Marietta Armé Cabernet Sauvignon 2022
North Coast
July 22, 2026 - Armé Cabernet Sauvignon is a tribute to the great-great uncle of owner/winemaker Scot Bilbro. Sourced from the rocky hillside terraces of the Angeli Estate in Alexander Valley and the cool, protected McDowell Valley estate, it reflects the balance of warm days and cold nights that define these sites. Fresh, dark fruit and earthy savor give the wine a taut, structured core, while its style bridges modern California richness with Old World restraint. The dry fly on the label nods to the Bilbro family’s fishing roots and Armé’s legacy.
Champagne Bollinger Rosé NV
Champagne
July 22, 2026 - Bollinger Rosé is a Champagne that quietly breaks the mold. First released in 2008 and made in limited quantities, it begins as Special Cuvée before a small addition of still Pinot Noir brings vibrant red fruit, a touch of tannin and striking depth. Pinot Noir is the heart of Bollinger, making up at least 60% of all wines and shaping the Rosé’s bold yet elegant character. With one-third fermented in oak, aged for up to eight years and blended with reserve wines from magnums, this Rosé offers freshness, complexity and a silk-like texture.
Wine Spectator - August 11, 2025 "An enticing rosé Champagne, with a core of ripe and juicy raspberry, white peach and cherry, fragrant anise, cardamom and cumin, plus accents of slivered almond, candied ginger, blood orange…
Wine Advocate - August 31, 2022 "The latest release of Bollinger's NV Brut Rosé is showing especially well, offering up complex aromas of sweet stone fruit, honeycomb, freshly baked bread and orange oil, followed by a…

Château Recougne Rouge 2022
Bordeaux Superieur
July 22, 2026 - Legend has it that Château Recougne earned its name in “recognition” by Henri IV in the early 1600s. Wine has been made here for 400 years, yet the estate feels more relevant than ever. As Bordeaux shifts toward freshness and balance, Recougne has quietly stayed the course, producing pure, energetic wines with red and black fruit and earthy complexity. Bottles from the 1950s and ’60s still drink beautifully. Today, fourth-generation winemaker Marc Milhade carries the torch, focusing on vineyard work and maintaining a low-intervention approach in the cellar.
James Suckling - January 23, 2025 "Ripe dark berries, ground cloves and licorice on the nose, with a subtle stony character. Tight and chewy, with a medium body, firm tannins and a bitter, spiced, walnuty finish."
Ponzi Vineyards Pinot Gris 2025
Willamette Valley
July 22, 2026 - Ponzi, a pioneer in Oregon Pinot Gris, helped establish it as the state’s first quality white grape variety. Their Pinot Gris is aromatic, expressive, and perfect for easy drinking, offering fantastic value with serious pedigree. Sourced from LIVE Certified Sustainable vineyards like Avellana, Aurora, and Madrona, it features aromas of marmalade, yellow plum, and honeycomb, balanced by lemongrass and lavender. The textured mouthfeel shows dried apricot, mango, and vanilla, finishing with bright acidity and salted caramel.
Wine Spectator - "Notes of pear, melon and white peach on the nose, with a hint of pithiness and salinity. Pear and yellow apple on a round and supple palate that tapers beautifully,…
James Suckling - June 01, 2026 "A crisp and textural wine with aromas of green pears and blossoms, bright acidity, juicy citrus flavors and an incredibly long finish for a light-bodied wine. Nice tension and freshness."
Ponzi Vineyards Laurelwood Pinot Noir Reserve 2019
Willamette Valley
July 15, 2026 - Ponzi’s Pinot Noir Reserve is made exclusively from estate fruit, including some of Oregon’s oldest vines. For over 50 years, the Ponzi family has farmed 140 acres of certified sustainable vineyards on Laurelwood soils. Over time, the vines have evolved, with red fruit in their youth giving way to dark berry and brambly spice. The Reserve’s layered complexity make it one of the finest examples of site-expressive Pinot Noir in North America. As Wine Spectator once wrote, “All Oregon Pinot Noirs are measured against the Ponzi yardstick.”
