Here’s the thing: these wines are great values even before factoring in the hearty discount, so no need to stew on it too long.

Here it is, the sampler offer of the year: an extraordinary deal on an assortment of top cuvées from some of the most distinguished growers in our portfolio.

For white wine lovers, this year’s sampler leans mostly French, with the exception of one outstanding Blanc from Alto Adige.

Our 6-pack offering of red wines this year runs the gamut, including a mix of classic appellations from lovable growers from all over France and Italy.

A spry blend of nervy Sangiovese, a bit of Syrah, and local Ciliegiolo mingle together for a tart and juicy taste of Tuscan rusticity.

Sleek, crisp, light, and luminous, with a steely, saline finish.

This pomegranate-tinged rosé is remarkably fresh, pure, and focused, with a filtered-through-granite minerality.

First, it is impeccable. Second, it does not exceed its appellation; it is not a substitute Romanée Conti; it is a perfect Côte de Nuits-Villages.

A vibrant, crisp, taut, white grown at over 600 meters in granite soil in the very northern part of Italy.

It is a real-deal northern Rhône roasted-slope Syrah that walks the tightrope perfectly between creamy fruit, meaty tannins, and fresh spine.

A blend of Grenache Blanc, Ugni Blanc, Clairette, and Vermentino planted in the lieu-dit of Aupilhac, the little corner of the Larzac behind Sylvain’s winery.

Les Grézeaux comes from the Baudry’s oldest vines, which yield a concentrated and silky rouge that is ready to drink today but will age beautifully.

If Beaujolais were Burgundy, we might consider Morgon to be Vosne-Romanée, with its haunting perfume and silky texture, the proverbial iron fist in a velvet glove.

Dry, with tart green apple, pear, and a classic hint of petrol on the nose. The firm, zesty palate has enough substance for endless delicious pairings.

There’s no mistaking this red for anything other than Nebbiolo—perfectly ripe fruit and the telltale scents of tar and roses.

The classic Sauvignon Blanc characteristics are present, but understated—floral notes, subtle citrus, a cool grassiness—and there’s a chalkiness so textural you can feel it as you taste.

Brimming with honeysuckle, lychee, and citrus, this Bordeaux blend is reliably harmonious with Eastern cuisine.

Made with mature black olives, the most buttery and decadent oil we import.

It has a melony, jasmine scent, a frothy texture, and when paired with spicy wontons, dry-pepper chicken, and sesame noodles—though untraditional—was revelatory!

Contrary to the usual rough and tannic reds of the far-reaching Côtes de Provence appellation, this is fresh and lively! A gem hidden in the hills.

Muriel Giudicelli’s Patrimonio rouge is elegant, deep, bursting with ripe black fruits, silky smooth, and offering great length.

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

Here is a full-bodied dose of Terrebrune terroir you can enjoy over the next thirty years.

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

With notes of mixed black and red fruit and a spine of minerality, Quenard’s Gamay is crunchier, more aromatic, and more succulent than most bottles you’d find in Beaujolais.

Lovely now with a slight chill, their Refosco has a stimulating, stony backbone that ensures a slow evolution through the years.

Crystalline purity, mouthwatering salinity, and complexity without weight make this akin to an Alpine premier cru.?

The Sestis’ craving for a wine to be drunk cool during the warm months led them to create this rosato. Gentle and mouth-filling, it’s perked up by a touch of salinity imbued by the oceanic soil.

While it can age for a few more years, its rich, juicy fruit and plump texture make it hard to resist today.

At fourteen years old, this old-vine Merlot’s brambly berry notes have evolved and taken on a woodsier sophistication of shady underbrush, violet, and nutmeg. Furthermore, the soil here is uncommonly rich in limestone, meaning that this bottling leans to the mineral side, with graphite-like tannins.

The rare Manzoni Bianco grape at its purest: notes of lime blossom and lychee, a silky texture, and mouthwatering minerality.

From a small but mighty appellation boasting an impressive soil loaded with fossilized oyster shells. Peachy, finely textured, and pleasantly verdant.

A longtime personal favorite for the weeknight go-to blanc, citrusy fresh with just the right hint of salted butter to round it out.
