Brick and Mortar Chardonnay 2023– Sale $29.99 – 93 pts Wine Enthusiast

"This wine is lively, with aromas of apple, pear, citrus, lemon curd and bright acidity on the nose. Flavors on the palate suggest clementine, Meyer lemon and white grapefruit zest, cascading into lime-vanilla crema, dried spice and a dry, long finish. Pair with fresh Dungeness crab." -WE

Selbach-Oster Riesling Trocken 2022 – Sale $24.99- 93 pts Wine Advocate

“The 2022 Riesling trocken is clear and in a fine way intense on the nose that reveals remarkable purity and crunchy/stony salinity. Medium-bodied and tight on the palate, this is a straight, intense and wonderfully persistent Riesling with ripe, elegant fruit and savory acidity. 12% stated alcohol. Screw cap closure.”– WA

Castro Ventosa El Castro de Valtuille Godello 2020 – Sale $24.99 – 93 pts Wine Advocate

"2020 is a very good vintage for whites too, even if the 2020 Godello has 1% more alcohol than the 2019 and is a little rounder. In 2020 they stopped doing any maceration and did a direct pressing of the destemmed grapes, so the wines are going to be a bit lighter than in the past. They don't do rackings or stir the lees, and they don't use any yeasts or enological products. It's more Burgundian and more textured, with depth and complexity.” - WA

Miguel Merino Vinas Jovenes 2021 – Sale $24.99 – 92 pts Tim Atkin

“Two main vineyards, planted in 2001 and 2010, are the principal components of this "young vine" cuvée of Tempranillo and 8% Graciano. Forward and fruity, with very little wood, supple, caressing tannins, graceful raspberry and wild strawberry fruit and balancing acidity. A Rioja for Pinot Noir lovers.” - TA

Aperture Cabernet Sauvignon 2021 – Sale $54.99 – 96 pts Wine Advocate

“The 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon comes from Aperture's estate vineyard in Healdsburg and their newest vineyard acquisition, Farrow Ranch in Alexander Valley, plus some of the original single vineyards in the Aperture program like Oliver Ranch. It is blended with 6% Petit Verdot, 5% Merlot, 3% Malbec and 1% Cabernet Franc and was matured for 16 months in 55% new French oak. It has vibrant, layered aromas of blueberry compote, lavender, aniseed, milk chocolate and nutmeg with undertones of cast iron and tobacco leaves. The medium-bodied palate is elegantly styled, pairing deep flavors with a weightless feel due to its bright acidity and velvety tannins. It has a long, latent finish and deserves 3-5 years in bottle. 4,480 cases produced." - Erin Brooks

Fattoria Uccelliera Brunello di Montalcino 2019– Sale $87.99 – 95 pts Vinous

"Brooding yet intense, the 2019 Brunello di Montalcino bursts from the glass with a wave of autumnal spices, crushed cherries, cedar shavings and steeped plums lifted by pine hints. This is deeply textural, elegant and refined, with a dense wave of ripe wild berry fruits, all guided by vibrant acidity, offset by oranges and balsam herbs. It finishes grippy and extended with a black hole of tension and a sweet and sour sensation that lingers on and on as crunchy tannins resonate throughout. The 2019 is youthfully backward today, yet there's a balance that can't be denied, especially as I watched it open up over twenty-four hours. This is a total pleasure to taste. Bury the 2019 deep in the cellar."-VM
