The best Quality-Price-Ratio (QPR) California Pinot Noir we’ve tasted in years! It’s from one of the Central Coast’s very first Pinot Noir vineyards, Mission Ranch in the Salinas Valley planted in 1961. Fifty-five... Read More
Pilsner style beer from Maryland. Aromas of citrus peel with some floral notes as well. On the palate a nice crisp flavor with lemon and spics notes. A nice refreshing beer for the summer.
Medium bodied, copper colored ale. Citrus and resinous hop aroma combined with spice from the rye makes for a unique take on a hoppy beer. The result is a well-balanced Rye Pale Ale.
New Zealand native Angela Osborne moved to California in 2006 with a simple dream: to make Grenache. Over the years, she's established herself as one of the few masters of crafting Grenache that's bursting with fruit but... Read More
A classic rich and buttery (but not too much!) Russian River Chardonnay with enough oak for spice. Big, ripe, aromas and flavors of yellow pear, apple, almond and more coat the palate nicely before cleaning up with a squirt of... Read More
As the winery writes, Andrew Murray has been singularly and nearly maniacally focused on crafting Syrah for 25 years. His Everyday (in French Syrah “Tous les Jours”) Syrah from Santa Ynez gives you a good idea of how... Read More
Made by Rob Mondavi,Jr (grandson of the Napa legend), this does an outstanding job of balancing Napa's richness with a fine minerality and structure. Plenty of blackcurrant and blackberry fruit, a touch of dried herb, a dash... Read More
Organic/Bio The most mind-blowing Pinot Gris from the slightly insane grazing-based grape grower Stephen Hagen. As Wine Enthusiast said of the 93 point Perpetua I last year, “It's complex and leesy, with pear and melon... Read More
Organic/BioLower ABV As a staff, we love the wines coming from Antiquum Farm and this wine is no exception! Stephen's Pinot Gris can range in colors all on the same vine and sometimes even the same berries. The resulting... Read More
Organic/Bio Named for Stephen’s skateboarding and sheepherding son, Juel represents this unique winery as a whole. In 2022, it’s one six-ton fermenter filled with fruit picked from all four corners of the vineyard... Read More
Organic/Bio There’s something joyfully incongruous about a bearded outdoors guy who wears flannel, farms his vineyard with horses, chickens, sheep, geese and (his own) children, and waxes on passionately about the quality... Read More

Organic/Bio The edges of Antiquum Farm’s “Big Field” vineyard are kind of the far edge of what Pinot Noir can do. The winemaking is simple enough – fully de-stemmed fruit, open top fermenters, a bit of... Read More
Rich and creamy Russian River Chardonnay with spiced pear fruit and juicy accents of fresh butter and cream. Hard to resist for fans of more full-bodied Chardonnay!
Jim Clendenen is sadly gone, but his legacy lives on at the winery that more or less put Santa Barbara on the wine map. This is fully ripe at 13.5 alcohol, shaped (but not overwhelmed) by malolactic fermentation and time in French... Read More
As always, a benchmark interpretation of Virginia's most prominent red wine grape made in a rich but balanced and highly drinkable style. The 92 point review of the 2020 gives you a great idea of what to expect: Charming aromas... Read More
As always, a benchmark in Virginia wine for both immediate enjoyment with food and many years in cellar to come. In 2020, a blend of Merlot 62%, Cabernet Franc 34%, Petit Verdot 4% with the Cab Franc giving extra lift.... Read More
Perhaps the benchmark interpretation of Virginia's most important white grape, the 2022 Viognier from Barboursville is ripe and aromatic and finishes dry and fresh. Suckling's 93 point rave for the 2020 still applies:... Read More
Lower ABV Absurdly delicious cool-climate, California, Syrah that delivers layers of savory complexity, whole cluster (50%) grip, and still has enough fruit to just drink sexy. Double 95 point reviews for the 2019 will be repreated... Read More
One of Washington’s oldest family-run wineries has a deft hand with Cabernet Sauvignon, including blending in 10% Merlot and 7% Syrah and getting lots of flavor at <14% alcohol. This is fun and party Cabernet, full of... Read More
A big snoot- and mouth-ful of crushed berries and cherries with some cocoa dust, a touch of acidic/tannic bite, and a “I dare you to stop drinking me” finish that keeps you coming back for more. Like an Italian Chianti... Read More
Organic/BioLower ABV Ridiculously delicious and our only complaint here is that we couldn't get all we wanted. Brilliant ripeness and fruit bound up in almost steely minearlity and finishing long, ripe, mineral and mouthwatering.... Read More
