorgio "Lustro" Terre Siciliane Catarratto 2018
91
Our Score
(8/2019) Pantelleria is a small Mediterranean island that lies at the midway point between Sicily and Tunisia, where Abbazia San Giorgio is using ancient methods to produce incredible wines. The "Lustro" is made from Cataratto that is planted in volcanic soil in individual bushes that grow low to the ground to protect the fruit from heavy winds and scant rainfall. The vineyard is left largely untouched until harvest, after which the grapes are spontaneously fermented on the skins for a few days, resulting in a light-medium bodied amber wine that is superlatively refreshing. Intense aromas and flavors of snow pea, broccoli flower, wild spring water, and juicy young pineapple make this deliciously verdant and rare natural wine a wonderful beverage to accompany a picnic or to invoke a Proustian recollection of one.

Domaine Tempier Bandol Rose 2018
93
Vinous, Josh Raynolds
(8/2019) "Shimmering orange. Fresh pit fruit, red berry and floral qualities on the highly perfumed nose, along with suggestions of dusty minerals and orange zest. Juicy, focused and lithe on the palate, offering intense nectarine, red currant, strawberry and candied lavender flavors supported by a spine of juicy acidity. Shows outstanding clarity and mineral cut on a very long, sappy finish that strongly echoes the floral and pit fruit notes."

Rombauer Carneros Chardonnay 2018
The new vintage of this round, rich and unctuous Chardonnay has landed!
Winemaker's Notes
"Pale yellow with a green tinge to the hue. Aromas of yellow peach, mango with a slight citrus note intertwine seamlessly with vanilla spice. The palate is rich and round, with the mango and vanilla fight for the lime light, while the creamy texture, vanilla and slight butter combine seamlessly. The balanced acidity closes out the finish bringing the multiple components into balance."

Vinca Minor "Thorton-Clark Vineyard" Sonoma Valley Chardonnay 2018
91+
Our Score
(8/2019) Sourced from a single tiny, gravelly vineyard in Sonoma Valley, Vinca Minor has produced a beauty of a Chardonnay whose aromas of ripe lemon and lime are carried by a salty sea breeze out of the glass. Fermented with indigenous yeast and kept in neutral barrel for 6 months, the wine has heft and a leesy texture that's balanced by its fresh acidity and striking, limestone-like minerality. With only 62 cases produced, you can imagine how few made it to Chicago, so don't sleep on this awesome Chard!

Donkey & Goat "Lily's" Anderson Valley Pet Nat 2018
91
Our Score
(8/2019) Founded in 2004, Donkey & Goat is a producer of "natural wine" in California using organically and biodynamically farmed grapes to make wines in their cellars with minimal intervention. In 2018, they produced only 419 cases of their delicious "Lily's Pet Nat" and we were fortunate to get our hands on some. Sourced from a small vineyard in the Anderson Valley, this refreshing sparkler sings of tropical fruit, bright citrus notes and a touch of spice. The wine is very fresh, dry and well-balanced with a silky texture and a touch of sweetness on the long finish. Pefect for al fresco dining!

Domaine du Gros Nore Bandol Rose 2018
92
Vinous, Josh Raynolds
(8/2019) "Vivid orange-pink. Blood orange, nectarine and red currant qualities on the expressive, mineral-driven nose. Sappy and penetrating on the palate, offering intense red berry and citrus pith flavors that slowly flesh out as the wine opens up. Shows excellent clarity and breadth on the very long, floral-tinged finish, which leaves a juicy pit fruit note behind."

Donkey & Goat "GiGi Sans Soufre" El Dorado Syrah 2018
90
Our Score
(8/2019) Donkey & Goat has built a great bit of renown for non-interventionist, eminently quaffable wines, so it isn't surprising that they could produce a 100% Syrah that is both a great representation of the varietal and less than 12% ABV! Naturally fermented and placed in a mix of neutral and lightly used barrels for 7 months, bottled without the addition of sulfur, this medium-bodied Syrah is both deep and juicy with ample blackberry, plum and black cherry and notes of pepper and dried violets. Zingy and glou-glou but with enough structure and tannin to remind you that it's still Syrah!

Massican Napa Valley Sauvignon Blanc 2018

Wine Enthusiast
(9/1/2019) "For his own label, Larkmead winemaker Dan Petroski looks to northern Italy for inspiration, sourcing from Napa Valley vineyards he admires (ones with the warmest days and coolest nights) to produce this 100% varietal beauty. Robustly fruity and flinty, it shows apricot, lemongrass, wet stone and wraparound acidity that buzzes in freshness."
