Winter Sun

The winter sun seems far away but still makes us squint our eyes. The promise of warmer days to come but we still feel the burn on our neck. These wines are also bold and promising better days, like when you open them.

Antiquum Farms daisy Pinot Gris:  $26

Antiquum Farms has a radical yeti of a man winemaker who has as many animals in the vineyard as grapes. This pinot gris is focused, precise, and all about refined texture, minerality and crisp acidity.  Vibrant citrus and floral components blend seamlessly with pomme fruit, lemon curd, pear, river stone and metallic nuance. 

Domain Girand Sancerre: $27

Sancerre is brought in by the very special importer Louis Dresner- My favorite Sauvignon Blancby far! The chalky soil brings out the characteristic flinty, mineral and green notes to give fresh, ripe and delicious flavor. 

Keep Wines,Counoise: $32

The Keep Wines are almost raw, with no pesticides, fertilizers or sulfur. They are hand harvested and foot stomped, meaning they are made with such love! This particular wine is a carbonic red, cloudy medium ruby color that is light and refreshing. Best served chilled.

El Enemigo Malbec: $29

El Enemigo is a special Malbec; I found it while working at John Howie’s Steakhouse. Rich and concentrated, it offers aromas of black fruit, cherry and dark berry-fruit on the nose followed in the palate by a full-bodied wine with flavors of spice, blackberry, black cherry, pepper and a slight floral character. The finish is elegant and lengthy. You’ll love it! 

Hedges Family Red Mountain Syrah Descendants LiegeoisDuPont: $29

Debatably our most popular Syrah in the house, definitely mine… It is BIG and rich with strong full aromas of licorice and baking spices and dried orange peel creating an all-out palate attack of the most delicious kind. If you are searching for the perfect red wine, search no further. You’ll be able to acquire this one without digging too deep into the pockets.
