Cloudline by Domaine Drouhin
Pinot Noir 2019
Willamette Valley, Oregon
Elegance and finesse, two words that describe the wines from Domaine Drouhin. The provenance of their wines was born in Beaune and the soul transfered to the West Coast. We love their value bottling called Cloudline. The color is a bright garnet that deepens at its core, with a medium body, bright acidity, and excellent balance. Aromatics include red cherries, cranberry, a touch of vanilla, and various dark fruits. Tannins are soft, and the finish is pleasing and complete.

Cabernet Sauvignon 2019
Napa Valley
Upon first tasting this wine we had to do a double take at the price sheet. How could a wine of this quality, from the coveted Napa Valley be this cheap...and good! Dark fruit with all the markers of the famous terroir: Eucalyptus, cocao and a deep richness and silky texture. The silky tannins blend harmoniously with a dense backbone.

Juggernaut
Cabernet Sauvignon 2019
North Coast, California
This big and bold Cab can't be beat. We love the presentation and the wine so much, that it has returned for another Top 12. Ripe dark blackberry, raspberry liqueur, cocoa powder and silky tannins. Great with any kind of powerful beef dish, especially braised short ribs.

Italian fruit bomb
Corte Fiore
Rosso Appassimento 2020
Abruzzo, Italy
Montepulciano grapes grown on the coastal vineyards of Abruzzo go through the Appassimento technique (not typical for this region or grape) This is an old, traditional Italian winemaking method from near Verona that involves partially drying grapes on the vine. This results in wines with greater concentration, body and texture, and allows winemakers to create more robust wines from grapes grown in cooler climates. This wine features aromas of wild cherry and red plum, followed by notes of juicy fruit, bright acidity and ripe tannins

$10 Off this beautiful Cab blend...
Loudenne
Medoc 2015
Bordeaux, France
Beautiful deep cherry red color. A nose of dark fruits (ripe blackcurrant and black cherry griotte) and spices with a touch of licorice and vanilla. The palate shows a very convincing start, broad and immediately textural, with a nice weight through the middle, with a good frame of rich and ripe tannins, fresh acidity and plenty of grip too. Beautiful long and persistent finish.
Blend: 53% Cabernet Sauvignon, 45% Merlot, 2% Cabernet Franc

Lupo Meraviglia
"Tre di Tre" Red Blend 2019
Puglia, Italy
A blend of native grapes from Southern Italy: Negroamaro, Aglianico and Primitivo. Intense dark inky color. On the nose the wine has scents of blue fruit and jam which merge with the sweet and spicy notes of wood. On the palate it shows a great structure and persistence with a pleasant tannic finish.

Famille Perrin
Rose Reserve 2020
Cotes du Rhone, France
Lush and vibrant, this rose is dry but not too dry. The aromas of strawberry and melon are pronounced but not overwhelming and are balanced by lovely but subtle floral aromas. At our price this wine is too good to pass up.

Tres Ojos
Old Vines Garnacha 2018
Calatayud, Spain
Do you like brain pretzels? Drink a glass of this wine and tell us how we can sell it for this cheap? It doesn't make much sense how a wine made from fruit from vines over 30 years old, with this much complexity can be this cheap. After you drink that glass you will want a case...or two!

The Royal
Chenin Blanc 2021
Swartland, South Africa
After a few years we are bringing this one back on to our Top 12. We need to remind you fine folks of this fantastic value! Aromas of tropical fruit, passion fruit, and peach. Dry but not too tart on the finish. A great pair for spicy foods or just casual sipping.

La Fiera
Soave 2020

Dibon
Brut Cava
Spain
Tis the season when having a nice little bottle of bubbly on hand is essential. Having an old friend drop by? Going to a holiday party? Frying up some latkes? A cold and quality bottle of cava is the perfect accompaniment to all of those situations. This bottling from Spain has the complexity of some more expensive bottles from the USA or France but at a fraction of the price. The brut means its dry. Yes you can use it in Mimosas and other cocktails that call for sparkling wine like Champagne or Prosecco.
