Chateau de Rouanne
 
Chateau de Saint Cosme is an iconic producer in Gigondas. Louis Barruol, the 14th generation of winemakers for this historical estate, is not one to rest on his laurels. He’s had a hand in several projects both Old World and New. One such estate is Chateau de Rouanne.
 
Barruol has sourced fruit from this ancient estate for many years. It is a phenomenal site that also dates to Roman times. The vineyards were replanted in the 1960s and have been maintained with massale selection of Grenache, Syrah, and Mourvèdre. The soils are rich in limestone and sandy marl. In early 2019, he purchased the estate and began overseeing wine production.

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.

Princely Riesling in Prinz: On Sale Now!


Weingut Prinz

 
On sale now, up to 10% off!

 

 
Perched high above Hallgarten in the Rheingau, Weingut Prinz has become one of Germany’s quiet overachievers—an estate where deep family roots meet crisp, modern energy. Led by Fred Prinz and now joined by his son Florian, the winery blends centuries of history with a laser-focused vision for pure, expressive Riesling.

Their secret weapon? Cool, breezy, high-elevation vineyards on quartzite and slate. This is peak Riesling territory, and Prinz knows how to let the terroir shine. The dry wines are electric—zesty citrus, stony minerality, and that unmistakable Rheingau lift. They’re bright, clean, and dangerously easy to drink.

Best of all, Prinz’s Rieslings often match (or beat) the region’s famous names at much friendlier prices.

Beaux Freres ‘The Beaux Freres Vineyard’ Pinot Noir, Ribbon Ridge 2022 750ml $124.50 special, 6 bottles in stock now
Decanter 97 points “A gorgeous Pinot Noir, the plantings from 1988 are being replanted as the phyloxerated vines are being removed. This wine shows elegance and grace while maintaining depth and concentration, but make no mistake, it’s built to age. The Beaux Frères Vineyard is clonally diverse with a massale selection of Pommard and Wadenswil and 115. Red fruited aromas and beautiful interplay between bright berries mixed with fresh mint and savoury herbs. The palate remains fresh and elegant, with red-fruited generosity and savoury depth of spearmint and wild anise.
