Chateau Potensac Medoc




2019 Chateau Potensac Medoc....$31.99
Bright, with crushed-stone and floral character on the nose. Medium body with a firm core, expanding through the palate. Vivid and bright. Lots of good energy. Crushed-stone and lightly chalky character at the end. Needs two or three years to come around
Rated 94/100 James Suckling
Purity, precision and energy here, fresh and juicy and full of life on the palate with creamy-edged ripe, red fruits. Lovely power, with a clear Pauillac-like tannic structure but mouthfeel that is silky and smooth. A fresh mineral finish leaves the palate nicely cooled. A top buy.
Rated 94/100 Decanter Magazine
Lots of black cherries, currants, ripe tobacco, and cedar notes emerge from the 2019 Château Potensac, a medium-bodied, concentrated, beautifully pure, elegant Médoc that's well worth seeking out. It's going to continue to drink nicely for 10-15 years.
Rated 92/100 Jeb Dunnuck
Always a dependable bottling, the 2019 Potensac opens in the glass with aromas of dark berries, cherries and pencil shavings. Medium to full-bodied, fleshy and nicely concentrated, with lively acids and powdery tannins, the vintage has made for an unusually polished Potensac that will offer a broad drinking window.

Amazing single vineyard Macon!!!
2022 Les Gentilhommes Macon Peronne....$26.99
100 % Chardonnay -- Single Vineyard from the heart of the Macon
This single-vineyard Chardonnay is produced in the village of Péronne, in the heart of the Maconnais region in Burgundy, from 40 year-old vines planted on the limestone based soils of the Mount Epin. A beautiful golden color with green reflections, delicate toasty notes and attractive aromas of citrus and ripe summer fruits combine with floral and honey nuances that are typical of the old vines. Fresh, ample and full-bodied on the palate, the wine is perfect by itself as an aperitif and delicious during the meal.

Great Value in White Burgundy!
2022 Tramier & Fils Macon Villages...$26.99
100% Chardonnay from Burgundy
Ripe fruit and flowery nose. On the palate, it begins with smooth yet sharp aromas of grapefruit and lemon followed by a rich texture giving place to hints of honey and white flowers. The finish is long thanks to good acidity levels
This wine pairs nicely with smoked salmon, mixed salads, sushis, poultry and veal in cream sauce, creamy risotto, and goat cheeses. Just south of the Burgundy region, the Chardonnay benefits from great exposure to sun throughout the growing season. Once the fermentation is over, the wine is aged in oak for a couple of months to add flavor and complexity.

2023 Comte de Langeron Coteaux Bourguignons Blanc...$25.99
  • 90% Chardonnay
  • 10% Aligote
A blend of Chardonnay and Aligoté of which most is matured in stainless steel. It has a great Burgundy nose with a touch of minerality that comes from the Aligote. Great flavors of tart apples and a steely acidity finishes off this great wine. Highly recommended and very limited production
Nice pale robe, the nose is discreet yet intense with hints of white flower and honey. The wine expresses minerality and length on the palate with a nice balance of acidity on the finish.
This wine is a free blend of the two main white varietals of Burgundy: Chardonnay and Aligoté. The berries are sourced from different parts of the Burgundy region characterized by a large variety of different soils. Both grapes are vinified separately and blended before bottling, which gives them more control on the typicity of this wine. This is a great aperitif wine but it also pairs well with pasta, cured meats, pork, chicken, rich fish like salmon and tuna as well as soft, mild cheeses.

2022 Damien Martin Saint Veran...$26.99
100% Estate Grown Chardonnay

Full malolactic and 6 months on the lees to add richness and complexity
Pure, clean orchard and tropical fruits, spice, crushed stone, and white flower notes all emerge from the 2022 Saint Véran, a medium-bodied, clean, incredibly classy, balanced Saint Véran that has good mid-palate density, integrated acidity, and outstanding length
Rated 91/100 Jeb Dunnuck

2022 Damien Martin Bourgogne Blanc...$19.99
Bright citrus, orange blossom, honeyed flowers, and a kiss of minerality all emerge from the 2022 Bourgogne Blanc, a clean, medium-bodied, vibrant, refreshingly crisp white revealing outstanding length as well as a touch of salinity on the finish. Drink bottles over the coming 3-5 years, if not longer.
Rated 90/100 Jeb Dunnuck

2022 Heritiers du Comte Lafon Macon Chardonnay Clos de la Crochette...$39.99
The 2022 Mâcon-Chardonnay Clos de la Crochette has a quite backward nose that needs more tension. The palate is well-balanced with fine acidity, much more expressive than the aromatics, with a peachy, seductive finish. Lovely. But the nose needs to step up a gear

The E.Traber Riesling shows a shiny lemon yellow with shimmering gold-green reflections in the glass. Aromas of lemon, grapefruit, apricot, peach and wet stone seduce our nose. The E.Traber Riesling fills the mouth with power and structure. Stone fruits paired with a lively acidity and gentle petroleum aromas conquer our palate. The mineral flint note gives the Riesling another detail of spice. The E.Traber Riesling promises a storage potential of 10 years, but is also wonderfully fresh, fruity and stimulating to drink now.

The E.Traber Gewürztraminer, Cave de Ribeauvillé shows a light lemon yellow with golden edges in the glass. Aromas of rose petals, white pepper, grapefruit, lemon zest and coriander fill our nose.

The typical Traminer aroma is also repeated on the palate with its quite feminine flower extracts.The long finish is sealed by the fresh and stimulating acidity, which is perfectly integrated and promises storage potential for up to 6 years.

2022 E. Traber Alsace Pinot Gris...$25.99
A fresh and pure Pinot Gris from Alsace all hand harvested. Mineral driven with limestone and has flavors of green apples and a lemon/lime accent. The wine has good acidity that is balanced out by the fruit and a touch of honey. Great wine for drinking now but will aged for years too.

2020 E. Traber Alsace Sylvaner...$19.99
Sylvaner is one of the lesser known grapes of Alsace, but a terrific grape. E. Traber's is surprisingly full bodied and fresh. It is bright with white flowers on the nose and flavors or pears, peaches and apricots. Finishes with a long mineral finish and crisp acidity making it a great food wine. Try it with grilled asparagus and a poached egg.

2020 E. Traber Alsace Pinot Noir...$24.99
Yes, red wine from Alsace
Intense spicy nose with dark berries and sour cherries. The palate is round and lush with flavors of cherry and a touch of cocoa. This is a medium bodied elegant Pinot Noir from Alsace that is perfect food wine. Very well made Pinot Noir! Most Alastian Pinot Noirs are made from high yielding grape vines and produce light simple wines, this one is made from low yields and more in the Burgundian style.

Great Sparkling wine from Alsace!
2020 E. Cremant Traber Alsace...$27.99
Pinot Blanc (50 %), Pinot Auxerrois (30 %), Pinot Gris (10 %), Chardonnay (10 %)

New Batch of Tears of Llorona Tequila Anejo

 
Tears of Llorona Extra Anejo...$249.99 / 1L
Requiring a careful combination of patience, care, and love, the process of creating Tears of Llorona starts with 100% pure Weber Agave Azul grown in the volcanic slopes of the Mexican highlands, where agaves grow slowly and naturally to achieve a higher starch content. Germán personally inspects each plant before harvesting and then slow-roasts the piñas the traditional way before fermenting using a proprietary yeast.
The fermented mosto, or must, is then distilled twice in traditional copper pot stills and aged in three distinct types of oak barrels— Scotch, Sherry Oak, and Brandy — for five years, which is two years longer than most traditional extra añejos.
Aged for five years in three types of barrels, including scotch, brandy, and Sherry oak barrels, Tears of Llorona is then masterfully blended by Germán, delivering a layered tasting experience with a complexity of flavors. Germán then bottles at 43% specific gravity to balance the flavors. This slow, hand-crafted process results in a very high rate of osmotic loss, known as the “angels’ tears”; another reason for the name, Tears of Llorona.
AROMA: Caramel custard, dried fruit, and dark chocolate
TASTE: Agave with a heady spiciness and complexity for experienced palates
FINISH: Described best as "a warm scarf on a cold day."
