Margaux has been looking for this wine since 2019 when she first discovered it at Chez Panisse. The old vine cuvée sang alongside roasted duck, green olives and celery root remoulade.
Thankfully the wine is still brilliant — On the palate it’s medium-bodied, vibrant and complex, with a beautiful core of fruit and smooth texture. This is one of the most exciting allocations of the year!
Sustainable farming practices, hand-harvested, whole-cluster and native yeast fermentation, unfiltered.
Cahors is the sneakily sophisticated but humbler country cousin of Bordeaux. It’s the ancestral home of Malbec and it captures everything that makes this estate beloved by sommeliers, importers, and everyday drinkers alike: depth without heaviness, structure without austerity, and earthy charm wrapped in juicy fruit. This is one of our favorite party picks.
Organic farming practices and aged for a year in French oak barrels.
Showing the influence of the breezy and fog-laced Oak Knoll District, this wine offers plush fruit with delicate acidity, and a structure defined by well-ripened, fine-grained tannins. Layered notes of blackberry preserves, stewed cherries, ripe plums, raspberries, violet, cocoa, and spiced wood. Persistent and full on the palate, this is an expressive Zinfandel that is drinking beautifully now, but will continue to improve for the next 5-7 years.
Certified sustainable farming practices. Family-owned winery. Dry-farmed vines and hand-harvested.
Extremely limited availability! Emidio Pepe has a cult following for his non-conventional winemaking techniques that have made the estate and their wines legendary. Better yet – we’ve aged the wine for you. Experts say this wine will peak from 2018-2030, aka now!
Organic farming practices, hand-harvested, native yeast fermentation, no fining/filtering, and no added sulfites.
