Just Landed: NEW Arrivals

We'll never be satisfied.
We are always on the lookout for the next great find. We scour various wine publications and talk to wineries, importers and suppliers for leads - and then the really hard work begins: we taste wines with ratings of 85 to 100, selecting only the best for the honor of a place on our shelves - and ultimately in your glass.

Marlborough, on New Zealand's south island, is synonymous with Sauvignon Blanc. If you're looking for crisp and refreshing citrus acidity, mellow grassy notes and "slatey" minerals, then look no further. This is your choice for sushi, salads and relaxing afternoons -- at a great price!

This seriously beautiful un-oaked Chardonnay is nicely balanced with a full body, a creamy texture, vibrant acidity as well as tasty lemon and orange notes. No food needed here - though a bowl of Macadamia nuts is quite a great match!

The grapes for this terrific Malbec come from the highest altitude (8,200 feet!), biodynamic old vines in the world, nestled in Argentina's far northwest province of Salta. Wide temperature ranges, long and dry growing seasons, and low yields make for fruit of unparalleled quality and concentration. Enjoy this with a juicy steak!

The nose is all spice and savory dark and red berries. The palate is full and textured with a wonderful explosion of spicy dark fruits, dried citrus zest and integrated oak all combining beautifully with an abundance of soft sweet tannins. The Viognier produces lively lifted aromatics of light citrus conserve with great mid-palate texture.
