If you’re looking for something new and delicious to experience, we have the wine for you - 2020 Cheval des Andes! Cheval des Andes is a joint venture between Chateau Cheval Blanc (Bordeaux) and one of Argentina’s top wineries, Terrazas de los Andes. Described as a ‘New World Grand Cru’, Cheval des Andes is a high-end wine project with Gerald Gabillet as the winemaker. He works closely with the Chateau Cheval Blanc team throughout the entire winemaking process to create this iconic South American First Growth. Previously, he was at Chateau Angelus in Bordeaux.

The 2020 vintage of Cheval des Andes is a 98 point Bordeaux blend of 49% Cabernet Sauvignon, 29% Malbec and 2% Petit Verdot, “which makes a comeback as it was not used since 2016”. (RPWA)

Cheval des Andes hails from Argentina and is a must try for any fan of Cheval Blanc or Right Bank Bordeaux. This

2019 Brunello di Montalcino is “…the vintage we’ve all been waiting for,” so “Buckle your seatbelts,” and strap on your helmets because the newest vintage from Montalcino is “…an embarrassment of riches for collectors and fans of the appellation” (Eric Guido, Vinous Media). The hotly anticipated Brunellos have “…definitely lived up to [their] lofty reputation as an excellent vintage across Montalcino” (Kerin O’Keefe). It showcases the extraordinary qualities of Sangiovese, Tuscany’s most famous and beloved grape variety, and its ability to exploit the region’s phenomenal terroir. This “…magical year…” (Giacomo Neri of Casanova di Neri) of “radiance and appeal” (Eric Guido) will likely set a new benchmark for Brunello wines for years to come.

According to Italian wine expert, Kerin O’Keefe, she has “…never tasted so many drop-dead-gorgeous young Brunellos from a single vintage.” She confesses that many of the best wines stopped her in her tracks, generating that “…magical moment

New year = new wines! If you’re a Napa Valley wine fan, we have THE bottle for you! 2016 Morgado Sugarloaf Mountain Vineyard Red is a limited production Napa Valley wine, with only 250 cases produced.

Scoring 95 points from Jeb Dunnuck, 2016 Morgado Sugarloaf Mountain Vineyard Red is a blend of 65% Cabernet Franc and 35% Merlot. “This blockbuster styled effort doesn't pull any punches.” - Jeb Dunnuck

We have a close relationship with Kimberly Hatcher, owner and winemaker who honed her amazing skills through the expert tutelage of Russell Bevan. After many years working with winemaker Russell, Kimberly went out on her own to launch Morgado Cellars. We’re able to offer this wine at a

Wine critic James Suckling recently released his top wines from Chile 2023, and out of 100 wines, 2021 Sena was awarded the #1 spot! We’re excited to bring you this 100 pointer, the only Chilean wine to earn a perfect 100 point score this year.

Sena is a unique, 700-case-per-year Bordeaux style made in the Aconcagua Valley just north of Santiago, originally founded by Eduardo Chadwick in cooperation with the late American wine icon, Robert Mondavi. Together, Chadwick and Mondavi set out to reach the full potential of Chile’s wine country by creating an iconic Chilean wine. And in fact, they did! Mondavi and Chadwick searched for four years to find the perfect terroir! In 1997, they released Sena for the first time (vintage 1995), and it set the benchmark for premium Chilean wine.

2021 Sena has a perfect 100 point
