New Arrivals from France!

This week we are keeping it simple with a white blend and a red, both new to the shop from France.

Are you ready to add a few new varieties to your weekly mix? These are the ones! Cheers!

White Blend

2019 Thierry Forestier Mont de Marie "Anatheme", $23
Grapes: Blend of Viognier and Ugni Blanc

Tasting Notes: All natural, vegan, and sustainably farmed white blend with a unique expression: the natural fermentation imparts wild and savory streaks through the center palate, but the spirit of the wine is fresh and citrusy. Superb!

Red

2019 Clos D’Audhuy ‘Les Polissons’ Cahors, $17
Grapes: 100% Malbec

Tasting Notes: Great French red for under $20! This wine is soft and fruity, with only the lightest tannic touch. It is juicy, fresh with red fruits and good acidity.
