As one of the Vinopolis staff’s favorite producers, the Bereche Champagnes enchant us with near-magical tension and overwhelming complexity. They’ve mastered the art of dosage at this estate and the wines show incredible balance. This used to just be a label that professionals in the wine business knew about and adored, but now the cats out of the bag and these bottlings are earning followers far and wide.

This is the lowest listed price in the USA today!

Everyday Molitor Values On Sale Now! 11-30-25

 



All of Molitor’s estate level wines on sale now!
 

We’re taking things back to where the Molitor obsession often begins: the wines without asterisks—Molitor’s entry-level bottlings that deliver some of the most outrageous value in the entire Mosel. These are the wines that remind you why Markus Molitor is considered one of Germany’s greats. Same legendary vineyards, same meticulous handwork, same precision in the cellar—just in a more approachable, everyday-friendly package.

Don’t let the lack of stars fool you. Molitor’s “no-asterisk” Rieslings are crafted with the exacting detail he brings to his top wines, but they show a brighter, more immediate side of the Mosel.

Produttori del Barbaresco
 
Produttori del Barbaresco is revered for producing classically-styled Barbaresco and Riservas of uncompromising quality and transparency. You’d be hard-pressed to find such consistent quality and complexity out of such an extensive range of single-vineyard Nebbiolos anywhere else.
 
Oregon was the first state to import the wines, and they’ve been beloved by many for decades. We’ve admired the producer and its director, Aldo Vacca (cousin of the late Renato Vacca of Cantina del Pino), since the shop first opened. We’ve pleased to continue to offer some of Barbaresco’s finest line up. These still offer incredible value for the money, especially on our three-day sale.
