Le Puy Emilien Bordeaux
$56.99
The estate is situated on the same plateau as Saint Emilion and Pomerol and sits on the second highest point in the Gironde at 110 meters above sea level (approximately 350 feet). The vineyards are planted to a number of red varieties, including Merlot (85%), Cabernet Sauvignon (6%), Cabernet Franc (7%) along with a touch of Malbec and Carmenère. The exclusive white variety is Semillon. The soil type varies but is principally a mix of clay, silex and limestone, with very high acidity levels. The average age of the vines is 50 years and no synthetic treatments have ever been used at the estate, which is certified biodynamic. Harvest is manual, the grapes are entirely destemmed and the cuvaison is long, continuing for two to four weeks. Only indigenous yeast is utilized, no chapitalisation is done nor is SO2 used during the fermentation. The “elevage” of the Le Puy wines is done according to the lunar rhythm. The two essential red cuvées of the estate, “Emilien” and “Barthelemy” are raised in barrel for 24 months. The wines are neither fined nor filtered before bottling. Jean-Pierre Amoreau and his son, Pascal, oversee the vineyards and vinification.

PYCM Bourgogne Rose de Pinot Noir

Pierre-Yves Colin was born into the wine industry. His father, Marc Colin, who is a famed Burgundy producer himself, started Pierre’s winemaker career in 1994, when he asked him to work at the family’s domain. In 2005, he switched things up by creating his own wines from inherited vineyards. Since then, he has rapidly become of the top Burgundy producers using larger demi-muid barrels and eschewing the use of battonnage, makes each one of his bottlings a clear expression of its terroir and a study in mineral-driven Chardonnay. His wines get better and better with each vintage and so it's easy to say that he is not only one of the top domaines in Chassagne, this is one of the great winemakers and domaines in the world.
Robert Keenan Napa Valley Cabernet Sauv
$124.99
A true Napa Cabernet! This wine is an explosion of character, with elements of wild summer berries, pepper, a touch of oak spices, and a smooth, lingering finish. It's smooth, yet bold, and is just simply an incredible bottle of wine. We would recommend ageing this wine for 5 or so years, but it's also delightful now. We would recommend serving this wine with a beef dish that been cooked low and slow (something like stew), or with a beautiful Brisket.
"The 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon is deep garnet-purple colored with a plum, cassis and baked berries nose with violets, cedar, cigars and earth. The medium to full-bodied mouth is firm and grainy with decent concentration and an earthy finish”- Wine Advocate 90 points
