It’s rarely the fanciest wine on a table, but it’s often the first bottle empty. Its brisk texture and lovely dry fruit make it pairable with a long list of foods, from cheese (goat is best), to oysters, to chicken, to paté, to nothing at all.
Michot’s 2024 is everything you want in an everyday Loire white – dry, refreshing, low alcohol (12.5%), smooth, and inexpensive. Made from 40-70 year old vines, there’s excellent concentration and great length. The nose shows lime, stones and grapefruit; the mouth is clear and crisp, with an easygoing, dry finish.

Winemaker Vincent Ravaut uses malolactic fermentation and a year of aging on lees to add complexity and depth
The 2023 in particular is just lovely. The scorching hot vintage has added a bit of flesh to the refreshing aligoté energy, and the resulting wine is unusually good. Look for soft fruit and a white flower nose, with brisk freshness and notes of lemon pulp and straw in the mouth. It’s a lovely everyday white Burgundy at a very attractive price.

Syrah of the Northern Rhône represents the grape at its most subtle, and even at this humble appellation there’s an elegance and detail that’s not possible from the grape grown elsewhere. The nose is dark and floral, with delicate flowers, fruit and a bit of spice. The tannins are light and crackling – think a beaujolais but with a bluer hue. This is a warm weather red, at home at a picnic table or tailgate. Serve with charcuterie. Less (-) Free US Shipping | |

It’s also abundant and inexpensive. Made from the Melon de Bourgogne grape, the best examples are raised “sur lie” (on the lees) to add complexity. In recent years Muscadet has undergone a reinvention of sorts with the elevation of three of the region’s best towns to a new “Cru Communal” status.
Combining exceptional terroir with extended years on the lees, this is an unusually complex take on a classic. The 2022 Gorges is pure and clean, showing melon, dried spring flowers, and lemon zest. The mouth is smooth and very dry, with notes of salt air, stones, and green apple skins. It’s refreshing and full of energy. Less (-) Free US Shipping | |

Basset’s family has grown grapes (and flowers) in the town of Beaumont-Monteux for generations; but more than a decade ago, after a near-death experience with a high voltage line, he resolved to take over the family’s vines and to create his own domaine.
The 2023 vintage was hot and dry for just about everywhere in France, and growing conditions were also exemplary in the Northern Rhône. Basset's 2023 Etincelle has ample freshness and very good ripeness of fruit. Aromatically, there’s a pleasant note of clove mixing with Syrah’s dark fruit and graphite. It's middleweight, fresh, and very clean – perfect for a weeknight glass while you throw together dinner. Less (-) Free US Shipping | |

They produce humble, unfussy, extremely well-priced red Bordeaux, more at home in a Parisian bistro than a Michelin restaurant.
Château Roquegrave 2022 has been a Cru Bourgeous since its founding in 1932, this is still a bargain and a great candidate for an everyday house Bordeaux. Roquegrave is more serious and intense than Haut-Valeyrac, but still would be at home on a bistro table alongside a plate of steak-frites. The nose is dark and pretty, with beautiful deep plum notes alongside cocoa and violets. The mouth is juicier and fuller, with younger fruit and younger tannin – give this a half hour open in a carafe and pair it with lamb chops or shish kabobs. Less (-) Free US Shipping | |

Under Piero Lanza, the domaine has built a decades-long reputation for meticulous vineyard work and restrained, traditional winemaking, producing wines that emphasize clarity, balance, and site expression. Antonio Galloni has called them “some of the purest expressions of the Sangiovese grape in Italy.”For a number of years, longtime Poggerino buyers had to do without Il Labirinto, Piero’s entry level Toscana Rosso, which was created to receive the juice of the youngest Sangiovese vines on the property. When the original vines that supplied the grapes for Labirinto reached the age of twenty, Piero understandably moved them into Chianti Classico production and suspended production of the cuvée. But there are once again enough new young vines to resurrect the Labirinto cuvée, and we are pleased to be able to offer it again. Labirinto is entirely vat raised, and the young vines bring a bright freshness and red cherry fruit to every glass. Galloni called Labirinto “a striking combination of red Sangiovese fruit buffered by bright acids and floral notes,” adding that “the purity of the flavors is compelling.” Less (-) Free US Shipping | |

His wines consistently showcase the region’s rugged grape varieties while maintaining a sense of refinement and drinkability.
The 2025 Séguret Rosé is 85% Grenache and 15% Syrah. Rosé from the Rhône Valley is always among our favorites, where savory notes blend beautifully with fruit and aromatics. The 2025 is smooth and fresh, with a gorgeous nose of wild cherries and melon. The mouth is clean and crisp with a faint note of grapeskin and a burst of stony freshness. Serve with chicken or summer vegetables on the grill. Less (-) Free US Shipping |
