2020 Chateau Moulin de Mallett – Rated 90 points Wine Enthusiast - Here is a densely packed wine with firm tannins and a ripe structure. It has a ripe character from the black fruits. Drink from 2023. Was $19.99, now $10.99.
2019 Chronology Red - Staff Comments: Sumptuous! A beautiful blend of 9 grapes from Napa Valley. This wine is almost flawless! Chocolate covered cherries, rich raspberries, Almond bark, and notes of black pepper. Full bodied and unctuous. This is perfect for Prime Rib with horseradish sauce, salume with soft cheeses and good friends. Well worth the price, we wanted more! Was $34.99, now $19.99.
2022 Villa Locatelli Cabernet Franc - Cabernet Franc has thrived in Friuli’s vineyards for over 200 years, thanks to the region's cool climate and rocky soils. This Villa Locatelli Angoris Cabernet Franc boasts herbaceous notes like those from the Loire Valley but with a brighter, fruitier profile and none of the earthy "barnyard" characteristics. It's lighter and more vibrant than its Californian counterparts, making it a perfect match for roasted lamb with rosemary or a hearty mushroom risotto. Was $26.99, now $13.99.
2018 Rural Mendocino Pinot Noir -Rated 89 points Wine Enthusiast - Very fruity and nicely concentrated, this full-bodied wine backs ripe black-cherry flavors with subtle baking spices on a good, hearty structure of moderate tannins and fresh acidity. Was $24.99, now $16.99.
Natale Verga Moscato d’Asti - Staff Comments: A beautiful and delicate non-sparkling Moscato from Italy! It’s a DOCG Moscato so it has pedigree and finesse. Honeysuckle, lavender and sweet pears on the nose. This is sweet but not syrupy; just decadent. Hibiscus, honeycomb, fragrant lilies and nectarines. Pair this with Marcona Almonds and baked Brie. Was $18.99, now $9.99.
2021 Punta Flechas Malbec - Staff Comments: A brightly balanced Malbec from Argentina. Red rich raspberries, Bing cherries, blackberry compote, with a hint of boysenberry pie. Fruit forward and friendly! Serve this with Shepherd’s Pie, Tuesday Tacos, or make a Malbec reduction and have it over ice cream! Was $19.99, now $10.99.
2023 Giardini d'Italia Pinot Grigio - With a lively and fresh character, Pinot Grigio delle Venezie DOC by Giardini d’Italia is a straw yellow wine with very versatile greenish reflections that boasts an olfactory bouquet that combines hints of peach and floral nuances. The sip is fresh and satisfying to drink. Was $14.99, now $8.99.
2020 The Hilt Chardonnay - Rated 96 points Wine Enthusiast - This is a layered yet expertly restrained and mineral-driven Chardonnay. Aromas of white flower petals, grapefruit pith and the slightest hint of toast are wrapped in ashy and chalky elements on the nose. The palate is vibrantly tight with rock and citrus peel flavors, exhibiting a brilliant acidity. Drink now–2040. Was $50.99, now $39.99.
Murviedro Cava Rose – Rated 91 points Wine Enthusiast - The color of a summer sunset, this wine has a bouquet of green apple, dried stone fruit and nutmeg. Vibrant clementine, white-peach, lemon-zest and honeysuckle flavors are well matched by zesty acidity and bold effervescence. Was $16.99, now $8.99.
2018 DNA Coro Red Blend – Rated 90 points Wine Enthusiast - This dark-colored, concentrated and moderately tannic wine fills its big structure with very focused, pure black-cherry and blackberry flavors. A sense of polish in the texture and layering in the flavors raise this region-specific Zinfandel-based blend above the ordinary. Best now–2027. Pairs beautifully with a range of dishes including BBQ pork ribs, Pappardelle with Veal Ragú, and grilled meats. Limited Release. Was $48.99, now $24.99.
