Provenance
2016 Napa Valley
Merlot
90 Wine Advocate
$24 elsewhere
A very special price due to the current circumstances. Don't miss one of the best Napa Valley Merlot producers at an amazing price! Full-bodied with dark berry, plum, baking spice and hints of earthy notes on the finish.
From Wine Advocate: Made up of 97% Merlot, 2% Cabernet Sauvignon and 1% Malbec aged for 21 months in 24% new oak (88% French and 12% Hungarian) the medium to deep garnet-purple colored 2016 Merlot opens with bags of plums, baked cherries and mulberries-inspired scents with touches of incense, Chinese five spice and dusty soil. Full-bodied with a chewy frame and compelling freshness, it finishes on an earthy note. |

Ronchi
2016
Barbaresco
This is one incredibly beautiful Barbaresco. This wine is rarely available to retail as it normally goes to the TOP Iltalian restaurants in California. So good, it was awarded Cru status. For more than four generations, the Rocca family has lived surrounded by the vines of the ‘Ronchi’ cru in Barbaresco. The vineyards are part of the family; winemaker Giancarlo Rocca can walk from his breakfast table to his Nebbiolo vines in less than a minute. Needless to say all work is performed by hand, and as sustainably as possible.
No herbicides or pesticides are used. Gorgeous!

Quinta do Crasto
2017 Douro
D.O.C
CRASTO
Tinto
90 Wine Advocate
Dark berry, mineral and earthy notes with hints of toasted oak on the long, balanced finish. Superb Portuguese value! This has been on a roll lately at the value end of Crasto's lineup. This is another big winner! In this big vintage, this shows ripe and intensely flavorful fruit. It has some power, but it is approachable on the young side. It seems fresh, but I'm not sure freshness is the biggest asset here

Ground Effect
2018 Santa Barbara
Cabernet Sauvignon
Incredible Cabernet Sauvignon value!
Ripe and juicy with black and blue fruits that lead into a dark chocolate finish. The wine that is catching fire in our store is this incredible value from Santa Barbara. We don't see many Cabernet Sauvignon's from this appellation but this wine stood out as an an amazing value.

Chamisal
2017 Monterey
Chardonnay
91 Wine Advocate
$20 Elsewhere
One-time offer at this price and it is very limited!
Medium-bodied and rounded with a spicy, fresh-fruit profile lifted by mouth-watering acidity and it finishes long and toasty.
From Wine Advocate: The 2017 Chardonnay Monterey County opens with notes of gunflint and toast over baked apples, yellow pears, popcorn and a tropical tinge. The palate is medium-bodied and rounded with an uber spicy, fresh fruit profile lifted by mouthwatering acidity, and it finishes long and toasty.
This has an appealing yin-yang of savory and bright citrus character. |

Malibu Rocky Oaks
2017 California
Cabernet Sauvignon/Syrah
Yes, Malibu is a legitimate wine appellation in California. Not all of this wine's grapes came from this incredible estate but enough to show that the Malibu appleation can produce fantatsic wines. This Cabernet has dark fruit aromas of cherry and blueberry pie. Full-bodied and balanced on the palate with a long earthy and toasty finish.
We have their Cabernet Franc and Chardonnay in store and on our website as well. Seek them out as they are truly delicious, or just click here. |

Red Blend
94 Wine Spectator
Mostly Monastrell and Cabenet Sauvignon.
For those of you who love the CLIO, don't miss this full-bodied, rich and creamy red!
From Wine Spectator: This brawny red shows a savory character, with loamy earth, black tea and tobacco notes framing a rich core of currant and blackberry flavors. The muscular tannins are balanced by juicy acidity. Dense, balanced and expressive. Monastrell, Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah.

Chateau Fourcas Dupre
2016 Listrac-Medoc
Bordeaux
89 Wine Advocate
Packed with blackberry, raspberry and light cassis aromas. Additionally plenty of fresh energetic black fruit. A great value!
From Wine Advocate: The 2016 Fourcas-Dupres has a very elegant bouquet without shortchanging on fruit. The aromatics here are packed with blackberry, raspberry and light cassis aromas, the oak nicely integrated and with a subtle estuarine note emerging with time. The palate is medium-bodied with crisp, grainy tannin. There is plenty of fresh, energetic black fruit here laced with black olive and a pinch of brine, fanning out towards the satisfying, long finish. ~Limited~
