Chateau Guiraud 375
$61.99
Throughout its history, Chateau Guiraud has always maintained its INDEPENDANCE and traced its own route. The prevailing PIONNEER spirit led the property to create its own conservatory of grape varieties. In 1996, the team undertook a veritable cultural revolution by embarking on the study of BIODIVERSITY, and in 2011 Chateau Guiraud became the First Grand Cru Classé in 1855 to be awarded Organic Agriculture certification.
Ever since 2001, Château has had its own conservatory of white grapevine varieties, the only one of its kind in the world. This invaluable reserve contains 135 original strains of Semillon and of white Sauvignon Blanc. This action maintains the diversity of the vines and ensures the perenniality of the vineyard, which is a formidable asset ; it guarantees the infinite complexity of our great wines, and is also of inestimable pedagogical value.

Contra Soarda Marzemino
$31.99
With a name that means “hamlet on the slope”, Vignaioli Contrà Soarda is a beacon of conscientious farming in the region of Veneto. The estate is nestled in the hills of Breganze, an area that’s been home to the Gottardi’s since 1904. For generations, this family ran a busy osteria but in 1999 they officially became vignaioli (winemakers). 12 hectares of fallow land were purchased and a winery was built directly into the rock of the hillside to minimize its environmental impact. Since the day the vines were planted, the 12-hectare vineyard has been farmed according to organic and biodynamic principles. The wineries' tenant donkeys keep cover crops in check without compacting the soil.
Produced by Marzemino grapes, this red wine has sapid notes of plum, blackberry, and violet.
Ursa Major Cab Franc Vin Gris
$46.99
Born, raised, and handmade with love on the Black Sage Bench in the South Okanagan Valley. Ursa Major is the passion project of Rajen Toor, who was born and grew up in his family's vineyard. The project began as a conversion to organic growing, sustainable cellar practices, and the open mind to experiment and play with the varietals that they have been growing for 26 years. The rose - made from Cabernet Franc- is grown on Sagebrush Vineyard, nestled up against the mountains on the southeast side of Black Sage Rd. Deep sand with a wide gravel bar that runs down the hillside to the bottom of the sloping vineyard. Planted in 2004, his vineyard has been in organic transition for 4 years now, with a focus on soil regeneration and building organic matter. Hand harvested on September 13th. The fruit was whole-bunch direct pressed to stainless steel, where it fermented with ambient yeasts over the course of 2 months. The wine was then racked to neutral barrels and puncheons with full solids. It went through natural malolactic in barrel and rested on full lees for 6 months before bottling, unfined and unfiltered.
