Sampling Selection #1:
2023 Glatzer Gruner Veltliner Carnuntum Dac
$16.99 on sale
Carnuntum is an ancient region in Austria located just southeast of Vienna.  This is where Walter Glatzer and his family are producing world-class organic wines that are true crowd-pleasers.
The 2023 Gruner Veltliner is going to knock the socks off of every white wine fan.
Medium-bodied and amazingly fresh with bright citrus notes and a slightly peppery finish, this is the perfect white to enjoy any time!
"Walter Glatzer is producing classic Grüner Veltliners. Medium weight with loads of green herbs and white pepper, this stainless steel fermented Grüner is bright and refreshing. Certified Organic and certifiably delicious!" -Importer

Sampling Selection #2:
2019 Armstrong Family Winery Cabernet Sauvignon Hidden Windows
$49.99 on sale
A large portion of this Cabernet Sauvignon comes from the highly sought-after Discovery Vineyard in Washington's Horse Heaven Hills. This vineyard is producing some of the best fruit in the state and the 2019 Armstrong is a perfect example of the quality!

We were blown away by the rich and full-bodied nature of this wine. Classic dark flavors of tobacco and dark fruit are abundant and this is truly a Cabernet drinker's wine!
Everyone who likes a big and bold Cab needs to give this a try and grab as much as they can!
91 Points Jeb Dunnuck:
"Even more Cabernet Sauvignon-heavy, the 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Hidden Windows (90% Cabernet Sauvignon and 10% Merlot) offers a darker, slightly more earthy, herbal style as well as classic notes of tobacco, chocolate, and assorted spicy nuances. It's rich, medium to full-bodied, and mouth-filling, with a terrific mid-palate as well as velvety tannins. It too will keep for 10-15 years."
-------
Sampling Selection #3:
2021 J. Wright Pinot Noir Eola Amity Hills
$24.99 on sale
The Willamette Valley in Oregon is solidified as a destination for stunning Pinot Noir and there may not be an AVA better than the Eola-Amity Hills!
J. Wright focuses on small lot wines that truly showcase the sense of terroir and varietal purity.
The 2021 Pinot Noir is exactly what it should be, pure Pinot Noir with bright fruit and a nuanced floral finish that screams "Willamette Valley".
93 Points James Suckling:
"Attractive aromas of red and blue fruit with violets, hibiscus and hints of red spices. Medium-bodied with polished, compact tannins and a velvety texture. Juicy and delicious. Drink or hold."
-------
Sampling Selection #4:
2020 Tenuta Le Colonne Bolgheri Superiore
$49.99 on sale
Tenuta Le Colonne is located in Donoratico, the southernmost part of the Bolgheri appellation that overlooks the sea. This is just a 15-minute drive south from world-renowned winery Tenuta San Guido where Sassicaia is grown and produced.

This is a 70/30 blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc that will blow you away!
With multiple 94-point scores from some of the toughest critics, this is an opportunity you can't miss!
94 Points Wine Spectator:
"Intense and complex, this red offers a mix of lavender, black currant, plum, iron and wild herb aromas and flavors. Lively acidity keeps this focused, while firm, ripe tannins leave a pleasant grip on the lingering finish. Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc. Best from 2026 through 2040. 3,700 cases made, 1,000 cases imported."
94 Points Monica Larner, Robert Parker's Wine Advocate:
"The organic Tenuta le Colonne 2020 Bolgheri Superiore (in a heavy glass bottle) shows sweet-smelling cherry and Jolly Rancher with cedar oak and spice. The wine is full-bodied to be sure, with hints of clove and peppermint to close. The hot-vintage fruit feels rich but not especially complex. This is a very generous blend of 70% Cabernet Sauvignon and 30% Cabernet Franc. Production is 45,000 bottles."
