Saint Damien's 2021 Gigondas will prove to be a hot ticket item, as it is the only bottling they produced for the year.

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.

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.

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!

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. 

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. 

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

Domaine Rouge Bleu, though fairly new on the secene, is an estate on a mission. That mission is to craft incredibly delicious wines that drink way above their humble price points.

When I got word that Voirin Jumel's Grand Cru Champagne was taking a price increase in a couple of weeks, I bought a bunch! 

This is without a doubt the best Sauvignon Blanc for the money I've tasted in a long time. It will appeal to all lovers of the grape, but it will also appeal to those who like their Sauvignon Blancs on the richer side.

While there's still a bit of Sancerre in the market, supplies are dwindling. I've found the fix for that, and it's the Via Alpina Sauvignon Blanc.

Vilatte's Bordeaux Blanc is everything I look for in a white and more! Plump, juicy, and superbly satisfying, it is one of the best white wine deals I've encountered in some time.
