I'm at Mr. Lyon's in Palm Springs with dear friends last weekend and there's very little on the list for under $150. But saw this at $135 and reminded of how popular it was while stocked here few years ago. I brought it back in this week - drinks like an Amarone at about half the price - $29!

NEW ARRIVAL
CHATEAU HAUT MUSSET MONTAGNE-ST-EMILION 2015 $28
I'm sure you're all, like, "Hey, but it's a satellite AOC"; to which I respond "Sure, it's an outer cru, certainly not Grand Cru Classe, but the vintage, man!... 2015! Where are you going to find a 2015 (anything Bordeaux), let alone for under $30"?! Tasted blind. Bought a bunch. Worth every penny.

AIX Rose 2023 on Sale $15.99 - (reg $19.99)

Comprised of the varieties you'd expect from Provence: Grenache, Syrah and Cinsault. 90+ ratings from Wine Enthusiast & James Suckling. But then, of course, there's 'Whispering Angel' ($23) and even though it presents practically identical qualities, it's worth the extra money bc of the poetic name. Right?
