Selection
Rust en Vrede Cabernet Sauvignon 2020
$61.99Expressive black fruit jumps out of the glass. Juicy black cherry and cassis combine with blueberries, licorice and sandalwood. Full bodied and intense on the palate. Fine grained, grippy tannins balance well with a fresh, black-fruit acidity. Tobacco, nutmeg and savory spice bring complex layers to mulberry and bramble fruit that round out the palate. A typically well-structured Cabernet with excellent length.
91pts Wine Spectator: ‘A fresh, harmonious Cabernet, offering ripe boysenberry and cassis fruit flavors counterpointed by savory notes of bay leaf, graphite, smoke and woodsy spices, with refined tannins. Drink now through 2028.’
Domaine Grosbois Gabare Chinon 2020
$58.99Succulent and ripe, offering sweet strawberry and raspberry fruit. The tannins are delectable, coating the palate with a light texture of cocoa powder. It’s a harmonious, textural style that’s easy to like thanks to its friendly personality. Can be enjoyed now with charcuterie and benefits from a light chill.
Domaine Sohler Muenchberg Grand Cru Riesling 2018
$58.99Deliciously dry with hints of smokiness and toast on the palate. Suggestions of fruit and defined
minerality emphasizes its length and complexity.
Chateau d’Aydie Madiran 2016
$59.99Deep, intense ruby red. Fine, elegant and complex on the nose, with a blend of black fruit and coffee aromas. It starts off rich and follows through with a mature consistency and silky tannins. Fine, precise woody mouth aromas. An exceptional Madiran, powerful and complex, with unusual potential. This wine can very easily be kept for 7 to 10 years.
