2022 Chemistry Pinot Noir – Rated 91 Points by James Suckling
What It Tastes Like: Imagine biting into a bowl of ripe cherries with a sprinkle of black pepper and a buttery croissant on the side. This Pinot is silky, fruity, and just a little spicy—exactly what you want when you're curling up on the couch or hosting a casual dinner.
Perfect With: Roast chicken, mushroom risotto, or a charcuterie board with soft cheeses. It's also great with salmon if you're feeling fancy.
Why It's Worth It: A 91-point wine for under $16? That's the Argonaut difference.
Was $20.99, now only $15.99.
2017 Óscar Tobía Rioja Reserva
What It Tastes Like: This Spanish beauty is like drinking a warm campfire story—woodsy, rich, and a little mysterious. Give it 25 minutes to breathe, and you'll get blackberry pie, espresso, cherry cola, and a hint of rhubarb. The tannins practically melt on your tongue.
Perfect With: Colorado lamb chops, gazpacho, or a corn and cotija dip. Trust us—it's magic.
Why It's Worth It: A staff favorite for a reason. This is a $35+ wine you're getting for $21. Worth the trip alone.
Was $35.99, now only $20.99.
2023 Bourg La Champs Ardèche Pinot Noir
What It Tastes Like: Smooth, surprising, and seriously drinkable. This Southern French Pinot (yes, France makes Pinot outside Burgundy!) is all juicy cherry, soft spice, and a whisper of Mediterranean herbs. It's the kind of wine that makes a Tuesday feel like a celebration.
Perfect With: Creamy brie, charcuterie, or pan-seared salmon. Also fantastic with roasted chicken.
Why It's Worth It: A hidden gem at a price that makes trying something new totally risk-free.
Was $19.99, now only $11.99.
Monmousseau Brut Crémant de Loire Cuvée Ciselée - Rated 95 Points by Decanter

Perfect With: Berries and cream, smoked salmon dip, fried calamari, or oysters.
Why It's Worth It: A 95-point sparkling wine for under $18? We did the tasting—you just pop the cork.

2023 Roaming Dog Rosé
What It Tastes Like: Bright, juicy, and ridiculously easy to drink. Think fresh strawberries, raspberries, and cherries with a crisp, refreshing finish. It's summer in a bottle—even in February.
Perfect With: Brunch, picnics, grilled shrimp, or literally anything. This is the "always works" wine.
Why It's Worth It: At $6.99, this is the easiest win in the store. Stock up.

2023 Terres de Galets Côtes-du-Rhône White
What It Tastes Like: Stone fruit, floral notes, and crisp freshness. This French white is balanced, lively, and begging to be served ice-cold on a sunny afternoon (or wishful February evening).
Perfect With: Grilled white fish, seafood pasta, roasted chicken, or tangy goat cheese.
Why It's Worth It: A versatile white that works for weeknights and dinner parties alike—at a price that lets you buy two.

2020 Molino del Piano Brunello di Montalcino
What It Tastes Like: Old-world elegance in a glass. This rustic Italian red opens with dried figs and prunes, then delivers cranberries, black cherry cola, tobacco, and a whisper of smoke. The tannins have softened beautifully—this is drinking really well right now.
Perfect With: Pasta puttanesca, chicken cacciatore, or wedges of aged Romano cheese.
Why It's Worth It: Brunello under $35 is rare. Brunello this good at this price? That's Argonaut.
Was $49.99, now only $31.99.
2024 Torneo Malbec Reserve
What It Tastes Like: Rich, bold, and over-the-top delicious. Cedar, campfire smoke, and black walnuts greet you, followed by blackberries, blueberries, green peppercorns, and a chocolate-plum finish. This Mendoza Malbec absolutely crushes at this price.
Perfect With: Korean short ribs, Delmonico steak with chimichurri, or a pepper jack grilled cheese.
Why It's Worth It: Approachable enough for casual drinkers, but layered and interesting enough for wine geeks to enjoy.
Was $18.99, now only $10.99.
2024 Rouvalis Aigialeia Assyrtiko
What It Tastes Like: Crisp, clean, and absolutely refreshing. This Greek white delivers bright lemon, citrus blossom, and a stony minerality that practically tastes like the ocean breeze. It's got that signature Assyrtiko salinity and elegance—think Santorini vibes without the Santorini price tag.
Perfect With: Grilled octopus, Greek salad, fresh oysters, or lemony pasta with herbs. It's also stunning with feta and olives.
Why It's Worth It: A refined, mineral-driven Greek white for under $20? This is the kind of discovery that makes wine fun again.
Was $29.99, now only $19.99.
2024 Quinta do Covão Rosé
What It Tastes Like: Plot twist: Portugal's making rosé now, and it's a total showstopper. Made from Touriga Nacional (yes, the same grape that makes Port), this ruby-colored beauty is bursting with tart cherries and cranberry-apple vibes. It's got that zippy, wake-up-your-taste-buds acidity paired with watermelon, raspberries, and stone fruit.
Perfect With: Need a wine for your spicy black bean burger or that jalapeño goat cheese you've been hoarding? This is your new best friend.
Why It's Worth It: Snag it for $13.99 and prepare for rosé all day... even in February.
