ROLL CALL: time to highlight some of the bottles on .frank.wine ‘s! Fancy Summer Sample pack. More than $400 of favorites for $300. Of you’re looking to explore the latest/greatest or check in on some old school classics, cough it up for one of these cases. You’re sure to find some new favorites.

ROSÉ: Domaine Hauvette Les Baux de Provence Rose Petra 2021 (Provence, France): Founded by a former lawyer, Dominique Hauvette, this tiny six hectare estate turns out some of the region’s best reds, whites and of course, rosés. This isn’t your typical nice-but-harmless Provençal pink stuff, as pleasant as that may be. This version is more robust, more flavorful, a bit darker in color. It’s a little more serious, but just as delicious. And it ages beautifully. So much so that I always try to buy the oldest vintage I can get my hands on. If you’ve ever thought “rosé can’t age” give this one a try and tell us what you think.

Grapes: cinsault, syrah, grenache

REGULAR PRICE: $43.99

UPDATE: WE ARE STAYING OPEN UNTIL 6pm on the 4th!!

Come by for wine, spirits and ciders from a range of producers - some sort of big and whole lot that are tiny. Our focus runs the gamut from in-the-know natural producers you’ve seen blowing up IG to classics that may have slipped your mind. We have produces from almost literally next door as well as from half way around the world. Big bottles, little bottles, boxes and pouches and cans… we have pretty much everything you could need… and a whole lot that you never knew you needed.

Come check us out… we are conveniently located in the center of everything in the middle of nowhere!

It’s a brand new feature – and we’re getting the entire shop team in on the fun!

ONE BOTTLE, THREE WAYS: We pick one bottle and each member of the wine shop team tastes it and writes their own note, their own way. Some bottles we'll all love. Some... not so much. Hopefully this is an entertaining glimpse into how professional wine people talk and think about wine in their own terms - and how a single bottle can be many things depending on who's doing the drinking and thinking.

THE BOTTLE: Danilo Thomain Enfer d'Arvier Rosso 2022 (Valle d'Aoste, Italy): $37.99

Stuart’s POV: Velvet Elvis paintings are involved. And an A+ word: beguiling.

POV: Goldilocks, sponges, and pillowy tannins, oh my! And another swath of velvet (but alas, no Elvis here!)
frank.wine POV: A reminder that this wine may seem French, but it’s actually Italian. And a Dante reference.

Head over to CopakeWineWorks.com for the full notes.

SPOILER ALERT: We all really loved this bottle.

Add a bottle to your PERMA-CASE, or get one started with a bottle or two. This wine won’t stick around for long – and when it’s gone, it’s gone until the next vintage is released next year.

05/13/2024

Tis the season! Our spring sampler cases are ready and waiting. The $150 selection and Christy’s $300 picks. Wines you never knew you needed, with tasting notes included.

We have your Kosher of Passover wines ready and waiting!

From Israel, France, Morocco… and wherever the oh-so-traditional Manischewitz is from. (New York… pretty sure it’s from NY.) Check out our online shop for the full list.

These wines are varied and tasty and a good reminder that no where in any book is it written that kosher wine can’t be good. And keep in mind… we are closed on Monday, so Sunday at 6pm is officially the last minute for kosher wine in Copake.

Also worth noting… none of our bottles (except maybe that Manischewitz is mevushal. If you don’t know what that means, it probably doesn’t matter. And if you do know? Then you’ll know if you need to worry about that for your specific Kosher situation.

03/30/2024

Hippety Hoppity hurry up to the shop. Because we’re closed tomorrow, Easter Sunday. And we’re closed on Monday because… we are always closed on Monday!

We have plenty of liquidity to go with your lamb or ham or whatever you are eating tomorrow, whether it’s an official easter feast or otherwise.

Read the full story of our offer over at copakewineworks.com. But to keep it tight here in square feed, we’ll drop .frank.wine ‘s notes for the wines we have left – which happen to make an excellent trio. The Texture Like Sun is a juicy, sneaky-serious crushable red. The Mark of Cain Pinot Meunier is a lovely, perfumed peek into what’s happening in the Adelaide Hills. And Where’s the Pope? is a glorious example of how beautifully a light hand in the cellar pairs with sunshine-y McLaren Vale syrah picked on the earlier side of the season.

The Notes:

Texture Like The Sun - Sector Red 7 2020: Lovely fruit with a bit of aromatic pink peppercorn spice. It’s juicy and sunny and bright and gulpable and just the thing to make the winter go a little faster. 2nd day notes: A tangerine dream enters into the equation - this lovely bit of orange citrus juice pops up. Sun-warmed strawberry with just a wee touch of fresh earth.

Mark of Cain Pinot Meunier 2020: There’s happy red fruit + a saline/earthy character that’s pretty irresistible. My exact notes: recalls the grape in sparkling versions but red. And still. And with a whole lot of sunshine. I don’t have 2nd day notes on this one, but my guess is that it opened up into deep pink fruit – like rhubarb studded with a pink peppercorn savory character, the tension and energy remining, but with the fruit broadening and cuddling it in a satiny little jacket. Michelle Pfeiffer singing Cool Rider in Grease 2? Yup – that would be it.

Where's the Pope Syrah 2020: The soil for this one is schist and that comes through in a subtle mineral edge. It falls firmly into that “savory syrah” bucket, with plenty of black pepper spice, black olives, black roses and deep purple vibes. It’s vibrant with structure from acidity and whole bunches, but the sunshine shines through. 2nd day notes: It opened up beautifully. It’s like a salad of crushed dried violets and black olives, sprinkled with black pepper and drizzled with the most divine black raspberry jus. (I couldn’t really tell you what a jus is, but the sommeliers in my tasting group always mention it in pairing recommendations and it always sounds divine!)

01/13/2024

That’s a wrap for today. Still no power and it’s getting dark. We will be back at it Sunday at noon.

01/10/2024

Here we go again!!

This time it’s the power. It’s out. (If you’re up here, you probably already know this. So get off your phone and save your battery life!!!!)

NYSEG hasn’t posted expected return times, so we’re just going to call it and say we are closed for the day.

If you were thinking about doing a Dry January, consider this our gift to you. (Although we do have some no-alcohol wine, so that’s our other gift to you!)

And if your January is damp or full-on monsoon, we will see you tomorrow (Thursday)… NYSEG-willing!

Stay warm. Stay safe.

01/07/2024

UPDATE: We are indeed here and open til 4PM! Come say hi!

SUNDAY, January 7th.

Are we open today? Um…. we’re not entirely sure about that. We’re aiming for 1pm to 4pm. Opening a little late to see how this latest flurry plans out. And closing a bit early to get home before it gets too dark.

BUT… please call first just to be sure!!

And of course, our web site is always open if you want to grab some goodies for later!

01/07/2024

Soon to be arrivals from - our neighbors up in Copake land, or more specifically, the Roeliff Jansen river basin. Or something like that. Fruit is from the FLX, 2022 vintage and the wine is made just round the bend. - we will try to keep some around until your next shift!

Shook Ones Sparkling Muscat: No secret I love a good muscat! This one is bubbly with about two weeks of skin contacts to build in some phenolic texture. It sits somewhere between a clementine and a tangerine, with loads of the pithy goodness to chew on and a sort of tonic-y spritziness. Good depth and concentration. I usually find myself saying that muscat tasting like spring time in a glass, but this one, it’s winter weight – just the thing to get us through mud season.

The Blessing of Saint-Maur Riesling: Texture that’s a managed to combine silken sheets, mountain stream crystalline water and a bit of tangerine/pink grapefruit tang. 9.9% alcohol… but the wine feels quite substantial. Texture-wise, it reminds me of first vintage of riesling but that one leaned a bit more stony and this one has a bit more fruit.

Gravitiy’s Rainbow Cab Franc Rose: really likes this one. And so do I! Whole cluster carbo kicks off the fermentation and gives this a juicy jolly-ranchers-growing-on-trees character. We’re already well down the path of “it’s always rose season!” but if I had to assign a season to this one, it would be mud season, when we could all use something bright and cheery to get us through the doldrums. If we’re getting geeky with our references, this reminds me of a Cesanese from Lazio or given the cooler climate, a Chiaretto from Italy’s more northerly lands.

In the Beginning Noriet: Spicy!!! Hello white pepper. If I were blind tasting this in my uber-geeky, endlessly-charming tasting group, I would guess pelaverga based on aroma then lean to pineau d’aunis on structure (I SAID it was an uber geeky tasting group! I would be wrong but happy. It has the silky, slippery, sleek tannic structure typical of many hybrid reds. The structure comes from acidity and the aromas of strawberry, white pepper and roses are so compelling.

New Years hours. We have loads of bubbles to see you through 2023. You just have to get them by 6pm. And then we’ll see you in 2024!!

12/28/2023

IT'S TIME TO TALK ABOUT BUBBLES

Tis the season when all good retailers send out obligatory "buy bubbles" messages. So here goes: IT'S TIME TO BUY BUBBLES!

Is there really any more to say? Yes, there's more... Like you shouldn't wait until the holidays to drink something sparkling. You should drink it year round. Whenever you want. And not just for big celebrations. Because sparkling wine is just wine with bubbles. And it's delicious. And more varied than you might think. And goes with all sorts of foods... and... and... and...
.. and anyway... we know you're here looking for something festive to pop open during holiday celebrations. So check out our full line-up of sparklers at the link about. We have a a range of styles, prices, regions, and grapes. We're sure you'll find something to make your holiday sparkle.

And hopefully, you'll be tempted to pop something open more frequently.

A NOTE ON THE PHOTO: this is one of my favorite wine shop photos ever. It’s from my first tasting, back in the Frankly Wines days, with of . It was a joyful hour (or two??) of introduction to champagnes that to this day remain the core of our champagne selection.

We do not lie… .frank.wine ‘s $300 sampler case is stocked with goodies. It may be too late to have one sent to your in time for Xmas, but if you’re in Copake land, we have them ready and waiting.

Big applause to for nailing the holiday-disco-ball-explosion vibe!!!

I've never really gotten over the heady, flor-inflected wall of scent that hit me as I walked down the stairs, into basement den at the Ace Hotel back in 2012. It was the first ever Sherryfest, a dream of an event created by and . It was back before Instagram had become all the rage and the visual had started to take over the narrative. Blogs were still a thing and iphones existed – so surely there are less than artfully filtered photos somewhere of that scene. But mainly, it exists in my memory - that feeling of walking out of the stairwell and into that wallpaper-lined, sherry-infused, dimly lit basement filled with Spanish and Spaniards and a much younger New York wine trade. Sherry still hasn’t quite happened, but for those of us that were there, we’ll always have .

Meanwhile, I keep buying the stuff and loving the stuff and trying to convince anyone who will listen or sip to give it a try.

To that end, I’ve gathered up all of the shop’s flor-inflected bottles and have finally figured out how to put the web site's discount code system to use. If you buy any four bottles, you'll get a 15% discount. The deal lasts through August 31st. The discount should be applied automatically at check out, but if it isn't, don’t worry - we'll spot your flor-laden shopping cart and apply it manually.

And for the pedantic among you, yes, I know some of the bottles don’t actually involve flor. But whatever. Back in 2012, we probably wouldn't have called it a vibe. But it was. And it is. So just go with it.
