Hourglass - "HG-III" Red Bordeaux Blend, Napa Valley 2019

The 2019 vintage for HGIII is a knockout - an unequivocal example of how this expansive, rich and deeply textured wine overdelivers. A Bordeaux style estate blend, a trio of varietals all offering unique distinction and harmony to the final blend: Merlot leads with finesse and approachability, Cabernet Sauvignon elevates with  structure and polish, and Petite Syrah grounds the blend with depth and richness. Lifted aromas of red and black currants, with dried herbs and fennel as thier savory counterpart. A ripe juicy frame of dark sour and red cherry mingles with inky black cassis and a depth of powdery tannin laced with dark chocolate. Approachable now, and yet with the structure, density, and complexity for great ageability.

Cora - Pinot Grigio 'Colline Pescaresi' IGT, Abruzzo, Italy 2020

Incredible Value High Quality Pinot Grigio - Fresh, Fun, Uncomplicated Deliciousness!

Cora Pinot Grigio comes from 100% estate-grown fruit in the heart of Abruzzo, including some older vines planted in pergola abruzzese. They are certified sustainable for their farming practices-- no herbicides; no irrigation; limiting copper use, soil compaction, and CO2 emissions. The best part is, it's delicious! We're absolutely blown away by the quality of fruit, the 2020 is a pure expression of both the varietal and region. Aromas of white flowers, crisp pear, golden apple, and honeysuckle. The palate is dry, wonderfully fresh, with clean fruit, clean minerals, and a touch of salinity. An excellent everyday quaffer that would be amazing with lighter pasta dishes, soft cheeses, or grilled fish.

Weingut Tement - Sauvignon Blanc

Ried Grassnitzberg Erste STK Lage (1er Cru)

Südsteiermark, Austria 2018

Wine Enthusiast: 98 Points - Smoke, nettle and angelica stem notions meet ripe Mirabelle on the still shy nose. The palate also hase this delicious whiff of smoke, surrounding a still shy core and an essentially creamy, smooth and utterly fresh body. The combination of fresh lime peel, green herb and creaminess is utterly compelling. Drink by 2040.
