This Saturday, we’ve got friends swimming over from SoCo to pour: JAIMEE MOTLEY and Matt Licklider of LIOCO! Jaimee is slinging Massa Vineyard Cabernet alongside fan-favorite (and Savoie darling) Mondeuse. Matt has the coolest of cool-climate Pinot and Chardonnay.

Call your submarine, bring your ☂️ and get down to the shop from 2-5 pm Saturday, Nov. 23! They are pouring alongside Dan Petroski and Tegan Passalacqua to help us raise money for Abode, a non-profit organization committed to ending homelessness in the Bay Area.

For every bottle we sell tomorrow afternoon, we’re donating $5 to Abode. That’s the cost to put a meal on the table for someone less fortunate this season.

See you tomorrow!

This Saturday, come meet Tegan Passalacqua of SANDLANDS and taste the fruit of three own-rooted, 100+ year-old vineyards in Lodi. Tegan’s pouring his Red Table Wine, a blend of his own Kirschenmann Zinfandel, the oldest Cinsault in the world, and Carignan from a site planted in 1900.

Tegan’s the top resource on old-vine California vineyards in our time!

SATURDAY, NOV 23. 2-5pm.

We invited four of our fave local vintners and winemakers to take part in this year’s Thanksgiving Sale!

Meet the vintners, taste their wines, and help out! For every bottle we sell, we’re donating $5 to Abode, a non-profit committed to ending homelessness in the Bay Area. Every $5 donation buys one meal for un-housed members of our community.

Mark your calendar, get some great wines for the holiday, and help put food on the table for someone less fortunate this season.

A big thanks to Dan from Massican, Matt and Sara from Lioco, Tegan of Sandlands, and Jaimee Motley for making this possible! Y’all rule.

Today, natural and orange wines are hip. The two categories frequently overlap and produce no end of discussion and debate amongst wine drinkers, but they are at once historic and here to stay.

The modern origins of orange—or skin-contact white wines—can be found in the Friulian region of Collio, where Italy and Slovenia meet. At the turn of the 21st century, Joško Gravner led a local revolt against modern enological practices and returned to old techniques and indigenous varieties. He fashioned some of the modern era’s first “orange” wines from the Ribolla Gialla grape, and imported qvevri amphorae—ancient vessels for wine—from Georgia. His wines ferment and slumber for years underground in these terracotta containers before bottling and release. And he eliminated inputs, like yeasts and other additives, save for scant amounts of sulfur.

Long before orange wines became a fixture of by-the-glass lists in New York and California, Gravner’s singular wines won raves and admiration from sommeliers, critics, and collectors worldwide.

Today, Joško is in his 70s. His daughter Mateja Gravner has been running the family winery for years, and she is grooming her son Gregor to follow in his grandfather’s footsteps. We are beyond excited to welcome Mateja to Compline Wine Shop to show off her family’s production—triumphant expressions of natural wines, orange and red, literally grounded in the past.

Join Mateja for a seated, guided flight of five wines:

2009 Breg Rosso (Pignolo)
2007 Breg Rosso (Pignolo)
2015 Ribolla
2016 Ribolla
2010 Ribolla “R” (out of magnum)

Time: 6:30-8pm

WED 10/23 - PORT MASTERCLASS with DANIEL NIEPOORT

If you’ve ever wanted to learn more about the world’s most important fortified wine, now’s your chance! The house of Niepoort has been producing Port since 1842, and Daniel represents the sixth generation of his family to make these wines. His father Dirk catapulted the rather unknown estate to stardom in this millennium, and Daniel has been Niepoort’s Head Winemaker since 2021.

Dirk championed dry wines of the Douro, and Daniel is similarly steering the house in new directions with an interest in natural wine. But the foundation and core of Niepoort is Porto. Explore the entire range of Port production with Daniel and discover the differences between the numerous styles of fortified wines produced in the Douro today. You’ll taste an arc of three decades of aging in both cask-aged (Tawny) Port and bottle-aged (vintage) Port.

Don’t miss this!

We’ll be tasting:
White port + Tonic Cocktail
Ruby Port
10-Year-Old Tawny
20-Year-Old Tawny
30-Year-Old Tawny
Late-Bottled Vintage 2019
Colheita 2009
Vintage Port 2022
Vintage Port 1992

Tickets are $150 each—reserve your space at our link in bio.

This tasting is going to be EPIC. 8 wines for $100. Wednesday Oct. 16 at 6:30pm. 🇦🇹

Centuries ago, the sweet wines of Austria—which arguably included Tokaj—were among the world’s greatest wines. But not many remember Ruster Ausbruch or Gumpoldskirchen now.

The modern success stories of Austrian wine also started with sweet wines in the late 1980s, when Alois Kracher achieved international recognition for his botrytized wines, made in the Seewinkel region near the Hungarian border.

The dry white wines of the Wachau, made from Riesling and the indigenous Grüner Veltliner grape, represented the next wave of Austrian wine to gain critical and commercial acclaim. A small contingent of estates—many of whom were members of the young Vinea Wachau organization—led this charge, including Hirtzberger, Knoll, and FX Pichler.

Finally, the red wines of Austria caught up. The warm climate of Burgenland and the Blaufränkisch grape took center stage, and one winemaker is almost single-handedly responsible for raising the bar: Roland Velich of Moric.

Join for a seated, guided flight focusing on modern Austrian legends: Kracher, Hirtzberger, Knoll, FX Pichler, Veyder-Malberg, and Moric. We’ll pour eight wines in chronological order and help you to explore the names and wines that returned Austrian wine to the world stage.

Bodega Chacra put Patagonia on the world’s wine map.

Piero Incisa della Rocchetta, the grandson of Sassicaia’s creator, founded this domaine in 2004 and has become the most celebrated producer of Pinot Noir in South America.

Meet Piero Incisa at Compline and drink six of his wines, including a tasting of single-vineyard Pinot Noir produced from ungrafted vines planted in 1932, 1945, and 1955.

Bodega Chacra has also become an incredible producer of Chardonnay, thanks to Jean-Marc Roulot, who helps to guide the style of the estate’s white wines. We’ll start the evening at Compline Wine Shop with a tasting of two Chacra Chardonnay bottlings, and finish at Compline Restaurant with a communal asado dinner and the Pinot Noir lineup!

The Wine Shop Tasting - 7pm

2022 “Mainque” Chardonnay
2023 Estate Chardonnay
2022 “Barda” Pinot Noir

The Restaurant Dinner - 7:45pm

Laurent Tribut Chablis 22 by the glass. (Until it’s gone.) $30 for a glass, $39 for the flight.

It’s Dane’s last week at the wine shop! He’s been the beating heart of our shop and a member of the Compline team since (before) day 1. Dane slang bottles at the restaurant while waiting for the shop to open its doors two years ago, helped us win the sprint and stock the shelves for opening day, and he’s been the consummate host at our tasting bar ever since. We will miss him greatly and wish him well as he takes his next steps!! We’re marking the end of an era at the shop this Friday night and opening his fave beverage—CHAMPAGNE. Come hang with Dane from 7-9pm on Friday, Nov. 22. We’re got bubbly by the glass and tacos from @chef_edwinrobles to pair with the champers. Come down and say goodbye in style!🥂

💫 Thanksgiving pairing alert 💫 In which Peter shares his favorites for a bunch of the things on a classic Thanksgiving table. Come down to the shop to stock up for yours!

Tonight! Taste all 18 DACs. Tickets at link in bio. $40 We have six spots left. We promise we will talk about something else next month 😂🇦🇹

Has this been independently verified? 🤔 Why get in the way of a good story. What IS true is that Rosalia got DAC status in 2018 for rosé and red wines and there are only 8 wineries in this tiny DAC. Your only chance of trying it, short of flying to Burgenland, is to come to our DAC walkaround tasting on Wednesday, Nov. 13. Thanks to Simon for the “suitcase bottles”… Tickets to the DAC tasting at link in bio! 🇦🇹

Vienna sounds pretty good today! Wiener Gemischter Satz is the DAC for white field blends produced within the city limits. They can be more or less aromatic depending on the producer’s decision to include grapes like Gewurztraminer or Riesling in the harvest.

Despite what the IG captions may think, Neusiedlersee is definitely not in New Zealand… But it is a great spot for Zweigelt and dessert wines affected by noble rot!

SCHNEEBERG!

Keep on keeping on that Danube DAC cruise! Peter with the Kamptal fun facts.

Traisental DAC: Grüner and Riesling The producers here suggest it’s as cold as the Spitzer Graben in the Wachau, and that the valley floor can’t be planted due to frost concerns.

WHO’S THE BOSS… of Blaufränkisch? Get yours DACs straight all month long at the wine shop. 🇦🇹
