Italian Treasure

Tua Rita’s 2010 Redigaffi


Do the ghosts of ancient Etruria see the wineries up and down the Livorno coast and shake their heads at the over-the-top glossiness? Or do they lament not having planted more vines themselves? It’s a beautiful area, dotted with ruins, though even those seem to be battling the spread of vineyards. While an important part of Tuscany, Bolgheri is known for their international varieties, with Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon being the most important plantings.

California Super-Value Restocked

Marietta Cellars’ Christo Rhône Blend


Chris Bilbro was one of California wine’s unsung heroes. He founded and grew Marietta Cellars into one of the preeminent producers of excellent value, honestly made California wine. Although his son Scot now runs the winery (Chris sadly passed away in 2019), their lineup is as good as it’s ever been—delicious, gutsy wines that deliver exceptional value at all prices.

We just restocked a customer favorite, the 2018 Christo Rhône Blend, rounding out our excellent selection of Marietta wines.

Pre-Arrivals from Selbach-Oster

Grand, Yet Affordable


Let’s cut to the chase: Selbach-Oster makes wine every bit as good as the ‘name’ producers like Prüm or Molitor, but because they aren’t quite as famous (and because Johannes Selbach isn’t a grand self-promoter) the wines are much less expensive than their peers. They represent some of the best buying opportunities for German wine lovers in the Mosel today. We’re excited to receive another drop of these charming wines in September. The allotment is unsurprisingly dominated by Riesling (including their delicious Sekt), but also includes one of the world’s best Pinot Blanc.
