New from Weingut Ziereisen



Rare Wines from Southern Germany! 
Ziereisen is located in the very southern part of Baden - very close to Switzerland
Once they are gone, they are gone for good!


2020 Weingut Ziereisen - Gutedel (Chasselas) Steinkrügle...$41.99 / 750ml
Chasselas is a native Swiss grape variety that also grows well in Germany, France, and Austria. It is a wonderful wine to pair with seafood, as well as fondue or raclette!
This is lovely, with lemongrass, yellow plum and Jonagold apple flavors seamlessly layered, offset with a quinine hint and carrying through a long, floral finish. A fine representation of the variety, it combining an ethereal feel with an alluring flavor profile. — Aleks Zecevic
Rated 92/100 Wine Enthusiast

2021 Weingut Ziereisen - Tschuppen Blauer Spatburgunder...$26.99 / 750ml
Drink this with a chill!
From loess parcels, the 2021 Spatburgunder (Pinot Noir) TS is from the Tschuppen. The purple-ruby colored wine opens with clear, fresh, well-defined cherry aromas with tart floral notes. Silky, fresh and elegant on the palate, this is a saline, tight and mineral, beautifully refreshing and tart-finishing Pinot Noir with tight but fine tannins and serious mineral acidity. From a remarkable terroir, this is a thirst-quenching Pinot of remarkable character, bone dry but irresistible. 12% stated alcohol. Tasted at the domaine in February 2024.
Rated 92/100 Wine Advocate


Ziereisen is located in the very southern part of Baden in a town called Efringen-Kirchen, directly on the Rhine river at the border of Alsace and Switzerland. The area is called Markgräflerland; another name is the Dreiländereck – the “three country corner”: Basel, Switzerland is the closest city, just 15 kilometers south. Here, Hanspeter and his wife Edel produce outstanding Pinot Noir and Gutedel (Chasselas) as well as a bit of Syrah, Chardonnay, Pinot Gris, and Blanc. We hear the same mantra at this domaine that we hear in all of the top estates that we work with: “Quality is made in the vineyard. We work with utmost care to create the conditions for high-class wines. In the cellar we only do the minimum of work necessary allowing the wines to rest and time to mature. The French swear by their terroir – in this respect I am a Frenchman.” says Hanspeter Ziereisen--Importer






Donnhoff Riesling Niederhauser Trocken




2023 Donhoff Niederhauser Riesling Trocken...$39.99 / 750ml
The wonderful peach and floral aromas that pour from the glass make this super-elegant and super-precise dry Nahe riesling irresistible. Very pure and straight, with a northern coolness that precisely balances the restrained ripeness to create a compelling harmony on the barely medium-bodied palate. Drink or hold.
Rated 95/100 James Suckling

The Dönnhoff family first came to the Nahe region 250 years ago, establishing a traditional farm in the village of Oberhäusen an der Nahe, which included livestock and vegetable gardens in addition to some grape growing. Oberhäusen and this part of the Nahe river valley is very pastoral; it feels far away from the relative hustle and bustle of the Rheingau and wine tourism. The countryside is serene and beautiful, marked by steep hillside vineyards in the succession of villages following the river from Norheim to Niederhausen, through Oberhäusen, ending in Schlössbockelheim.
The Estate has grown to 25 hectares but both father and son feel that this is as large as they want to be; more growth would mean less time in the vineyards and cellar, where they feel most at home and in their element. Cornelius is as thoughtful as his father, Helmut Jr., and the two share the same view on winemaking, viticulture, and taste in wine; balance and “Das ganze ding muss klingen – The whole thing must be sound” are at the center of their philosophy.--Importer

Schrock & Sohne More is More

 


2023 Heidi Schrock & Sohne "More is More" Pinot Blanc...$19.99 / liter
Great white wine for 90+ degree heat! 🥵
Bright floral aromas give way to a beautiful palate of juicy stone fruits and soft textures that would make this wine PERFECT with spicy food or just a fun conversation!
Heidi Schröck (2003 Falstaff Magazine vintner of the year!) took over her family winery in 1983, in the historic village of Rust situated in the province of Burgenland about 5 miles from the Hungarian border. As Heidi explains “South-facing vineyards in a softly rolling landscape form an amphitheater around Rust on Lake Neusiedl bringing forth some of the best and most tradition-rich wines in Austria. Yearly hours of sunshine that lie much higher than the Austrian average combined with sandy soils mixed with clay and high calcium content provide the ideal prerequisites for impressive, full-bodied wines.

Kujira Japanese Whisky

 We are very excited to introduce these amazing Japanese Whiskies! 

They are incredible!


Kujira Ryukyu Whisky

Kujira means ""whale"" in Japanese. The whale is a symbol of liberty, generosity and peace.
The people of Ryukyu and Okinawa consider the whale, the largest creature in the natural world and abundant in the Pacific Ocean surrounding the islands, as the guardian of peace and nature. Just like the whale and the tranquil moments spent in the nature of Okinawa, we wish for you to enjoy our whisky, experiencing a sense of magnificence and serenity.


Kujira Whisky is made from selected Indica rice and utilizes the unique black koji indigenous to this region for saccharification, fermentation, and distillation. It achieves a distinct deep amber-colored whisky that has been matured in oak casks. The Ryukyu Islands are a subtropical archipelago located at the southernmost tip of Japan. The year-round warm and humid climate accelerates the maturation of whisky several times faster than in mild climates, enhancing the unique aroma of rice and creating a rounded body.

Born from the unique terroir and brewing techniques of the Ryukyu Islands, the "Kujira Ryukyu Whisky" represents a new type of spirit that is destined to become a leading presence in the world of whisky.


Kujira Ryukyu Inari Japanese Whisky...$47.99/700ml
"Inari" refers to the god of rice cultivation in Japanese mythology, and is also the ingredient of whale whiskey. The highest quality barrels of Ryukyuan whiskey are carefully selected, and furthermore, the whiskey is hand-selected by the master blender for different maturation periods to achieve a harmonious taste and aroma.

Nose: Apples, pears, tropical fruits, and hints of spices.
Palate: Delicate oaks, figs, nuts, and butterscotch.
Finish: Sweet and long finish, with pleasant fruity, herbal scent and woody texture.

2019 Lingua Franca Estate Chardonnay Bunker Hill
on sale $59.99
was $69.99

The 2019 Chardonnay Bunker Hill comes from vines planted in 1995 by Joel Myer, who replanted the Seven Springs vineyard that same year. Vines are planted at 600 feet in elevation on a windy, western-facing slope and were in need of rehabbing. A 30-year lease allows Lingua Franca to control all the farming, and with the help of Mimi Casteel, they developed an additional 15 acres around the original vines. "Some people would say rip it out and replant it," winemaker Thomas Savre explains. "My team and I wanted to curate it, bring it back to life. So we said let's do selection massale and replant all the components. We extended the original vineyard with 13 clones of Chardonnay, just randomly planted." The Bunker Hill has a layered perfume with scents of white peach, quince, jasmine, beeswax and mushroom. The medium-bodied palate is particularly expressive, with fantastic depth of flavor and expansive savory layers. It has racy, energetic acidity and a touch of texture that extends the finish.

2016 Arista Winery - Arista Chardonnay Russian River Valley
on sale $49.99
was $75.99

Arista Winery was founded in 2002 by Al and Janis McWilliams but is run today by their sons Mark and Ben, who took over the reins in 2012. They’ve brought on board winemaker Matt Courtney, revamped vineyards, and renovated the cellar, all of which appears to have paid off as they’ve fashioned some of the top wines in this report. Readers looking for the next superstar estate are advised to get on the bandwagon. One of the larger production cuvées is the 2016 Chardonnay Russian River Valley and it comes from the Russian River Valley and spent a year in 20% new French oak. Its light gold color is followed by a beautiful bouquet of honeyed pineapple, white flowers, toasted hazelnuts, and brioche. This beauty is classic Russian River with an exuberant, boisterous, yet pure, and incredibly classy profile

on sale $49.99
was $71.99

The 2018 Chardonnay Seascape Vineyard was 100% barrel fermented in French oak barrels, 26% new, and aged for 14 months. It needs a little coaxing to reveal restrained notes of lemon meringue pie, lime leaves, struck flint and wet pebbles with touches of coriander seed, orange blossoms and yuzu zest. Medium-bodied, the palate is very crisp, intense and pure with loads of citrus and stone-inspired flavors, finishing very long and zesty. This tight-knit beauty is going to be incredible in another year or two and will drink well for at least 10+ years. 270 cases were made.

It has a stunning perfume of quince paste and mushrooms, pastry and flowers, and the palate is satiny, plush and pure, with a seamless tangy streak and long, powerful finish.

The Wine and Cheese Place
195 Lamp and Lantern

Join Tyler Bryant of Bonded Beverage as he offers this rare opportunity to taste these small production Agave spirits including a rare "Unicorn ." These guys break all the rules despite using traditional methods handed down in the family for generations. Given the high cost of these mezcal spirits, there will be a $10 fee to taste through them.
The distillery (called Cielo Abierto) is run by 14th and 15th generation Tequileros and one of the few families that has a direct line to producers of vino del mezcal in the 1600’s. Ask for a mass produced brand at El Gallo Altanero, a hip, secret upstairs bar in the Americana section of Guadualajara, and a bartender will probably hand you a Caballito Cerrero instead. Sandwiched between massive Brown Forman owned, Herradura, and the oldest known Tequila distillery, Cielo Abierto is now an archeological site owned by the Jiménez family and recognized by UNESCO. Caballito Cerrero looks to future innovation by maintaining traditions lost long ago.

This is a rich and balanced Bourbon with aromas of caramelized sugar, orange peel, and toasted vanilla, followed with flavors of toffee, cinnamon spice, and candied pecans. A great finish of baking spice, charred oak, and a touch of dry leather.   It comes from the Tyrone Campus Warehouse F on the 4th floor, considered the sweet spot!

The Tyrone campus refers to one of the core rickhouse and distilling sites used by Wild Turkey in Lawrenceburg, Kentucky. It's where many of the most prized Russell’s Reserve single barrels come from.  These are wooden/clad aging buildings dating back to the early 20th century.  The 4th floor is often regarded as a sweet spot for aging: it balances oak influence and interaction with rickhouse microclimate, resulting in flavorful but not overly “woody” bourbon. Being near the river and higher in elevation, it experiences distinct temperature swing.  Perfect conditions for aging this amazing Bourbon.

2023 Theodore Rex Santa Barbara Chardonnay....on sale....$24.99
Only 5 barrels produced!
The wine is a combination of fruit from the Sierra Madre Vineyard in Santa Maria and the Peake Ranch Vineyard in the Sta. Rita Hills. It all went through malolactic fermentation - with aging in all French barrels.
"Santa Barbara’s cool 2023 growing season produced exceptional Chardonnays. The wines are especially perfumed, with great fruit concentration. Rounded out by a kiss of French oak, the wine gains mid-palate weight before finishing crisp, once again showing it’s cool origins. This is a superb Chardonnay designed to enjoy with many different foods, but it’s really easy to drink by itself." - Adam Lee, winemaker

  • Whole Cluster Pressed
  • Aged in all French oak, 20% new 
  • 100% Malolactic Fermentation
More info from the famous winemaker, Adam Lee
The premiere release of Theodore Rex Chardonnay comes the remarkable 2023 vintage – One of the greatest and coolest in recent California history. Grapes are picked from two outstanding vineyards – one in the cool, high-acid Sta. Rita hills and the other in (still cool) somewhat richer Santa Maria flatlands. The combination of these two areas – carefully blended – produces a chardonnay that balances lushness with backbone – new world with old.


Adam Lee, winemaker
Robert Parker (The Wine Advocate) one of the most influential voices in wine reviews, held a strong admiration for Adam Lee's work at Siduri Wines. Parker’s advocacy helped Siduri's wines gain significant recognition and make him one of the most sought after winemakers on the planet.
