Make sure to stop by this Saturday to try these two lovely wines with us!

Russian River Vineyards Rosé of Pinot Noir, Russian River Valley-Sonoma, 2023 ($17.99) - Only 145 cases of this beauty were made. A very cool and slow fermentation enhanced the elegant and delicate floral notes of fresh strawberries and guava that leap from the glass. It showcases a wonderful balance of fresh fruit and bright acidity. Cold soak, direct to press, and a great value!

Vicente Gandia Bobal Noir, Utiel – Requena - Spain, 2019 ($16.89) - This off-the-beaten-path wine comes from Valencia, in south-east Spain. The Bobal grape is well adapted to the extreme climate here (up to 104°F in summer,14°F in winter). Wine Advocate: 89 ($24) “Grapey and juicy, from low-yielding vines with 10% full clusters, long macerations, and no pumping over, looking for varietal character and aging the wine in new and second use French barriques for one year. The oak is surprisingly well integrated, and the wine is fruit-driven. Mellow acidity and a soft palate with good balance and primary flavors.”

This week we have a rosé and a ribera del duero open for tasting. Stop by anytime this Saturday to try them with us!

Chateau Henri Gaillard Rosé, Cotes de Provence, 2024 ($18.99) – This lovely wine is named after a respected wine merchant of the early 20th century (when Provence was NOT highly regarded). who was passionate about the region and supported the winemakers in successfully marketing their wines. This is a classic French rosé, palepink, bone dry, and light bodied. Bright and well-balanced, it’s a blend of Grenache, Syrah, Cinsault, Tibourenc, and Mourvèdre.

Hermanos Pérez Pascuas El Pedrosal Reserva, Ribera del Duero, 2009 ($31.99) – This exciting, mature Tempranillo comes from 70+-year-old vines. It’s polished, sleek, elegant, and slightly rustic with moderate alcohol and great acidity. Wine Advocate (Luis Gutiérrez): 95 ($65!!!) “It’s great when a wine has had time to develop a complex bouquet and polish and resolve its tannins. The nose reminds of truffles and autumn forest, not unlike mature old Burgundy. Quite complex. This has aged really well.”

07/19/2025

This week we’re tasting two lovely wines! Stop by anytime this Saturday to try them with us.

Domaine Moreux-Corty Pouilly-Fumé Artisan-Intro, 2023 ($24.99) - This is an interesting comparison with the Sancerre we offered last week. Both are 100% Sauvignon Blanc. They come from opposite sides of the Loire River. Pouilly-Fumés are known for their slight smokeyness (fumé means smoke). This is Moreaux-Corty entry-level Fumé, a blend of three terroirs, the majority around the village of Des Loges. As Jeb Dunnuck wrote, “It’s one hell of an entry-level wine and is going to shine on the dinner table.”

Vallepicciola Chianti Classico, 2021 ($21.99) - We tasted this back in February, when it was too young, but almost six months in the bottle has improved it greatly. It is starting to show the potential for which the Wine Spectator put in on the Top 100 list late last year. 92 TOP 100 ( #37) “The subtle influence of new oak accents this red’s cherry, blackberry, iron, and tar flavors. Vibrant and dense, with a fresh, energetic finish, showing excellent balance.”

07/12/2025

This week we’re tasting three fantastic wines! Stop by anytime this Saturday to try them with us.

Domaine de La Tonnellerie Sancerre, 2024 ($24.99) - Sancerre is the benchmark for Sauvignon Blanc, but $25 Sancerre may soon be a thing of the past. Gérard & Hubert Thirot own 22 acres of Sauvignon Blanc and 10 of Pinot Noir in Bué, perhaps the most prestigious town in the Sancerre district. This wine will get more refined and complex with some agingg, but it is certainly enjoyable now. Next week, we’ll try a Pouilly Fumé from just across the river.

Yllera Pepe Yllera, Ribera del Duero-Spain, 2019 ($14.99) - Former Wine of the Month! Wine Advocate: 91 Points, $18 “There is a big change in the wines since 2018. Less oak and earlier harvesting keep the wine to 14% alcohol with good freshness. A great improvement and a bargain. Consultant Jean-Claude Berrouet has had a big influence. 2023-2028”

Volante Bellini ($13.99) - This classic blend of Prosecco and natural peach purée is perfect for the warm summer months. It has an intense aromatic bouquet, some sweetness, yet with harmony with balancing acidity. Perfect for the summer. Invented by local bartender Giuseppe Cipriani in Venice in the 1930s.

07/05/2025

This weekend, we have two great wines open for tasting! Stop by anytime this Saturday to try them with us.

Soalheiro Alvarinho, Monção e Melgaço- Portugal, 2024 ($21.99) – Melgaço, the northernmost point in Portugal, lies just south of the Minho River which separates Portugal and Spain. It’s wines are very similar to the Albarinos of Spain. Wine Advocate: 91 “Floral aromas and good ripeness and freshness with a dry, granite finish.”

Bonpas Ventoux Grand Reserve des Challieres, 2020 ($15.95) – Bonpas, a highly regarded southern Rhône producer, also makes this delicious Ventoux from the south-facing slopes of Mont Ventoux in the Vaucluse. The grapes are Grenache (70%), Syrah, Mourvèdre, and Carignan. Deep red in color, it has a very pretty, floral nose with a hint of freshly churned butter. There are flavors of black fruit, lovely hints of spice, and impressive length. This nicely balanced wine is perfect with a light chill.

06/28/2025

This weekend we’re tasting three fantastic wines! Stop by anytime this Saturday to try them with us!

Lyrarakas Plytoì, Crete, 2019 ($26.49) - This is an organic and biodynamic Greek wine made from the Plytoì varietal (100%). The indigenous Plytoì was nearly extinct before it was rescued in the early 1990s by the Lyrarakis family. Pale yellow in color with clean fruity aromas of citrus, green apple, pear, and kiwi, a full and lively mouthfeel, and a firm, savory, minerally finish.

Ninety+ Cellars Chianti Riserva, Lot 144 ($11.99) - Only the central, “classico” region of Chianti can be called “Classico.” Riservas must be aged at least two years. This is made from 100% Sangiovese grapes grown at a family-run estate that dates back over a century. Egant and layered profile of dried flowers and ripe strawberries with lingering notes of earth and spice on the finish.

Giorgi Cellars Buttafuoco Oltrep Pavese “Clile Tre Donne,” 2011 ($19.99 net) - From Italy’s Lombardy region, Buttafuoco is a style, not a grape or subregion. This is 60% Croatina, 30% Barbera, and 10% Uva Rara. Obviously mature, it has an intense aroma of tertiary red fruits, spicy notes, and a light hint of vanilla. Quite flavorful with notes of ripe red fruits, spices, and a light smokiness with a relatively long finish. Complex and strong. Pair it with rich dishes.

06/07/2025

This week we will be tasting a winning Sauvignon Blanc from New Zealand and another excellent Bordeaux value from the stunning 2022 vintage! Try them with us anytime on Saturday.

Lobster Reef Sauvignon Blanc, Marlborough - New Zealand, 2023 ($15.95) - This lovely every-day white is intensely aromatic, bright, and full of tropical flavors. Balanced, refreshing, and generous on the palate, it’s named for the brightly colored Rock Lobsters that live off the coast. Wine Spectator: 89 “Fresh lemon-lime, passion fruit, and Key lime pie flavors are exuberant and mouth-watering in this white, with lemongrass notes on the finish.”

Château La Verrière Bordeaux Supérieur, 2022 ($19.99) – Bordeaux wines are NOT all expensive. Some are great values. Located 38 miles due east of the city of Bordeaux, La Verrière has been owned by the Bessette family for four generations. Alain Bessette is named among the ‘Talents de Bordeaux Supérieur’ every year, a shortlist of top winemakers there. This vintage received a gold medal at the Concours Général Agricole – Paris. It’s 85% Merlot and 15% Cabernet Franc aged 18 months in a variety of different barrels, one-third new.

05/31/2025

This week we’re tasting a rose and a French red wine. Stop by any time to try them with us!

Château Gassier Rosé “Esprit Gassier,” Côtes de Provence, 2024 ($20.99) - A superb Provençal rosé, clearly superior to popular Summer in a Bottle and Whispering Angel. The vineyards underwent organic conversion in 2016. This is a blend of estate and neighboring fruit, specifically Grenache (39%), Cinsault, Syrah, and Rolle. The wine is light in color with peach nuances and delicate notes of white flowers and white fruits. Beautifully balanced.

Gabin et Félix Richoux Irancy, 2019 ($35.99) - Irancy is one of the least well-known red Burgundy villages because it is closer to Chablis than it is to the Côte d’Or. Its Pinot Noirs are a bargain! Wine Advocate (William Kelley): 92 “Brilliant, bursting with aromas of raspberries and cherries mingled with rose petals, spices, and sweet loamy soil. Medium-bodied, supple, and seamless, its melting, structuring tannins are entirely concealed in an ample core of succulent, perfumed fruit.”

05/17/2025

This week we’re tasting two GREAT wines! Stop by anytime this Saturday to try them with us.

Domaine Commanderie Quincy, 2023 ($18.99) - Quincy (Can-SEE,) comes from two Loire Valley villages just south-west of Sancerre. It is also made from Sauvignon Blanc. Jean-Charles Borgnat’ purchased 3.7 acres of young vines in La Commanderie (hence the name of the winery) when Jacques Rouzé needed to recapitalize after the catastrophic frost of 1991. The wine is herbal and crisp with a green apple taste and a finish of zesty lemon and clean minerality. Marvelous with oysters and most seafood! Gold medal, Concours Général Agricole.

Cascina Vèngore Monte di Stefano Barolo, 2018 ($38.99) - Warmer recent vintages have improved the quality of Barolos from producers with less advantageous sites. This Nebbiolo is light, fresh, and elegant. Relatively open-knit with moderate acidity, relatively light tannins, and expressive fruit and floral flavors. The bouquet is quite good for an inexpensive Barolo, and the flavors build in the mouth. Lots of character! Pretty impressive! Decanting helps.

05/10/2025

This week we’re tasting a Rosé and a French red. Stop by anytime this Saturday to try them with us!

Château Sainte Roseline Rosé “Le Cloitre” Cru Classé, Côtes de Provence, 2024 ($19.49) – CERTIFIED ORGANIC and carries the Cru Classé designation (S-R was one of the 23 properties listed in 1955 as the best in Provence. James Suckling: 90 “A juicy, fruity, and refreshing rosé with dried strawberries, frozen berries, and mild spices on the nose. Medium-bodied with fresh acidity. Linear and joyful, with a fruity, delicious finish.”

Domaine Les Roches Bleues Brouilly Les Trois Loups, 2020 ($27.99) - Despite our best efforts, Cru Beaujolais wines have not developed the following they deserve, presumably because of their association with Beaujolais Nouveau. These wines are much, much better than that! Les Roches Bleues is named for the blue schist soil where it is grown. The property is run by Jonathan and Chloë Bassy, the third generation. Soft, juicy, and endearing. 8-10 months in oak casks, little or no filtering, little or no sulphites. Serve cool.

05/03/2025

This week we’re tasting a white Burgundy and a Petit Verdot. Stop by anytime this Saturday to try them with us!

Nadège and Emmanuel Fellot Bourgogne Blanc, 2023 ($23.99) – This is a small, organic domaine in southern Beaujolais. The Fellot family has cultivated this land since 1829. The area is referred to as the Pierres Dorées, or golden stones, because of its golden-hued limestone. The wine has pretty green apple and flowers on the nose and a round, almost creamy texture with lemon curd, vanilla, and toasted almond. It’s focused and medium-textured with an excellent finish. Quite a white Burgundy value!

Pérez Cruz Chaski Petit Verdot, Maipo-Chile, 2018 ($27.99) – One of the 5 red Bordeaux varietals, Petit Verdot has fallen out of favor there because it doesn’t always fully ripen. That’s a shame because it can make a delicious wine with body, color, and loads of flavor. It has more success in warmer climates. Wine Advocate on the previous top vintage: 93! “Aged 16 months in 225-liter French oak barrels, 60% new. Fesh, complex, & vibrant. Tannins are fine, and there’s stuffing and balance to develop nicely. One of the finest Petit Verdot bottlings out there.” The new winery has been featured in architecture books.

04/26/2025

We’re tasting two Italian wines and a canned sangria for this week’s tasting! Stop by any time this Saturday to taste with our team.

Colombaio di Cencio Toscana Bianco, 2021 ($24.99; Beekman’s special: $9.99) - Expensive at $25, this is a steal at $10! The perfect porch-pounder for warm weather! The blend is 40% Trebbiano, 40% Malvasia, and the rest Chardonnay, Sauvignon, and Pinot Bianco. It was made in a serious style with some skin maceration and aging in 50% large oak barrels. Straw yellow with a distinctive bouquet and light vanilla notes. Only 250 cases were made.

Costa Stefanino (Nino Costa) Barbera d’Alba “Bardot,” 2021 ($19.99) – We’re huge fans of Barbera, and this one is a delicious, juicy crowd-pleaser. Winemaker Alessandro Costa cultivates the vineyards; his parents, Nino and Gemma, run the Azienda. They have adopted organic methods, using natural fertilizers and no herbicides. The wine ferments and ages 8 months in stainless steel. Delicious and very food-friendly.

Sangri Sangria ($17.99/4pk cans) - This is perhaps the best premade version we have ever tasted. It uses quality red wine as the base, Merlot grapes from Washington State’s Columbia Valley. And the owners of Sangri are Bergen County residents Deirdre and Erick Paley, and the formula is based on Deirdre’s family recipe (no artificial sweeteners, gluten free. A portion of sales are donated to the Navy SEAL Foundation.
