Wines In The Collection

Château Graville-Lacoste France | Bordeaux
Whatever snacks are on your table or picnic blanket, this blanc will fit the bill with its pretty notes of green apple, citrus, and subtle tropical fruits.

Famille Brunier France | Southern Rhône
April Adventures Club ~ This is about as quaffable as the region’s rouges get.

Guy Breton France | Beaujolais
April Club Rouge ~ Floral and succulent, bursting with notes of little red berries, but it is also delicate and light on its feet.

Domaine de Durban France | Southern Rhône
April Club Rouge ~ Durban does here what they do best, keeping the focus and precision of the terroir as well as loads of fruit and pleasure.

Domaine Jolivet France | Northern Rhône
April Club Bianco ~ This thoroughbred wine is sculpted for the cellar but still provides a lot of immediate gratification.

Domaine de Terrebrune France | Provence
April Club Bianco ~ This mineral blend has an ethereal perfume, reminiscent of blossoming flowers with a hint of fennel.

Domaine Hauvette France | Provence
April Club Gourmand ~ Clairette—a name which translated means clear and bright. The wine certainly is, and at the same time, lush and nervy.

Meyer-Fonné France | Alsace
April Club Gourmand ~ Meyer’s Riesling Réserve is a mélange of different terroirs around his domaine in Katzenthal, and is a precise, dry, minerally Riesling loaded with character.

Héritage du Pic Saint Loup France | Languedoc-Roussillon
April Club Gourmand ~ Evokes citrus rind, herbs, and sea spray and boasts all of the freshness of a Mediterranean breeze.

Bernard Baudry France | Loire
April Club Gourmand ~ Matthieu Baudry captures both youthful fruit and energizing mineral textures with this rosé.

Tintero Italy | Piedmont
April Club Gourmand ~ Finding a wine as tasty and versatile at this price is not an easy task.

Vigne Rada Italy | Sardinia
April Club Gourmand ~ Rada’s dense, minty Cagnulari is a reminder to take Sardinian reds very seriously.

Domaine Dupeuble France | Beaujolais
May Adventures Club ~ Dupeuble’s rouge is thirst-quenching and tangy with loads of violet and réglisse.

Prieuré de Saint Céols France | Loire
From a small but mighty appellation boasting an impressive soil loaded with fossilized oyster shells. Peachy, finely textured, and pleasantly verdant.

B. & G. Hubau France | Bordeaux
At thirteen years old, its brambly berry notes are but a memory of its youth. They have evolved and taken on a woodsier sophistication of shady underbrush, violet, and nutmeg.

Domaine de Villaine France | Burgundy
May Club Chevalier ~ This rouge is so silky and aromatic, reminiscent of strawberries and cherries. Open it over the next five years to fully enjoy its bright, fresh character.

J. Lassalle France | Champagne
May Club Bianco ~ The bottling is classic Champagne in every sense: full, well-balanced, and elegant, with a fine mousse, delicious to drink.

Beaujolais

“Beaujolais must be the most inspired invention in the history of wine. What a concept, downing a newborn wine that has barely left the grape, a wine that retains the cornucopian spirit of the harvest past. It even serves to remind us of the first time man tasted fermented grape juice and decided it was an accident worth pursuing.
Who invented Beaujolais? We don’t know, but some of the revisionist winemakers who quite recently snuffed it out are very well known indeed.” –Kermit Lynch, Adventures on the Wine Route, page 181
Fine Wine Bargains

Nebbiolo by Another Name

In December of last year, the excellent wine blog, “Opening a Bottle,” likened one of our wines to Shohei Ohtani, the 30-year-old Japanese phenom who has changed the game of baseball and might go down as the greatest player of all time. I’ve thought about this comparison nearly every day since, wondering each time I take a sip of red Burgundy, Barolo, or Côte-Rôtie, “Could this also be considered the Shohei Ohtani of wine?”
I finally tasted a worthy contender—or set of contenders—last month...
Rosé with Pizza?

Here in California where I grew up, pizza used to be a tough crust oozing with the cheapest cheese money could buy and a tomato sauce so raunchy it took a dose of macho red wine to wash it down. Cleanse the palate, as we gourmets say today. But the pizza scene has evolved…

50th Anniversary Merchandise

When the esteemed French wine artist Michel Tolmer created beautiful artwork for our 50th anniversary, we knew right away that we had to feature it on a few select items of merch. After spending maybe a little too much time researching the options, we landed on a classy, leather-strap cap, a comfortable t-shirt made from 100% cotton, and a tote made with incredibly sturdy, fair-trade, and organic cotton by a certified B corp that invests in the livelihoods of women and farmers of India, featuring three wine sleeves and two other compartments for all of your other needs!
