Happy Halloween! This Friday’s tasting is shaping up to be one for the books. We’re welcoming in our bud Peter from Alain Junguenet Selections, to pour an absolutely bonkers lineup from Mas de Boislauzon, including two Chateauneuf-du-Papes!

For lovers of the southern Rhône, Mas de Boislauzon has it all. Six generations of winemaking, organically farmed old-vines spread out over a number of different terroirs in Chateauneuf and Côtes du Rhône, and a hyper-focused portfolio of wines that range from the everyday to the exceptional.

Our lineup will include the rare Chateauneuf-du-Pape blanc, the lovable, crushable “La Chaussynette” rouge, a super serious Côtes du Rhône made from 70-year-old vines, and the heavenly masterpiece that is the Famile Chaussy Chateauneuf.

Come start your November with a bang. We’re popping the good stuff!

We’ve got another phenomenal Italian producer to introduce you to this Friday! From 5:00-7:00 we’ll be pouring three wines from Tiberio, an exciting young winery in Abruzzo doing amazing work with their old-vine Trebbiano and Montepulciano.

With the exception of a few legendary estates like Valentini and Emidio Pepe, Abruzzo has long suffered a reputation for producing only cheap, inoffensive Montepulciano wines in bulk. Christiana Tiberio and her brother Antonio represent a new wave of ambitious growers and winemakers helping to push the quality level forward here.

The lineup will include the flagship Trebbiano, a super delish Cerasuolo (one of our fave OG categories for chillable red) and the always impressive Montepulciano bottling.

Come by and check out the future of Abruzzo with us. These are the real deal!

This Fridays tasting will see us heading to the far north-eastern reaches of Italy to highlight the wines of i Clivi, a small estate in Friuli, working organically with ancient, indigenous grapes and non-interventionist winemaking. The wines produced here are subtle, energetic, and extremely versatile. We can’t wait to pour them for you!

The tasting includes the sparkling Ribolla Gialla, their flagship Friulano, and two quintessential fall reds - Schioppettino and Cabernet Franc.

We kick things off at 5. Get the weekend started right with us!

Beyond Pinot Noir! New fall favorites from Oregon’s Evening Land Vineyards 🌲 🌲 🌲

Raj and Sashi (of Domaine de la Côte/Sandhi fame) have their Pinot Noir totally dialed in at Seven Springs, one of Oregons most coveted and historic vineyards in the Eola-Amity Hills, but their work with the site’s old vine-Chardonnay and Gamay cannot be overlooked either. The vineyard was established in the mid 80’s under the direction of Burgundian legend Dominique Lafon, and the wines from here are steeped in a bit of that same elegant, old-world charm. We’re excited to get them in your glass soon. Email offer incoming 🍷 📧

It’s been an interesting week to be a wine shop in Auburn…

By now many of you have seen or been followed by . What started as a bogus looking page in the first place, with stock internet and AI imaging, has now just blatantly begun to take and post numerous images from our own instagram page. Thank you to everyone who has brought this to our attention over the past number of days.

We thought we had enough people initially report the page, and it looked like it was temporarily shut down, but this thing/scam/bot? doesn’t seem to want to go away. None of it makes much sense, but it’s been pretty darn annoying as you can all imagine.

We kindly ask that if you can access the page, to please report it as fraudulent and that it’s trying to impersonate our own page. We’d very much like to get back to posting our own content rather than deal with this nonsense, but this is where we’re at. We greatly appreciate it!

It’s Yann season out here.

New (and v limited) arrivals from our favorite flat top in Fleurie, . First access is through our email offer, dropping tomorrow morning. Click the buttons, buy the wine, take the ride.

08/24/2024

LIOCO vibe check.

Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and old-vine Carignan sourced from a smattering of organic, dry-farmed vineyards in and around Sonoma and Mendocino.

Accessible, balanced, delicious Cali classics that always deliver ✅

Mikulski cremant is a vibe. One of the more elusive, non-Champagne sparklers we repeatedly ask for year in and year out, has suddenly reappeared in all of its crystalline, Mikulskian glory. A relatively young domaine (est 1992) who has quietly gained an insanely culty following for their chiseled, nuanced (not to mention impossible to find) Meursault wines. The cremant is roughly equal parts Chard and Pinot, with a healthy splash of Aligote for good measure. Nice full mousse, pure fruit and a fresh mineral core. Easy to wrap your head around and great bubbles to saber and drink often 🍾 🗡️

08/15/2024

New orange stuff from our favorite natty Alsatian collective, Pirouettes. 12 day Gewürztraminer skin ferment. Hazy, fuzzy, spicy. Honeysuckle and rose. This is the Willie Nelson of orange wine.

08/14/2024

Keeping it real in the Rheinhessen. A rare offering from Weingut Keller. 2023 new arrivals. Coming soon.

08/07/2024

New Redbyrd is the best Redbyrd. Excited to have four new cuvées from in the mix, including the first ever “still” version of one of our OG faves, Cloudsplitter! Let’s have a week.

We’ve got a pretty special lineup on deck for our next Meet the Winemaker tasting this Friday featuring our bud !

We’ve made a lot of fans with Ian’s wines here over the years, from his small batch pet nats and single-vineyard Rieslings under his own Barry Family Cellars label, and more recently through his work at , where Ian and his team experiment with an array of “ancient-style” clay and stone winemaking vessels. It’s been so fun to have these wines in the conversation lately and we can’t wait to introduce some new ones with Ian behind the bar this Friday!

Drop in anytime from 5:00 - 7:00 p.m. to taste the following wines:

Barry Family Cellars Chardonnay Reserve 2021
Barry Family Cellars Pinot Gris Ramato 2021
Six Eighty Cellars Riesling Cocciopesto 2022
Six Eighty Cellars Pinot Meunier Rosé Pet-Nat 2021
Six Eighty Cellars Pinot Noir 2022

Beautiful day for a tasting! Julia and Alex will be here from 5:00-7:00 pouring the latest and greatest. It’s gonna be a fun one ☀️

07/14/2024

It is with great excitement that we announce a string of consecutive “Meet the Winemaker” tastings for the next three Fridays here at the shop! This will be a really fun opportunity to come down and hang with some of the peeps that are behind the bottles you already know and love, all produced right in our own backyard!

It’s an exciting (and challenging) time to be making wine in the Finger Lakes. While our conversation could obviously include a few dozen wineries that are really helping to push the quality level forward here, it’s always a little extra special when we get to invite our friends in to share their wines and stories with us.

Stay tuned for deets on who will be pouring what and mark those calendars. Tastings run from 5:00 - 7:00 p.m.

The return of our favorite little OG pet nat from Domaine Sulauze in Provence. Biodynamic Vermentino and Ugni Blanc grown on limestone. Chalky mineral notes, pithy citrus, and suPER crunchy acidity. The first pet net I ever tried nearly ten years ago is still delicious as ever. One of the absolute greats of the category.

The 2017 Para Maria from @stolpmanvineyards is the perfect snow day red. 80% Syrah/20% Petit Verdot done with partial carbonic maceration. Incredible freshness for what you might assume to be a monster of a blend. This should turn your snow frown upside down. 🦉☃️🦉☃️🦉☃️ #santabarbara #stolpman #ballardcanyon #syrah #petitverdot #nightowl #snowowl #owls
