Gives up gloriously intense notes of baked cherries, stewed plums and blueberry compote with touches of underbrush, tilled soil, black tea, tobacco and rose hips. Full-bodied, rich and decadently fruited in the mouth, it has a firm, grainy frame and a lively backbone, finishing very long and incredibly layered.

Beautifully balanced Burgundy from a rising star in the region. We recommend decanting for about an hour before serving to bring out the bright fruit qualities. Impeccably balanced and delightful, this is a classic through and through.

The wine is dominated by the Syrah, which gives the wine its black fruit character. However, the Grenache comes
through with hints of red cherry and black pepper notes. Finally, ripe soft tannins round out the wine’s finish. This
is a bold, but balanced red, ideally suited to grilling.

The estate wine of Jean-Luc Baldès is often overshadowed by the limited production wines. In itself, though, it is a firm, solid, well balanced wine, rich and expressing the minerality of Malbec in Cahors. This vintage should be aged, drink from 2016.

Familial aromas of cold roasted lamb, dark olive and pulpy tomato attest to regional and varietal parentage. Oak? Just. An olive savoriness sitting over a powdery coffee-ground base are the first two flavor/textural descriptors that register. Then, blackcurrant, mulberry, boysenberry fruits complemented by a tomato puree sweetness.

A unique take on the classic grape, Cabernet Franc. Much lighter in style than you would typically see but that retains the acidity on the palate.
The grapes were brought in and placed whole cluster in 5-ton fermenters. Foot stomped in the morning and pumped over in the evening. We gently pressed into neutral French oak barrels and aged for 5 months

Briary varietal, layered with flavors of blackberry, bright red cherry, pomegranate, violets, balanced with a fleshy center and hints of coffee and bright currants. Old Vine complexity with first growth quality.

This Chardonnay has aromas of lime and kiwi fruit with flavors of peach, pear and apple on the palate. This fresh and crisp Chardonnay is an ideal accompaniment to a variety of foods.

5 year old grape vines are grown in Metamorphic rock. Grapes are slowly & gently crushed by pneumatic press then juice is transferred underground into glass-lined cuves where natural fermentation occurs w/ indigenous yeasts. Age on the lees for 8-10 months, & stirred regularly. Wine is ever racked/ filtered. Smooth yet substantial and outstanding for its everyday price.

Pale straw-green. Knockout nose combines white peach, green apple, grapefruit, minerals, honey, flint and caraway seed. Very fresh, minerally and pure, with firm, penetrating flavors of citrus peel, grapefruit, peach and gunflint. Finishes bright and fresh, with brisk notes of dusty stone and nectarine. Outstanding entry level Verdicchio.

Lushly ripe pear and butter flavors are backed by vibrant, lemony acidity in this wine. It has good depth, medium body and a creamy texture, but stays balanced and fresh on the palate, leading to a lingering finish. Another outstanding vintage for a classic California wine.

This small batch Valpolicella is made primarily from Corvina and Rondinella grapes. This artisan producer grows, produces and bottles all their wines on their estate in the heart of the Valpolicella classico. Deep ruby red color with fresh perfume of berries and cherries.

This wine is smooth and supple, attractively fruity and well-balanced, making it easy to sip and savor. It shows black-cherry and red-cherry aromas followed by tasty cherry and berry flavors that are lightly accented by baking spices.
