Absolu Chardonnay
This is grown on eroded limestone and clay in one of the newer classified spots along the Mediterranean Sea. Night harvesting helps retain acidity and that’s important in a place that might as well be a beach in Capri were it not for the surrounding vines and the winds coming down off the mountains to the north and west. This is fermented partly in stainless steel and partly in barrel, but all of the wine spends a year in French oak.

Aiaiai Priorat
This is a tiny project started by Silvia Puig in her garage in one of the villages of Priorat, the site of Spain’s most intense wines. She was consulting for some of the more important wineries, like Clos Figueras, and wanted to make wine in “limited quantities so that the artisan element is valued.” En Números Vermells remains a handcrafted producer, with the Aiaiai wine being blended from Garnacha, Cariñena and Syrah.

Amelia Chardonnay
We don’t often tell you about Chilean Chardonnay. Why? Because ever since the Casablanca region popped up on our radar, Chardonnay has been often good, but rarely great. This may be the best example of why Chilean Chardonnay deserves your attention; it has some of the buttery character of California Chardonnay but it’s far more balanced and citrusy than 90% of California’s output. Trust this one.

Austin Hope "Austin"
The “Austin” wine is a multiple vintage blend of vineyards in the region; think of it as the ultimate winemaker’s craft for his own table.

Balcon sur la Mer Rose
The first time I ever saw this bottle and tried the wine, I kinda felt like I was transported onto a luxurious vacation. Someplace like Saint Barths. But I'm not paying and someone is just pouring me lovely rosé in infinite quantities as my feet rest in the sand. Balcon delivers everything you want in a great rosé in spades. This unctuous pink wine is dry, stony, fruity, lengthy. Comprised of Grenache, Grenache Gris and Mourvedre.

Belcoop Red
The massive Pays d’Oc covers the greater part of Mediterranean France. After the railroad was built, linking the south to Paris, wines of the Languedoc filled the carafes of Parisian bistros, and they still do today. But the last century has seen vast improvements to the wines that once were built only for value. The rest is traditionally made; though used and funky barrels are no longer the norm in the Languedoc, where this tasty wine is crafted.

Grenache Blanc is a work in progress, but only because the consumer is still discovering it. With enough sunshine, Grenache Blanc can develop weight and power. The wine is fermented like Chardonnay in some ways, though the stainless steel variety; its lees are stirred in the tank, creating greater richness and texture, and Grenache Blanc is very happy that way. You will be too.

Belle Glos Balade
Pinot from your friends at Caymus Vineyards. This is what we like to call Pinot for Cab drinkers. Large and in charge, this Pinot packs more punch than many Pinot's that are twice as expensive. Don't worry about the red wax...these people know what they are doing.

Belleplane Chardonnay
In France, the grape is sometimes secondary - it’s the place that counts. The French label police have loosened up and they’re okay with Chardonnay being on this label. It matters if you’re close to the coast, or up in the mountains, and with a grape like Chardonnay, cooler, higher elevation sites are best. A third of the wine is barrel-fermented - the rest is in stainless steel, with enough lees-stirring to fatten up the wine and round it out.

Benieres Chardonnay
The vast vineyards of France’s Languedoc hold many well-known grapes, including Chardonnay that is friendly and accessible. This one is gathered from organic vineyards on the Aspères plateau with its excellent marl and limestone soils. The winemaking is straightforward – stainless steel fermenters and just enough lees stirring to enrich the texture and flavors. We love finding wines like this!
