Clandestin Les Semblables
This is unusual stuff: 100% Pinot Noir Champagne that is hand harvested, undergoes natural yeast fermentation with carbonic maceration, and is aged in French oak barrels. This is the first release of this new cuvee; it’s from far cooler sites than most Pinot Noir vineyards and expresses a bright, crunchy, tart character, then it’s bottled with no dosage at all.

Corasado
Today, the winery founded by Juan Gil Jiménez in 1916 is handled by the fourth generation, and they have unquestionably modernized the winery; it’s practically a technical marvel now. But what makes these wines special is the place, Jumilla, with its intense weather. It’s tough ground for most grapes, but Monastrell (the French, who borrowed it from Spain, call it Mourvedre) and Cariñena (once again, a borrowed grape dubbed Carignan by the French) can thrive here.

Dipinti Pinot Grigio
Pinot Grigio just the way you ordered it: light, fruity and refreshing.

Diving into Hampton Water
Celebrities are making gin (Ryan Reynolds), Cognac (Jay Z), and even Limoncello (Danny DeVito). They’re doing wine too, though with less pomp and noise. So give Jon Bon Jovi a fair shake! He’s partnered with acclaimed winemaker and brand owner Gérard Bertrand, and their very first production sold out even before its official release. It’s a tangy, dry combo of Grenache, Cinsault, and Mourvèdre, decorated with an image of a diving woman on the bottle. Makes sense.

Domaine de Ballade
You know the Gascony region from some Three Musketeers movie (or comic book or even real live actual book) but we geeks know it for one of the world’s greatest spirits, Armagnac. Still not all the vines in the area are meant for brandy; an increasing number are giving us tangy, lip-smacking wine from Sauvignon Blanc and Colombard grapes.

Domaine La Garrigue Vacqueyras
As delicious and special as the wines are, my love of Domaine la Garrigue is based as much upon my memory of the place as it is upon the character of the wine they produce. The Bernard family who own La Garrigue also own the beautiful inn and restaurant Les Florets, one of my favorite spots in that glorious region. Oh, yeah, the wine rocks.

Domaine Ricard Le Petiot
Vincent Ricard is part of a long heritage of wine growing in the Loire Valley; his grandfather founded the local co-op. But since Vincent has taken over the wines have become very smart, very modern but still very evocative of this limestone rich region.

Domaine St Vincent Sparkling
Think New Mexico can't produce amazing wine? Think again. The Gruet family's origins are in the Champagne region of France, but they produce these amazing wines in Albuquerque.

Don Ramon Red Blend
The Campo de Borja region of Spain churns out some of the best value wine in the world, and this little beauty is a perfect example!

En Route Pinot Noir
Andrew Delos is a damned good winemaker; he proved that at Macrostie for years. His style allows plenty of richness while keeping balance foremost and elegance just a half step behind the persuasive, Californian fruit. Drink this now or drink this in a few years; you’re good either way.
