Castell Del Remei ‘Gotim Blanc’ 2022- $18.99/btl $2.50/taste
Costers del Segre, Spain
A beautiful Sauvignon Blanc-lead blend with supporting actors Macabeu and Garnatxa Blanca. Funny how the further north you go in Spain, the more “t’” and “x” stand in for the good ole “ch”. Now that we’ve established that fact, you’ll be able to decode a little more about a bottle of wine just by looking at it! We all aren’t wine region geography majors! (Yet!) This wine is crisp and creamy, too. Aged on the lees without stirring. Peach notes and yellow apples.
Quady North GSM Rose 2022- $14.99/btl $2.50/taste
Rogue Valley, Oregon
Grenache, Syrah and Merlot rose from the southern most wine region in Oregon. This rose is very apple-y with delicate floral notes and crunchy acidity that is present throughout. And it’s on sale!

Villarini Nero d’Avola 2021- $14.99/btl $2.50/taste
Sicily, Italy
Organically grown and NOT all coming from hot hot Mount Etna, this expression of Nero d’Avola (Sicily’s most-known native grape) is true to its varietal character. Cherry, blackberry, plum and fine herbs just gently sewn in. Not overpowering. Gentle and nice. Thank you, Villarini!
Tassajara Cabernet Sauvignon 2021- $14.99/btl $2.50/taste
Monterey County, California
Cabernet from sustainably farmed estate vineyards, and only $14.99! Strong blackberry flavors without the Smucker’s Jam essence which is oh so common these days in wines of this price point. Minimal oak intervention- no extraction. It’s nice to know that Tassajara is out there doing things right. Thanks, Tassajara!
