Prestige Des Sacres Champagne, Brut $49.99
Our Brut Prestige has a pale golden dress. Its elegant, regular effervescence gives a beautiful stream of bubbles.
The first nose immediately offers biscuit and fruity flavours (pear and plum). 
A fresh and sparkling attack, followed by a beautiful depth giving a creamy sensation on the palate.
The finish is appetizing, complex and long with a tart sensation and very refreshing notes, characteristic of our terroir.

1/3 Chardonnay; 1/3 Pinot Noir; 1/3 Pinot Meunier

Benziner Chardonnay, Reserve $34.99
Voted best winery in Sonoma, Benziger makes a variety of types of Red, White and Rosé wine. 
All certified sustainable, organic or biodynamic.
Sourced from the Pear Block within the Home Ranch of Sangiacomo Vineyard.
The expertly executed organic farming practice of this vineyardamplifies the distinctive character and intensity of the grapes.
We handled this wine with great tenderness and care and minimum intervention.


Belle Glos Pinot Noir, Las Alturas $49.99
Intense ruby red in color, this wine is delightfully complex rich and layered.  
Aromas of currant, warm blackberry and a touch of black licorice, open up to a palate that is pure and supple
with ripe plum, wild berries and exotic spices.
The finish is lengthy and fullling, displaying ripe tannins, balanced acidity and a hint of mocha.
- Joseph Wagner, Owner and Winemaker

More structured than a typical Pinot Noir with a dark fruit core, concentrated ruby color, with raspberry and wild blackberry fruit aromas and notes of earthiness. The palate is supple and layered with exotic spices, a rich meatiness, plum and cherry, with ripe tannins.
Las Alturas, meaning “the heights”, is planted at one of the highest vineyard sites in the Santa Lucia Highlands.
At this elevation, the sunny but very cool climate creates a wine with intense hallmarks of this coastal region:
robust, expressive, full-bodied and balanced with a firm acidity.


Blue Rock "Baby Blue" Cabernet Sauvignon, Sonoma $32.99
This is one of only two wine clubs that I belong to. You should always have some in your cellar!
Baby Blue is Blue Rock’s second Cabernet Sauvignon and is also deserving of serious attention.
Released for the first time in 2006, Baby Blue is somewhat lighter and less concentrated than the regular bottling.
It offers a dark ruby color with ripe black fruit aromas and flavors with excellent purity and extraction.


Turnbull Cabernet Sauvignon, Napa Valley $59.99
This wine captures the essence of where Turnbull farms in the Napa Valley. A wine of integrity, it’s a blend that is made to share at the family table. A quintessential dirt to bottle wine that’s approachable at release and downright delicious.Dusted red & black fruit tones coalesce into a wide expanse of detailed vibrancy. A symbiotic unfolding of raspberry reduction, Rainier cherry, and toasted bread segue into a fresh, brilliantly structured finish. Truly symphonic in its progression of flavor.

Blend: 90% Cabernet Sauvignon, 8% Merlot, 1% Cabernet Franc, 0.5% Petit Verdot, 0.5% Malbec

"Fresh blackcurrants, licorice, cut grass and oyster shell.
Medium body, fresh acidity and a fruity finish. Drink now or hold."
 - James Suckling 90 points

"Juicy, round and silky, this is an approachable, relatively light-bodied wine that doesn't shirk on underlying brawn.
Moderate structure maintains a fresh, focused likability as slightly spicy oak hits hardest and most pleasantly on the finish."

Two Roads Hay-Z-Boy Juicy, 4 pack 16 oz. $18.99
Boy, oh boy, we've created one hazy juicy IPA!
Hay-Z-Boy is a 7% cloudy, golden IPA that's packed with tropical fruit, citrus and earthy aromas - and a subtle sweetness and bitterness that's sure to satisfy in every sip!
Perfect for those lazy, hazy, crazy days when you need to kick back -- and go a little hazy!
