If names like Tscheppe, Tauss and Nestarec sit in your rotation, Bencze is an essential addition. Overlooking Hungary's romantic Lake Balaton, this biodynamic producer is our standard bearer for Hungarian wine.

In an area where things change slowly, it’s refreshing to see the work of Rie and Hiroto Sasaki in Piedmont. Not only did they settle there from another country, but their work feels without reference: the focus isn’t on Nebbiolo, and the philosophy is unapologetically natural.

The 2024 wines from Alsace's Jintaro Yura call us back to his first stateside release from '21: brisk, incisive, wildly refreshing – and still a stylistic outlier in the region.

With the arrival of fresh white and red from Michael Candelario, we're revisiting his work: older-than-centenarian vines grown above the cloud line in one of Europe's highest vineyards, on the most far-flung western edge of the Canary archipelago.

Luca Roagna's Langhe Rosso is full stop one of the best values in wine: 100% Nebbiolo from two vineyards that source the family's quintessential Barbaresco and Barolo cru wines, made and aged the same way.

The arrival of Antoine's 2024 vintage (and more 2023s) brings new Chardonnay, his 3 year Aligoté, the return of Gevrey, and *everything* else!

Dozens of cuvées, 3 types of slate, one vineyard (and the genius who farms it). Despite the wines being made the same way, the differences are staggering: some tensile (piercing, even), while others are as broad-shouldered and muscular as the Mosel gets.

Kobayashi is one of the most individual, serious domestic projects to land on our shelves. And frankly, our first new Washington winery in years. 

We've teamed with one of the brightest minds in wine (Brenna Quigley!!) on a new, bi-annual club.

It's stony, pomaceous – expressive of both its limestone terroir and orchard-fruited varietals. And, sharing the same fossilized seashell terroir as many of our favorite grower Champagnes, there's a quality level here that is getting just so hard to find for $30-and-under.

What makes this moment compelling is not just one standout producer, but the convergence of new ambition, generational transitions and experimentation, and outside investment from referential estates farther North.

These are magnetic wines that speak to the couple’s connections with the keepers of California’s old vines – with Bedrock, Chalone, Del Barba, and Spenker Ranch vineyards in today’s offer.

We're so pleased to see another (larger) release from Raphaëlle Guyot – who since our intro last year has quietly become one of the finest domaine + micro-négoce projects in Burgundy.

Colleen's time in Bordeaux was not only a blast, but also a paradigm-shifting reminder that the places in your textbooks are real; their people are real. It’s the people who change what a place means to you. And we always say, people are the best part of wine.

The wines have been in the US for only a week - and already, showstopping. The philosophy is unapologetic. It’s what drew us to the wines immediately. Unafraid of varietal choice, wood, or dosage, there’s a quiet confidence here that points to the young winemaker moving this family estate to the forefront.

We were recently lucky to be visited by a 15th generation (!) winemaker, whose work deftly crosses the boundary between super classic and new wave. And the result not only appeals to both lovers of old school Bordeaux and cult natural wine, but it's some of our favorite wine - from anywhere - on the shelf.

This year we celebrate a decade of business on Fulton Street. Below is a merch collection to celebrate. We leaned into parts of the shop that both define us and have my heart, and we’re excited to share them with you! They look great and—at least to me—are uniquely Leon & Son. - Chris

The year's final drop of Tegan Passalacqua's Sandlands is here, with wines from his home vineyard and his trademark Chenin Blanc. Plus! Bits of library wines, for a rare opportunity to see these (very old) vines with age.

It's Thomas de Marne's second release since he took over his mother Val Frison's organic Aube estate; the wines are distinct, driven and deeply quenching, presenting that late season picking as a fine-tuned balance "made in the vineyard" but expressed through thoughtful cellar work.

Germany's '24s might be wildly slim in quantity, but the end products are made from the featherweight materials Riesling lovers dream of. We have a rundown of landings below from Lauer, Falkenstein, Ulli Stein, Kilburg, Trossen and Clemens Busch.

Few things wrap around Turkey and sides like the chalky, powerful wines of Meursault. Just in time for your holiday weekend we have some of the very best names in our warehouse, and they include the likes of Roulot, Lafon, Coche, Rougeot and Bouzereau.

Jeremy Arnaud's style of Chablis allows for the wines to fully breathe in the cellar and be themselves without trying to fit a steely mold that – frankly – the appellation doesn’t neatly fit into anymore.

A recap of Chris' visit to Luis Pato, whose contribution to Portuguese wine can’t be overstated. He made the argument that Baga belonged on the world stage and, frankly, single-handedly put it there.

If Laval and Gass’s generation made the case that great Champagnes are made by great farmers, Suenen hammers it home with organically farmed, incisive wines—some of the finest in the Côte des Blancs.

Fabrice Gass’s winery is as much a time capsule as it is a production facility: 100-year-old barrels stacked two stories high, and an underground cellar that snakes beneath his house. An incredibly memorable visit, and wines.

Chris recently shared his visit to Bardstown and the process of picking our very own (very special) barrel of 10 year old Willett. It's a rare honor that certainly isn't lost on us – and with the arrival of our barrel at the end of this week, we're sharing more from 3rd generation master distiller Drew Kulsveen's visit to us.

On a night that centered around Chardonnay, it was a new producer's bottle of Aligoté that gave everyone pause: a beautiful, naturally made wine that reminded us the world's best wines don't always come from its most famous grapes.

Alfredo Egia showed us how ripe fruit and long élevage teases out texture and breadth in a category known for spritzy white wines. And now, our Basque revival continues with the arrival of Aitor Irazu’s Makatzak, a brand new project that reveals yet another dimension to the place.

To see a ripping $20 Pinot Noir from a talent we love, is pure joy (probably don't need to tell you, that's bananas pricing these days...)

It's a stunning project, with perhaps the highest density Pinot Noir plantings we've ever seen and truly, some of the best Pinot Noir we've enjoyed from anywhere. We retell the story because frankly – it's an important one in the world of wine.

Connecting with Vino di Anna's Eric Narioo: from his exclusive use of chestnut barrels for white wines, to three-year-old plantings guided by Jean-François Ganevat and Fabien Duperray...

Leithaberg is one of those magical places in wine: a grand cru ridge in Burgenland, decorated by forests, flecked with shell limestone, and home to some of Austria's most unique producers. This year also marks the entry of a talented (and new-to-NY) producer whose rare set of white wines captures this salty, forested terroir with a completely new lens: Leo Sommer.

On just his third release, the lineup somehow continues to surprise (and delight!) – with an expansion that stretches from France’s kind-of-outback in Auvergne up to Savigny…

We've loved seeing Outward Wines grow across several vintages, and the arrival of their '24s marks several delicious new entries (yes, Sangiovese!). As they continue to map out some of the Central Coast's most interesting sites, we're unpacking the work.

It's a special drop, both in rarity and value. We have talents we only see once a year – Lassaigne, Agrapart, Courtin, Savart, Bourgeois-Diaz! – along with a handful of inspired bottles priced for dinner party season.

A 0/0, Piedmontese, and very thought-provoking entry to our shelves.

One of the most striking things about Württemberg is its culture – one with tradition and genuine craftsmanship at its center, and layered with a new wave of cultural exchange beyond its borders. We're thrilled to see this highlighted by a business that lives outside of wine: Merz b. Schwanen.

Easily one of the most special sites for Cinsault, from anywhere.

It’s striking how quickly certain places in the wine world come into focus. Baden Pinot Noir has long had its devotees, but Wasenhaus reimagined the region's pedigree and introduced it to a new generation of wine lovers.
