Crack it open now; aromas of tart blackberries and mint will waft out of the bottle, a perfect reminder of summer and outdoor grilling.

La Marca di San Michele Italy | Le Marche
It’s both inviting––it makes for a lovely apéritif––and angular, prime to accompany lemony pasta dishes, clams, or flavorful and rich vegetarian lasagnas.

Château Thivin France | Beaujolais
Brambly and mineral, this bottling exudes both the convivial charm of Gamay and the crunchy intensity of the Côte de Brouilly.

Meyer-Fonné France | Alsace
If you don’t recognize Félix Meyer’s touch from the rich aromas of lychee, candied ginger, and rose petals, you will by the time you finish your first glass.

Meyer-Fonné France | Alsace
Wearing a distinctive terroir stamp of Alsace: deep, spicy, resinous, and reminiscent of a walk in the forest after a rain.

Kuentz-Bas France | Alsace
Bone-dry on the palate, it features intense, clean aromas with excellent minerality.

Albert Boxler France | Alsace

Il Palazzotto Italy | Piedmont
Supple, pretty notes of freshly crushed blackberries and raspberries—it will pair well with pretty much anything.

Eric Chevalier France | Loire
This exquisite Muscadet is a perfect reflection of where it originates, as if it’s been sculpted by winds off the ocean and infused with hints of sea salt in the air.

La Soeur Cadette France | Burgundy
The grape is better known as the Loire Valley’s delicate, citrusy Muscadet, but grown in the land from whence it’s named, it takes on lovely length and texture.

Domaine Ludovic Engelvin France | Languedoc-Roussillon
At once similarly saline and nutty as vin jaune or sherry, but also singular and standalone in its notes of watermelon flesh and rind.

Domaine Tempier France | Provence
While it sports plenty of dark bramble, mulberry, and plum skin, it’s tempered by a fresh bite of blood orange and violet.

Domaine Jolivet France | Northern Rhône
Golden, luscious aroma and flavor, a delicious nectar infused with honeysuckle that invites you in at first sniff for a leisurely dip.

Steiger-Kalena Italy | Molise
There’s a quality that almost feels mouth-cleansing; like a spoonful of zesty citrus sorbet in the middle of a multi-course meal.

Now through Saturday, March 29th, take 20% off dozens of selections from France and Italy.
Magnificence in the Mâconnais

I’ve heard many clients say that the wines of Robert-Denogent offer great value and can be compared with more expensive wines from the Côte d’Or. Don’t, however, buy them as substitutes or bargains. Buy them for what they are: phenomenal white Burgundies that sing their own song, one that is beautiful but distinct from the songs of Meursault or Puligny-Montrachet...
In Praise of Pinot Noir

With a 20% discount on the bottles below, I recommend sampling our Pinot Noir selections in many forms, from Burgundy, the Loire, Champagne, and beyond.
Breton to the Max: Beyond Morgon

A good half-century before the now-roaring phenomenon of natural wine took hold, Beaujolais biochemist Jules Chauvet urged local vignerons to “produce wines with low alcohol and a pretty perfume.” If anybody took these words to heart, it is “P’tit Max” Breton…
Twenty Years of An Extraordinary Partnership in Chablis

Rewind twenty years to the birth of Domaine Costal, a singular collaboration between Chablis’s historic Collet family and Kermit, whose appetite for classic Chablis was—and still is—insatiable. As the story goes, Kermit asked vigneron Gilles Collet to separate a little juice from each harvest, age it the traditional way...
Welcome to the Aosta Valley

The mesmerizingly rugged valley is characterized by sheer cliffs on either side—tall, majestic granite peaks more fitting for mountain goats than vines. Incredibly, a precious few hectares of terraced vines cling to the hillsides, mostly to supply the locals with their daily sustenance. The overwhelming majority of the grape farmers here take their grapes to a local cooperative, so estate-bottled wine in this neck of the woods is one of the rarest of Italian wines...
Sangiovese: Only in Tuscany

Unlike Cabernet Sauvignon and Chardonnay, which produce prestigious wines around the world, great Sangiovese only comes from one place: Tuscany. From the rolling hills of Chianti Classico to the sunbaked slopes of Montalcino...
Spotlight on Quincy

In 1936, several centuries after Cistercian monks first planted Sauvignon Blanc in Quincy, this commune became the second recognized appellation in France, after Châteauneuf-du-Pape. As recently as fifty years ago, the wines of Quincy were more celebrated in France for quality than Sancerre or Pouilly-Fumé, and commanded a higher price. Today the appellation has largely faded from recognition...
An Iconic Family’s Most Approachable Wines

Over the last 130 years, as each new generation of the Brunier family has come of age, the elders have carved out a lane for the younger generation to grow and express themselves. In 1891, the original Henri Brunier purchased plots of the wooded, stony plateau in Châteauneuf-du-Pape known as La Crau for his son Hippolyte, who cleared parts of the land to plant his first vine stocks. Nearly a century later...
Never Underestimate Muscadet

Muscadet, the white wine made from Melon de Bourgogne near the city of Nantes along France’s northern Atlantic coast, is the ultimate quaffer: bone-dry, low in alcohol, and bracingly crisp, its ability to quench one’s thirst or wash down salty sea creatures is unparalleled…
The Carpe Vinum Collection

An ever-changing offering of wines that are just about to sell out; one last opportunity to seize a range of selections before they disappear from our shelves forever.
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!
