Cabernet Sauvignon
FULL-BODIED, DARK FRUIT, HERBAL SMOOTH TANNIN, EARTH, USED OAK
For those who tread on the bolder side of the vine, look no further. Charred sweet wood, dark fruit preserves, and plumes of black tea mingle together on the bouquet. Welcomed crisp acidity on the palate cuts through layered ripe black fruit and vanilla spice. While the profile is balanced, the finish is extended like daylight in summer.

The lush black fruit and sturdy tannins expected of a warmer-climate Cabernet are balanced by brighter fruit, sharp acidity, and a kiss of minerality. Stunning even now, we expect its allure and complexity to skyrocket in the next 7-10 years.

MED-BODIED, STRAWBERRY, RASPBERRY, BLACK PEPPER, MINERAL, NEUTRAL OAK
We were somewhat surprised to learn that Isabelle and Denis Pommier’s organically farmed 16 hectare estate in Chablis (est. 1990) near the village of Poinchy is one of the very few in the region to hand-harvest a significant portion of their production! Although most known for their distinctly mineral and terroir-driven Chablis, they also make a small amount of Bourgogne Rouge, such as the beautiful and energetic “Grain de Survie,’ which is equal parts fruit, floral, and earth.

Karim Vionnet (technically a négociant, he oversees several organically-framed plots around Beaujolais) is THE master of Gamay Made In the Carbonic Way. ‘Grabuge!’ (which translates to “mayhem”) is his insanely fun and drinkable take on dessert wine: a low-abv (8%!), demi-sec sparkler bursting with flavor, sweetness and bubbles. It’s best (and easily) enjoyed in one sitting, so make sure to save some room.

A very light and refreshing style of pinot from winemaker Michael Brajkovich, who was New Zealand’s first Master of Wine (MW). Fresh, light, and dry, with a vibrant edge and nice hint of chalky tannins — the palate is lightweight yet fruity with a lick of oak spice and angular acidity.

Fresh, fruity, and fragrant. Made in the ‘glou-glou’ style (French for ‘glug glug’), this easy drinking quaffer delivers on many levels. Carbonic maceration gives it a slight Coca-Cola funkiness, a calling-card for natural reds. Dark red and blue fruits shine with underlying acidity. Chill it and enjoy!
