Happy Saturday all!

Swing in today to try some really lovely wines to ease you into Spring.

2020 Le Terre di Stefano Massone Gavi Masera, Italy, $15

Like a sunbeam in a bottle, this Cortese is all about zippy lemon zest, crisp green apple, and a whisper of white flowers. Think of it as the love child of a mountain stream and an orchard. The minerality? Sharper than your mother-in-law’s wit. A perfect match for seafood, sunshine, and smugly knowing you picked the best bottle on the table.

2022 Taking Root Blanc de Cabernet, Republic of Moldova, $14

Proof that Cabernet isn’t just for brooding red lovers. This cheeky white flips the script with bursts of ripe peach, citrus zest, and a hint of tropical mischief. Silky yet refreshingly crisp, like a summer breeze through a vineyard. Pairs well with seafood, charcuterie, and blowing the minds of friends who think Cab only comes in one color.

2022 Bieler Père & Fils Bandol Rosé, Le Castellet, France, $14

This is not your average patio pink. This Mourvedre, Grenache, Cinsault blend is a serious rosé with a wild streak. Juicy peach, wild strawberry, and a whisper of Provençal herbs glide over a backbone of crisp minerality. Elegant yet rebellious, like a French Riviera sunset in a glass. Pairs perfectly with seafood, laughter, and pretending you live in a villa.

2022 D.O. Jumilla, Wrongo Dongo Monastrell, Spain, $13

Big, bold, and unapologetically juicy, this Monastrell is like a fistful of ripe blackberries and plums, dusted with smoky spice and a hint of leather. Silky tannins keep it smooth, but there’s just enough wild energy to make you wonder if you should’ve ordered a second bottle (spoiler: you should). Perfect for BBQ, late-night debates, and proving that “Wrongo Dongo” is actually so right.

Here until 8pm so stop by and say hi.
