2016 Saint-Laurent Sancerre Les Varennes du Clos Rouge | 24.99 | Loire Valley, France | 100% Pinot Noir | ![]() | A vibrant, absolutely immaculate Pinot Noir, this red Sancerre is focused on bright cherry fruit, rose petals, and hints of minerals and earth. For the Varennes du Clos rouge, the parcels come from warmer districts of Sancerre, but still with marginal sites: shallow topsoil over deep limestone/schist beds. | |
2015 Cos Cerasuolo | 39.99 | Sicily | Nero d'Avola & Frappato | ![]() | Herbal cherry and pomegranate aromas, discreet fine tannins and a slap of fruity acidity make this Nero d’Avola/Frappato blend a great option for chilled summer drinking.

2015 Mount Eden Vineyards Estate Pinot Noir | Santa Cruz Mountains, California | 100% Pinot Noir | ![]() ![]() | From one of the oldest, most iconic estates in the U.S. From a low-yielding, 7 acre parcel of the estate vineyard, this glorious wine represents more than 100 years of commitment to Pinot Noir in the Santa Cruz Mountains. Vibrant, medium- bodied, and Burgundian in style, the wine can be cellared or enjoyed now. | ||
2016 Texier Côtes-du-Rhone "Brezeme" | 31.99 | Rhône Valley, France | 100% Syrah | ![]() | Grown entirely from Syrah, this red wine comes from one of the finest sites in the Rhône Valley. Organically managed, traditionally vinified, the wine from this vineyard more resembles Hermitage than any Côtes-du-Rhône. Firm, deep, and endlessly complex, this is Syrah at its glorious best. | |
Educated Guess North Coast Cabernet | 75% Lake County, 15% Oakville, Napa 10% Clarksville | 90% Cabernet 10% Petite Sirah | ![]() | aromas of dark berries, plums, and a hint of cracked peppercorn.

Jolie Laide Pinot Gris | 31.99 | Glen Oaks Vineyard | 100% Pinot Gris | ![]() ![]() | Picked early to preserve acidity and crushed by foot for a 3 day whole cluster cold soak which adds phenolic texture while lending a beautiful rosé Champagne-like color. All wild ferment in a combination of stainless and neutral oak then aged all in neutral barrique. Wildly perfumed of charentias melon, stone fruit, bergamot and kaffir lime leaf. This is not your grandma’s Pinot Grigio…. | |
2016 Educated Guess North Coast | 21.99 | North Coast, California | 100% Cabernet Sauvignon | ![]() | This wine shows good concentration in color, flavor and texture. It is deep and dark, with ripe, jammy tones of blackberry and black cherry. Significant baking-spice elements add complexity, while fine-grained tannins add a thick texture. | |
Jolie Laide Gamay | 29.99 | El Dorado Gamay Barsotti Vineyard | ![]() ![]() | Insanely good. Jolie Laide is a student of Pax, CA's greatest winemaker. These wines are truly beautiful, clean, and above all interesting. A few people source Gamay from Barsotti, but Jolie Laide is the only one skipping the chemicals. If you like natural wine, interesting wine, or gamay in general this is a MUST BUY. - Mason | ||
Mont Paral Cava Vintage 2022 | 17.99 | Cava, Spain | 40% Xarello, 35% Macabeu, 20% Parellada, 5% Garnatxa | ![]() ![]() | A nice blend of the 3 grapes of Cava with 5% of Garnatxa Tinta which will give a beautiful pink color and add complexity to the wine. | |
2015 Sandrofay Costa Bassa | 29.99 | Lombardy, Italy | 100% Nebbiolo DOCG | In this version of nebbiolo, the wine takes its name by the territory of the province. The “costa bassa” (low coast) starts from the lower part of the valley to reach about 450 meters on the sea level. Here the climatic conditions make the skins of the grapes thinner, the result is great acid and soft tannins with bright red fruits. | ||
Bedrock Wine Co | 59.99 | Griffin's Lair Syrah | ![]() ![]() | Remarkably sculpted for such a big wine, the Griffin's Lair possesses remarkable depth and intensity from start to finish. Dark red cherry, plum, rose petal and violets are given an extra kick of aromatic lift from the 60% whole clusters. The flavors are so vivid and pure. Still, readers should plan on giving the 2014 at least a few years in bottle. | ||
BALISTRERI VINEYARDS | 36.99 | Pesci Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon | ![]() | My grandfather made this wine in the same way he learned from his grandfather. No sulfites, no chemicals, no filtering. It's completely natural and this very powerful and rustic. Notes of black olive, dark fruit, and green peppercorn spice. This is a natural wine yes, but not one for the faint of heart. - Mason Balistreri, Joy Team | ||
Giacomo Fenocchio Barolo | 44.99 | ![]() ![]() | Damn, this is good for the money. Extremely fresh and vibrant with singing aromatics and balanced structure. Red berry, crushed mint, new leather and underbrush aromas are front and center. Savory and juicy, the taut vibrant palate doles out succulent raspberry, tart red cherry and star anise alongside youthfully tense, polished tannins. | |||
Mount Eden Vineyards Pinot Noir | 74.99 | Santa Cruz Mountains | ![]() ![]() ![]() | Brilliantly fresh and snappy black raspberry aromas lead into a savory streak of mulberry-laced pork fat, hickory and tobacco smoke, with a hint of crushed slate on this wine's fascinating and shape-shifting nose. Peppery spice grips the palate immediately, then splashes fresh red plum and pomegranate flavors around, finishing on white pepper, cracked nutmeg and unrelenting tension. | ||
Domaine Leflaive Puligny Montrachet | 349.99 | 1er Cru Les Pucelles | ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | Quite a complex bouquet: minerals and gun flint at first, underneath hints of almond and honeysuckle lending more richness than the Puligny Les Combettes or the Folatières. There is just a slight reduction here, albeit in a positive sense, not masking any terroir. The palate is fresh and spicy on the entry, stem ginger and lemongrass driving this Pucelles along, flamboyant as you might expect from a warmer growing season. | ||
Michel Colin-Deleger et Fils | 549.99 | Chevalier-Montrachet Grand Cru | Michel Colin (nephew of the great Georges Deléger) is semi retired and only makes three wines. Lucky for us, we were able to find a few bottles of his Grand Cru wine. This is serious stuff from a true master. Only a handful ever come to the USA, let alone present themselves to be sold retail. Not cheap, but also priceless. - Mason B, Joy Team | |||
Di Giovanna Vasca Grillo | 39.99 | Sicily, Italy | 100% Grillo | ![]() | This unique example of the native Sicilian Grillo is surprisingly concentrated and powerful. The native grape is very prolific and can be uninteresting and watery without attentive vineyard management. It shows the typical characteristics of Grillo; aromatic with tropical fruit notes, melon and almond, fresh with a savory finish. | |
Di Giovanna Vasca Diciotto Nero d'Avola | 38.99 | Sicily, Italy | 100% Nero d'Avola | ![]() | Notes of chocolate covered cherries and plums followed by a hint of toast and spice. The wine has a silky and pleasant texture while packing a lengthy and powerful punch! | |
2017 Mesquida Mora Sincronia Negre | 25.99 | Mallorca, Spain | 41% Cab Sauvignon, 28% Merlot, 22% Callet 6% Mantonegro, 3% Syrah | ![]() ![]() | After a hand harvest, separate fermentations (all in stainless), and assemblage into 2nd and 3rd use American and French oak barrels for 6 months, the wine is bottled with freshness as well as some power. Rich dark fruits and spice show brightly in this red, with ample tannins and very balanced acidity. A long and graceful finish follows the robust mouth-feel. | |
Domaine Lafage Lieu Dit Narassa | 24.99 | Côtes du Roussillon | Grenache and Syrah | ![]() ![]() ![]() | Insane value from true Grenache master, Lafage. This has the perfect balance of both body and oak. Further, it has an aged quality and softness that is rare for such a luscious and powerful wine. La Narassa is sourced from the famed black schist soils of the Agly valley in the northern Roussillon near the village of Maury. It is made in a semi-ripasso style by harvesting late. | |
