Thumb through some of the city’s biggest and best lists (EMP, or the freshly revamped Babbo, for example) and you’ll see a new addition popping up in the Tuscan section: Montalcino’s il Cocco.

The wines were so incredible, so special – Dirk Niepoort declared them “the greatest white wines in the history of Portugal” and bought much of the production himself. These are those wines.

We’re bringing wine auctions to a place where more people can participate. Everyone is invited to explore the world’s best wines.

When Hugo and Talloulah Mathurin purchased the property at their (quickly famous) Domaine de Cassiopée, they found themselves in one of the rare parts of Burgundy with still-untapped potential: Maranges.

Whole cluster, centenarian Garnacha that might evoke comparisons to Comando G and Rayas – but sits firmly in a category of its own.

These are absolutely vivid, pure expressions of Dogliani that upend expectations for the appellation and its grape – all from a winemaker just 9 years in and barely 30 years old.

A new entry in the Langhe, from the backyard vineyard of a renowned photographer whose work has naturally embedded him in Piedmont's community of talented winemakers.

With vines in some of our favorite Champagne terroirs, these brothers work in a patient, unadulterated fashion and deliver a high-wire style—balancing chalky fruit with an embrace of oxygen through long aging.

We just love this drop from Drake Whitcraft, whose 2+ decades of winemaking is a revival of an old-school approach to Santa Barbara fruit. '23s are here, plus his Stolpman Chenin - a new entry for the east coast.

Just two months in and this year has already seen a slate of landings that surprise and delight: including new cuvées from old favorites and a pack of new-to-the-US producers who bring extra dimension to places we love.

While much of Oregon wine is dominated by Chardonnay and Pinot Noir rooted in the Willamette Valley's volcanic 'jory' soil, Jeff's work sits firmly outside of the monolith: a mission based on own-rooted, dry farmed old vines, from old clones and seldom seen varieties.

How did Gredos’ most famous name end up with a passion project in Galicia? In short: by salvaging years of work with friends.

100% certified organic Gamay, from the granite and clay soils of Beaujeu (yes, the capital of Beaujolais!). This is Yann Bertrand's 2025 Beaujolais Primeur (aka Nouveau).

The personal project of Frank Cornelissen’s cellar master (and Etna native) Giuseppe Lazzaro – this is a set of unique and unabashedly delicious wines, stateside for the first time.

These are his most personal wines, a powerful style that deftly flexes between luxurious and soil-driven. Much of the fruit comes from the family holdings, but he sources additional sites from friends (like trading his Meursault for Antoine Lienhardt's Les Plantes aux Bois...)

The story is a homecoming for a NY wine professional who caught a (2020) plane back to his home country of Croatia and settled into the coastal Mediterranean town of Primošten. Before long, he began a new chapter: a natural winery focused on a single grape, found throughout the white-limestone coast of his homeland.

Practically extending from Mouton Rothschild (just 100 yards), he's producing richly textured, natural Bordeaux: thought-provoking wines that feel true to the region, while putting terroir and philosophy over rigid rules from the past.

There is no more confident hand in Salnés. And a full release is back in the store with their top Albariños, a couple experimental cuvées we haven’t seen in several years, and a brand-new Rosado we’ve been patiently awaiting for two years...

Aside from being interesting and delicious, this bottle represents an ethos we can't get enough of: a new generation of winemakers, boldly redefining German wine.

La Ca' Növa has quietly grounded our Piedmont section almost since day one – and incredibly, it's remained a bit of a best-kept secret. But the wines deserve a proper highlight: these are two of Barbaresco's top terroirs, with ultra-traditional, patient winemaking.

Last week we had a rare opportunity to sit down with the lineup from Esmeralda García: moving wines that remind us of the sheer potential to be found in Rueda's oldest vines (here, 200+ years old).

We're introducing the domaine with a compelling pair of wines, both from the same vineyard, same vintage, same vinification in concrete – with one cuvée transformed by an extra year of barrel age. A delicious experiment in the somehow-still-expanding category of Cru Beaujolais...

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.
