Charles Bove Crémant de Loire Brut NV

$ 19.00 USD

For over a century, Charles Bove has been a major player in Vouvray and the larger Touraine region, being one of the main purchasers of fruit in the appellation. Though they don’t own or farm any vines, they are master winemakers and their Crémant is a textbook example of the style. Their cellar is housed in a tuffeau quarry that stretches for an astonishing 9 miles over three levels providing ample space in an ideal aging environment. The majority of this classic sparkler is Chenin Blanc with a small addition of Chardonnay added for richness.

Zillinger ‘Neuland’ Grüner Veltliner 2023

$ 27.00 USD

The Zillinger family have deep roots as adept farmers in Weinviertal and have used this generational knowledge to carve out tiny vineyard parcels all over this largely agricultural area. In some cases, literally two or three rows of vines will be planted following the curve of a limestone band crisscrossing a wheat field. Zillinger only works with Grüner, precisely tuning their vineyards using biodynamic techniques to deliver the best of what the land has to offer. Weinviertal may not be super familiar, but the name Schödl may ring a bell (whose wines we adore) and the two are located about 6 minutes away from one another. ‘Neuland’ is from Zillinger’s youngest vines and is the spiciest and most spritely of their wines.

Château de Roquefort ‘Corail’ Rosé 2024

$ 21.00 USD

Situated just over a craggy limestone ridge from Bandol, Château de Roquefort is a breathtakingly stunning domaine hemmed in on all sides by monumental limestone massifs. Though the actual Château was initially built in 1734, its winemaking operations had all but disappeared until Raimond de Villeneuve showed up in 1995. Raimond immediately saw the potential of the estate and purchased the highest quality cuttings he could find and has farmed everything organically and biodynamically since. The blend of ‘Corail’ changes from vintage to vintage but the ‘24 is made of 29% Syrah, 18% Grenache, 18% Carignan, 17% Cinsault, 7% Vermentino, 6% Mourvèdre, and 5% Clairette. Quintessential Provence.

Kofolk Intra! The Wild Red 2021

$ 25.00 USD

The word Kolfolk has it‘s origins in a regional Burgenland dialect and describes a person that is critical to common thoughts – an unconventional thinker.Stefan Wellanschitz is Kofolk, a side project he started while also working at his family’s winery, making wines more experimental, aka unconventional than they do at Weingut Wellanschitz. Peppery and bright, this wine is complex but very easy drinking, made via partial carbonic fermentation, like a Blaufränkisch disguised as a Beaujolais. While most Austrian reds are best cool, not cold, this wine shows nicely with a chill.

Tenuta Est Stara Kupaza 2022

$ 26.00 USD

We have the good fortune to try a lot of wine here at the shop and this was the first wine we’ve stumbled upon from Serbia- and it is setting the bar high. Tenuta Est’s founder Marko Obradovic’s story deserves a novel, but suffice it to say this wildly talented young winemaker is at the forefront of rekindling the winegrowing tradition in far Eastern Serbia, one of the oldest wine producing areas in the world. When Marko first purchased his vineyards, they were already planted with a field blend of 15 different varietals- both native and international- most of which make it into ‘Stara Kupaza’. As far as he knows the cépage is at minimum Prokupac, Blaufrankisch, Zacinjak, Vranac, Crna tamjanika, Pinot Noir, Cabernet Franc, Cabernet sauvignon, Merlot, Chardonnay and Riesling. Now say that five times fast.

Diego Conterno Dolcetto d’Alba 2023

$ 30.00 USD

Diego Conterno has been crafting elegant wines in the southern reaches of the Barolo zone in Monforte d’Alba since the beginning of this century. Prior to that, Diego spent two decades at Conterno-Fantino where he worked alongside his cousins, and prior to that, worked and learned under the legendary Piedmont winemaker Beppe Colla of Prunotto. Diego and his son Stefano still make Barolo and while we’d love to pour that by the glass, his Dolcetto is just a smidge more budget friendly. Dolcetto means “little sweet one”, but fear not, most Dolcettoes from Piedmont are dry and earthy. Diego ages this wine in a mix of concrete and stainless which keeps freshness mellows out this grape’s tannins, aiming to make a wine best enjoyed young- i.e. right now.
