Broadside 2020 Paso Robles Cabernet Sauvignon
Broadside is a project of very talented winemaker Chris Brockway. The Cabernet is fermented with wild yeasts and aged in barrels. The resultant wine is remarkably fresh and full bodied with an interesting spicy character and plenty of bright, tangy dark fruit.

Dashe 2021 California Zinfandel Vineyard Select

Eminence Road 2021 Finger Lakes 'Acidalia'
This is a blend of roughly equal parts Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot sourced from three vineyards on the east side of Seneca Lake. The grapes were crushed with 25% stem inclusion and left to ferment with once-daily punchdowns. It spent about 11 months in French oak barrels before being bottled unfined and unfiltered. It’s a light and juicy style with some darker fruit and peppery spice and bright acidity that will leave your mouth watering. It is delicious with a slight chill, perfect for grill season!
Eminence Road 2021 Seneca Lake Cabernet Franc Rose Arlo's Block Vineyard
This is a welcome addition with summer fast approaching - a juicy and quaffable Cab Franc that falls somewhere in-between light red and rose, with watermelon and raspberry fruit and a savory herbal side that lends itself well to food. It's best chilled but not too cold, and at 10.5% abv it makes for a perfect wine to sit outside and sip any time of day.
Scythian Wine Co. 2022 Cucamonga Revolution Red
This comes entirely from the Lopez Vineyard, containing 70% Zinfandel and 30% Palomino. Grapes are fermented in whole clusters and then rested in used French oak before being bottles unfined and unfiltered with minimal SO2. One of the most surprising things about tasting these wines is how they defy any preconceived notions. One might think Zinfandel from a warm climate would be big, ripe and fruity. While there's plenty of bright, juicy fruit here, there's also an interesting darker, spicier side and loads of acidity with just a kiss of tannins, giving it a freshness I would have never thought possible. This is the perfect summer BBQ wine that holds up to just about anything and can be served with a slight chill.
Scythian Wine Co. 2022 Cucamonga Valley Red 'Scythians'
This is a blend from three vineyards: 50% Zinfandel from the Lopez Vineyard, 30% Alicante Bouschet and 10% Mission from the Galleano Home Vineyard, and 10% Grenache from the Francis Road Vineyard. Grapes were hand-harvested and fermented in open-top containers before resting in used French oak barrels. There's some prickly red fruit and a touch of brine, with electric acidity and some white pepper spice. It's medium/light in body but intense in flavor, making it another versatile pairing option that is perfect for the summer but could be even more interesting in a year or two.
Scythian Wine Co. 2022 Galleano Home Vineyard Homage
This is 80% Alicante Bouschet and 20% Palomino from the Galleano Home Vineyard, which consists of sandy soils and is located over an underground water deposit that helps to keep the vines alive during dry years such as 2022. Hand-harvested and fermented whole cluster in open-top fermenters, grapes are rested in 500L old French oak barrels before being bottled unfined and unfiltered. This is the darkest of the group but still refrains from feeling heavy, with characteristic high acidity and integrated tannins. There's nice texture and a mineral streak with enough structure to suggest that this could age well.
Sean Minor 2020 Central Coast Pinot Noir
Sean Minor is a negociant production working with high quality vineyards throughout the central and north coast of California to create fresh, easy drinking, great value wines like this classic California Pinot Noir. Fermented with 100% de-stemmed grapes to emphasize the ripe fruit and aged in oak barrels to give it those quintessential sweet oak spices.
Valravn 2020 Sonoma County Pinot Noir
This is such a great value for Sonoma Pinot Noir! By creating lasting relationships with high quality, organically farmed (some certified, all avoid using chemical sprays and employ cover crops where possible) vineyards, the winemakers of Valravn are able to offer a snapshot of the Sonoma County for a really great price. The fruit is fermented in open-top stainless steel with about 15-20% whole clusters used, and then aged in ~20% new French oak for one year. For each vineyards fruit, the wines are fermented separately and then blind-tasted before creating the perfect blend. On the nose are notes of clove, stewed cherry, treebark, red plums, and a touch of black pepper. The palate is juicy and concentrated, with notes of baking spice, red currant, raspberry, sun-baked soil, and even a bit of blueberry. Very tasty California fruit with just the right amount of new oak! Michelle DeWyngaert
Birichino 2021 Malvasia Petulant Naturel Monterey
Alex Krause and John Locke have a way with Malvasia Bianca. Their still bottling is the reason their Birichino label came to be, as well as one of California's most memorable whites year after year. The Petulant Naturel is lightly sparkling and lovely, Malvasia Bianca with a touch of Muscat Caneli. Savory, saline, floral, and fresh, dense with flavor - citrus fruits and rinds, green almond, salty minerality, and crisp stone fruit - but weightless and frothy on the palate. Recently confirmed to be very delicious with a dozen grilled oysters, topped with grated garlic and butter. Ariana Rolich
Broadside 2020 Central Coast Chardonnay
Chardonnay grape from California. Fermented in tank and transitioned to 30% new French and 8% new American oak post-fermentation.
Cameron 2020 Dundee Hills Clos Electrique Blanc
Clos Electrique is the organic and dry-farmed estate vineyard for Cameron Winery. As one of the warmer sites in the Red Hills of Dundee, the grapes are picked earlier to maintain a balance of ripeness and acidity. For their Chardonnay from this vineyard, the wines are meant to emulate the richness of Meursault. This vintage is described by the winemakers with notes of "notes of honeysuckle, creme Anglaise, lemon curd, marzipan and orange blossom. The palate mirrors the nose along with unctuous mouth feel resulting from 2 years contact with the yeast lies prior to bottling."
Eminence Road Farm Winery 2021 Finger Lakes Basket
A blend of 52% Pinot Gris, 39% Chardonnay and 9% Gewurztraminer coming from various loam, shale and slate soils around Cayuga and Seneca lakes, Basket is a new wine for 2021 that sees around five days skin maceration and is aged in a combination of stainless steel and old French oak. The name is in reference to the tiny Basket Creek that winds past the farm and into the Delaware River a few miles away. There's a nice mix of some orange blossom, lemon and apricot fruit with subtle floral aromatics and a savory streak that keeps it interesting. As with all of the 2021s from Eminence Road it's low in alcohol - 10.5% - but try not to drink it too fast as it really opens up and develops some layered complexity after about an hour if you can keep your hands off for that long. It's a delicious and easygoing orange wine that's sure to be a crowd pleaser this summer, with enough substance to keep the wine crowd happy as well. Pure sunshine in a basket!
Eminence Road Farm Winery 2021 Seneca Lake Lamb's Quarters Riesling
Riesling from the Seneca Lake Lamb’s Quarter vineyard, crushed, de-stemmed and pressed before aging in stainless steel for twelve months. The 2021 shows some rich texture and body that responds well to air. There is subtle white peach and almost tropical fruit and a sleek minerality that takes some time to develop. Best served chilled but not too cold, this is a unique style of Riesling from the Finger Lakes that should evolve for years to come.
Newfound 2020 Napa Valley Semillon - Yount Mill Vineyard
100% Sémillon from the Yount Mill Vineyard in Napa Valley's Oakville AVA. Sémillon accounts for just 8 acres of the total planting and is currently the oldest section of the entire vineyard with vines dating back to 1960s. 20 months élevage, bottled unfined and unfiltered.
Outward 2021 Paso Robles Chenin Blanc - Shell Creek
Chenin Blanc grape. Shell Creek Vineyard is among the first vineyards planted in San Luis Obispo County. The 2021 Shell Creek Chenin Blanc was harvested on August 25, 2021. The grapes were foot-stomped and soaked on the skins for 24 hours before pressing. After being rpessed, the juice was transferred to neutral oak barrels where it underwent a native yeast fermentation. The wine was aged for 10 months before bottling without fining or filtration in June 2022.
Scrumpy Ewe Farmhouse Dry Traditional Cider
Scrumpy (a term for farmhouse cider in Europe) Ewe (referring to the sheep that graze their orchards) is a traditional cidery making cider the old-fashioned way up in the foothills of the Catskill Mountains. The Farmhouse Dry cider is a blend of Old Winesap, Northern Spy, Spigold, Newtown Pippin, Gold Rush, Ida Red and Spartan apples fermented with native yeasts and aged for 10 months in a mixture of American and French oak.

The 'Golden Crab' is a blend of 50% Wickson Crab, 50% Golden Russet to create this bright, bold, dry cider from the Catskills.
Scythian Wine Co. 2022 Lopez Vineyard Palomino
This is mostly Palomino with a small amount of unknown red and white varieties mixed in, all from the sandy granite soils of the Lopez Vineyard in San Bernardino. The grapes were hand-harvested and macerated with the skins for a week, then fermented in a Sherry bota from Ramiro Ibáñez of COTA 45 along with a used French oak barrel before resting for six months to complete malolactic conversion. If you're familiar with the COTA 45 unfortified Palomino wines from Jerez this shares some similarities, with a saline mineral core and dreamy texture that suggests endless pairing possibilities. It's a subtle coppery peach in the glass and has great acid structure, with enough body to hold up to meats while still feeling sprightly and alive. This was a standout and should not be missed!
Valravn 2021 Sonoma County Chardonnay
Chardonnay grape. Sustainable farming. Vinification & Aging: The wine was fermented in a combination of stainless steel tank, neutral oak puncheon, and barrel. Malolactic fermentation was followed by aging in French oak barrels (mostly Damy with some Cavin and Tremeaux), 30% of which were new, with occasional lees stirring. The wine aged for 10 months in barrel before the final blend was assembled.
