Taylor's Pick   (Mendoza- Argentina)

Clos de Los Siete Malbec Blend 2019

Tasting Notes: An incredibly complex Bordeaux style wine from Argentina with a precise blend of 50% Malbec, 24% Merlot, 11% Syrah, 7% Cabernet-Sauvignon, 5% Cabernet Franc, and 3% Petit Verdot. As it is Argentinean, the Malbec is truly the star of this wine but the blended grapes really make their presence known with each vintage. The 2019 vintage allows the Cabernet Franc to show off more than the other vintages due to the hotter climate. Winemaker, Michel Rolland, uses the green harvesting method, that is commonly seen in Bordeaux grand cru classé harvesting, as an essential practice alongside their double guyot pruning and drip irrigation practices that allow for the perfect ripening of the grapes. Matured for about 7.5 months in French oak and 3.5 in vats. Fantastic wine with so much information on the making processes available from the winery. This wine is deep purple with vanilla, tobacco, smoked wood, pepper, blackberry, green bell pepper... I could keep going. I enjoy this wine with big foods like steak and burgers. The price of this wine is incredible for its quality- pick one up to impress your dinner guests or even just yourself, you will not be disappointed.

Price: $29.99

DeWayne's Pick   (USA)

JOSH CELLARS NORTH COAST CHARDONNAY 2021

Tasting Notes: The brand's creation (2007) came from his son, vintner Joseph Carr, as a gift to honor his father, Josh. Grapes are sourced for this wine from throughout the North Coast AVA, including Sonoma and Lake counties. The wine is elegant, crisp, and well-balanced resulting from the region’s warm, sunny days and cool nights influenced by its close proximity to the Pacific Ocean. The nose of this wine showcases bright citrus, lemon, and peach. On the palate, flavors of lemon zest, peach, and vanilla with a lingering, pleasant finish. The Reserve is a little richer, more unctuous and forward than the Sonoma County Chardonnay, the Reserve Chardonnay is made with a little more new oak and leaps from the glass with flavors of caramelized fruit and apricot combine with vanilla and custard notes. Enjoy this wine with toasted mixed nuts, seafood risotto, roast chicken with butternut squash, or spicy Italian pasta.

Price: $33.49

Ken's Pick   (Stellenbosch, South Africa)

Kanonkop Kadette Cape Blend W.O. 2020 14% abv.

Tasting Notes: Stellenbosch is a wine region steeped in history; French Huguenots established vines there in the late 1600's. The Kadette Cape Blend is a real South African expression of a Bordeaux blend: Its recipe: 43% Pinotage, 33% Merlot, 22% Cabernet Sauvignon, 2% Cabernet Franc. Deep red brick in color, it displays aromas of black plums, sage, cola, and toasty oak. On the medium full palate: red currants, smooth texture, blackberry, and medium roast coffee. Tannins are medium grippy. Medium short finish. Very good quality for a very good price. Pair with roasts, grilled meats, stews, casseroles. Drink now- 2028.

Price: $22.99 750 ml

Harry's Pick   (Canada )

Caribou Crossing Single Barrel (Small Batch)

Tasting Notes: Caribou Crossing holds the distinction of being the world’s first single barrel Canadian whisky. Made from the finest sampling of a master collection of 200,000 barrels of whisky and designed to reinvent the Canadian whisky category. Nose: A bit of leather, white pepper, dusty vanilla, and some airy hints of butterscotch. Very floral at times with wisps of unripe red berries. Palate: Creamy mouthfeel with lemon tart with a walnut crust. Caramel and vanilla at the fore front melding into shortbread cookies. Finish: Short but satisfying finish - tannins drying quickly but leaving hints of cedar behind.

Price: $100.99

Alison's Pick   (Hungary)

Hetszolo Tokaji Aszu 5 Puttonyos 2010

Tasting Notes: Tokaji wines are unique and special. The palate on this is well-balanced with a zesty opening, plenty of Clementine, peach and apricot notes. The acidity is very racy (12.5 grams per liter), that neatly balanced the 152 grams per liter residual sugar. Vibrant and very focused, this could be one of the best Aszu wines in what was a difficult vintage. Enjoy with something equally as sweet, or with a foie gras as a decadent appetizer!

Price: $63.99

Connor's Pick   (South Africa)

Protea Chenin Blanc

Tasting Notes: A fresh white wine with notes of crisp apple, citrus qualities like lemon or grapefruit and a subtle earthy taste. A beautiful balance creating a light, crisp, and acidic wine perfect of the summer weather.

Price: $16.99
