Taste:




2021 Guinta New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc...$15.99
New Zealand
Biodynamic, Certified Organic, Vegan

"Intensely aromatic and instantly appealing with passionfruit, kaffir lime, nectarine and Granny Smith apple characters, it’s succulent and flavoursome in the mouth delivering terrific fruit power andpersistency. Vibrant and super tasty
Rated 93/100 Sam Kim, Wine Orbit



2019 Comte de Langeron Bouzeron Aligote...$24.99
Bouzeron is one of the five appellations in the Cote de Chalonnaise and the closest one to the Côte-d’Or (Bouzeron is a close neighbor of Rully and Chassagne-Montrachet). It was officially recognized in 1997 as a full-fledged Burgundian appellation village. The only appellation where the grape Aligote is the star. Bouzeron only produces white wines and the only grape is Aligote. Aligoté grape is a cross of Pinot Noir and Gouais (that no longer exists today). Comte de Langeron Aligote has aromas of fresh peaches, white flowers, and green apples. On the palate, it is well balanced and creamy, but the wine is very pure with great focus and nice streak of acidity running through it. Great crisp White Burgundy with a round mouthfeel! Great bottle!



2019 Stratum Waipara Valley Pinot Noir...$13.99
A brilliant ruby red color leads to a nose that is loaded with assorted, lifted red fruit, raspberry, cherry and plum with an engaging spicy top note and a touch of earthy, stemminess that adds nuance and intrigue. Medium bodied and backed with sleek tannins that gives this a round, silky textural feel. the core of red fruit flavors are vibrant and fresh with enough detail on the finish to keep you coming back for more. Polished and loaded with vibrancy and freshness this should show well over the next 3 plus years quite easily.
Great with Salmon, pork, duck, mushroom dishes



2018 Finca Sobreno Toro Crianza....$19.99
100% Tinta de Toro (Tempranillo)
"Aged in American oak for just over eight months, notes of balsamic, sweet tobacco, juicy plum, and baking spices make for a compelling Tinta de Toro (Tempranillo). The wine’s elegance shows through a burst of pomegranate and white pepper with chalky tannins backing up the finish."
Rated 92/100 The Tasting Panel
