Jaboulet Parrelele 45 Cotes Du Rhone Blanc This featured wine is a great alternative to the Chardonnay you always buy. It comes from the iconic Rhone Valley producer, Paul Jaboulet Aine, who has been producing excellent wines in the region since 1834. Its character is robust with flavors of candied citrus peels, stone fruit, almond, thyme and acacia. Ombu Mendoza Valley Malbec This Malbec is one of our favorites for a full-bodied red wine at a great value. It’s floral on the nose, supple on the palate and beautifully balanced. Pair it with a decadent charcuterie board and great company! Moon Twist Sauvignon Blanc A juicy Sauv Blanc fresh from the famous Marlborough region of New Zealand… say less! Its palate gives out bright flavors of gooseberry, grapefruit and pleasant tropical flavors of mango and passionfruit. Pair this one with soft cheeses and a great view. Caposaldo Prosecco Sparkling wine is sure to give any night a celebratory feel. Caposaldo Prosecco blends a handcrafted, artisanal approach to winemaking with cutting-edge quality standards and techniques. Its plush mid-palate is framed with floral aromas and pleasant stone fruit flavors. Pair this pick with your favorite dessert! Graham Beck Brut Rosé Graham Beck Brut Rosé is the definition of bang for your buck! Its abundant mouth is loaded with red berry flavors culminating in a clean, fresh finish. Plus, the Graham Beck brand is famous for its South African sparkling wines. We even wrote this spotlight to showcase everything we love about the incredible company! Pomerols H.B. Languedoc Rosé Another rosé that is way too worthy of a feature! This salmon-hued beauty is made of 100% Grenache with limpid and bright character.
