A running edit of my favorite bottles that are worth every sip. I have tried each one and these are my top picks!
This French wine is a stunning Grenache-dominated blend coming from a historic region that has been used for winemaking for centuries. Ripe red and black berries, cocoa, black pepper, and morello cherry make this wine feel warm and inviting for the f...
Domaine de la Solitude Chateaneuf du Pape, 2021
For anyone who thinks they hate Chardonnay: zero oak & zero butter might make you rethink. Just crisp green apple, lemon, and French minerality!
Domaine Chatelain Chablis, 2024
The first wine I ever splurged on, this Brunello di Montalcino is full of smooth red and purple fruits and some spice. Pairs wonderfully with pasta & red sauce, hard aged cheeses, and pork.
Argiano Brunello di Montalcino, 2020
A $30 baby Barolo. Super pale ruby in the glass, smells like fresh strawberries and dried roses, and pairs with literally any pasta.
Renato Ratti Ochetti Nebbiolo 2023
Ripe blackberry, plum, and just enough oak spice to feel cozy. High acid and juicy fruit. The ultimate casual weeknight Italian food pairing!
Gianfranco Alessandria Barbera d'Alba
Tastes like toasted walnuts, dried figs, orange peel, and warm vanilla. Aged for a decade in oak casks along the Douro.
Graham's 10 Year Old Tawny Port
100% Loire Cabernet Franc that tastes like crunchy raspberries, fresh violets, and flint. Light, silky, and begging for a slight chill!
Donatien Bahuaud Les Grands Mortiers Vouvray
Grown directly on the lava slopes of Mount Etna. Think grapefruit, tart green apple, and pure sea salt minerality. If you love Chablis or crisp Sauvignon Blanc, this will be your new obsession. (3.9★ on Vivino)
