Wines In The Collection

Maxime Magnon France | Languedoc-Roussillon
The first thing that strikes me when tasting Maxime Magnon’s rosé is always its beautiful hue: a violet so soft and glowing it seems almost otherworldly.

Maxime Magnon France | Languedoc-Roussillon
The imprint of the sun-kissed landscape of the Languedoc is clear, with aromas of honeysuckle and lime zest.

Maison Arretxea France | Southwest
Flavorful without heaviness, lively without too much acidity, this rosé accomplishes two things rarely accomplished in the galaxy of rosés.

Alex Foillard France | Beaujolais
This drinks like a Gamay infusion with lovely hints of potpourri, spice, and fresh grapes.

Domaine Marquiliani France | Corsica
Not only are the wildflowers soaring out of the glass, but with each sip, they are blossoming all around us.

Domaine Giacometti France | Corsica
Notes of herbs and sea salt further distinguish this dry and refreshing Corsican elixir, which shines served cool with grilled fish or summery salads.

Domaine Giacometti France | Corsica
As if a fistful of ripe summer fruit had been smooshed against a hot stone. The name is Corsican for “always happy,” and you’ll understand exactly why immediately upon pulling the cork.

Domaine Gallety France | Northern Rhône
Aromas of black pepper, briny black olive, and violets with the earthiness, herbs, and concentration of southern Rhône Grenache.

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.

Prieuré de Saint Céols France | Loire
Pure and precise, this chalky Sauvignon Blanc offers a combination of bright citrus with a creamy depth that is simply hard to resist.

Maxime-François Laurent France | Southern Rhône
This thirst-quenching, bright, and plummy red is enhanced with a little bit of chill and perfect for grillables.

Maxime-François Laurent France | Southern Rhône
It beckons you to follow Maxime-François’s advice: “Drink it when you are very, very thirsty!”

Tenuta La Pergola Italy | Piedmont
Arneis has enough luscious, peachy body to satisfy Chardonnay drinkers, along with the mouthwatering zip of a good Sauvignon Blanc.

Thierry Germain France | Loire
Redolent of almonds, honey, and a wide range of citrus, this kaleidoscopic Chenin finishes with a faint tannin, making it ideal alongside sushi, roast chicken, or a hard and flavorful cheese like Comté.

Domaine de Villaine France | Burgundy
Les Champs Cloux is fresh, with good acidity, but also among the domaine’s more robust reds.

Thierry Germain France | Loire
The 2024 vintage has its trademark elegance, with notes of blackberries, forest, and graphite.

Domaine de Villaine France | Burgundy
Vigneron Pierre de Benoist thinks the Cloux vineyard is arguably the best parcel for Pinot Noir in Rully.

Barruol / Lynch France | Northern Rhône
This juicy, blueberry-and-leather-infused Syrah with a long finish is ready to drink tonight.

Domaine de Reuilly France | Loire
Gently perfumed and full of fresh berries with the bright, stony finish typical of wines from Reuilly

Domaine Michel Brégeon France | Loire
A subtly floral nose and textured mouthfeel seal the deal. This is off-the-charts Muscadet.

Champalou France | Loire
The contrast of ripe, succulent Chenin Blanc fruit with a spike of flinty minerality is like licking honey off an arrowhead.

Lionel Faury France | Northern Rhône
The perfect lively, uncomplicated Syrah you’ll want to have over and over again.

Lionel Faury France | Northern Rhône
The “Emporium” is sourced exclusively from the Fourvier lieu-dit and sees about a year more in demi-muid and barrel than his standard Côte-Rôtie.

Reverdy’s trademark is a generous flavor of blossoming flowers channeled over the palate, culminating in a finely etched mineral finish.

Discover Dolcetto

Dolcetto is the most versatile, most affordable, and perhaps the most delightful red to come out of Piemonte.

A Visit to Punta Crena

For years, I’ve been dying to take my husband on an Italian adventure. I wanted to fully immerse ourselves in the culture, eat the food, see vineyards, and experience all of the things that I love about Italy.

A Pioneering Family in French Wine

Lapierre is still on the cutting edge globally of what can be achieved with zero-intervention, totally free winemaking, which of course must by definition start with maniacal viticulture that produces grapes that can stand up to the rigors of their technique (or lack thereof!). The Lapierre name remains a benchmark for the greatest Gamay produced on planet Earth. These wines are delicious proof...

Joie de Vivre and a Zeal for Burgundian Terroir

In a way, it’s a blessing that Valentin Montanet’s northern corner of Burgundy isn’t home to any premiers or grands crus.

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!
