A robust super-Tuscan blend of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc, all aged 12 months in a melange of oak casks. Bold aromas of ripe cherry, beef, herb, chocolate and herb lead to a dry, nicely structured, palate of... Read More

A delicious, fruit-forward, Cabernet with plenty of rich texture, a dash of chocolate, and fine tannins lifting a smoke, tobacco and black fruit finish. Excellent value.

Macedonia’s Xinomavro grape can be pretty firm and grippy, but here’s it’s tamed by time in new French oak. Big aromas and flavors of dark cherries, blackberries, orange peel and wild herbs flow beautifully across... Read More

Organic/Bio At once wonderfully fresh and deeply earthy, this 100% Temparnillo is full of ripe fruit and finishes with a savory, meaty, character with no obvious oak. A terrific cookout red!... Read More

An ENORMOUS amount of wine for the money here, in 100% Malbec grown carefully at high altitude and then made to let the grape and place shine through. Black-fruited on the nose and palate with fine complexity from notes of tobacco,... Read More

Lower ABV This is very high-end Gruner with depth and richness and intensity that lacks only the price of the most famous wines in Austria. From perfectly ripe grapes grown in the famous Wagram Ried Rosenberg vineyard, this is... Read More
