Sampling Selection #1:
2022 Chatham Neighborhood Chardonnay
$11.99 on sale
The Chatham Neighborhood line-up of wines is a recent addition for us and we absolutely fell in love with all of them!
This is classic California Chardonnay with orchard fruit and a kiss of oak at the finish. Anyone drinking wines like Simi or Kendall Jackson will completely flip for this, especially at this price point!
"Chatham Neighborhood Chardonnay is a bright green-gold in the light. There are inviting scents of a peach orchard and vanilla on the nose. Each sip reveals layers of apricot, Meyer lemon and marzipan. There's a generous, round mouthfeel with light, toasty oak elements in the background. Food pairings: roasted chicken with lemon zest." - Winery

Sampling Selection #2:
2021 Chateau Saint Maur Excellence Rose Provence
$19.99 on sale
Château Saint Maur is the epitome of Provence Rosé and it has been flying off the shelves all Summer!
A stunning blend of Grenache, Syrah, Cinsault and Mourvedre that is extremely pale and light in color. This is everything we look for in a Provence Rosé and it puts wines like Whispering Angel and Miraval to shame!
93-94 Points Vert de Vin:
"This wine has a pale rose gold color with melon highlights. It is clear and shiny. The first nose is aromatic and fresh with minerality, slightly smoky and small fruits like apricot. With aeration, very ripe apricots emerge. There are also small iodized notes. We also manage to detect fine citrus notes such as pomelo zest and orange blossom. The tasting is fresh. The attack is frank with fruit and immediately minerality with a significant saline perception. We find apricot but also coconut milk and vegetal notes of garrigue. The mid-palate reveals very delicate touches of raspberry. The finish is still on this saline tension which makes your mouth water with fine notes of citrus and olive."
-------
Sampling Selection #3:
2019 Greenstone Gusto Shiraz Yarra Valley
$17.98 on sale
We simply love Australian Shiraz when it is done well and the folks at Greenstone hit it out of the park with this one!
Deep dark purple with lush fruit and a remarkably long finish. This checks all the boxes for Shiraz and at an amazing price!
93 Points Sam Kim, Wine Orbit:
"Youthfully fruited and instantly appealing, the wine shows black/blueberry, violet, hazelnut and vanilla notes on the nose. It's equally satisfying on the palate displaying excellent fruit purity and intensity, backed by silken texture and polished tannins. At its best: now to 2029."
-------
Sampling Selection #4:
2019 Izadi Rioja Reserva
$19.99 on sale
Bodegas Izadi has been making spectacular wines in Rioja for decades and this is a perfect example of the quality they are putting out.
Their Rioja Reserva consistently gets glowing reviews from the biggest names in wine and their 2019 is no different! Just check out what the critics are saying and come taste a true gem from Rioja!
94 Points James Suckling:
"An outstanding Rioja Reserva that has some fine plushness from the oak. Dark chocolate, cedar, dark spices and a hint of truffle to the fresh blackberries. Juicy and dusty with very firm yet dusty tannins on the fine-grained and full-bodied palate. Long, structured and well-knit. Drink or hold."
91 Points Wine Spectator:
"Well-balanced and silky on the palate, this classy red features a beam of ripe mulberry fruit, with creamy tannins and aromatic hints of dried flowers, crushed pine and sandalwood, followed by a plush finish. Drink now through 2029. 29,100 cases made, 7,000 cases imported. -AN"
90 Points Joaquin Hidalgo, Vinous Media:
"The 2019 Reserva is 100% Tempranillo from Villabuena, Samaniego and Ábalos, Rioja Alavesa. Aged 16 months in American and French oak barrels, this garnet wine unfolds herbal, balsamic and oak notes that soar over a cherry and strawberry core. Dry, rich and fairly liqueur-like, the warm palate offers fine-grained tannins and an overwhelming, lasting mouthfeel."

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!
