Molitor Pinot Noir Klosterberg
$42.99
Since 1984, Markus Molitor has pursued a clear vision: to bring the great potential of the Mosel back to life – with distinctive wines that precisely reflect the interplay of vintage, ripeness, and origin. Meticulous manual work, selective harvesting, respect for grape and terroir, and the renunciation of standardizing aids define his winery’s philosophy.
The vineyard sites have ranked among the finest on the Mosel and Saar for centuries. Steep slopes, diverse slate formations, and the finest microclimates form the foundation for authentic, site-typical Mosel wines. Each wine reveals its origin, and every bottle stands for an uncompromising pursuit of balance, depth, expression, and structure.
Therianthropy Cabernet Franc
$43.99
Therianthropy is the mythical process of shapeshifting, which is another way to view turning nature into wine.

The group of wine industry veterans source grapes from sustainable, organically farmed vineyards across Ontario for an adventurous set of low-intervention wines. All the ferments are natural, they don’t employ fining or filtration, and there are low to no sulphur additions throughout. They also finish their bottles with recyclable plant-based composite corks, and top with an organic beeswax button.

They beautifully celebrate the full fruit and deep texture of cabernet franc and along with his marvellous rosé demonstrate a light hand that allows his wines to develop their own unique character.
Barge Cote Rotie

No chemicals are used, soils are painstakingly hand-ploughed, green manure and cover crops are sown, sheep are roaming free in winter, and the domaine has been certified organic since 2022.

For 6 generations, the Jaboulet family has been producing wines in the Côtes-Du-Rhone.

Located in the northern Rhone Valley, about one mile south of Tain l'Hermitage, the domain was founded in 2006. Philippe and Vincent retained about 13 hectares of family vineyards, including, first of all, the site "Talaber", which was renamed "Nouvelaire", which means "new era".

$18.74
The Pita family has a long history in Spain's Rueda region, a DO dedicated solely to white wine. The dominant variety in the region is Verdejo, a grape that offers crisp citrusy white wines reminiscent of Sauvignon Blanc without the resounding grassiness.

Selbach Alte Reben Riesling
$54.99
The ambitiousness of Johannes Selbach has made this estate the region’s most prominent rising star. Since 1989, always among the very best wines in this collection, and 2001 is no exception. Johannes describes his style: “You may have noticed our wines are a bit drier the last two vintages than they used to be,” said Johannes Selbach. “We know how to make reductive fruit-bombs that get high scores and stand out in big tastings,” he continued, “but the problem is everyone writes about those wines but nobody drinks them. We want to make wines for food, that people can use in their everyday lives.” The 2020 Alte Reben is juicy and bursting with stone fruits and citrus and a bottle tends to dissapear quickly.
