One of our best sellers from last year is back!

2023 Richemar French Chardonnay...$12.99
In the heart of the Languedoc, bordering the Thau Basin and the Mediterranean Sea, Les Caves Richemer started in 1937.  Mediterranean Chardonnays receive a lot of sun exposure allow them to fully ripen and express roundness making for a smooth texture. Very fruity on the nose, this is an easy every occasion wine that is bottled early in the year to preserve its freshness.  This wine’s flavors of pear and stone fruit pair well with chicken with olives, Bayonne ham and pâtés as well as with mild, creamy cheeses like Brie.
Early morning picking and cold temperature fermentation to preserve freshness. The lees are stirred post-fermentation to add volume to the wine and balance the fruit.

Great Sauvignon Blanc  - stunning deal
2021 Downes Family Sanctuary Peak Sauvignon Blanc...$9.99
Suggested retail $17
"Made with the help of Master of Wine Richard Kershaw, this is a serious, well structured Sauvignon Blanc that outperforms many of its peers. Blackcurrant leaf and elderflower flavors provide lots of crunch and focus, with some added structure from partial skin contact before fermentation. 2022-25"
Rated 91/100 Tim Atkin

2023 Domine des Nugues Beaujolais Villages Rose...$18.99
100% Gamay ROSE
Hand picked grapes. This rose is made with a press juice, which makes it quite winey and complex. Fermentation over about 20 days, extraction at the end of alcoholic fermentation, followed by malo-lactic fermentation and ageing on a fine lees.
Salmon color, pink with a beautiful brilliance, floral aromas and small fruits, on the palate a rather round wine.  Great with Appetizers, grilled fish, grilled meats, white meat…





This has been one of our top selling Bordeaux over the past few years
2021 vintage received a Gold Medal from the Prestigious Concours International de Lyon in France
2021 Chateau Fontana Bordeaux Rouge...$15.99
Blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Merlot

Fontana’s old-vine Merlot (almost 40 years old!) are thriving where others are struggling and exquisitely expressing their character, blended with Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc flesh out into a champion bottle with violet aromas and a rich palate ripe red and blueberries, spice, and earth. Deep and dark red color. On the nose, the Merlot brings nice small red berry flavors while the Cabernet Sauvignon offers a hint of spice and herbs. Slight toasted notes of the nose are confirmed on the palate with nice rounded tannins. This is a full bodied wine with plenty of freshness and a long finish.
Pair this with any red meat, nice steak wine!
This is a classic, well-made right bank style Bordeaux.
