In Portugal's Alentejo, Natus continues to push the traditional ways. Even among a slate of favorite names – we’re still struck by just how delicious they are.

Lena Singer-Fischer is the rare German producer who specializes in sparkling wine - making bottles that feel more shoulder-to-shoulder with our favorite grower Champagne than German Sekte.

When you factor in the farming, the multiple cellars he needs to support his layered, multi-vintage approach (for both still and sparkling), it becomes clear that Hoch is as individual as a winemaker can be.

From Vincent Ruiz (newly at the helm of Dominique Belluard's estate), we've got a grippy, tasty *fun* bottle...

The return of Drake Whitcraft’s wines to Fulton St is a charming highlight among a crop of interesting arrivals from Santa Barbara and the greater Central Coast.

Australia's Place of Changing Winds – our newest (and long anticipated) name on the shelf – has taken the technique of high density planting to an absolute extreme. For some of the finest Pinot Noirs coming out of, honestly, anywhere...

From Muscadet head-turner Jérôme Bretaudeau, a new cuvée that’s energetic, delicious, and – a touch less expensive than the rest of the lineup.

Daniel Vollenweider's successor Mortiz Hoffmann seems to not only have honored his work by finishing the '22 vintage (in incredible style and intention, more on that below); but, with the newly arrived 2023s, he’s solidified the future of this seminal Mosel estate.

We’ve been mentioning Maffrei where we can: the young La Morra-based duo with a firm role in Langhe’s newest chapter. The arrival of their ‘23s may only be their third vintage, but they’re already some of the most sought after bottles from the area (and, very limited in release).

From Galicia’s iconic Nanclares y Prieto, it’s a (very limited!) wine of many firsts.

It's a rare new entry in Vosne - from the vineyard manager for the Hospices de Beaune’s Grand Cru holdings in the Cote de Nuits. We're in!

On a crowded volcano, Ayunta's Filippo Mangione stands apart in Etna for his wildly old vines, impressive contrada holdings and, most uniquely: multiple expressions of Nerello Mascalese.

In Rheinhessen, Carsten Saalwächter is becoming a must-watch grower in Germany's newest guard.

Tanca Nica is, in a word: other-worldly. Those who’ve tasted know it’s more than just (rare!) dry wine from Pantelleria – it’s a thought-provoking, highly specific expression of volcanic terroir.

From a unique spot on the northern end of Tenerife, Ambora is making especially elegant expressions of Canary Island wine that manage to stand out in the region’s already incredibly specific terroir.

Benjamin Benoit may be young but he works very, very hard – combined with incredibly natural talent, the result is a lineup well-worthy of its roots in Burgundy and Pupillin’s small circles.

From their history and epic labels, to the final age-worthy wines, They are simply one of my favorites names from anywhere.

From the founder of La Dive - a versatile, refreshing bottle with cool roots.

A $30 (Hungarian!) Pinot Noir to remember . . .

From Montalcino, the first bottling of J.G. Benda’s pure-fruited Sangiovese is the kind of instant classic we’re thrilled to have.

Maffrei’s Bianco is the most original white wine we’ve seen out of the Langhe in several years.

A new producer to hit our shelves is the source for three $20 bottles that speak waaay beyond their price point.

La Soufrandière – and their négoce arm, Bret Brothers – has long been a reference for quality farming within the Mâconnais.

From one of Spain's most iconic producers, the newest thing is an ancient varietal – farmed and made with as much care and detail as ever.

The savviest wine buyers know: Cantalapiedra Viticultores sits firmly among Spain’s most authentic (and most talented) natural producers – with stirring, high-touch presentations of Rueda Verdejo

'22 Chassorney is a notable vintage, in that it’s the first release without Frédéric Cossard – who sold his estate to friend and fellow vigneron Aurélien Verdet.

Theme of the week? American talents doing French things 🥇

One of our favorite finds this year: this brand new duo is making magic with wines that reflect their love for (and pedigree with) Burgundy while honoring Wachau's most hallowed ground.

For the last three vintages, Dostert’s have been some of the most limestone-driven wines to come our way. But, unlike the cellar-worthy Chablis we often compare it to, or the renowned Rieslings from the Mosel’s more prime real estate, these are from a unique grape (Elbling) and place (the Obermosel).

As a sincere ode to her life and impact on his industry, Pierre Morey dedicated a wine to Becky Wasserman, from her favorite grape: Cuvée Becky Aligoté.

As we've come to learn about Julien, it’s not just about making some of the most exciting wines coming out of the Mosel; it’s a journey of self-discovery...

Honoring the work with incredible pedigree while at the same time making notable changes, newly-landed Domaine du Gringet is one we can go all in on. Story below.

Stefano Zoli's much anticipated Riserva is a bottle that pushes even our perception of Verdicchio. Hint: if classic Chablis and GG Riesling are your vibe, you will want to check it out...

These are inarguably some of the most soulful, pure-fruited wines in all of Burgundy – a must-try for any devotee of the region’s trailblazers.

Sometimes, it only takes one person to change the industry’s perception of a region.

Interesting, incredibly well made, and (importantly) – crushable.

Provence's newest natural wines - and easily one of the best new names we’ve introduced to the store this year.
