Uplands Cheese - Pleasant Ridge Reserve, Wisconsin (priced per ounce)

Uplands Cheese - Rush Creek Reserve
For those with a more intimate gathering, Rush Creek Reserve brings the Vacherin magic but at a smaller denomination, roughly 12 ounces. This Wisconsin delight is from Uplands, the makers of our popular Alpine Cheese, Pleasant Ridge Reserve. It has all of the dense textures and savory autumn flavors of a Fall Classic.
- Cheesemonger Martin Johnson
------------------
Produced only in the fall, as the diet of our cows begins to change from summer pasture to the winter’s dry hay. This rich milk is perfect for a cheese like Rush Creek, so soft and decadent that it’s often referred to as savory custard. Each cheese is wrapped in spruce bark, which gives shape to the cheese and imparts a subtle woodsy flavor.
Before serving Rush Creek, bring the cheese to room temp or warm it gently in an oven. When using an oven, remove the paper wrapping and either wrap the cheese in tin foil or cover it in a ceramic crock. Place the cheese in a 250-degree oven for approximately 45 minutes, or until the entire cheese becomes soft and warm.
Use a knife to cut around the perimeter of the cheese, just above the bark. Lift off the rind and scoop out the soft interior with a spoon. The rich, savory flavors are deep but delicate, and pair nicely with cured meats, roasted root vegetables and off-dry white wines.

Vadio Bairrada Vinho Tinto 2020 750ml
Our Professional Review
Debra of 67Wine.com | Fresh berry fruits, currants, really pleasant and enjoyable with many foods.
Winemaker Description
Located one-hundred kilometers south of Porto in northern Portugal, Bairrada was once relegated to supplying grapes for Port wine when demand was high in England. The region is now in the midst of establishing its own wine making identity and young producers like Luis Patrao are using indigenous varieties in that pursuit.
Baga is the main red grape of the region and displays a firm and assertive character. In Vadio (slang for idler, dreamer), the vineyards are farmed organically and the fermentation derived from naturally occurring yeasts. This creates an atmosphere conducive for the variety to fully display its sinewy red fruits, cedary side notes and high-energy acid lift. A wholesaler's need to make room for the next vintage led to a fortuitous purchase and the following deal for you!
Vago Mezcal Espadin by Emigdio Jarquin El Nanche Miahuatlan 102.6 Proof 750ml
Producer Description
This mezcal is crafted in the rich, fertile Miahuatlán valley, remotely located a 2.5 hours’ drive south of Oaxaca City at 4,970 ft elevation.
The genetic “mother” of Tequila’s Blue Weber agave, Espadín typically takes 7 – 12 years to mature & is the most prolific species used in mezcal. Terroir and the maker’s hand mean that Espadín styles vary greatly. Vago Espadín by the very modest Emigdio Jarquín was awarded Double Gold & the coveted “Best Mezcal” at the 2019 SFWSC and “Best Mezcal in the World” in the 2020 World Tequila and Mezcal Awards. Emigdio’s Espadín has delicious concentrated agave flavors balanced by smokiness and a spicy/saline minerality loved by critics and consumers alike.
A wonderful expression of a saline and mineral-driven style that has become one of the most highly awarded mezcals in history.
Val di Suga Brunello di Montalcino 2019 375ml HALF BOTTLE
Val di Suga Rosso di Montalcino 2022 750ml
Expert Review - Vintage 2022
Jeb Dunnuck 90 Points | The 2022 Rosso Di Montalcino is a delightful offering. Pouring a youthful ruby color, it reveals a fruity bouquet of candied raspberries, roses, and spiced orange. Medium-bodied, it boasts an elegant mouthfeel, fine tannins, a juicy mid-palate, and a clean finish. It's drinking fantastically now and will continue to drink well over the next 5-6 years.
Vinous 90 Points | The 2022 Rosso di Montalcino is mentholated and fresh, with dried strawberries and crushed stones wafting up from the glass. This is soft-textured and pure in feral form, with ripe red berries and spices cascading throughout. It leaves a gentle tension and crunchy sensation while tapering off poised and with medium length.
Valdespino Deliciosa Manzanilla San Lucar de Barrameda 375ml HALF BOTTLE
Winemaker Description
Very dry, crisp and fresh with a slightly salty finish. Winemaker Description.
Expert Review
Wine & Spirits | Deliciosa grows at the Pago Miraflores in Sanlúcar de Barrameda and it’s typically aged for five years under flor. This lastest saca shows a lovely mix of almond flavors, salt and white fruit, all melding into the wine’s deep mineral notes. It’s substantial enough to serve in the company of blackened redfish.
Valdespino Ynocente Fino Single Vineyard Machardudo Alto 375ml HALF BOTTLES
Points Wine & Spirits | Inocente is Valdespino’s flagship, a wine from the Macharnudo Alto vineyard, where the soil is pure white albariza. It ferments in 600-liter wooden casks without added yeasts, a practice that has become increasingly rare in Jerez. The intensity of the wine’s salinity is remarkable—iodine and salt—coming together with ripe white fruit, scents of nuts and exotic spices. The structure is dry and austere, like drinking the juice of stones. This will last for a decade in the cellar, but it’s impossible to hold onto a bottle if there’s raw seafood nearby.
Points Robert Parker | As with many other wines from the José Estévez group, there is a special bottling of Valdespino's flagship NV Fino Inocente in magnum, but in this case they have kept the bottles for six months as the wine is from the saca otoño 2016, the autumn bottling from 2016. So the wine is offered with some extra bottle age. It has all that you expect from Inocente, a long aging wine fermented in bota from grapes grown exclusively in the Macharnudo Alto vineyard and bottled with an average age of ten years. All the textbook aromas and flavors are there, coupled with the elegance and mineral intensity the Macharnudo white chalky soils provide. Customers who purchase one of this scarce magnums probably know Inocente already. This will have a longer development in bottle.
Valdifalco Morellino di Scansano Organic Biodynamic Toscana 2018 750ml
Winemaker Description

Tannins are strong. Long, warm and soft finish.
Ideal match for local dishes of the Maremma, wild boar and venison meat. It also goes perfectly with Pecorino Toscano DOP. Winemaker Description.
Valduero Blanco de Albillo Ribera del Duero 2023 750ml
Winemaker Description
Albillo is the primary white grape variety of Ribera del Duero and was traditionally blended into red wine by producers such as Vega Sicilia to add aromatic intensity. Valduero makes possibly the best 100% Albillo bottling – simultaneously rich and light with super fresh ruby red and pineapple alongside intricate minerality. It has a very light straw color, thanks to its resistance to oxidative processes. Fruity aromas with a hint of pineapple and grapefruit, unique and characteristic of the Albillo variety. Balanced on the palate.
Valentin Leflaive Champagne Blanc de Blancs a Oger Extra Brut CV/19/30 NV 750ml
Our Professional Review
Oscar Garcia Moncada | 67 Wine: The Leflaive family name boasts a long and distinguished winemaking tradition in Burgundy, making it perfectly fitting for them to extend this tradition north to Champagne. In February, I had the pleasure of tasting through the Valentin Leflaive Champagne lineup and was thoroughly impressed by each cuvée.
Winemaker Description
An elegant, fresh Blanc de Blancs from Valentin Leflaive that offers notes of yellow apples, candied lemons, freshly-baked bread and a clean salinity that lingers in the finish.
Expert Reviews - CV/19/30
James Suckling 93 Points | I like the biscuit and brioche aromas here. Some fig, walnut and apple crumble, too. It’s rich an creamy with delicious, toasty undertones. Rounded yet very fresh finish.
Vinous 92 Points | The NV Extra Brut Blanc de Blancs CV1930 is a pure Chardonnay, with over half of the grapes picked in Vertus, 21% in Cramant and 27% in Bergères-les-Vertus. Based on the 2019 vintage with 56% reserve wines, it was fermented in stainless steel and matured on lees for 39 months. The nose is gently savory, suggesting salty corn husk, while the palate offers a silky mousse that pulses through the slender, sinuous body. This elegant wine leaves no doubt about its Côte des Blancs origins—a quintessential Blanc de Blancs of real elegance. "

Vasse Felix Cabernet Sauvignon 2020 750ml
Warehouse stored item - please allow one to three business days to fulfill.
Wine Enthusiast 95 Points | Vasse Felix's self-titled middle range often represents the best value for money, in this reviewer's opinion. This is both an excellent example of the range's quality as well as of Margaret River's distinctive Cab style. Layered aromas of tangy redcurrant, raspberry and cranberry are woven with pencil lead, new pavement and tobacco leaf. There's a wonderful lift of crunchy currant fruit on the palate, which counterbalances the big smudgy, savory tannins.
Vasse Felix Filius Cabernet Sauvignon 2022 750ml
Warehouse stored item - please allow one to three business days to fulfill.
Wine Enthusiast 96 Points | A fabulous vintage of Filius, and a total bargain for this level of quality. Layered aromas appear from first sniff: plump currants and plums, dark chocolate, savory herbs and florals, graphite and a mineral, iodine-like nuance. In the mouth, there's bright fruit and silky texture, with savory, fine tannins and a long, elegant finish. Made to drink now or to age for several more years. A wonderful intro to this distinctive Aussie style.
VDR CABERNET SAUVIGNON 2021
Warehouse stored item - please allow one to three business days to fulfill.
Tasting Panel 92 Points Befitting its name, this blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Petit Verdot, and Petite Sirah is opaque in hue, but the palate is juicy, glossy, and lusciously crafted, unmasking notes of dark chocolate, sage, and blackberry licorice.
Vecchia Romagna Etichetta Nera Brandy 750ml
Vecchia Romagna Etichetta Nera, or Black Label, Brandy is a luscious Brandy from Italy distilled from Trebbiano grapes. Aged in small oak casks for a total of 3 years, Vecchia Romagna is light on the palate, but with deep and concentrated flavours to deliver a truly refined drinking experience. Suited wonderfully to after dinner alongside a great espresso coffee.
Vega Sicilia Reserva Especial R22 NV 750ml
Expert Reviews - 2022 Release
James Suckling writes 99 Points | Sweet-berry, walnut, licorice and violet aromas that follow through to a full body with round, chewy tannins that are polished and beautiful. Notes of iron, too. The tannins are broad and mouth filling, giving a caressing and exciting texture on the palate. If you give this a year to two to soften, it will deliver even greater richness and flavor. A blend of 2008, 2010 and 2011. Great after 2023.
Luis Gutiérrez of the The Wine Advocate writes 98 Points | The NV Único Reserva Especial 2022 Release is a blend of wines from 2008, 2010 and 2011, mostly Tinto Fino with some Cabernet Sauvignon mixing lots from the Único wines from those years. In the past, the blend was older vintages, but now it's wines that are around the same age as the Único. It has the complexity of mixing terroirs, vintages and grapes with parameters very similar to Único, 14.5% alcohol and good balance with a pH of 3.83 and 5.4 grams of acidity (measured in tartaric acid per liter). In the blend, they look for keeping the style of past blends, combining the more aged notes of the older wines and the freshness of the younger ones. I was very pleasantly surprised by the performance of this Reserva Especial, which seems to be going back to the character of the blends from yesteryear, with more finesse, elegance and nuance. This is perfumed, elegant, harmonious and balanced. It has very fine, already polished tannins and integrated acidity. 2008 and 2010 are cooler years, and they seem to give the blend this freshness and elegance. It has all the components, and especially the balance between all of them, to age nicely in bottle. 16,961 bottles and 201 magnums were filled in June 2018.
Winemaker Description
Unico Reserva Especial bears witness to the past, it pays homage to the history of Spanish wine and their traditions. A non-vintage wine combining the balance between the best vintages and harvests, it faithfully reflects the magic of a legendary land. Unico Reserva Especial 2022 is a blend of the 2008, 2010, and 2011 vintages and a blend of 95 % Tinto Fino (Tempranillo) and 5 % Cabernet Sauvignon. This wine is suitable for drinking now, but it can be aged for up to 40-60 years, if stored in the ideal conditions. It offers an infinite complexity that is gradually revealed, in every sip, the palate immensely silky and elegant. A true work of art!

Intense and dark cherry-red color, with a high robe and ruby red edges. Clean and bright. Highly intense aromas with abundant notes of fruit. Its notes of red and black fruit (prunes, figs, cherries, redcurrant and raspberries) are released along with flower notes and mixed with nice spicy and light toasted nuances.
High load of fruit aromas dominate the palate. It is a lively and crisp, medium-bodied red wine. It shows a light astringency provided by its marked tannins and a good acidity that provides it with deepness. Long and persistent finish.
Ventisquero Grey Glacier Cabernet Sauvignon Trinidad Vineyard Maipo Valley 2021
Expert Review - Vintage 2021
James Suckling 91 Points | Aromas of cassis and ripe blackberries with notes of chocolate, nutmeg, spices and bark. Medium-bodied with juicy character and sleek, polished texture. Tannins are fine and chalky. Flavorful finish.
The Wine Spectator 90 Points | Opens with a toasty vanilla bean and spiced pastry note that clings to the rich wild berry and plum core, which is kept honest by a streak of mineral acidity. Comes together nicely in the end, with a lingering note of chocolate. This is a touch flamboyant, but will have its fans. Drink now through 2028.
The Wine Enthusiast by Jesica Vargas 89 Points | Aged for 18 months in French oak barrels, this Cabernet boasts aromas of vanilla and cocoa bean followed by a note of strawberry. Oak spices repeat on the soft palate and are matched by blackberry and strawberry flavors.
Winemaker Description
Deep red color, with ruby color. With a characteristic fruitiness of Maipo costa, red fruits such as strawberries, raspberries and cassis are mixed with aromas of black pepper, some moist soil and tobacco. Of elegant and smooth body, of balanced structure, good acidity that increases the complexity. Tannins present and soft at the same time, ending with a prolonged end-of-mouth sensation.
Ventolaio Brunello di Montalcino Riserva 2016 750ml

James Suckling 94 Points | Plenty of ripe and fresh fruit with citrus and rose aromas that follow through to a medium body with fine tannins and a bright, vivid finish. Hints of orange-peel and light pie-crust flavors in the aftertaste.
Kerin O'Keefe of the Wine Enthusiast 91 Points | Aromas of black-skinned berries, new leather and spice shape the nose. The chewy palate offers dried black cherry, tobacco and vanilla alongside polished tannins. Drink 2023–2031.
Ventolaio Sentiero del Fante Sangiovese Toscana 2021 750ml
Our Professional Review
Bart Hopkins, 67 Wine Buyer, writes: Wines made from the Sangiovese grape are well adapted to good basic food pairings and serve a very useful purpose at the dinner table, especially one that is as well made as Ventolaio’s 2021 Sentiero del Fante. Dark, savory fruit greets the nose with welcome fanfare and aromatic depth. Rich yet energetic in the mouth, with dark cherry fruit and Tuscan spice is at the center of attention with that certain balance and expressive complexity that tastefully engages what’s on the table with delicious agility. It’s a natural with pizza and pasta, but don’t be afraid to get creative; this is a wine that will enhance a spectrum of flavors and textures. This is what Sangiovese does at its best!
