Alvaro Domecq La Jaca Manzanilla Manzanilla Sanlucar de Barrameda 750ml
Expert Review
Michael Schachner of The Wine Enthusiast writes 88 Points | Mildly oxidized aromas of honeyed fruits and salt water are less alert than ideal, while this feels plump but without intense acidic cut. Toffee and caramel flavors include a note of white mushroom, while this golden Manzanilla feels dry and tastes a bit like fresh butter on the finish.
Winemaker Description
Manzanilla La Jaca is the most famous wine from Bodegas Álvaro Domecq, together with the Fino La Janda. Last year all of the entry-level wines (not the ‘1730’ series) were given a modern, graphical label with abstract motifs and bold colours.

Our Professional Notes
Oscar Garcia Moncada, 67 Wine Buyer, writes: On the nose, you’ll encounter an enticing bouquet of wild red berries—raspberries, strawberries, and red currants. The palate continues the red berry theme, delivering a tangy, fruit-forward experience complemented by a delightful saline minerality that adds complexity. The finish is crisp and dry, with a bright, natural acidity that makes this wine a fantastic choice as an aperitif or a versatile companion to food.
Castellroig Sabate i Coca Corpinnat Organic Reserva Brut Nature 2023 750ml

Quality sparkling wine with very fine bubbles due to its long aging. Complex aroma, fresh notes of pineapple and eucalyptus, toasted cocoa and dried fruits, perfectly blended together. Voluminous, fleshy and fresh in the mouth. Structured and surprisingly fresh, long-lasting and well balanced.
Its high acidity and dry finish make it incredibly versatile:
-
Tapas: Excellent with Jamón Ibérico, olives, and aged Spanish cheeses.
-
Seafood: Perfect with oysters, sushi, or grilled shrimp.
-
Anything Fried: The sharp acidity cuts beautifully through rich, fried foods like calamari or fried chicken.

Bodegas del Rio Manzanilla Fina Solera Playa Azul Joven 750ml
Winemaker Description
A young Manzanilla with four year of biological aging. Thanks to the proximity of the sea, the aging under flor is intense. The wine has complex character, resulting in great elegance, plenty of finesse, with a delicate and saline finish.
Our Notes
A vibrant young Manzanilla with plenty of character. Aromas of green olives, green citrus fruit, and a pungent saline quality bind all the aromas and flavors together. Serve well-chilled in a white wine glass and pair with Marcona almonds, potato crisps, and Jamón de Bellota. But also try it with cold potato and leek soup, sprinkled with crisp bits of pancetta. Manzanillas are my ideal apéritif wine to awaken the palate before a meal.

Magoutes Siatista Rosé 2025 750ml
Magoutes Siatista Rosé — Macedonia, Greece 2025
Magoutes Vineyard sits at 800 metres above sea level in the rugged, inhospitable region of Siatista in northern Macedonia — one of Greece's most compelling and least-known wine territories. Winemaker Dimitri Diamantis practices radical low-intervention viticulture: spontaneous fermentation, gentle racking off skins, and aging in old barrels to finish. The vineyard holds sway over everything.
This rosé is a blend of 80% Xinomavro and 20% Moschomavro — an über-rare indigenous variety (meaning "black Muscat") grown almost exclusively by Diamantis. The result is a wine of delicate partridge-eye color, subtly aromatic with hints of redcurrants and fraises de bois, wonderfully fruity within a structured core of zingy acidity. A rosé of real character and place.
- Producer: Magoutes Vineyard, Siatista, Macedonia, Greece
- Vintage: 2025
- Appellation: Siatista, Macedonia
- Blend: 80% Xinomavro, 20% Moschomavro
- Style: Dry, structured, low-intervention rosé

- Format: 750ml
- Best Paired With: Grilled seafood, mezze, roasted vegetables, feta salads, lamb kebabs

Benegas Esate Wine Don Tiburcio Malbec Mendoza 2021
Winemaker Description
In terms of quality and price, this is arguably the best 'Bordeaux blend' in our portfolio, made by a winemaker who is passionate about the wines of his French cousins but still proudly Argentine. 50% Malbec, 20% Cab Franc, 20% Cab Sauv, 5% Petit Verdot, 5% Merlot.
A nose of black fruits, spices, white pepper, clove, cardamon, eucalyptus, thyme and rosemary - complex in other words, with a fantastic finish.
Federico Benegas Lynch was raised at ‘El Trapiche’, a winery established in 1883 by his great, great grandfather, Don Tiburcio Benegas, one of the original pioneers of Argentine wine. The winery was finally sold in the 1970s and in 1998, following a successful business career in Buenos Aires, Federico returned to Mendoza to re-kindle his lifelong passion and professional destiny, wine. He bought Finca La Libertad, an historic 40-hectare vineyard with ‘soils’ of stone on the old Upper Mendoza riverbank in Cruz de Piedra, and the old winery that belonged to his mother’s family which he quickly set about refurbishing. His idea was based on the traditional French Châteaux system, where proprietorship of vineyard and winery are inextricably linked.

Southern Right Sauvignon Blanc 2025 750ml
Southern Right · Sauvignon Blanc · Walker Bay · 2025
Southern Right is the Walker Bay estate of Hamilton Russell Vineyards — one of South Africa's most respected wine families — and their Sauvignon Blanc is a deliberate statement of intent: this is Sauvignon Blanc as fine wine, not Sauvignon Blanc as a varietal exercise. Sourced from 35 different parcels across varied soil types in Walker Bay, the wine is built on the tension between Old World minerality and New World texture. Iron and clay-rich soils add structural complexity and body; sandstone soils contribute bright, tensile character and a marked saline minerality. A small 7–8% portion of the blend is barrel-fermented in neutral oak for four months, adding just enough texture without obscuring the variety's natural precision. Certified Sustainable (Integrated Production of Wine, Biodiversity & Wine Initiative). At $19.99, this is South African Sauvignon Blanc at its most serious and most rewarding.
The 2025 opens with a lively bouquet of passion fruit, guava, gooseberry, Conference pear, and a subtle lift of white pepper and dried ginger. On the palate: crisp, lean, and beautifully balanced — bright acidity, fine weight, and a saline mineral thread that runs through to a clean, peppery finish. Drink now through 2027.
“Sauvignon Blanc as fine wine… tight 'Old World' minerality and length with hints of 'New World' texture and body.”

D'Ora Orange Gruner Veltliner 2024 1L
D’Ora · Orange Grüner Veltliner · Niederösterreich · Austria · 2024
Gerald Diem is a fifth-generation winemaker whose family has farmed the foot of the Manharts mountain since 1848. He and his wife took over the estate in 2000, converting their 25 hectares to certified organic viticulture — dry farmed, hand harvested, and rooted in sand and clay sediment soils that give D’Ora wines their distinctive texture and character. The Orange Grüner Veltliner is their most expressive bottling: a skin-contact white that is completely dry yet evokes the pleasure of an orange creamsicle, in the best possible way.
The 2024 pours a dusty tangerine with luminous clarity. The nose opens with yellow apple, vanilla wafers, and warm spice — inviting and aromatic. On the palate, layers of sweet apple, orange creamsicle, and gentle tannin from skin contact give way to a clean, refreshing finish. Certified organic, dry farmed, and bottled in a generous 1L format that makes it as practical as it is pleasurable.

Lo-Fi Aperitifs Vermouth Dry 750ml
Lo-Fi Aperitifs Dry Vermouth | California | 750ml
Lo-Fi Aperitifs was born out of a simple conviction: that the best cocktails start with the best vermouth, and that most vermouth on the market wasn't good enough. Founded in California, Lo-Fi set out to make aperitifs that are genuinely delicious on their own — complex, aromatic, and balanced — not just a background note in someone else's drink.
Their Dry Vermouth is built on a foundation of California wine, then layered with a carefully chosen botanical blend: cherry, fennel, elderflower, anise, and chamomile. The result is floral and herbal, with a clean, dry finish and just enough bitterness to keep things interesting. It's the kind of vermouth that makes a Martini worth drinking — and that's equally good poured over ice with a twist.
- Style: Dry Vermouth
- Origin: California, USA
- Botanicals: Cherry, fennel, elderflower, anise, chamomile
- Size: 750ml
- Best For: Martinis, Gibsons, Negroni Bianco, or chilled with a lemon twist
