8/31/26 -  Aurélien Laherte makes some of the most compelling single parcel wines in Champagne, particularly within the Coteaux Sud D'Epernay: the sub region set between the Cotes des Blancs and the Vallee de la Marne. This opportune combination provides pockets of soils that have the best of each region. While there are so many delicious wines to celebrate from this impeccable estate, today...

8/30/26 -  Today we are highlighting four wine that represent the best of Gattinara. Here at CSW we adore wines from this sub-Alpine zone for their approachability upon release and serious aging potential. Alto Piemonte was once more prestigious than Barolo, but two world wars, phylloxera, and the rapidly expanding textile industry caused farmers to abandon vines out of necessity. The three producers here...

8/24/26 -  Although Basilicata is one of Italy's least populated regions, small growers are producing some of the most distinct and terroir driven wines. The extinct Vulture volcano (pronounced "vooltooray") has sprinkled ash in the miles around its radius, bringing forth an interesting viticultural history. Aglianico di Vulture is similar to Taurasi in that the main grape is Aglianico, but distinct in that the...

8/21/26 -  New Arrivals from Barbichette, Eminence Road, Nathan K / chëpìka, Ria's Wines, Usonia, Wild Arc and More!  As wine lovers who fancy ourselves students or even professionals with a thirst for knowledge (among other things), it can sometimes feel as though we fall into a bit of an echo chamber of, quote, unquote, “great wines” from wherever our particular focus lies at...

8/20/26 -  The magic of Nebbiolo is in its ability to shapeshift depending on soil type, weather patterns, and the hands of the winemaker. Giovanna Rizzolio's examples in Barbaresco are elegant, high toned, ethereal, fragrant, refined and are some of our absolute favorites! Their beautiful house has been in the family since 1948, but Giovanna bought it over and converted it into the winery...

8/17/26 -  I have been a fan of the wines of Arnaud Sirugue and Sophie Noellat for a handful of years now. I was first introduced to them by their importer, Bertrand, when they just made a Passetoutgrain Rosé (from Vosne-Romanée) and Vosne-Romanée Les Barreaux. Those two wines were fantastic, I have poured that rosé by the glass in the past, and even sent...

8/16/26 -  With so much incredible wine flowing out of Etna, its important we don't forget to continue to champion the wines to the south in Vittoria. Most of the respect for this winegrowing area on the Mediterranean sea is due to the trio at COS, an acronym for friends Giambattista Cilia, Giusto Occhipinti, and Cirino Strano. Their commitment to biodynamic farming and native...

8/14/26 -  Although we are well into August, it feels like the Champagne arrivals just keep coming. Today we highlight three producers that I am really excited about alongside the biggest selection of Coteaux Champenois I have ever offered at once! This sector of the Champagne world is growing at an incredible pace and the wines have amazing depth and range in style. As...

8/12/26 -  This Spring we did an offer called 'Drink More Fiano' where the singular, unique, and age-defying Fiano di Avellino from Joaquin were introduced. After the success of that offer, it became clear that more of the lineup should be highlighted, including a breezy white blend from the island of Capri, a 2015 Taurasi, a baby Taurasi called I Viaggiatori, and the stunning...
