2022 L.TRAMIER MACON-VILLAGES WHITE BURGUNDY

Burgundy pricing has been a wild ride the last several years (mostly upward), with both spiraling costs and difficult growing issues in the region forcing prices up more quickly than other regions. 2022 was one of the few vintages recently that had both strong quality AND good volume, so there was enough good fruit around to provide us a chance to feature a textbook example like this in the Select Six.

Clean and clear stone fruits and peach stones aroma with just a slight whiff of oak and malolactic butteryness, far less than what you would get from a New World Chardonnay at the same price. Nicely round on the palate and still showing a nice citrus note of acidity with subtle complexity to the finish that the little bit of time in the bottle has helped round into place.

Enjoy this as your go-to white w**e while it's around for this price.

Regular Price $17.99/btl, $15.29/case

2023 BODEGAS OLIVARES MONASTRELL JUMILLA 'ALTOS DE LA HOYA'

If you are a fan of full bodied and riper styled red w**es, then Monastrell from the regions around Valencia in Spain are bound to be in your wheelhouse.

The warm dry climate is very consistent vintage to vintage and the land for agriculture is still extremely cheap, so values abound here.

Bodegas Olivares is one of the first producers in the more modern era of w**emaking here to identify better sites, distinctive vineyards and older parcels to make better quality w**es that have since caught the w**e world's attention; a favorite quote for this w**e from former Wall Street Journal writer Letti Teague 'How could a w**e so densely flavorful be so cheap?'.

Deep blackberry and warm spice aromas with lots of currant and what I describe as 'freshly poured warm asphalt'. In a good way.

The palate has a lot more energy and movement that you would expect from such a juicy aroma thanks to the high elevations of the property providing extra acidity off cooling overnight temperatures.

Way more complexity and pleasure than a w**e at this price should have.

Regular Price $16.99/btl, $14.44/case

2024 GRAND'ARTE ALVARINHO LISBOA

Most of the excitement for the Albarino grape is centered on its use in Spain's Rias Baixas and just over the border into Portugal's Minho/Vinho Verde region.

What's less known is how much further down the coastline the grape has presence in Portugal, as it shows very well in the w**e regions that still have strong cooling influences from the Atlantic Ocean.

The w**egrowing area around Lisbon is the furthest West of any in continental Europe, where the land sticks out to get cooling breezes in multiple directions and stays quite moderate.

Softer and juicier than their more famous brethren, so the floral aspects and tropical fruits come through on the nose, but there is a nice zip of lime juice to the palate and finish that freshen it up.

And as many w**es we find from Portugal, we DARE you to find a white as distinct and compelling at this price from just about anywhere.

A fun curveball to take to parties and for everyday enjoyment.

Regular Price $12.99/btl, $11.04/case

2022 L.TRAMIER MORGON BEAUJOLAIS

While many w**es in this Select Six would work for Thanksgiving, this is a blatant 'Buy This W**e For Thanksgiving!' inclusion.

Cru Beaujolais is the apex of quality for the Gamay grape, so distinct even from one village to the other with all the unique soil and terrain changes.

It is rare to find a Cru that we can also feature in the Select Six, so we are excited to have this to show off.

A heavy presence of iron appears naturally in the schist soils, which has broken down over time to give the vineyards a unique 'rotten rock' appearance.

Earthy cherry, dry red fruits and to***co leaf notes on the nose and silky fine tannins give the w**es of Morgon some of the most Pinot-esque flavors in Beaujolais, and a reputation for rewarding aging.

Perfect for charcuterie, Thanksgiving stuffing and turkey legs.

Regular Price $20.99/btl, $17.94/case

2024 BARGEMORE BLANC COTEAUX d'AIX-EN-PROVENCE

This is a great white w**e for those that want to think outside the box a bit for the holidays.

Most people don't think that much about the white w**es in Provence, simply because such a healthy chunk of the Clairette and Vermentino/Rolle grown there gets blended into the oceans of Rose produced.

Good ones have texture and substance that will hold up to fuller flavored Mediterranean seafood dishes, fleshy almost like a White Bordeaux but still maintain that coastal zest and saline edge.

Bright melon and tangerine with some figgy juiciness that gets some skin texture on the palate, warm and friendly with a little note of seashell and minerality to the finish.

This is great to have on hand for cooler weather and seafood dishes that have more richness to them.

Regular Price $18.99/btl, $16.14/case

2025 ALAIN JAUME VENTOUX ROUGE 'LES GELINOTTES'

New vintage of an old favorite for our Rhone fans, and one whose price range has hardly budged over the years.

The vineyards at the base of Mont Ventoux are well known for providing some of the best value for reds in southern France, offering quality raw materials for good 'everyday' w**es. This has always been an even split of Grenache and Syrah tank aged and meant for easy early drinking, but offers a lot more.

Dark raspberry, garrigue and cracked pepper aromas with a nice savory and structured side on the palate that doesn't come from hard tannins.

Very nice and juicy, easy for all to enjoy with all sorts of foods or party applications.

Regular Price $14.99/btl, $12.74/case

INSIDER’S PICK:

2025 HARK VINEYARDS CARBONIC PETIT VERDOT - VA $23.99.
https://harkvineyards.com

October is Virginia W**e Month, an annual celebration highlighting the state’s harvest season, autumn foliage, and local vineyards.

If we were Surrealists, we would say “Ceci n’est pas une Rose”. But we won’t do that to you.

In reality this is about Virginian w**emaking ingenuity, as well as our second example of carbonic maceration using the Petit Verdot grape but with vastly different character.

In recent years Petit Verdot has become more popular in Virginia for the potential to make heartier, more robust red w**es.

The trick is getting fair use from younger vines and/or trickier vintages until the vines are mature enough to be dependable year after year.

The answer for some has been carbonic maceration, a w**emaking process most famously used for Beaujolais Nouveau that gets color and flavor out of the grapes with much less tannin.

The technique is more akin to the red w**e process, while most rose is made like a white w**e just using red grapes and getting very little color from the skins. Our ‘Carbonic-ish’ Petit Verdot from Present Company we poured earlier this Summer is a darker ruby and a bit more translucent, but the process really allows the w**emaker to dial in their preferred balance of color with flavor profile.

Poured in a dark glass this has aromas and palate that would make you think light red w**e, while your eyes encourage you to get the more Rose-ish notes.

Dark cherry and cola aromas that are more herbal when cooler or strawberry tones when room temp, but by and large nicely savory.

The palate is almost confusingly tasty, as first very red w**e/red berry and cherry skin then switching to blood orange and citrus, finishing with some tartness and very fine refreshing tannins.

This will be a fantastic Fall and Thanksgiving w**e that can perform with a large variety of temperature swings and foods.

The Insider’s Pick w**e will be available to taste Thursday and Friday and gets a 10% discount during the tasting. Come on by and taste some delicious w**e!

2024 Ciro Picariello Fiano Irpinia, Italy.

Tasting yesterday with Marco, the owner of Rocca di Montegrossi W**ery, San Marcellino – Monti in Chianti, Gaiole in Chianti – Italy and Scott Gould.

Impressive w**es all around.

We have four of their w**es arriving next Friday. Two Super Tuscans (Ridolfo Super Tuscan in 1.5l), Chianti Classico and a show stopping Vin Santo.

Grazi Marco and Scott!!

INSIDER’S PICK:

2025 UNION SACRE CABERNET FRANC PASO ROBLES - CA $22.99. WE 93 pt

From what’s become a sudden favorite of ours, Union Sacre W**es have found several spots on our shelves of late.

Their Gewurztraminer is an outstanding example of the grape that is of crazy value, their Cabernet Sauvignon- once introduced- is blowing off the shelves like dried leaves this time of year.

But there’s another w**e they produce that also found its way into our hearts; the 2025 Cabernet Franc.

Being Virginia-based, we’re very discerning concerning Cabernet Franc, as it has been responsible for turning a passing fashion to a booming, commonwealth-wide industry and a topic of study for the epicurious, young and old.

The method that Union Sacre uses to produce their own entry into such a competitive market is to use excellent fruit to start, ferment in both concrete tanks as well as low-impact oak barrels.

The result is a surprisingly joyous and approachable Cab Franc that would work well for both Wednesday or Saturday night feasts.

While light-bodied and easy to talk to the ’25 Cab Franc possesses remarkable depth for it’s price tag, and will garner a lot of “what is this???” types of comments at your next soiree.

The Insider’s Pick w**e will be available to taste Thursday and Friday and gets a 10% discount during the tasting. Come on by and taste some delicious w**e!

B**R UPDATE: NEW ARRIVALS, SNALLYGASTER PART 2

I've been trying to decide which pop culture analogy best describes me when all the Snallygaster b**rs start showing up in our distributor's inventories.

One is of an ambitious 12 year old Pokemon player at a caffeine fueled fever pitch ('Gotta catch them ALL!!'), the other is the James Wood character depiction on 'Family Guy' getting lured into a trap ('Ooo, a piece of candy!' 'Ooo, a piece of candy! Ooo, a piece of candy).

Maybe older customers would go with Monty Python's Mr. Creosote, and our shelves are trying to get one last wafer thin mint...

Point being, I've have no control, zero chill, and very little common sense this last few weeks getting all the Snallygaster gems as well as lots of other great new recent arrivals that came in just because.

This is a decidedly less IPA-leaning email, but there are a few beauties this round. Was particularly drawn to unique and distinct la**rs, b**rs and breweries with a great background or story, and a couple that really got me in the feels, so should be good supply of many things here. Just got to figure out where to put them all...

B**R UPDATE: NEW ARRIVALS, SNALLYGASTER EDITION

WHAT IS 'SNALLYGASTER'?

In American history and mythology, the legend of the Snallygaster came over with German immigrants during the early stages of colonization.

In the 1700s sighting of the 'dragon/bird chimera' began in the mountains of western Maryland, remaining legend well into the 1900s including 'sightings' and mysterious deaths attributed to the beast up to World War I.

It remained folklore until 2012 when the D.C. Brewer's Guild honored its fearsome visage for their b**r festival. What began as a strictly local/regional craft b**r festival has grown in a decade+ to one of the most diverse and best-attended b**r events in the Mid-Atlantic.

WHAT DOES SNALLYGASTER MEAN FOR YOU?

You should be excited as a b**r fan for Snallygaster, even if you are not attending the festival, as it brings us even more choices for great craft b**r than probably any other time of the year. Regular favorites go deeper into their portfolio to send more limited releases, while some producers make their sole delivery to the Mid-Atlantic each year just for this event.

Several of our favorite distributors do a great job taking care of their customers by getting tastes out there, some in advance of the festival on 10/10, others afterwards depending on what survives the weekend.

Not everything listed below is specific to Snallygaster, such as the Adroit Theory or Trillium, but there is definitely a lot of influence from the festival to get some extra-fun things out to customers.

This first wave is decidedly IPA-heavy (with a few exceptions), but there will be a broader selection of styles with some later-arriving producers and some post festival offerings. Stay tuned....
