Sampling Selection #1:
2022 Tenimenti D'alessandro Igt Viognier
$19.99 on sale
This Tuscan Viognier checks all the varietal boxes and is a true pleasure to drink!
Those unfamiliar with Viognier are going to fall in love with this! Extremely floral with well-balanced acidity, crispness and bright aromatics.
This is a fun white wine that is a true crowd-pleaser!
91 Points Eric Guido, Vinous Media:
"The 2022 Viognier Bianco is spicy, blending dusty dried flowers and nectarine with hints of ground ginger and lemon zest. This is soft and round, with a salty core of minerality and zesty acidity that adds a reverberation of tension, further enhanced by tart green apple fruit. It finishes with medium length and a citrus tinge that lingers, leaving the palate perfectly reset for another sip."
91 Points James Suckling:
"Ripe apricots, glazed lemons, praline and crushed walnuts on the nose. Crushed stones, too. Medium-bodied with crisp, lemony acidity cutting through. Flavorful and refreshing in the finish. From organically grown grapes. Drink now"
-------
Sampling Selection #2:
2023 Domaine Chene Bourgogne Blanc Chardonnay
$29.99 on sale
Stunning White Burgundy at a remarkable price, what's not to love? This will become every Chardonnay drinker's new go-to once they try it!
Well-balanced flavors of orchard fruit balanced by bright acidity and a touch of oak in the finish.
This is the perfect Chardonnay to stock up on and enjoy the rest of the year!
91 Points International Wine Report:
"The 2023 Bourgogne Chardonnay delivers aromas and flavors of yellow apples, pears and vanilla. This wine is nicely balanced with a round core that is underlined by a lovely touch of acidity to balance it out. This Chardonnay is drinking beautifully now."
-------
Sampling Selection #3:
2021 Morande Vitis Unica Pinot Noir
$15.99 on sale
The Vitis Unica comes from the El Ensueño estate in the cold climate area of Lo Ovalle in the Casablanca Valley. This cold climate valley produces some of the best wines in Chile.
Easy drinking, and super smooth with incredible fruit and a long 60+ second finish, this is the kind of Pinot Noir to buy by the case ... especially at this price!
92 Points James Suckling:
"There is a bit of chalkiness to the strawberries, very ripe cherries and cranberries. Some grapefruit and herbs, too. Juicy, medium-bodied palate with firm and fresh tannins and a very appetizing finish. An excellent pinot from Casablanca. Drink now."
91 Points Joaquín Hidalgo, Vinous Media:
"The 2021 Pinot Noir Vitis Unica from Casablanca was aged for 12 months with 80% in French foudres and 20% in oak barrels. Ruby red in the glass. The tart, expressive nose features sour cherry, damp earth and roses. It’s austere but fairly lively in the mouth with mild, grippy tannins that lend depth. A refreshing Pinot."
-------
Sampling Selection #4:
2022 Edaphos Poor Ranch Syrah
$19.99 on sale
If you need a go-to red wine for the rest of this BBQ season, look no further! We loved this Syrah and you will too!
If you're a fan of Northern Rhone reds, you'll enjoy this as the pepper, blueberry and exotic flavors of the region come through on this red.
93 Points Antonio Galloni, vinous:
"The 2022 Syrah Poor Ranch Vineyard, from a site in Mendocino, is terrific. Black pepper, lavender, mint, plum and blueberry are beautifully delineated. This classy, mid-weight Syrah is impeccable in its balance of cool-climate savoriness and a mid-weight structure."

This Week's Gourmet Department Highlights!
- Elixia Strawberry Lemonade & Plain Lemonade -
$3.50 each
 This product would be awesome on its own or as a mixer!
This Wild Strawberry French classic lemonade is made from water of the Jura Mountains, with natural flavors, and pure cane sugar. The flavor is perfectly balanced and every sip is as satisfying as the next! The light pink color makes a beautiful presentation on the brunch table.
Elixir is the oldest lemonade factory in France. Founded in 1856 by Faustin Girardet, their lemonade company has maintained tradition and quality throughout its history. In 2000, the sixth generation took the reins: new packaging, and an updated image but maintained an extraordinary legacy of their family enterprise: the traditional bronze and copper mixing and bottling equipment, the manual production and quality control and traditional family recipes.
-------
- Morbier -
$22.99/lb
Easily recognized by a dark line of ash cutting through its center, Morbier is a nutty, creamy cheese originating from the Jura Mountains.
Its appearance has roots in a preservation technique once used by French cheesemakers. Leftover curds were saved overnight and topped with ash to keep flies away, then topped with more curds the next day. The layer of ash created Morbier’s signature center stripe, and it remains today.
This semi-soft, pungent cheese pairs best with fresh bread and a dollop of Dijon mustard.
-------
- Can Bech Figues -
$7.99 each
Preserved figs, from their own harvest, are the specialty of Can Bech; the jewel of the house. Whole preserved figs with a thick syrup are ideal for giving a special touch to any dish.
CanBech recommends serving this with mascarpone ice cream, cream, fresh cheese, or cottage cheese, and decorating it with its own syrup. It is also perfect for pairing with foie gras, cheese, or adding to a salad.
***We will be sampling Figs in Syrup with Nasto's Vanilla Gelato ($7.99) in Gourmet Library this Saturday!***

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!
