Darioush 2021 Signature Viognier, Napa Valley
7327991942
$ 59.99
One of California's greatest white wines is the Darioush Viognier - try it while this small-production gem is still available!
90 Points Wine Spectator: "This strikes the right balance between bold and graceful, with ripe apricot and mango flavors providing a fleshy texture, showing details of peach blossom and yellow apple, with refreshing acidity. Drink now."
The Darioush Estate Grown Signature Viognier derives its unique style from a four-acre vineyard site in the Oak Knoll appellation. The cool micro-climate of the vineyard allows this temperamental varietal to slowly develop robust and concentrated floral and fruit characteristics. The fruit, and resulting wine, is minimally handled to express its pure and fragrant nature. Honeysuckle, jasmine and citrus fruit aromas leap from the glass, introducing a vibrant and succulent mouthfeel of juicy peach and cantaloupe balanced by the bright acidity of Fuji apple and lemon zest. The 2014 Viognier finishes with lingering notes of dried apricot, nutmeg and vanilla bean.

4 Kilos "Motor Blanc" White, Mallorca Spain
$ 24.99
4 Kilos was started in 2006 by two friends on Mallorca, Francesc Grimalt and Sergio Caballero, who had been working in other wineries and wanted to do their own thing. We're excited to have the small-production wines in the U.S. for the first time!
Francesc is a Mallorcan winemaker known for working with native grape varieties. His partner Sergio Caballero is a musician and director of the Sonar music festival. Together they started 4 Kilos in 2006, garagiste-style, vinifying their first vintage in milk refrigeration units on a sheep farm (Mallorca has lots of these). By the next year they were able to ‘upgrade’ another old sheep farm into a winery to make their line-up of 3 wines, all from indigenous varieties grown organically by small farmers. This is a very small operation trying to work with traditional lesser known local grapes, fermenting naturally, and avoiding any additives including sulfur.
4kilos 2019 “Motor Blanc” is 100% Callet, a grape native to the island; aged three months in clay vats and two months in stainless steel, this is a natural wine that offers fresh, lightly funky aromas and tart strawberry fruit that blended with hints of soil and fresh herbs
Arietta 2019 "On The White Keys" White Wine Napa Valley

95 pts
A fantastic white blend from winemaker Andy Erickson and Arietta. Don't miss!
95 Points Wine Enthusiast "Editor's Choice": "This is a beautiful blend of Sauvignon Blanc, Sauvignon Muque and Semmilon mad by winemker Andy Erickson. Inspired by Bordeaux, it shows high-toned aromas of Meyer Lemon and lemongrass with a flinty unertone and juicy acidity. Layered, complex and textured, it is floral, earthy and balanced, a gorgeous expression of the grapes."
Arietta On The White Keys is of the most intensely aromatic Sauvignons we have tasted in a long time. Vinous mentions it’s “Creamy in the glass, yet also has quite a bit of supporting structure and overall freshness… Richness and vibrancy is simple compelling” This is a staff favorite and will be for years. Don’t let this one slip through your spring plans.
