Verduno's Pelaverga is 100% "geek juice," but I love it with all of my heart. With its spicy, red fruited character, it's such a joyful bottle of wine to smell and sip, 

Another vintage of Colene Clemens' Dopp Creek Pinot Noir, another 94 point rating from Wine Spectator.

Lumassina is a very rare grape that is only found in coastal Liguria. Punta Crena is one of the top producers of this unique grape, and thank God for importers like Kermit Lynch for bringing lesser-known wines like this one to the US. 

Marietta Cellars is one of my favorite domestic producers, and their 2021 Roman Zinfandel showcases Scott Bilbro's mastery of Red Zin.

The Vina Robles Cabernet Sauvignon captures the style of Paso Robles Cab and then some. Quite rich, plush, and luxurious, it's my pick for the top US-made Cab value that we stock.

Joey Tensley knows the ups, downs, and all-arounds of Santa Barbara Syrah, and his latest release is pure, ripe, and pleasure-bent.

From the dreamy 2021 vintage, Marietta's Angeli Estate Zinfandel is in fine form.....like nearly perfect form....like 96 points.

It might sound like a stretch when I say Bouscatiere's white Cotes du Rhone is reminiscent of Condrieu, but I stand firmly behind that assessment...

I've been a longtime fan of the wines of Muga, one of the top addresses in Rioja. I never knew they made a Crianza, but their 2019 El Anden de la Estacion is splendid.

One of my top tips for finding extreme value wines is simple. Buy the entry-level wine(s) from top estates. That's exactly what you get with the 2021 Moris Farms Mandriolo Rosso, a pure and delightful blend of Sangiovese, Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, and Petit Verdot.

Argiolas is one of Sardinia's most oldest and most respected estates, and they craft one of the greatest Vermentinos on the planet. This is it! 

La Spinetta's Vermentino is one of those white wines I could just smell all day. It tastes just as good as it smells too!

The 2021 Caparsa Rosso di Caparsa is a wine I can't stop pondering. The essence of pure, traditional, and honest Sangiovese, it easily tops most Chianti Classicos, many of which cost a lot more.

With fall in the air, we put together a superb selection of French wines (2 whites, 1 rose, 3 reds) to make wine-buying as easy as possible. 

Talk about the perfect white wine for all seasons! La Chapelle du Bastion's Picpoul crushes its competitors with its balance of freshness and bold flavors.

It's another stellar vintage of the Vitallis Macon-Fuisse. This out-classes many Pouilly-Fuisses, but it comes to you at a much more attractive price. 

Many of you know and love Domaine Daulny's Sancerre, a wine we have stocked since we opened back in 2010. I'm here to tell you the '22 is a revelatory wine.

For those who love New and Old World Syrah and Shiraz, it doesn't get much better than Howard Park's Flint Rock bottling.

Piedmont and Value are rarely encountered in the same sentence, but they are in full force in the 2018 Lanot Langhe Rosso. We've featured this before, and I'm sure we'll feature it again. 

I am in love with the 2022 Adele Rouze Quincy, and I think it is the best vintage of this wine I've ever enjoyed. 

Decero does it again! Their 2019 Remolinos Vineyard Cab is one of the top Cab values in the world.
