Gut Oggau Maskerade Weiss
$43.99
Created by Eduard and Stephanie Tscheppe in 2007, Gut Oggau is a leader in the movement towards sustainable and natural winemaking in Austria's Burgenland wine region. Working with vines that haven't seen pesticides or chemical treatments for over 20 years, they are able to bottle wines with incredible life and vigour.
"Stephanie and Eduard acquired some new vineyards three years ago and are working tirelessly to convert them to biodynamics. Until then, they don’t believe the wines will show quite the same depth of personality, so they’ve kept the characters on the labels masked, and bottled in 1L bottles for early consumption. This wine is made from a co-planting of Gruner Veltliner, Weissburgunder, and Welschriesling. The grapes spend a short time macerating on skins in stainless steel before being pressed off. It finishes fermentation in stainless steel before being bottled without fining, filtration, or sulphur."
Cabasse Blanc
$33.99
The winery and estate sit between the towns of Séguret and Sablet, a half-hour drive from iconic Châteauneuf-du-Pape. Under vine for over 600 years, the property has been lovingly cared for by the Baudry family since 2012. Approximately 15 sustainably-farmed hectares in the towns of Séguret, Sablet and Gigondas are planted with Syrah, Grenache, Mourvèdre, Counoise, Carignan, Clairette and other local white varieties. These are some of only 16 Southern Rhône communes which may use their name along with the Côtes-du-Rhône Villages appellation. The small plots are surrounded by hedges and trees that protect the vines from the cold Mistral which can blow violently from the north. The Mediterranean climate assures plenty of warmth and sunshine during the growing season, but the nearby sea and stiff evening breeze ensure a broad diurnal shift that retains acidity and freshness in the wines. The pebbled soils are a mix of clay, sand and, most importantly, limestone. Great value wines!
