Jadix Cabernet Sauvignon - $16

From Corbieres, Southwest France. This Cab is the best of both worlds. Blackberry

and ripe red raspberry flavors build the foundation for rhubarb and anisette notes, all

nicely scented by a touch of smokey cedar. The palate is crazy approachable with a

burst of fruit and lifting acidity to soften up supple persistent tannins. No doubt drinking

it by itself is a pleasant experience, but is also a deliciously formidable weapon against

any savory herbaceous dish.

San Marzano Edda Bianco - $21

Chardonnay, Fiano, and Malvasia White Blend from Puglia, Italy. This elegant wine exudes white peach, apricot, and tropical melon notes, playing off river stone minerality and the most tastefully placed signature of vanilla nuttiness. The palate shows the duality of lushness and liveliness that all feels like it was meant to be there. Gorgeous white.

Nomade Pinot Noir - $18

100% Pinot from Patagonia, Southern Argentina. A wide variety of lively cherry, hibiscus, cocoa nibs, and the slightest hint of earthy coffee are brought to a silky palate of bright but weightless acidity and ethereal light tannin. If you planned on sticking a big-ass bird in an oven any time soon, I would definitely bring this one on the day.

Pago del Vicario Petit Verdot - $16

100% Carbonic Petit Verdot from Pago, Spain. Juicy raspberry, tart strawberry and cherry candy is packed into this light as a feather red you can drink by the gallon, with no discernable tannin, crispy juiciness & mineral/rosy floral notes on the palate.  Don’t be fooled by the label. This dry, refreshing & endlessly fun ‘chillable red’ is no Franzia.

Arrels Mas Janeil Red - $32

60% Grenache, 20% Carignan, 10% Syrah, and 10% Mourvedre from Roussillon, France. You want a chilly day red for grownups? Time to tuck in. Black olive and licorice wisps through a thick blanket of black cassis, dried cranberry, dried Provencal herbs and sunbaked earth. Black fruit and underbrush on the palate is heightened by a chewy tannic structure and smoothly plump mouthfeel putting it in perfect drinkable balance.

Chispas Blanco - $14

Macabeo-Based White Blend from Campo de Borja, Spain. Dry, bright, and fruity, vibrant aromatics of ripe green apple, white peach, and zesty fresh citrus carry into a

light and round mouthfeel lifted up by well-integrated acidity. This is the apricity-inducing refreshing cool weather white bound to please many at any table. Namely, yours.
