Feudi di San Gregorio Falanghina del Sannio 2024 750ml
Feudi di San Gregorio · Falanghina del Sannio DOC · 2024
Feudi di San Gregorio is one of the standard-bearers of modern Campanian winemaking, known for bringing the region’s ancient indigenous grapes to a wider audience. This Falanghina comes from the volcanic soils of Sannio in Campania’s Benevento province, where the variety has long been cultivated.
Brilliant straw yellow with green reflections, it opens with jasmine, acacia honey, lemon, lime blossom, subtle nutmeg, salt, and wet stone. Lively acidity keeps the medium-bodied palate fresh and precise, while a lightly honeyed texture carries into a clean, mineral finish.
Expert Reviews — James Suckling & Wine Enthusiast (2023 vintage)
James Suckling: 91 points
“Aromas of apples, precise fresh fruit and flowers. Light- to medium-bodied, it shows freshness with some silkiness and savory length. Full flavored for a falanghina.”Wine Enthusiast: 91 points
“The nose energizes with aromas of lemon, lime, white flowers and crushed rocks. The palate contrasts with a leading note of bitter almond skin, which pushes the citrus towards an orange peel feel, but a drizzle of honey provides balance and sets up a finish of orange blossom honey that unifies and creates a round, filling mouthfeel.”

Louis Latour Macon Lugny Les Genievres 2024 750ml (Pre-Sale - Introductory Offer ETA 10/2/2026)
Maison Louis Latour has been one of Burgundy's most trusted names since 1797, and their Mâcon-Lugny "Les Genièvres" is a perennial benchmark for what southern Burgundy Chardonnay can be at an honest price. The vineyard sits high in the village of Lugny — one of the Mâcon region's most celebrated white wine communes, prized for its limestone soils and warm, sun-drenched climate. Lugny was, in fact, one of the only villages in the region planted exclusively with Chardonnay three decades ago, a testament to how well-suited the terroir is to the grape.
The 2024 opens with a brilliant pale gold color and an expressive, floral nose: acacia, honeysuckle, and a delicate thread of vanilla. On the palate it's round and generous, with ripe yellow fruit — peach, golden apple — and an elegant, lingering finish. Unoaked and approachable, this is the kind of white Burgundy that over-delivers at every turn.

Castello Monaci Primitivo Piluna 2023 750ml
Castello Monaci Primitivo Piluna — Salento, Apulia 2023
Castello Monaci is one of Apulia's most storied estates, and Piluna — named for the ancient clay vessel once used to store water and wine — is its benchmark expression of Primitivo. Sourced from vineyards surrounding the historic estate in Salento, where dry clay, volcanic gravel, and limestone soils force vines deep in search of water, the wine delivers the rich, concentrated character that makes southern Italian Primitivo one of the world's most compelling value reds. James Suckling awarded it 90 points. At $14.99, it is one of Italy's most honest overachievers.
The nose opens with broad, ripe black fruit, sour cherries, sultanas, dried oranges, and sweet spices, with notes of pepper, toasty vanilla, and Mediterranean scrub. On the palate, it is robust and concentrated with a jammy, lightly sweet-sour character, ripe tannins, and a lingering finish of small black fruit and licorice. Harvested by hand before dawn to preserve sugar levels, then aged 6 months in a blend of stainless steel and 2nd and 3rd use French oak.

Dolin Vermouth De Chambery DRY 750ml
Dolin Vermouth de Chambery Dry — Savoie, France 750ml
The benchmark of French dry vermouth — Dolin Vermouth de Chambéry Dry has been crafted in the Alpine town of Chambéry since 1821, earning its place as the go-to vermouth for discerning bartenders and home mixologists worldwide. Light, floral, and impeccably balanced, it elevates every cocktail it touches without ever overpowering.
The Producer
Founded in 1821, Dolin is one of the oldest and most respected vermouth houses in France, and the only producer still based in Chambéry — the historic heartland of French vermouth. Their Dry expression is made from a delicate white wine base infused with more than 30 Alpine herbs and botanicals, selected and blended using traditional methods that have remained largely unchanged for two centuries. Dolin holds the coveted IGP Vermouth de Chambéry designation, the only vermouth appellation in France.
Tasting Profile
Pale straw with a luminous clarity. The nose is delicate and aromatic — fresh Alpine herbs, white flowers, citrus zest, and subtle spice. On the palate it’s light, clean, and refreshingly dry with a complex yet understated botanical character and a crisp, lingering finish. Elegant rather than assertive — the hallmark of great dry vermouth.
Cocktail Applications
- Classic Martini: The gold standard — Dolin’s light profile lets the gin or vodka shine while adding essential complexity
- Fifty-Fifty Martini: Equal parts gin and Dolin Dry for a more vermouth-forward, nuanced cocktail

- On its own: Chilled, over ice with a citrus twist — a classic French aperitif style
- Cooking: Adds depth to sauces, risottos, and seafood dishes

Bodegas Perica Vina Olagosa 67 Wine Crianza Rioja 2020 750ml
Our Professional Review — Oscar Garcia Moncada
In September 2022, I had the pleasure of traveling to Rioja, Spain, to visit one of my favorite producers: Bodegas Perica. Located in the picturesque village of San Asensio in La Rioja Alta, Bodegas Perica has been a bastion of winemaking tradition for three generations. The winery was in the midst of harvest, and I was fortunate enough to participate—gaining firsthand insight into the rigorous grape selection process that defines Bodegas Perica’s approach.
Anyone who has experienced a wine harvest understands the backbreaking labor involved in hand-harvesting: long hours, quick reflexes, and relentless speed. Yet despite the physical demands, the reward is undeniable—gathering at the end of the day to share a hearty meal and plenty of wine with a community united by purpose and passion.
David García Ábalos, the current owner of Bodegas Perica, and Zigor Cornago García, Director of Commerce, graciously gave me a personal tour of the winery, cellar, and production facilities. Perica stands out for using only estate-grown grapes from its own vineyards—a true commitment to quality and terroir. The winery also ages its Crianzas in 225-liter French oak barrels, and notably, many of its wines undergo extended aging beyond the minimum requirements set by the Rioja DOCa.
Founded in 1912 by Don Juan García, Bodegas Perica now cultivates over 150 hectares of vineyards in the prestigious Rioja Alta subregion, known for producing some of the finest expressions of Tempranillo.
This visit was especially meaningful to me, as it culminated in a tasting straight from the barrel to select the next wine for a private label project with 67Wine. After exploring a range of vintages and barrels, I ultimately chose the 2020 vintage. For me, it hit all the right notes—vibrant fruit, layered aromas, balanced structure, integrated tannins, and just the right touch of acidity. This wine is layered with nuances of tobacco, perfectly matured red fruit, and a touch of vanilla.
This superb Crianza, aged for up to 16 months in barrel followed by further aging in bottle, overdelivers in both quality and value. It drinks more like a Reserva—a testament to the exceptional fruit quality grown in Viña Olagosa in La Rioja Alta and to the meticulous work of the Bodegas Perica winemaking team.
Tasting Notes
Color: Medium garnet
Nose: Enticing aromas of red and black fruit — strawberries, raspberries, black cherry, and blackberry — with subtle hints of tobacco, cedar, and vanilla.
Palate: Medium-bodied with great balance. Acidity, tannins, and alcohol are all in harmony. Black cherry, strawberries, and raspberries intermingle with notes of tobacco, dried mushrooms, and a touch of eucalyptus.
Finish: Clean and pleasant with a long-lasting mouthfeel.
Oscar Garcia Moncada, 67Wine
Food Pairings
Steaks, grilled tuna, roasted poultry, BBQ, and burgers.

Bogle Sauvignon Blanc California 2024 750ml

The 2024 vintage is sourced from cool-climate California vineyards, fermented in stainless steel to preserve the grape's natural aromatics and deliver the clean, vibrant character that has made this bottling an Editors' Choice selection year after year.
The nose is fresh and aromatic: citrus blossom, honeysuckle, white peach, and cut grass, with hints of key lime and fresh herbs. On the palate, the wine is crisp and textural, with flavors of lemon verbena, white nectarine, and guava, building toward a fleshy mid-palate and a dry, lingering finish of wet stone and citrus. It is clean, refreshing, and endlessly food-friendly.

Greywacke Sauvignon Blanc Wairau Valley Marlborough 2025 750ml
Greywacke Sauvignon Blanc — Wairau Valley, Marlborough, New Zealand 2025
Greywacke is the personal project of Kevin Judd — the winemaker who spent two decades building Cloudy Bay into one of the world's most recognized Sauvignon Blanc brands before striking out on his own. Named after the hard, dark stone that forms the riverbeds of Marlborough, Greywacke is a small-production estate focused on wines of genuine depth and site specificity. The Wairau Valley Sauvignon Blanc is their benchmark expression: harvested largely by machine during cool, often cold night-time conditions, picked earlier than normal over a three-week period commencing 16 March, transported directly to the winery in the Omaka Valley, lightly pressed for high-quality juice, and left on lees on individual vineyard batches until late June before blending. Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc with the volume turned down a notch — and all the better for it.
The 2025 pours a pale, luminous gold. The nose is vibrant and aromatic — lemon blossom, honeydew melon, orange blossom, passion fruit, white pineapple, kumquat, and lime sherbet, delicately infused with herb garden botanicals and a flourish of elderflower and wildflowers. On the palate, sleek and smooth with mid-palate richness, juicy lemon, steely cassis, beeswax, brine, and a generously textured finish with impressive structure and depth. Crunchy New Zealand acidity, savory phenolics, and a clean, lingering close.
- Producer: Greywacke (Kevin Judd)
- Appellation: Wairau Valley, Marlborough, New Zealand

- James Suckling — 93 pts: Flavorful, focused and textural — papayas, limes and stones on the nose. Medium-bodied with bright acidity. Lively and succulent, with a precise palate and a long finish.
Bodegas Martinez Lacuesta Hinia Rioja Reserva 2014 750ml
Bodegas Martinez Lacuesta Hinia — Rioja Reserva 2014
Bodegas Martinez Lacuesta is one of Haro's most storied producers, crafting wines in the historic heart of Rioja Alta since 1895. Hinia — named for the fossilized shells found in the vineyard soils, remnants of an ancient sea that once covered the entire region — is a homage to the refined, classic wines that made Haro famous. A traditional Rioja blend of Tempranillo, Graciano, and Mazuelo, it was aged for 36 months in American oak with natural alcoholic and malolactic fermentation, producing a wine of genuine complexity and elegance.
Deep cherry red in the glass with an aromatic nose of ripe black fruit, spiced plums, tobacco leaf, balsamic, and a seductive layer of vanilla, caramel, and chocolate from the extended oak aging. On the palate, it is full-bodied with palate-coating tannins, vibrant citrus zest energy, and a long, persistent finish of ripe cherry and vanilla blossom. Balanced, opulent, and built to last.

MacRostie Winery and Vineyards Chardonnay Sonoma Coast 2023 750ml
MacRostie Winery and Vineyards Chardonnay Sonoma Coast 2023 — Sonoma Coast, California
MacRostie Winery and Vineyards has been one of Sonoma Coast’s most dedicated Chardonnay producers since 1987, when Steve MacRostie began crafting wines that prioritized site expression over winemaking intervention. The Sonoma Coast AVA — with its cool Pacific-influenced climate, morning fog, and well-drained hillside soils — is one of California’s premier addresses for Chardonnay, producing wines with the kind of natural acidity and aromatic complexity that sets them apart from warmer inland bottlings.
The 2023 opens with beautiful aromas of tropical fruit, melon, and perfumed lemon mingling with hints of slate, wet chalk, and intriguing floral notes of jasmine and orange blossom. On the velvety palate, pineapple and guava give way to layers of stone fruit, Key lime pie, Asian pear, and yellow apple, all flowing to a long, luxurious finish. James Suckling awarded it 90 points, noting “plenty of ripe, succulent fruit on a full body and a smooth, rounded texture.”

Domaine Ott BY OTT Cotes de Provence ROSE 2025 750ml
Domaines Ott BY OTT Côtes de Provence Rosé — Provence 2025
Domaines Ott is the founding dynasty of Provence rosé — a family that has shaped the identity of the appellation for 130 years, since Marcel Ott established the estate in the late 19th century. From Château de Selle to Clos Mireille to Château Romassan, the Ott family has patiently crafted a singular vision of rosé rooted in three terroirs, two appellations, and an uncompromising pursuit of authenticity. BY OTT is their entry into the Côtes de Provence AOC — grown organically from estate vineyards and carefully selected partner growers nestled between land and sea. The 2025 blend is 60% Grenache, 25% Cinsault, 7% Mourvèdre, 4% Syrah, and 4% Rolle — each variety playing a precise role: Grenache for texture and generous fruitiness, Cinsault for freshness, Syrah, Mourvèdre, and Rolle for depth and length. Three terroirs, one shared light.
The color is a beautiful pastel pink with soft rosewood tints — luminous and distinctly Provençal. The nose is fresh and enticing: red berries, citrus fruits, and white blossom, with the generous, sun-drenched character of the 2025 vintage. On the palate, it is luscious and fruity with a smooth, silky mouthfeel — fresh citrus zest weaving through the mid-palate and accompanying a persistent, elegant finish. This is Provence rosé as Domaines Ott has always envisioned it: vibrant, nuanced, and luminous.
“Enticing, fresh and generous — this rosé wine combines our winegrowing savoir-faire with the vibrant essence of Provence.” — Jean-François Ott

Etz Gruner Veltliner 2025 1.0L LITER
Etz Grüner Veltliner — Kamptal, Austria 2025
The story behind this bottle is one of the great underdog moments in Austrian wine. Franz Etz farms 30 hectares of vineyards in the Kamptal — one of Austria's most celebrated regions for Grüner Veltliner — and produces wines of quiet, consistent excellence. Then came the blind tasting: 14 of the world's top sommeliers, 600 Grüner Veltliners entered, and Franz Etz's wine came out on top. The recognition that followed led him to create a special 1.0L bottling of his fruit specifically for the U.S. market — a generous format designed to share, and priced to make it an easy yes at any table.
The Etz Grüner Veltliner 2025 pours a pale, bright straw. The nose is clean and classically Kamptal — citrus, green apple, white pepper, and a subtle mineral lift from the region's loess and primary rock soils. On the palate, it's refreshing and well-structured with lively acidity, a dry, focused mid-palate, and a crisp, lingering finish. Everything Grüner Veltliner should be: precise, food-friendly, and endlessly drinkable.

Kimich Riesling Kabinett Trocken Deidesheimer Herrgottsacker Pfalz 2024 1Liter
Our Professional Review
Rand Sieger 67Wine.com | This is the lemonade of wine. A super fresh and juicy summer quaffer to have with all your lighter summer foods. The first aromas that come up from the glass are crushed lilies of the valley and white pepper, followed
by citrus and fresh pineapple. Dry, lean, fresh and juicy on the palate.
Winemaker Description
A liter of the raciest, most energetic and appealingly mineralische Riesling imaginable. Alc: 12% Residual sugar: 7,5 g/ltr Acidity: 7,6 g/ltr Must weight: 88° Oechsle Harvest on 26th of September 2019, Temperature controlled fermentation in stainless steel. On the fine yeast until bottling in stainless steel tanks (26th of February 2021) Bright yellow colour with green highlights; in the nose aromas of apple, yellow stone fruits and freshness; on the palate very harmonic, totally dry and refreshing.
Deidesheimer Herrgottsacker is a single vineyard site with a size of 121 hectares. 10% of the vineyard site is steep, 20% hilly and 70% are flat. The soil varies between sandy loam and loamy sand, mixed with limestone rocks and red sandstone. The name “Herrgottsacker” is probably derived from the word “Gottesacker” (which is a former word for cementery) andThis interpretation from Kimich, a small, traditional, 8th generation estate, is an absurd value in the liter bottle (33% more wine)!
