2022 Cedrick Bardin Pouilly Fume

Our best selling Pouilly Fume!

This wine screams seafood!

2022 Cedrick Bardin Pouilly Fume...$27.99
The shiny golden robe gives place to an elegant nose of ripe peach and apricot with a hint of white flower and soft cinnamon spice aromas. The limestone and flinty siliceous soil impart somewhat of a gun-flinty quality on the nose. On the palate, the attack is fresh and supple with great volume and complexity mid-palate.
The minerality in this Pouilly Fume pair nicely with shrimp and other creamy seafood or pasta dishes as well as with pesto crostini or herbed goat cheese appetizers. It also pairs well with baked ham or even a ham sandwich with mustard…preferably French;)

2021 Painted Wolf The Den Chenin Blanc

2021 Painted Wolf The Den Dry Chenin Blanc...$14.99

From South Africa
If you’re fond of that white wine style that sits somewhere between Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc, then this is a wine for you.  It is a great dry and refreshing white wine. We call it a “porch pounder”!

The den wines are social wines to be enjoyed with friends and family, named for the den, the heart of all African wild dog communities. Did you know that South Africa produces more Chenin Blanc than the rest of the world combined? It’s true – in fact more than 30% of all acres under vine in South Africa are planted to Chenin Blanc – primarily for their enormous brandy industry. Actually – South Africa grows more Chenin Blanc than the rest of the world combined!
Focus is on creating length and palate texture, with racy acidity.
Enjoy with grilled fish tacos, ceviche, fresh salads, goat cheese, fried calamari, Thai chicken curries or chicken satay with peanut sauce, a bucket of popcorn and a movie! Extremely versatile.

Painted Wolf Wines supports the conservation of the highly endangered painted wolf (African wild dog) and the protection of the diminishing wild spaces of Africa, through its donations to the EWT (www.ewt.org.za) and Tusk (www.tusk.org).

Cedrick Bardin Coteaux du Giennois

Great Loire Red!

Looking for something different, but delicious?

2021 Cedrick Bardin Coteaux du Giennois....$19.99
50% Pinot Noir and 50% Gamay
A little known appellation next to the classic vineyard of Sancerre
Intense nose. A lot of dark fruit on the nose such as black current with a hint of tobacco and spice. On the palate, the texture is very smooth, the tannins are soft and generous. Ripe red fruit flavors start expressing themselves towards the end with a touch of toasty notes

Best served slightly cool, this expressive wine suits many different dishes Asian style salads and bibimbap to pulled pork and roast beef, as well as nutty-cheeses and chocolate cake or brownies.

The Pinot and Gamay grapes do exceptionally well in the eastern part of the Loire region. Although they are usually produced in Burgundy and Beaujolais, the climate of the Loire is particularly well suited for this blend. The wine is made in a classic way with low fermentation temperatures in order to preserve the freshness of the fruit

The great whites of Joly

Very small crop in 2021 - much more limited than usual

The 2021 vintage is the smallest volume we’ve ever produced. Frost hit badly and by late April about 60% of the crops were lost. The cold weather finally subsided and flowering happened in late June, with good weather conditions and not much disease pressure. A quiet, hot, and dry summer. The berries matured slowly and gained a bit more volume through early September, with the harvest starting on September 27.  The positive side of a late vintage is that the botrytis appears at the end of September with the morning fog of the Loire. The small harvest was finished within 10 days but in very beautiful conditions. Fermentation went smoothly up to January and the wines stayed on the fine lees until final racking, filtration, and bottling at the end of June. The wine is very balanced and elegant.

Bozal Cuishe Single Maguey...$59.99

Rich tropical fruit on the palate that moves to sweet potato on the front followed by a dry smoky finish.One of the most physically distinct species of agave, the Cuishe, a subspecies of the Karwinskii Family of agave, grows vertically as a single stalk with its leaves spreading at the top. Due to its unusual structure, and the stalk containing the firmer piña material, the Cuishe can be difficult to harvest and to work with in general. This agave offers aromas full of tropical fruit with a dry piney and mineral finish.

Codigo Rosa / TWCP / Brett Hull Single Barrel Championship Rosa

Special Collector Edition!

Código 1530 Rosa begins with the purity of our Blanco, then rested for 1 month in an uncharred Napa Cabernet French White Oak barrel. The result is a refined spirit with a natural color as beautiful as its taste. Our Rosa has rested just long enough in our fine cabernet barrels to enrich the natural agave juice, yet not too long to prevent overpowering its delicate floral notes. (Sold out-for tasting only. Brett won’t give up any of his bottles)

Oro de Coyame Sotol Vibora...$43.99 / 750ml

Oro de Coyame Sotol Víbora – Aged in Red Oak Barrels for 4 Months with Rattlesnake Venom

Our Sotol Viper arises from the inhabitants of the old town of Paquimé, who used the poison of the rattlesnake as a healing element. To produce our sotol, it is not necessary to kill the snake but only to extract the poison. Its flavors are reminiscent of citrus and pine wood, rounded off by the sweetness of the sotol plant, with a touch of citrus peel and a complex aromatic background of rattlesnake venom.

Our friend Ammo has outdone himself once again, creating a superb new label to go with its new name. Sang Bleu is powerful and very fruit-forward, but still maintains a nice, mellow balance between acidity and atringency

Moon landing? C'mon. Let's talk about the REAL conspiracy here. Those magical creatures we all "know" and love are merely surveillance drones sent to spy on human kind. Sketchy to say the least.

Unicorns may not be real, but this hyper fresh IPA most definitely is. Big Foot sized additions Citra, Mosaic and Simcoe hops make you scratch your head and question everything you've thought to be true. Fresh citrus, sun ripened stone fruit and muddled berry notes take control in this one.

2020 Chateau Pineraie A&E Cahors

French Malbec!

2020 Chateau Pineraie A&E Cahors....$16.99
85% Malbec - 15% Merlot
As expected from the best terroirs of Cahors, the birthplace of the Malbec grape, the wine is made of a powerful elegance between vanilla and ripe fruit laced with violet floral aromas on the nose as well as peppery spice and roundness on the palate. Dark purple in color with flavors of blueberry, blackberry and cassis surrounded by a nice toasted spice that rounds out the wine. Nice tannins that provide a long finish. This wine pairs best with cassoulet, duck confit, braised game meat,, sausage, grilled venison or lamb chops as well as fattier fish like salmon and poultry with dark meat. In addition to these meat pairings, consider foods with richer sauces and more vibrant flavors.
A&E stands for Anne & Emmanuelle as the sisters had the idea of blending Malbec with Merlot in order to create an elegant wine full of fruit and spices. The grapes are fermented separately before blending and bottling. This is a great representation of what the best grapes from the Southwest of France can do.
