Brian: Groppello - 2022 Podere Selva Capuzza 'San Biagio', Garda, Italy
Escape the dreary winter streets of NYC and be instantly transported to beautiful Lake Garda in northern Italy. Nestled just West of Verona and South of the Italian Alps, this wine truly hails from heaven on earth. Sip on this easy-drinking, savory red and feel the warm mountain breeze wisp across your palate. Enjoy this wine with our charcuterie selection for a special treat.

Ann: Voskehat - 2020 Zulal, Vayots Dzor, Armenia
Certain wines can take on the essence of people and when I first took a sip of this wine it reminded me of everyone’s first movie crush Miss Honey from Matilda. This Voskehat is just simply pretty. So many tropical notes laced between honeysuckle and a subtle herbal backbone to hold it all together. The scene that specifically plays in my mind is when Matilda and Miss Honey sit down and have a picnic and they are both happy and what better to pair with the sunshine, happiness, and whimsy than a stunning wine like this. We aren’t QUITE to spring picnic weather but we sure are on the way. Suspend your disbelief for one night and pretend you’re having a picnic with Miss Honey. Then grapple with the fact that you both wanted to date her and have her adopt you and be your mother.

Xamarie: Vertzami - 2019 Brousko, Lefkada Island, Greece
Sip into the allure of Lefkada with Vertzami, a rare grape dancing between Greece and Cyprus. Picture the cliffs of Porto Katsiki meeting the deep, dark embrace of this wine. In each glass, discover a seaside escape embodied by black fruits – a symphony of raspberries and plums. Just like the traditional villages on the east coast, it unfolds with a herbal touch, creating a forest of flavors. The alcohol warms your senses, a comforting companion for wintry nights.

Kiri: Criolla Grande - 2021 Alpamanta ‘Breva’, Mendoza, Argentina
Spring has sprung and this Pétillant Natural is too lush and delicious to ignore! Organic and biodynamic with flavours of cherries, currants, and tart cranberries, it brings me back to wild berry picking in Europe. Juicy yet dry, flirty and thriving, a glass of this in hand will add a pep to your step as the days grow ever warmer.
