Red wine. Northern Rhône, France. Sustainable. 100% Syrah. Brilliant violet. Vibrant blackberry and boysenberry aromas, lifted by a spicy peppery element. Juicy and focused on the palate, offering gently sweet dark fruit flavors that deepen on the back half. Fine-grained tannins shape the persistent finish, which leaves behind smoky mineral and cherry pit notes. This wine delivers outstanding value.

White wine. Sancerre, Loire Valley, France. Organic. 100% Sauvignon Blanc. From 25 year old vines in chalk based soils known as “Terres Blanche” from which it is named. A richer Sancerre with expressive floral notes and vibrant minerality. An excellent pairing with seafood, cheeses, and poultry.

White wine. Pic Saint Loup, Languedoc, France. Biodynamic. 20% Grenache Gris, 20% Grenache Blanc, 15% Roussanne, 15% Rolle, 15% Carignan Blanc, 10% Clairette, 5% Muscat. A pure, layered bouquet of pear and citrus, with notes of earth and almond. On the palate the wine is crisp, medium-bodied, and impeccably balanced, with lovely depth and richness, and a distinct signature of its terroir. Ends with a very long, complex, and refined finish.
