2023 Disznoko - Furmint Tokaji Dry
Furmint is the grape used to produce Hungary’s renowned sweet wine, Tokaji. When vinified dry, however, Furmint is capable of producing some very compelling white wine. This wine exhibits a bouquet of white flowers, grapefruit and pears. A refreshing texture gives way to expressive fruit on the palate and a lingering mineral finish. It will pair well with shellfish, white fishes, salads and picnic foods, but it also possesses the weight and profile to match with white meats and creamy pasta dishes as well. - Importer notes

2023 Do Ferreiro Albarino Cepas Vellas ( A-3 ) (750ml)
The famed Cepas Vellas Albariño from Do Ferreiro, one of Spain’s iconic white wines capable of long aging and improvement in bottle, is sourced from a single 1.5ha albariño vineyard in front of the winery in the Salnés Valley, planted in 1785. The historic vines are pergola trained and pruned with the Cazenave-Marcon method. Considered by many to be the apex expression of Rías Baixas albariño, Cepas Vellas now stands with the great white wines of the world. Properly cellared, Cepas Vellas is capable of improving for 10 to 20 years.
Gerardo Méndez of Do Ferreiro was part of the original group of 14 growers who elevated the potential of their region, as he and his father Francisco were integral in forming the original denomination of origin Rías Baixas in 1988. Do Ferreiro was born from incredible raw material and an uncompromising dedication to quality, a legacy that continues today with Gerardo’s son, Manuel, and daughter, Encarna, all working together to craft Do Ferreiro.
Vinification – Hand-harvested albariño grapes are first destemmed and cold-soaked with the skins for five hours before fermentation. Fermentation with native yeasts from the Cepas Vellas vineyard occurs in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks followed by 11 months aging on the lees without stirring.

2024 Domaine Barcelo - Vermentino VdP de l'Ile de Beaute (750ml)
2020 Domaine des Huards - Cour-Cheverny Blanc Romo
This is the new Romorantin, decidedly not what was generally found a generation ago (which tended to be an acid, austere wine often with oxidative notes), let alone what can be found today among the natty producers (likewise oxidative). This cuvée has a remarkable nose, akin to high-toned Riesling for some and Loire Chenin for others—a dense wine with layers of flavors reminiscent of apricots and baked apples and other autumn fruits. Bracing, lifted, long, and altogether distinctive. Vines average 35 years of age; the wine is raised in tank on its fine lees and bottled in the spring following harvest, usually before malolactic has a chance to take place

Appellation: Saumur AOP
Grapes: 100% Chenin Blanc

Soils/Terroir: From the ‘Les Rouères’ vineyard on sandy clay and limestone soils.
Farming: Practicing Organic
Harvest: Hand harvested

The fermentation began spontaneously using only the naturally occurring indigenous yeasts. No battonage is done and the wine completes malolactic fermentation.
Maturation: Aged 12 months in used 400L French oak barrels (40%), and a new 12hl Vicard oak vat. 1 month before bottling the juice was transferred to stainless-steel tanks and a low dose of sulfur added.

2023 Domaine Mouton - Condrieu Cote Bonnette (750ml)
Our two places called Côte Bonnette and Côte Chatillon are located in the very village of Condrieu. The sunny slopes, the airy hillsides and the granite soils make it possible to reach full maturity, without excess. -Winery notes
This is a superb condireu at a pretty amazing price point!
The wines of Domaine Mouton are one of our latest discoveries. We are pretty sure we are the only shop in the USA that carries these wines. A small family run Domaine based in Condrieu, they own some really nice vineyard plots and have a very talented winemaker. Buy these while they still are under the radar!
