Burgos Porta Mas Sinen Clos
$65.99
This aromatic red bursts out of the glass with a big bouquet of aromas that includes black licorice, tea, campfire smoke and black fruits. On the palate, it's all cassis, black fruits and spice, with firm but ripe and well-integrated tannins. It spends its time 90% French and 10% American oak barrels and will continue to improve for another 8 -10 years.
La Torre Rosso Di Montalcino 2023
$47.99
Azienda Agricola La Torre is located near Sant'Angelo in Colle, in the southern part of the Montalcino municipality. The first La Torre Brunello di Montalcino was the 1982 Brunello, which appeared on the market in 1987, eleven years after the estate was purchased. The estate is 36 hectares in size, 5.6 hectares of which is planted as vineyards. The winery produces Brunello di Montalcino, Rosso di Montalcino, Ampelio, Rosso Toscano and, in outstanding years, Brunello Riserva. The winery operates on a traditional basis, although its practices respond to developments in know-how and environmental protection. Tradition is never forgotten, and recently-abandoned procedures and practices are given due consideration alongside innovations provided by scientific research.
Dumangin Le Vintage Premier Cru 2010
$97.99
2010 Vintage. A grower-producer in the heart of Chigny-les-Rose, Giles Dumangin has champagne coursing through his veins. Dating back to the 1650s, the Dumangins have always worked with the vines of Champagne, but it wasn't until 1890 when Hippolyte Dumangin created Champagne Dumangin in the 1er Cru vineyards of Chigny-les-Roses. Five generations later, Champagne Dumangin is producing an array of champagnes, from their classic, feminine style to their newer, high-end cuvees. Their Vintage Cuvee is a blend of Chardonnay (54%) and Pinot Noir (46%), and with 9 years en tirage (on the yeast lees), the wine shows beautiful and elegant complexity. Expect notes of brioche, grilled almonds, blossom and lemon drops, with a bright acidity that extends the finish. Pair with fresh seafood, or simply enjoy as an aperitif. 2010 was a challenging vintage for the region, but Dumangin did some aggressive sorting and managed to deliver a lovely vintage wine.
Durigutti Compuertas Cordisco
$31.99
It all began in 2007 with the first five hectares of an old Malbec vineyard that the brothers acquired a few steps from the winery, on Callejón de la Reta. Since then, a path of recovery and revaluation of the history and traditions of an emblematic wine region of Lujan de Cuyo begins: Las Compuertas. Over the years, more hectares were added to the project, today 31, and they baptized this place with the name of their mother, as Finca Victoria. This work seeks to accompany the development of producers in the area who maintain their vineyards with pride in the face of the unstoppable advance of urbanization.
Verderubbi Pita Verdejo 2023
$24.99
The Pita family has a long history in Spain's Rueda region, a DO dedicated solely to white wine. The dominant variety in the region is Verdejo, a grape that offers crisp citrusy white wines reminiscent of Sauvignon Blanc without the resounding grassiness. It has a generous mouthfeel with notes of tropical fruit, and apples, and is certified organic. It would go well with shellfish and other appetizers.
Boischampt Gamay
$35.99
A new exclusive at KWM! This domaine was first created in 1642, and is now under the guidance of Antoine Romero and an Australian Japanese couple passionate about vines and wine: Yuko and Bob Harris. The partner's Beaujolais vineyards and wines are in the process of being certified organic. Vinified with natural yeasts and without sulphur. Thanks to the group's skill and care, Domaine De Boischampt has joined the ranks of Lapierre, Sylvain Martel and Anne Sophie Dubois with the concentration and refinement of these wines. It offers light notes of aromatic herbs and a subtle woodiness. Suave and balanced on the palate and complemented by beautifully coated and consistent tannins. The silky/smooth texture results in instant enjoyment. Serve lightly chilled.
Croix des Pins Ventoux Rouge
$27.99
Situated in Mazan, (Vaucluse county,) the Château la Croix des Pins boast a micro-climate due to its ideal location between the Mont Ventoux and Les Dentelles de Montmirail in an area classified as a Biosphere Reserve by UNESCO. It's a blend of Grenache 55%, Syrah 35% and Mourvèdre. It's a spicy, zesty affair with subtle black and red fruit notes and hints of garrigues. This wine is made for barbecue season. Excellent value!
Poggio al Sole Chiara Bianco Toscana
$29.99
There's not a lot of Chardonnay planted in Tuscany, being a French transplant and all, but this example from one of our favourite Tuscan producers makes you wonder why they don't plant more. While this organic wine does not undergo malolactic fermentation, it's kept on the lees for an extended period for added complexity. Expect a lively and fresh white wine that can pair with goat cheese, arugula pizza, salads, or all on its own on a summer day when you need a lift!
Peter Lauer Ayler No 25
$56.99
A classic, vibrant and exquiste Riseling from Peter Lauer. Comapred to his neighbours (Egon muller and the likes), Lauer focuses more on those dry and off-dry styles, permitting a style of riesling that is bright, electric and mineral driven. This wine is no different, and I would highly recommend. It is complex, elegant and explosive. Perfect to pair with dishes that are just as expressive.
