Coca i Fito Xalar Vermut
$37.99
Vermut - the Spanish word for vermouth - is wildly popular in Spain, with vermut bars around every bend in the major cities. This delicious vermouth is the result of four years of research, led by oenologists Toni Coca and Sílvia Pujol.
This is white vermouth with a Mediterranean character, made from fortified white Grenache wine and local aromatic plants (rosemary, thyme and fennel), balsamic plants (green anise, savoury, laurel...), macerated citrus skins (lemon, orange), roots (gentian, angelica, licorice ...), spices (cinnamon, cloves, turmeric...), and flowers (chamomile, elder, maiden...). In total, more than 30 different plants, aromatics and spices bring complexity, freshness, delicacy, a hint of bitterness, persistence and unique character.

Tolo do Xisto Ribeira Sacra Mencia
$33.99
Famous for producing complex, floral wines made from Mencía, Ribeira Sacra is probably Galicia’s second-best-known wine region, behind Rias Baixas. Tolo do Xisto is a new project from the team at one of our favourite Spanish wineries, Coca i Fitó, with the Galician winemaker Andrea Obenza. The name Tolo do Xisto means "mad about slate". The winemaking process strives to transmit the mineral essence of the area through the different soils along the Sil River banks. A mineral, almost salty wine, is achieved which is aromatic, with good acidity. Penetrating smooth tannins, acidic red fruit, balsamic notes, and spices, but above all, it is very delicate with a long finish. This wine is light enough to enjoy with grilled fish like salmon or tuna. Terrific with white meats it is also one you'll enjoy on its own when you don't want something too heavy.
Cosimo Taurino Notarpanaro
$36.99
Taking its name from the farm where the Taurino family started making wine, The Notarpanaro is made entirely from the Negroamaro grape. The grapes come from a single 25 hectare plot and the resulting wine is aged for two years in concrete tanks first, followed by a further half a year refill barriques before bottling. Here is what Wine Enthusiast has to say about the 2010 vintage:
"This well-priced, aged wine offers aromas of brandied cherries, spiced game and herbs on the nose. Its round feel and soft tannins make it entirely approachable to drink on its own, while its savory palate and graphite finish make it a perfect accompaniment to braised lamb or duck."

Marie Courtin Prestance
$239.99
The champagnes from Marie-Courtin are truly something special. An ultra-fine, elegant style with amazing freshness. Delicate and racy, yet absolutely unique in style thanks in part to biodynamic viticulture. All her grapes are grown in a single plot of 2.5 hectares, which is also the total size of the domain that Dominique Moreau founded in 2000. Because all her wines come from a single vineyard, she has decided to emphasize the differences in champagnes through vinification. There are wines matured in barrique, amphorae, enamel tanks and one without sulfur. All come from the 2.5 hectares of single vineyard on the Kimmeridge marl soil of the Soden, on the Côte des Bar. Winemaker Dominique Moreau, who named the estate after her grandmother, is a master of purism.
