TOP-10 LIST!

LUSH & BEAUTIFUL PINOT NOIR - THE ONLY DOMESTIC PINOT IN THE '24 TOP10!

Translating to 'The Green Valley,' La Combe Verte pays homage to the lush landscapes of the Willamette Valley. This Pinot Noir embodies strength and grace thanks to fruit sourcing from the crème de la crème of vineyards in the region. Founded in 2008 by Erica Landon and Ken Pahlow - Walter Scott specializes in expressive, limited Pinot Noirs.


Varietal: 100% Pinot Noir that is sourced from four vineyards: Distraction, Sojeau, Temperance Hill, and Witness Tree in the Eola-Amity Hills. Ambient yeast fermented and aged 10 months in French oak barrels, 25% of which were new.


Tasting notes: A gorgeous glistening medium ruby core with a light raspberry rim in the glass, the 2022 La Combe Verte Pinot Noir captivates with aromas of black raspberries, licorice root, dried lavender, black tea, and pink peppercorn. The palate offers bright, spicy red fruit, tea-textured tannins, vibrant acidity and a long, pure finish that delights!


Experience the essence of Oregon's terroir with 'La Combe Verte' from Walter Scott! It boasts a symphony of bursting red fruit flavors and the earthy undertones of a forest floor, all balanced with vivacious acidity and smooth tannins, making it an exquisite complement to your table.

It's #10 on our list!

ITALY'S ANSWER TO CHAMPAGNE - AN ELEGANT, FRESH AND LIVELY SPARKLING!

This robust Franciacorta from Antica Fratta, famed producer from Lombardy dating back to the 1600s, has a subdued delicate fragrance, an expressive palate and a lively perlage (Italian for bubbles) that is accompanied by vibrant acidity.


Varietal: 90% Chardonnay & 10% Pinot Noir from calcareous/clay soils found to the south of Lake Iseo in the heart of Franciacorta, Lombardy. Traditional Champagne method with second fermentation happening in the bottle. Aged 24 months in bottle on lees. Dosage 5 g/l.


Taste: A balanced, biscuity gem of a Franciacorta with aromas of dried apples, lemons, pastries and toasted almonds. Medium-bodied with vibrant acidity and sleek bubbles. Nuances of burnt sugar and brown spice linger, even as the Cuvée Real maintains a marvelous freshness, and finish.


Savor Italian bubbles from the masterful vignaiolos of Antica Fratta that blossom in the glass, delivering pleasure with every sip. Perfectly balanced, and exceptional at this price point... The most likely candidate to be enjoyed prior to Thanksgiving - buy a few!

SIMULTANEOUSLY FRESH & DEEP - ALSACE'S BEST NEW ORANGE WINE!

After training in Burgundy, Arthur Ostertag returned home to Alsace to pioneer new vinification techniques and a hyper focus on terroir. This playful blend enjoys some skin-contact and enjoys an amber hue in the glass with great aromatics, and delicious stone fruit on the palate.


Varietal: 90% Gewürztraminer & 10% Sylvaner from Alsatian Grand Cru vineyards in the foothills of the Vosges mountains. Biodynamically farmed since 1997.


Taste: Balanced profile that shines thanks to the addition of Sylvaner. Otherworldly aromas and flavors of rose petal, apricot, and peach are all at the forefront, and are confirmed on the palate thanks to bright citrus. The skin-contact white for those that enjoy Burgundy.


Step out of your comfort zone with this Alsatian orange wine that blends just enough bounce with a fruit core to go well with first round of appetizers at your gatherings. Sleeper pick of the year for those that are looking to enjoy a non-traditional French white (well, orange!)

It's #8 on our list!
