Pillars of Hercules by Dunnigan Estate
Red Blend: Petit Sirah / Petit Verdot / Teroldego 2021
Dunnigan Hills, Yolo County, California
Strong, muscular, massive. Words that define Hercules when he planted two pillars astride the parting of the Strait of Gibraltar opening the old world to the new. When Matchbook set out to create a bold wine, they chose to base their Pillars on the pillars of flavor from the Dunnigan Hills: Petite Sirah, Petit Verdot and Teroldego. This is a chewy, dense, full-bodied blend for those seeking a big red wine.

Lagrimas Bhilar
Rioja - Graciano 2021
Rioja, Spain
Fans of our Top 12 may remember this same vintage wine from last Holiday season - the wine has evolved incredibly since then. Graciano, known for its late ripening and temperamental nature, is seldom bottled as a single varietal, making this wine a rare and appealing gem. Distinctive notes of blueberry, cardamom, licorice root, violets, and eucalyptus. On the palate, the red fruit takes center stage, complemented by a touch of spice.

Chakana
Malbec 2020
Mendoza, Argentina
93 Vinous: The 2020 Malbec Chakana Estate Selection (from Paraje Altamira & Gualtallary, Uco Valley) was a third aged in used barrels and a third in foudres. A mild purple hue. The nose presents gentle notes of fresh plum, violets and hints of thyme over a pleasant bed of oak. Indulgent with slightly reactive tannins, the flow is juicy and fairly compact.

Chateau Bonnet
Merlot / Cabernet Sauvignon 2018
Bordeaux, Franc
Deep ruby-red color scattered with purple highlights. The nose is very attractive and fruity, revealing a delicious array of fresh fruit notes (cherry), underpinned by subtle hints of spice. This beautiful 2018 Bonnet starts out straightforward on the palate, becoming very round, delicious and sweet. Fresh red fruit aromas (cherry) follow through to the palate.

Chateau d’Aqueria
Tavel Rose 2022
Tavel, France
Is there a more beautiful color in a wine glass? We adore this wine not just for its captivating hue but, more importantly, for its remarkable versatility in food pairings. Striking a perfect balance between red and rosé, this Grenache-based wine exudes more body and complexity than a typical rosé while maintaining a refreshing quality akin to a light-bodied red. It's our go-to choice at the holiday table.
50% Grenache, 25% Syrah, 15% Clairette, 10% Cinsault

Le Jade Chardonnay 2022
France
This chard offers a wonderful yellow color, complex nose of white flowers, green apples, mild tobacco, and vanilla. Rich and full bodied mouthfeel, concentrated with a fresh fragrant finish. No malolactic fermentation. No barrel aging. The finish has a bit of weight but not a heavy thick or sweet finish like most cheap chardonnays. A wonderful and very polished white wine.
