311 Contratto “Millesimato” Pas Dosé () 2012 79

Don’t overlook the 2013 Brut Rosé from Rotari (Bin 312) just because you might not be celebrating a special occasion. Sparkling wines are extremely food-friendly and food-flexible.

401 Jean Rijckaert “Arbois” (france) 2013 59

404 Shafer “Red Shoulder Ranch” (carneros) 2012 109

French Chardonnays, like the 2013 “Arbois” from Rijckaert (Bin 401), are typically more refined and food-friendly than their New World cousins. As opposed to the buttery creaminess and tropical fruit of a California Chardonnay, you can expect more tree fruit, think apples and pears, coupled with minerality and a refreshing acidity.

The 2014 Cannonau di Sardegna from Neale (Bin 516) is full of secondary herbaceous aromas like oregano and basil with a soft peppery finish. This Cannonau, which is the same as from France, is truly Sardinia in a glass and is drinking beautifully right now.

542 Tempranillo, Viña Sastre “Crianza” () 2012 72

2013 was a difficult vintage in Rioja. Wines can be judged by the raw materials- , vines, , weather, and wines can be judged by the vintner and their talents. Taste the “Reserva” 2013 from Cune (Bin 533) to see what difference a brilliant winemaker can make to a less desirable vintage.

A rare blend of Niellucciu, Syrah & Grenache, the 2015 Corse Rouge from Domaine Petroni cracked Wine Spectator’s Top 100 Wines in 2017. Niellucciu, a distinct island variant of the native Italian , Sangiovese, may be a bit of a challenge to wrap your tongue around, but the wines blended from this lusty, robust variety require little effort to enjoy!
