Eight generations and over 170 years later, Hayotzer combines this extraordinary heritage with the terroir of Israel's finest wine regions and Philippe's winemaking artistry.

At Robert Craig Winery we have always celebrated wines that invite wine lovers into high levels of quality without punitive prices. Such is the case with our “L Fleur” Cabernet Sauvignon that is a blend of young vine lots from our Napa Valley Estate vineyards on Howell Mountain and Mount Veeder along with spectacular fruit from a singular property owned by friends in Sonoma County’s Dry Creek Valley. Just as “Flor de Pingus” and La Fleur Petrus are indicative o second tier offerings, so it goes with our La Fleur Cabernet Sauvignon.
The 2023 Robert Craig Winery La Fleur Cabernet Sauvignon exhibits deep, saturated color along with spicy, black fruit up front and a sturdy backbone of mineral and tannin. A significant amount of time in new French Oak barrels have rounded out the edges of this young Cabernet and given it a suppleness and integration that can’t be found with less expensive American oak or the dreaded barrel stave flavor treatment.
The 2023 Robert Craig "La Fleur Craig" Cabernet Sauvignon is a distinct, multi-appellation blend designed to offer Robert Craig’s signature mountain-grown quality at a more accessible price point.
The name "La Fleur" is a nod to famous "second wines" from Bordeaux (like La Fleur-Pétrus or Flor de Pingus), signaling that while this isn't the primary estate bottling, it shares the same pedigree and winemaking team.
Our La Fleur Cabernet is supple enough to enjoy immediately though it has the structure to benefit from additional cellaring.

Vinous 90 Points | The 2020 Citran is fortunately showing less reduction on the nose than it did from barrel, revealing blackberry and briary scents, touches of graphite and pressed iris flower.

Jeb Dunnuck 90 Points | Red and black fruits, spice, saddle leather, and tobacco leaf notes all emerge from the 2020 Château Citran, a rock-solid, medium-bodied, balanced Haut-Médoc. It has the pure, focused, nicely structured style of the vintage and is going to evolve for 15 years or more.
James Suckling 89+ Points | A firm, racy wine with crushed-berry, walnut and spice character. Medium body and firm finish. A little austere now.
Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc
The 2020 Château Citran is a "rock-solid" representative of the Haut-Médoc, benefiting significantly from what many critics consider a legendary Bordeaux vintage. Historically one of the oldest estates in the Médoc, Citran is known for delivering classic, structured Left Bank profiles without the "Grand Cru" price tag.
Château Citran is currently owned by the Merlaut family (who also own the famed Chasse-Spleen). Their expertise in the Haut-Médoc shows through in the 2020—it offers the "saddle leather" and "cedar wood" complexity usually reserved for much more expensive bottles from nearby Margaux.
Pairing: This is a classic "meat and potatoes" wine. It pairs exceptionally well with grilled steak, lamb chops, or a hearty mushroom stew.
The Faiveley family has been rooted in Burgundy for nearly two centuries — seven generations of winemakers whose values have remained unchanged: a deep attachment to the region, an instinctive passion for terroir, and an innate respect for the land and the people who work it. Today, Domaine Faiveley is one of the largest estate owners in Burgundy, with holdings spanning the Côte de Nuits to the Côte Chalonnaise, producing some of the appellation’s most polished and collectible whites and reds. The Bourgogne Blanc is crafted from a blend of estate-grown Chardonnay and carefully selected fruit from trusted organic growers, matured for 8 to 10 months in the domaine’s cellars in Nuits-Saint-Georges, with a portion aged in oak barrels depending on the vintage. At $39.99, this is classic white Burgundy from one of the region’s most respected houses — exceptional quality for the appellation.
Brilliant pale greenish-yellow in the glass with an expressive, inviting nose of white flowers, ripe citrus, and a subtle mineral thread. On the palate: bold and generous on the attack, with good volume and a beautifully balanced structure — white stone fruit, lemon zest, and a creamy texture from the partial oak aging, finishing with exceptional length and persistence for a Bourgogne Blanc. Drink now through 2028. Pair with roast chicken, grilled sole, scallops, soft-ripened cheeses, or a simple plate of charcuterie.
Seven generations in Burgundy — Faiveley’s Bourgogne Blanc is classic white Burgundy at its most honest.

Psagot Winery was founded in 2003 by Yaakov Berg on the peaks of the Jerusalem Mountains — Psagot means “summit” in Hebrew — at 750 metres elevation, where vines are planted directly into terraced soft limestone bedrock. During construction, Yaakov discovered a cave beneath the winery dating to the Second Temple period, complete with an ancient wine press and period coins — one of which is reproduced on every bottle, connecting each glass to over two thousand years of winemaking history on this land. The M Series denotes Mevushal — flash-pasteurized under strict kosher supervision — making it suitable for the widest range of kosher catering, restaurant, and event settings. At $29.99, it is one of Israel’s most compelling kosher Chardonnay values.
The wine opens with appealing aromas of pear, green apple, and tropical fruit, with a signature minerality drawn from the limestone bedrock terroir. On the palate, it is crisp and elegant with a mellow oak influence, bright acidity, and a clean, food-friendly finish. Harvested from high-altitude vineyards that preserve freshness and precision in every vintage.
"Aromas and flavors of pear, green apple, and tropical fruit, with a mellow oak influence that keeps it elegant and food-friendly. Signature minerality from 750-metre limestone terroir." — Winemaker Notes (Vintage 2024)
A Mevushal kosher Chardonnay from one of Israel’s most storied high-altitude estates — Psagot is the benchmark for what Jerusalem Mountains limestone terroir can deliver in a glass.
The 2021 Vincent Girardin Saint Romain "Les Vieilles Vignes" is a standout example of why Saint Romain is often called Burgundy’s best-kept secret. Sitting at higher elevation than its famous neighbors in Meursault, Saint Romain produces wines with a signature bracing freshness and vivid minerality that set them apart from the richer, more opulent whites of the Côte de Beaune.
The "Vieilles Vignes" (Old Vines) designation indicates grapes from vines averaging 50+ years old — adding a layer of concentration and depth that younger vines simply cannot match. The result is a Chardonnay of real precision: taut, mineral-driven, and built to age.

Memo Summary Notes
That's a very specific and excellent sherry! The Tio Pepe Una Palma Fino Saca 2021 is part of a special, limited-edition collection of Fino and Amontillado sherries from González Byass in Jerez.
Here is a summary of the details for this particular release:
🌟 Key Characteristics
* Type: Fino Sherry
* Producer: González Byass (Tío Pepe)
* Origin: D.O. Jerez-Xérès-Sherry, Spain
* Grape: 100% Palomino Fino
* Ageing: Approximately 6 years under a dense layer of flor (a veil of yeast) through the traditional Solera system.
* Saca (Bottling Release): 2021 (Bottled in October 2021)
* Style: "Una Palma" (One Palm) indicates it's the youngest and freshest in the "Las Palmas" series, but still an older and more intense Fino than the standard Tio Pepe. It is typically bottled "en rama" (unfiltered or lightly filtered) to retain maximum flavor and character.
* Bottle Size: 500ml (50cl)
* The Saca 2021 is celebrated for its concentration, intensity, and purity of the flor character:
* Appearance: Pale yellow to bright golden color.
* Nose: Intense and powerful, dominated by yeasty notes from the flor (like fresh bread or brioche), combined with aromas of almonds/nuts, chalk/talc, seaweed/brine, and sometimes a hint of bruised or green apple.
* Palate: Bone-dry, full-bodied, fresh, and intensely salty (saline) and savory. It offers flavors of green olives, hazelnuts, and a persistent, slightly bitter, yet balanced finish.
* Overall: It is an intense, concentrated, and very dry sherry that beautifully captures the essence of prolonged biological aging.
* 🍽️ Pairing
This Fino is an ideal aperitif and pairs wonderfully with:
* Traditional Spanish Tapas: Almonds, olives, Jamón Ibérico.
* Seafood: Anchovies, sushi, sashimi, smoked fish.
* Complex Dishes: Artichokes, asparagus, and Asian cuisine, which can be difficult to pair with other wines.
Vinous 94 Points | The 2022 Riesling Terrassen Smaragd is from 20- to 60-year-old vines planted on higher parcels at 250-350 meters. The nose has something of an eau de Cologne sense, with its conifer and citrus spice. The palate is super slender, very linear and uncompromisingly fresh, without a suspicion of fat or any opulence. This treads a thin line on perfect tiptoe. There is a weightless quality here. This is brimming with lemon and utterly fresh.
The Wine Spectator 93 Points | With fullness to the lychee, green plum and quince flavors, this delicious, mouthcoating and salty white is laced with baking spice notes. Stays elegant and well-defined despite its plump profile, offering zesty clementine acidity, with dried sage and fresh-cut grass notes bringing a savory dimension. Drink now through 2032.
Wachau Riesling is dry and often defined by high levels of dry extract (due to a lengthy ripening period) and a pleasing freshness (due to dramatic temperature swings between day and night). Soils of primary rock from various terraced sites give this dry Riesling subtle minerality accompanied by aromas and flavors of citrus and stone fruit.
Riesling’s high acidity makes it one of the most versatile wines at the table. Riesling can be used to cut the fattiness of foods such as pork or sausages and can tame a certain amount of saltiness. Conversely, it can highlight foods such as fish or vegetables in the same way a squeeze of lemon or a vinaigrette can.
Rudi Pichler is among the elite growers of the Wachau producing wines of precision, power, and longevity. Grüner Veltliner and Riesling make up 95% of the production with the remaining 5% shared between Weißburgunder and Roter Veltliner. Rudi Pichler belongs to the prestigious Vinea Wachau and vinifies under the strict parameters of their codex.
Yields are kept low between 30 and 35 hectoliters per hectare with botrytis carefully removed by hand. Grapes are crushed by foot and receive between three and 36 hours of maceration on the skins. Vinification is entirely in stainless-steel tanks and malolactic fermentation is avoided.
Weingut Rudi Pichler consists of 37 acres spread between Wösendorf, Joching, and Weißenkirchen where south-facing terraces look down at the Danube River. Terrassen indicates it is a cuvée from multiple terraced sites. Smaragd is a term used by Vinea Wachau members indicating a dry wine with a minimum alcohol of 12.5%.
Very fresh and delicate nose with citric and floral notes. On the palate, the wine shows great texture and minerality, with excellent acidity and complexity.
Because of the Arinto grape’s natural high acidity, this wine is fantastic for food pairing. The best pairings are richer seafood dishes such as Portuguese bacalhau (salt cod), scallops in citrus butter sauce, oysters, lobster or crab dishes. Japanese food, spicy food, curry and grilled vegetables are also wonderful pairing options.
The Wine Advocate 91 Points | The white 2022 Quíbia was produced with 60% Premsal and 40% Giró Ros and sold as a generic wine without appellation because of the use of the Giró Ros grape. It matured with lees in stainless steel before being bottled. It has 12.9% alcohol and good freshness. Unfortunately, it feels quite reductive and is difficult to read on the nose, but the palate feels vibrant and fresher. Give it a little bit of time.
The 2022 is celebrated for blending aromatic fruit with a refreshing, savory quality:
Color: Enticing straw-lemon with greenish highlights.
Aromas: A delightful mix of ripe white peach, pear, jasmine, and the striking note of sea brine or crushed seashells. You may also find subtle hints of Meyer lemon and green mango.
Palate: Crisp, lively, and well-balanced. The wine delivers concentrated flavors of ripe peach,
Anjou pear, and citrus zest. Reviewers often mention a silky, almost olive oil-like texture and a savory note of capers or green almond.
Salinity: A distinct salinity runs through the wine, acting as a complex counterpoint to the fruit, which makes it incredibly versatile with food.
Ànima Negra was founded in 1994 when two self-taught friends — Pere Ignasi Obrador and Miquelàngel Cerdà — decided that the wines of their native Mallorca weren’t reaching full potential.
Taking advantage of some unused milk tanks at the dairy farm owned by Pere’s family, they made two barriques of wine from Callet grapes (a native Mallorcan varietal) they’d purchased from local farmers. The initial results were so encouraging that the friends decided to form a partnership and continue pursuing their newly found passion for wine.
Situated in the southeast of Mallorca, Ànima Negra winery produces its wines on the old country estate of Son Burguera, close to the town of Felanitx. The buildings date back to the 13th century, and contain a traditional winemaking area, which historically was used to supply wine for locals living on and near the estate.
Ànima Negra sources its grapes from more than 135 carefully selected parcels of land that the partners either own or control. Virtually all of these parcels are within a six-mile radius of the winery, and most of the vines are 50 to 85 years old.
Tenuta delle Terre Nere is one of Sicily’s most celebrated and visionary organic estates — a winery that has done more than almost any other producer to reveal the extraordinary potential of Mount Etna as a world-class wine region. Founded by Marco de Grazia after over forty years of passion in the world of fine wines, the estate sits on this island within an island: an extreme volcanic landscape at altitudes of 2,100 to 2,900 feet above sea level where hot sun, cool breeze, and cold nights combine to produce wines of exceptional finesse and elegance. Ancient lava soils, pre-phylloxera old vines, certified organic farming, and an unfined, unfiltered winemaking philosophy focused on expressing the refined and multifaceted microcosm of this ancient volcanic terroir make Terre Nere the benchmark for Etna Rosso. The 2024 earned 94 Points from James Suckling and 92 Points from Wine Spectator.
The nose is perfumed and precise: crushed stones, plum, cherry, dried lavender, rosemary, pureed raspberry, blood orange peel, and clove, with a hint of vanilla, cream, and fresh herbs. On the palate, the wine is medium-bodied and silky with juicy acidity, chewy but polished tannins, light sandy texture, and a long mineral-laced finish. It is elegant, complex, and deeply satisfying — the kind of volcanic Sicilian red that disappears fast and rewards patience in the cellar in equal measure.
"Crushed stones with plums, cherries and just a hint of vanilla and cream. Medium-bodied, showing fresh herbs and a touch of flower stems. Chewy tannins, but polished and very drinkable." — James Suckling, 94 Points. (Vintage 2024).
"A perfumed red, with dried lavender and rosemary notes wafting through flavors of pureed raspberry, plum sauce, blood orange peel and clove. Silky in texture, with juicy acidity and light, sandy tannins firming the mineral-laced finish. Drink now through 2033." — Wine Spectator, 92 Points. (Vintage 2024).
Sicily’s benchmark Etna Rosso at an honest price — Tenuta delle Terre Nere is the standard for what old-vine, organic, volcanic Nerello Mascalese from Etna can deliver.
Domaine De Souch. Located at the foot of the Pyrenees, near the Atlantic Ocean, at an altitude of 332 meters above sea level. This is where the pure, crisp wines of Domaine De Souch are produced. Winemaker Yvonne Hegoburu was 60 years old when she decided to start making wine here in 1987. At the time, she was one of the first to work entirely biodynamically in the region. Today, she owns 7 hectares of land; the vineyards face south and are largely planted with Petit Manseng and Gros Manseng.
Yvonne Hegoburu, who passed away in 2023 at the age of 95, was living proof that it is never too late to follow your winemaking dreams. It all started when Yvonne and her husband René purchased 16 hectares of land in the Jurançon region in southwest France. The couple lived together in the small hilltop village of Laroin until 1987, when René unexpectedly passed away. Yvonne recalled how the duo would fervently discuss their winemaking dreams; in her husband’s honor, she decided to pursue viticulture for the first time at the age of 60. Today, Domaine de Souch is comprised of 7 hectares of biodynamically farmed vines, which have been certified since 1994.
Yvonne was taken by biodynamics early on. She believed that farming without herbicides and pesticides is the truest and most honest form of winemaking. The vines are double guyot trained and rooted into flinty clay soils. All fruit is hand-harvested and comes from south-facing vines grown at 1,000+ feet above sea level. The vineyards are mostly dedicated to Petit Manseng and Gros Manseng, two of southwest France’s most well-known varieties.
Yvonne herself said it best in the acclaimed documentary, Mondovino: “I planted vines when my husband died. Ever since then, all this love inside me, I give it to the vines. I talk to them. I have an exchange with them. I ask them to drive their roots deep down into the soil to get the best from the land.” Yvonne worked the vines tirelessly until 2014, when she handed over the operation of the domaine to her son Jean-René, who continues to make wine in the style of his mother to this day. We are inspired by the Hegoburu family’s robust work ethic and passion for honest viticulture as the domaine continues into the next generation.
The vineyards have been fully biodynamically certified since 1994. The yields are low, never more than 30 hl per hectare, and the soil consists of heavy "flinty" clay called poudingues. This combination results in intense wines with high acidity and exceptional minerality.
The dry jurançon perfectly represents the style of the estate: precise, pure and grandiose. a straight, tense white wine. the attack is lively, the mid-palate is incredibly intense and the finish never ceases to delight us. the blend of native grape varieties is judiciously developed for a stunning result. its aging potential is certain.
For over thirty-five years, Domaine de Souch has been a pioneer in producing modern-style Jurançon wines. Certified organic and biodynamic since 1994, their south-facing terraced vineyards are nestled on steep slopes with views of the Pyrenees Mountains.
The Domaine de Souch "Cuvée Monplaisir" Jurançon Sec 2024 is a standout white wine from one of the most soulful estates in Southwest France. The winery was famously founded by Yvonne Hegoburu, who began her winemaking journey at the age of 60 in honor of her late husband and became a pioneer of biodynamics in the region.
The ultimate partner for shellfish (oysters, crab, lobster). It also cuts beautifully through the richness of sheep’s milk cheeses (like Ossau-Iraty), grilled trout, or summer salads with citrus vinaigrettes.
Albillo is the soul of Ribera del Duero's white winemaking — a grape long prized by legendary producers like Vega Sicilia for the aromatic intensity it lends to their reds. At Bodegas Valduero, it takes center stage. The Valduero Blanco de Albillo Ribera del Duero 2025 is widely regarded as one of the finest 100% Albillo bottlings in the appellation: simultaneously rich and light, with a rare balance of fruit generosity and mineral precision.
Behind this wine is a unique family trio — Gregorio García Álvarez alongside siblings Yolanda and Carolina García Viadero — the first generation of winemakers to carry the Valduero name. Their commitment to the Albillo variety is a quiet act of preservation, honoring a grape that has shaped Ribera del Duero for centuries.
In the glass, the 2025 shows a very light straw color, a testament to the variety's natural resistance to oxidation. The nose is fresh and expressive, with pineapple, grapefruit, and the characteristic floral lift of Albillo. On the palate, it is beautifully balanced — neither heavy nor austere — with a clean, mineral-driven finish that lingers.
Falstaff 92 Points | Bright, radiant ruby red. Elegant nose, reminiscent of cut flowers, raspberry and some paprika powder. Delicate, youthful on the palate, with a pleasant acidity. The finish is long and mineral. Clean mouthfeel.
This Pet Nat from Straka is 100% Welschriesling fermented naturally in the ancestral method. The second fermentation occurs naturally inside the bottle creating trapped CO2. Bubbles!
At a low 12% alcohol this mineral yet fruit driven expression of the main white grape of Burgenland is eminently thirst quenching. As with all the Straka wines, the farming is organic, the intervention in the cellar minimal with no additions.
The 84 year old family estate is located in the Eisenberg district of Burgenland. The Eisenberg is a unique geological area where the foothills of the Alps meet the Pannonian lowlands and is comprised of metamorphic, magmatic rock and cristal schist.
One of only 3 places in the world with this soil composition. The deep rooted vines naturally show a distinct mineral character and a compelling purity of fruit.
Combined with the attention to farming and careful hand harvesting the Straka wines are a true find.

The Wine Enthusiast 94 Points | Dusty slate and earth tones mingle into luscious guava and pink-grapefruit flavors in this decadently fruity kabinett. A sumptuous semi-dry Riesling, it's profoundly ripe and deeply concentrated but zippy and spry, finishing on a long, honeyed streak of lime and lemon acidity. Delicious young but should hold well through 2035.

James Suckling 93 Points | Manzoni bianco is a super fresh grape variety, a valuable resource in view of the rising temperatures in this era of climate change. Aromas of pears, white peaches, lime peel and lemon leaves. It’s soft on the palate, with a silky texture, sharp acidity, peach flavors and a polished finish in spite of its citrus peel aftertaste.

Overview Musar Jeune White vines are from organically certified vineyards and come from two different terroirs; Vermentino and Chardonnay are grown on limestone soils, while the Viognier comes from vineyards with silty soils. Both vineyard areas are at 1,000
metres above sea level.
Grape Varieties The 2022 vintage is a blend of Viognier (40%), Vermentino (30%) and Chardonnay
(30%). The Vermentino, native to Sardinia and Corsica and thus well suited to the
Eastern Mediterranean climate, adds citrus, mineral and even a marine character. It
is moderate in alcohol and combines well with the richer Chardonnay and fragrance
of the Viognier.

White Burgundy is typified by aromas and flavors of green apple and lemon and is defined by its structure and expression of minerality. This wine is a synthesis of finesse and freshness that is enhanced by the fruitiness that Chardonnay can bring.
Pair with fish in white sauces, warm shellfish, hard cheese, or on it's own as an aperitif.
The 2022 Nerello Mascalese Pirrera is impossible to ignore. It blends crushed blackberries with lavender pastille and hints of candied citrus and spice. This is zesty, with a reverberation of brisk acidity and masses of mineral-doused wild berry fruits. The 2022 finishes with medium length and a chalky concentration, leaving the cheeks puckered with youthful poise as hints of tart blackberry slowly taper off.
Kimberly Vineyard is the epitome of Goldilocks-climate Merlot. It marries the lavish, ripe fruit of a warm site with the elegance and structure of a cool locale.
Dominant character traits include blackberry, anise, cassis and dried currants. Below that is a bed of juicy black fruit and supple, silky tannins. While it drinks well now, this Merlot will continue to evolve and improve over the next decade.
The Wine Enthusiast by Kara Newman 91 Points | This Sardinian vermouth has a straw hue and bold tropical fruit aromas. The palate opens and closes with toasted coconut and vanilla sweetness, plus a pineapple hint midpalate.
Crafted on the island of Sardinia, Silvio Carta’s “Servito” Vermouth Bianco is a fragrant, Mediterranean expression of the classic aperitif. This 750ml bottling is infused with local botanicals such as myrtle, sage, and citrus peels, layered over a base of Vernaccia wine. It’s elegantly floral and herbaceous, with a subtle sweetness and vibrant, coastal freshness. Enjoy it chilled, over ice with a lemon twist, or as a base for a distinctly Sardinian spritz.
Gvaot Dances in White is a spicy and aromatic Gewurztraminer combined with Sauvignon Blanc and cold fermented Chardonnay.
Great with Thai or Chinese-style stir-fry dishes, salads and aged cheese. A versatile dinner wine but also excellent on its own.
