Cayuse 2018 Bionic Frog

Restocked


Cayuse is one of the most in-demand wineries in North America, and likely needs little in the way of introductions for many of our subscribers. Our allocations always go fast, so we’re always on the hunt for more of these sought-after wines. Perhaps Cayuse’s most coveted wine of all is Bionic Frog. A serious wine with a playful name, it is one of America’s most collectable bottles.

Cayuse is one of the most in-demand wineries in North America, producing wines from both Rhône and Bordeaux varieties that are among the finest in the world and selling them almost exclusively through their mailing list.

We’re always on the hunt for more of these hyper-rare bottlings—and this set of wines is a prime example of why they’re so exciting.

Alzinger: Hidden Star of the Wachau


The beauty of Austria is something to experience, but there is one area that truly stands out, both for its charm and the amazing wine: the Wachau.
