Sampling Selection #1:
2022 Castello Di Montepo Je T Rose
$24.99 on sale
Made by the Biondi Santi family, one of the most premium wine producers in the world, this wine is astonishingly complex & is something that needs to be tried to believe.
This is a Rose you need to have all year long. There is always a perfect time to drink this, and for those of you who want to have some Rose around during the holiday season as well as next summer and beyond.
THIS is the wine to buy as it will age like a fine Bandol Rose and leave everyone who tries it absolutely speechless!
90 Points Monica Larner, Robert Parker's Wine Advocate:
"With a new generation at the helm of the winery, this is very much a project identified with the young Tancredi Biondi Santi. This 2022 JeT Rosé is a Sangiovese-based rosato made with the special clones farmed at this Maremma estate. The vines are at a cool 520 meters in elevation and measure 12 hectares. However, there are a couple of rows of Cabernet Sauvignon at this site that are not used in this wine. This luminous expression shows cassis, wild berry and grapefruit. There are some dusty mineral notes and a hint of sweetness on the easy close. The first vintage produced was 2019."

Sampling Selection #2:
2022 Pauletts Polish Hill Riesling Clare Valley
$19.99 on sale
We are always looking for the next great dry Riesling at an affordable price, and we've found the perfect one for this Fall!
Australia's Clare Valley is quickly becoming one of the top-growing regions to produce fantastic Riesling and this bottling from the Polish Hill River is one of our favorites!
Extreme aromas of intense citrus, green apple and floral nuances lead into a palate driven by bright citrus acidity and a minerally lingering finish.
96 Points The Real Review:
"Very light straw-yellow with a whiff of minerally edginess, dried herbs and dried flowers, a faint suggestion of acetone, then a lemon-juicy palate that is generous and expansive at the same time as it retains its tautness and youthful reserve. There's a mandarin-like juiciness on the back-palate and finish, the aftertaste cleansingly dry. In all, a really delicious riesling that is already highly enjoyable and has a bright future."
-------
Sampling Selection #3:
2019 Sodhani Estate Napa Cabernet Sauvignon
This estate-bottled Cabernet Sauvignon blew us away! Every fan of big, bold Napa Cabernet will thoroughly enjoy this!
Dark and complex fruit is balanced by structured tannins in a Cabernet Sauvignon that is ready to drink now but can also last many years in the cellar!
Stock up on this one!
94 Points Jeb Dunnuck:
"Starting with the 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Estate, it’s a no-brainer purchase that offers loads of ripe darker, currant-like fruits as well as textbook Cabernet tobacco and graphite. More forward, supple, and ready to go compared to the Reserve, it’s medium to full-bodied, balanced, and has beautiful richness as well as elegance. Drink it over the coming decade."
-------
Sampling Selection #4:
2019 Podere Brizio Brunello Di Montalcino
$59.99 on sale
2019 was a blockbuster vintage in Tuscany but particularly great in Montalcino.
Brunello di Montalcino is our top-selling type of Italian wine and this one checks all the boxes in what we look for!
Podere Brizio received 2 massive ratings from a couple of the toughest critics in Italian wine and once you taste it you will understand why!
95 Points Wine Spectator:
"Black cherry, blackberry, plum, violet and mineral flavors are the hallmarks of this pure, dense and robust red, which is squarely in the fruity camp, yet bumps up against pointed tannins on the finish. The lasting impression is both fruit and tannins, so this should work itself out in a few years. Best from 2027 through 2043. 3,000 cases made, 1,600 cases imported. -BS"
94+ Points Monica Larner, Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
"The organic Podere Brizio 2019 Brunello di Montalcino (in a heavy glass bottle) shows pretty aromas of crushed stone, dried raspberry, redcurrant, cherry cola and blue flower. The elegance and finer qualities of this wine are what stand out most, and you get pretty definition and sharpness along the way. The finish is lean, tonic, lifted and bright. Some 38,000 bottles were made. Great job."

This Week's Gourmet Department Highlights!
- Cultured Butter -
$9.99 each
Cultured butter, what is it?
In short, it’s butter made in the European style by adding live active cultures to cream before churning, similar to cheese or yogurt.
Cultured butter is tangier and richer than your everyday stick butter, with a taste reminiscent of cheese. That’s because cultured butter and cheese share a critical first step–the addition of beneficial live bacteria (the ‘culture’ in cultured butter).
This weekend we will dive into 3 flavors: Maple, Seaweed, and Espelette Pepper, served at room temperature with a Balthazar baguette!
-------
- Castelbelbo -
$23.99/lb
Castelbelbo is a soft, creamy cheese made from cow's milk, sheep's milk and goat's milk.
Produced by Caseificio dell’Alta Langa in the Piedmonte region of Italy, this cheese has an edible white rind, and a white-colored paste, which matures into a straw-yellow color.
Castelbelbo is an aromatic cheese with a milky flavor and hints of flowers and cut grass.
A Blanc de Blanc would be a nice match for Castelbelbo, providing a crisp contrast to its supple texture and not masking its subtlety.
-------
- Los Palacios Chorizo Iberico -
$11.99 each
From the artisans at Fermín comes this rich, flavorful Ibérico morcilla.
This all-natural black sausage can be sliced and grilled until crispy and served with fresh bread or fried eggs. It adds wonderful flavor to classic stews from Spain.
Fresh pumpkin and onions add texture and moisture, while smoked paprika and oregano bring a pungent aroma and flavor.
It has a deep, rich flavor that is surprisingly mild and approachable.

Wine Talk Wednesday is back!
If you have never attended Wine Talk Wednesday in the past, you've been missing out.
To give you a brief breakdown of what WTW is, it's an in-store wine sampling and seminar held at our physical store in Springfield, NJ.
While sampling wine is by far the best part, we also provide a fun educational side to the wine sampling that helps our customers understand the history, winemaking and the style of the particular wine in front of them.
You may say to yourself, "WOW this is amazing", but what's even better is that it's ALL FREE.
We kindly ask you to RSVP so we can gauge how many people we will be hosting!
