Expert Review — Vintage 2023
92 pts — James Suckling: “Ripe yet restrained, this sits on the edge of reduction, showing aromas of yellow apples, grilled peaches, lemon curd and a touch of struck flint. The palate reflects the cool vintage with bright acidity and a layered feel, delivering baked citrus, toasted almonds and subtle spices. Rounded and fresh with a savory, lingering finish. Drink or hold.”
Winemaker Notes
Grgich Hills’ estate-grown Chardonnay is a singular expression of Napa Valley — biodynamically farmed, and uniquely crafted without malolactic fermentation to preserve its natural, vibrant acidity. The 2023 vintage opens with aromas of sweet lime, fresh lemon, green mango, and white peach, leading to a palate of fresh citrus, star fruit, mango, and a hint of vanilla, all supported by juicy acidity and abundant minerality. The finish is long, layered, and deeply satisfying.
Founded by the legendary Mike Grgich — the winemaker behind the celebrated 1973 Chateau Montelena Chardonnay that triumphed at the 1976 Judgment of Paris — Grgich Hills has been a benchmark for Napa Chardonnay for nearly five decades.

Grgich Hills Fume Blanc Sauvignon Blanc 2023 375ml Half Bottle
In 1968, Miljenko “Mike” Grgich went to work for Robert Mondavi as chief enologist, crafting the inaugural release of “Fumé Blanc” — an elegant, dry, oak-aged style of Sauvignon Blanc that Mondavi named after the French word for smoke. A decade later, Mike's 1973 Chardonnay famously won the Judgment of Paris, putting California wine on the world map. He went on to found Grgich Hills Estate in 1977, where he continued to champion the Fumé Blanc style as a tribute to his mentor and friend. Today, the estate farms all five of its Napa Valley vineyards organically and biodynamically.
The Grgich Hills Fumé Blanc Sauvignon Blanc 2023 375ml Half Bottle opens with striking aromas of fresh lime, lemon verbena, gooseberry, and honeysuckle. On the palate, bright citrus, tangy star fruit, and a hint of green mango are framed by deft oak and a chiseled, linear acidity that carries through to a long, mineral finish of lasting slate. Certified organic and biodynamic — a wine of precision, integrity, and genuine pleasure in a perfect half-bottle format.

Grooner, Grüner Veltliner Kremstal 2024 750ml
Grooner is a collaboration between importer Monika Caha & Toni Silver of Monika Caha Selections and Meinhard Forstreiter of Weingut Forstreiter — one of Austria's most respected family estates. The Forstreiter family has been making wine in Krems-Hollenburg in the Kremstal since 1868, farming 69 acres of vineyards along the banks of the Danube River, directly across from the Wachau. The estate was named Top 100 Wineries of the Year by Wine & Spirits Magazine, and Meinhard Forstreiter has brought the property to a new level of quality through a combination of advanced modern technology and sound, sustainable viticulture.
The Grooner Grüner Veltliner is sourced from Forstreiter's vineyards on south- and east-facing terraces above the Danube, planted on the distinctive Hollenburger Konglomerat — a unique soil formation of compressed Ice Age gravel from the Danube riverbanks, layered with loess, clay, and sandy soils. This exceptional terroir, combined with the Kremstal's continental microclimate, produces Grüner Veltliner of natural freshness, mineral depth, and the characteristic white pepper spice the variety is celebrated for.
Vinification follows Forstreiter's meticulous approach: careful temperature-controlled fermentation to preserve the grape's aromatic vibrancy and varietal character. The result is a Qualitätswein (appellation-controlled) wine of genuine quality — fun and approachable in style, but crafted with the same artisanal care as all Forstreiter wines.
The 2024 Grooner is crisp, refreshing, and peppery, with inviting aromas and flavors of citrus, green apple, and cool stone fruit. On the palate, the wine is balanced and lively, with bright acidity, a clean mineral thread, and a fresh, clean finish. The quintessential food-friendly Austrian white.
A wine made from Grüner Veltliner the #1 white wine grape of Austria. If you like Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Grigio, you’ll love Grooner!

Groth OAKVILLE Cabernet Sauvignon 2022 750ml
Groth · Oakville Cabernet Sauvignon · 2022
Groth’s roots in Oakville reach back to 1981, when Dennis and Judy Groth chose a 121-acre property to pursue their dream of growing Cabernet Sauvignon in Napa Valley. The 2022 bottling is an Oakville red with dark fruit, cedar and a polished structure, suited to a lingering dinner or time in the cellar.
Winemaker Description · 2022 Vintage
The 2022 Oakville Cabernet Sauvignon is an elegant wine that presents a deep, purple-ruby hue. It offers an elegant bouquet on the nose, with layers, of toffee, blueberry pie, and raspberry compote, complemented by delicate vanilla bean, macerated cranberry, and shortcrust pastry. Herbal notes of bay leaf and tarragon add complexity, enhancing the wine’s refined character. On the palate, vibrant flavors of cherry reduction sauce, tart red plum, wild cherry, and fresh strawberry come to the forefront, while hints of dried herbs, tobacco leaf, and fresh pomegranate juice bring depth and intrigue. The wine finishes with fine, grippy tannins, offering structure and a lively, energetic experience.
Director of Winegrowing Ted Henry
Expert Reviews · 2022 Vintage
An impressive value for an Oakville AVA Cabernet, Groth's 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon is a bit reticent and slow out of the chute, but aeration brings out nice aromas of black cherries and subtle cedar notes. A blend of 87% Cabernet Sauvignon, 11% Merlot and 2% Petit Verdot, it's medium- to full-bodied but streamlined and silky, showing impressive length and elegance for the vintage. The new-oak component comes in at 45%, imparting just enough structure to ensure a decade's worth of drinkability.
The Wine Advocate · 92 points
This young wine is impressively concentrated, tannic and tight at this stage of its development, but it carries the proper amount of dark fruit, dark chocolate and heady oak spices to gain complexity with age.

Gruet Brut Sparkling New Mexico 750ml
Gruet Brut Gold Label — New Mexico, USA
The story of Gruet is one of the great surprises in American wine. In 1984, the Gruet family of Champagne, France — already celebrated producers in the heart of the world’s most famous sparkling wine region — planted vineyards at 4,300 feet elevation in the New Mexico desert. What they discovered was a high-altitude terroir of remarkable character: cool nights, intense sun, and volcanic soils that produce grapes of exceptional natural acidity and finesse. The Gold Label Brut is their flagship cuvée: a Pinot Noir and Chardonnay blend crafted in the traditional méthode champenoise, with fine persistent bubbles, elegant brioche notes, and a crisp, refreshing finish that rivals sparkling wines at twice the price. Decanter awarded it 90 points. At $16.99, it is one of the most exciting values in American sparkling wine.
The nose is elegant and inviting: meringue, hints of lavender, and a whisper of molten candle wax. On the palate, fresh-cut apple flesh, wild honey, and quince come forward with brisk, satisfying acidity and a clean, persistent finish. Fine bubbles carry the wine from start to finish with real Champagne-house precision.

Gruet Rosé Brut Half-Bottle 375ml
The Gruet family left Champagne in 1984 and planted vines in the high-altitude desert of New Mexico — an unlikely move that turned out to be quietly inspired. At 4,300 feet elevation, the cool nights and volcanic soils of the Rio Grande Valley proved to be remarkable terroir for sparkling wine. Today, Gruet Brut Rosé is widely regarded as one of the finest sparkling wine values in America, made by a family that learned the craft in France and never forgot it.
This non-vintage rosé is 100% Pinot Noir, crafted via traditional méthode champenoise with a minimum of 24 months aging on the lees en tirage. The result is a wine of genuine weight and character: a deep, nearly garnet-pink color far richer than a typical salmon rosé, a bright floral bouquet of wild strawberry, raspberry, and rose petal, and a palate that is rich and mouth-filling with ripe cherry, cranberry, and a hint of biscuit from the extended aging. The finish is zesty and clean, with the kind of refreshing acidity that makes the glass disappear faster than expected.
- Producer: Gruet Winery
- Style: Brut Rosé NV, Méthode Champenoise
- Region: New Mexico, USA
- Varietal: 100% Pinot Noir
- Aging: Minimum 24 months on the lees

Güeyu Mar - Chargrilled Mussels 6.3 oz.
Plump Mediterranean mussels chargrilled over hardwood coals and preserved in bright escabeche, offering balanced smoke, brine, and acidity.
Plump and tender with smoky sweetness, briny depth, firm structure, and bright acidity.

The larger 14–16 size gives a fuller, meatier bite that stands up beautifully to both the grill and the marinade.
Serve with crusty bread, warm potatoes, or white beans, or spoon over simple rice or farro. Use the escabeche as a ready-made dressing for vegetables or grains.

Hand grilled over specially selected Spanish hardwoods, which impart a complex, smoky flavor, these squid are then packed in their own ink by Master Chef Abel Alvarez at his restaurant Gueyu Mar on the north coast of Spain. Bon Appetit magazine called them "intoxicating."
-Martin Johnson, Cheesemonger | 67 Gourmet
About Gueyu Mar:
Abel Alvarez is not a chef. He is an artist, an innovator, and above all an asador (grill master). His restaurant of the same name sits on Playa de Vega where the stars of each dish are caught and transformed. Simplicity is king at Güeyu Mar, where the ingredients are minimal, local, and intentional. Woods selected for their aromatic qualities create fire for the brasa (grill) on which each fish is kissed. Some go to lunch service at the restaurant, while others are preserved in a can for you to savor whenever the moment strikes.

Gulfi Carjcanti DOC Sicilia Carricante 2022 Organic 750ml
Gulfi is one of Sicily's most respected family estates, based in Chiaramonte Gulfi in the Monti Iblei hills of Ragusa — a world away from the volcanic drama of Etna, yet equally compelling. The Carjcanti is made from 100% Carricante, an indigenous Sicilian grape variety traditionally associated with Etna, here grown at 420 meters altitude on limestone-clay soils using traditional alberello training with 9,000 vines per hectare.

Aged one year in 500L and 2,500L oak barrels followed by several months in bottle, the 2022 Carjcanti is a wine of real tension and complexity — mineral, savory, and built to age, yet already showing beautiful aromatic detail and a palate that rewards every sip.
"Sweet almond paste, young peaches, hints of flint and smoke waft up from this wine. Its soft texture soothes as a savory display of herbal-tinged orchard fruits and salty minerals wash across the palate. There’s a lovely cut of acidity as this finishes with youthful tension revealing hints of hazelnuts and inner florals."

Gyokusendo Shuzo Mukade Nigori Ginjo Dry Sake 720ml
Gyokusendo Shuzo Mukade Nigori Ginjo — Gifu, Japan
Gyokusendo Shuzo is a small, artisan brewery nestled in Gifu Prefecture, in the heart of the Japanese Alps. The brewery draws its water from the legendary springs of the Yoro Mountains — a source celebrated for centuries for its exceptional purity and soft mineral character, long considered among the finest brewing waters in Japan. It is this water, combined with locally grown rice milled to 50% and the delicate Ginjo fermentation process, that defines the Mukade style: refined, aromatic, and unlike any nigori you have encountered before.
Nigori sake is unfiltered, allowing fine rice sediment to remain in the bottle — giving it a characteristic milky appearance, a silky texture, and a gentle richness that sets it apart from clear sake. The Mukade Nigori Ginjo takes this tradition and elevates it: fermented at low temperatures with Yeast 601 to develop the floral, fruity Ginjo aromatics, then left unfiltered to preserve its natural texture and depth. The result is a sake that is simultaneously elegant and indulgent — dry on the finish, yet lush and enveloping on the palate.
Cloudy and luminous in the glass, with a soft ivory hue. The nose is delicate and floral — white peach, lychee, rice blossom, and a whisper of cream. On the palate it is silky and medium-bodied, with a gentle sweetness that gives way to a clean, dry finish. The Yoro mountain water is felt throughout: soft, pure, and seamlessly integrated. A sake that rewards both the curious newcomer and the seasoned enthusiast.

Hahn Estate S.L.H. Chardonnay — Santa Lucia Highlands 2021
Hahn Estate’s S.L.H. Chardonnay is one of California’s most compelling cool-climate expressions of the variety — and the 2021 vintage delivers with exceptional clarity and energy.

Hahn Estates Cabernet Sauvignon Nicky Hahn California 2024 750ml
Hahn Estates Cabernet Sauvignon Nicky Hahn California 2024 750ml
The Nicky Hahn Cabernet Sauvignon is Hahn Estates' flagship everyday red — a California Cabernet that delivers serious character at an honest price. Sourced from sun-drenched California vineyards and crafted by winemaker Adam LaZarre, this is a rich, generous, and well-structured Cabernet built for the table. Deep ruby, almost black, with vivid crimson highlights, it opens with a beautifully balanced nose and a palate that rewards every sip.
The wine delivers dark fruits, raspberry, and a touch of hard candy, finishing with a whisper of tobacco and firm, well-structured tannins anchored by a bright acid core — the kind of California Cabernet that overdelivers at its price point.
"Opens with a striking nose of black cherry, anise, olive, and cedar. Rich, ripe, and generous on the palate with dark fruits, raspberry, and a touch of hard candy. Finishes with a whisper of tobacco and firm, well-structured tannins." — Winemaker Adam LaZarre

Hahn Estates SLH PINOT NOIR Monterey Santa Lucia Highlands 2023 750ml
Hahn Estates SLH Pinot Noir Santa Lucia Highlands 2023 750ml
Hahn Estates is one of Monterey’s most respected producers, and the SLH bottling is their flagship Pinot Noir — estate-grown in the Santa Lucia Highlands, one of California’s most celebrated cool-climate AVAs. The SLH sits at 1,200–2,200 feet elevation in the mountains above Monterey Bay, where the famous “wind-gap” effect funnels cold Pacific air and morning fog through the valleys each afternoon. The result is a long, slow growing season that builds extraordinary flavor complexity while preserving the bright acidity that makes great Pinot Noir possible.
The 2023 SLH is a standout — generous, deep, and deeply Californian, with a richness of fruit that is beautifully balanced by savory complexity and silky tannins. A clear step up from the standard California tier and a wine that punches well above its price.
"So generous, deep and flavorful, offering crushed raspberry and baked-cherry notes on soft tannins. Savory nuances of black tea, mushrooms and forest floor." — James Suckling, 93 pts. (Vintage 2023).

Hahn GSM Central Coast Grenache, Syrah, Mouvedre 2023 750ml
When Swiss-born Nicky and Gaby Hahn first arrived in California’s Santa Lucia Highlands in the late 1970s, they saw something others had overlooked: a region with the altitude, cool nights, and coastal influence to produce wines of genuine character at an honest price. Decades on, Hahn Family Wines remains family-owned and fiercely committed to that original vision. The GSM — a California take on the classic Grenache, Syrah, Mourvèdre blend of the Southern Rhône — is one of the range’s most compelling expressions.
Bright ruby in color, the 2023 opens with lively aromas of black raspberry, Bing cherry, violet, and a spike of pink peppercorn. The palate is medium-bodied and savory — concentrated pomegranate, strawberry, clove, and a hint of orange peel carry through to a finish with grippy, well-composed tannins and a touch of brown sugar warmth. Versatile at the table and effortlessly drinkable, this is a GSM that earns its value without apology.
90 points — Wine Enthusiast | “Lively aromas of black raspberry, Bing cherry, and cinnamon stick… concentrated pomegranate, clove, orange slices, brown sugar, and grippy tannins on the finish.” — Tonya Pitts. (Vintage 2023).
88 points — Wine Spectator | “A perky, fruit-forward, quaffable red, showing a juicy, hibiscus-accented berry mélange, with thyme and sarsaparilla notes on the finish around fresh tannins. Drink now.” (Vintage 2023).

Hajszan Neumann Zweigelt Nussberg BIODYNAMIC 2015 750ml
Expert Review
91 Points Wine Enthusiast | Fruit of the forest compote notes shine with subtle vanilla on the inviting nose. The palate adds cinnamon spice to these notions and comes in with both concentration and slenderness. Bright freshness gives focus and makes for a mouthwatering finish. An elegant but still fruit-driven Zweigelt.
