Edoardo Miroglio Bio Red
$25.99
Grape-growing and wine-making have been traditional for the region ever since Thracian times. Many ancient authors have praised the Thracian wine, and the recipe has been passed from father to son for generations... This is what I was inspired by! - Edoardo Miroglio
Edoardo Miroglio founded his production in 2002, after falling in love with the soil and climate of the Thracian Region. He works fully with organic vines, producing an array of lines. His EM line is his premium quality line, focusing on showing the complexity the terroir gives to the wine. This red is a blend of Mavrud (60%) and Rubin (40%), with notes of dark berries, oak spice, and a bright acidity and smooth tannins. A KWM Exclusive!
Burdock Tuesday
$5.99
This saison is can conditioned and made with an Italian saison yeast. It's lightly farmy with a mellow, but semi-complex grain bill and plenty of yeasty character.
Dominio de Tares Cepas Viejas
$39.99
This is a beautiful Mencía that comes from 70 to 90-year-old vines from the villages of Cacabelos, Vilafranca del Bierzo and Toral de los Vados, all in the Bierrzo region of Spain. The wine is fermented using ambient yeast fermentation then left to age for nine months in French and American oak barrels. It's then aged another 6 months in barrel before it is finally released. Mencia is grape that was overlooked outside of Spain but it's gaining a loyal following for its calling card of flowery aromas complimented by flavours that include strawberry, raspberry, black licorice, pomegranate and cherry. It can produce light, almost Pinot Noir of Gamay-like wines but this one is considerably more substantial, ideal with grilled meats.

Pierre Peters Cuvee de Reserve
$107.99
Located in the small village of Le Mesnil sur Oger, in the heart of the Cote des Blancs, The Pierre Peters estate has been a family run house since 1919. Growing and adapting to their forever changing vineyards, Pierre Peters produces only Blanc de Blancs, and only works with the grapes harvested from their vineyards. This is their flagship Champagne and is a blend of more than 20 years of harvests and is exclusively composed of Chardonnay from Grand Cru villages in the Côte des Blancs. This wine is graceful and elegant, with notes of lemon, pear, white flower and acacia. The finish is persistent, with white floral notes twisting in with a touch of salinity.
Duplessis Chablis 1er Montmains
$96.99
The 2017 Chablis Montmains 1er Cru has a crisp and taut, slighty austere bouquet that takes time to get warmed up in the glass, retaining those classic flint and smoke aromas. The palate is fresh and vibrant with a fine bead of acidity, touches of orange rind and dried apricot with a gentle, caressing finish that seems to just " wash over" the senses.
Organic farming and natural winemaking are not the first things to come to mind when thinking of Chablis. Industrial farming is commonplace, with chemical pesticides and mechanical harvesting in the vines and lab yeasts and other winemaking tricks in the cellar. There are, however, a few producers working against the norm, farming with respect for the earth and employing traditional methods in the cellar. Lilian Duplessis not only farms organically (certified as of the 2013 vintage), he continuously succeeds in making some of the most profound, energetic, and simply delicious wines that Chablis can offer.
Chablis is a region well-known for its unique Kimmeridgian soils. Light gray in colour (almost white, in fact) and limestone based, the soils formed around 150 million years ago. These soils are rich with Exogyra virgule – tiny oyster fossils from when the region was underwater, which give a sharp, mineral aspect to these famed wines.
Lilian is the second generation of vignerons to farm 9 hectares of old vines planted by his father, Gérard, and produces wines from the Village level as well as some of the most prestigious Premier and Grand Cru vineyard sites. His philosophy for working in harmony with the earth translates to how he works in the cellar: native yeast fermentations, long lees ageing in stainless steel tank followed by a six-to-eighteen month (depending on the vintage) elévage in neutral oak barrels before being bottled with a minimal addition of sulphur.
These are powerful wines that are built for ageing and will reward patient cellaring.
Veuve Clicquot Rose
$124.99
An ode to Madame Cliquot, one of the creators of sparkling wines. Veuve Cliquot is one of the biggest names coming from Champagne, creating wines that are consistent every year. Their Rose is 44 to 48% Pinot Noir, 13 to 18% Meunier, 25 to 29% of Chardonnay, and is created from a selection of grapes sourced from 50-70 crus. This wine screams strawberries, with other notes of ripe red berries, biscuit and pastry.
