Here are five standout values you’ve been waiting for, all priced under $30! While we are known for our inventory of world-class and highly sought-after wines, we are equally passionate about discovering inexpensive gems that still taste like the world’s greatest wines. We’re highlighting five values from around the world that combine great taste and affordability. These wines all make great additions to your wine rotation.

2018 Rocca di Montegrossi Chianti Classico: Chianti is one of the most popular Italian wines - it's delicious, pairs well with many foods and is priced low. This $17.99 wine is an example of the tremendous value that exists from the Chianti region of central Tuscany. With

It’s Rosé season, and demand for this delightful pink wine continues to be high! We have an amazing inventory of Rosé, but it never lasts long. Rosés can be enjoyed with a variety of food, making it a perfect choice to pour during summer days. It’s great for the beach, a picnic or sipping poolside. The price is nice, too. You can find really great Rosés in the $20 range, and sometimes for a little less.

We’re excited to feature five standout Rosés from the Provence region in the south of France, the Rosé capital of the world, that capture the true spirit of the region. The Rosés from Provence are crisp and light and not overly fruity or big. These five fan-favorite Rosés are all from the 2020 vintage, which is an outstanding vintage for Provence and one of the decade’s best.

2020 Miraval Rosé (Pitt-Jolie-Perrin): Miraval Rosé has

While spring and summer may be the seasons for popping bottles of white wine and Rosé, red wines appropriate for summer deserve attention too! And one of our favorite summer reds to pour is Pinot Noir – it’s light, fruity and aromatic. Burgundy is the winemaking region that’s most famous for its world-class Pinot Noirs, but outstanding Pinot Noirs are being produced all over the globe, including the USA, New Zealand, Chile and Argentina.

We’re excited to feature this amazing, 96 pointer from Argentina – 2018 Bodega Chacra Pinot Noir Lunita. Located in the Rio Negro Valley of northern Patagonia, Bodega Chacra, established in 2004, is already synonymous with quality, but their “Lunita” is especially sought-after.

This Argentinian label has a very interesting story behind it. The creator of Bodega Chacra, Piero Incisa della Rocchetta, is the grandso

The weather is finally warming up, and we love enjoying a delicious glass of Sauvignon Blanc this time of year! Sauvignon Blanc is one of the most popular white wine varietals, and it’s also one of the most affordable white wines that you can find on the market. Typically, Sauvignon Blancs are crisp, have sharp acidity and are refreshing.

This green-skinned wonder-varietal makes an excellent standalone varietal bottle and is one of the most represented white wine grapes in Bordeaux. Outside of France, you can expect to encounter this varietal in Australia, California, Chile, Italy, New Zealand and Washington.

We’re sharing three of our favorites, all from different wine producing regions, and all are excellent.  

2020 Cloudy Bay Sauvignon Blanc Marlborough (New Zealand) – New Zealand has some splendid Sauvi

Rosé season is here, and we have a new, high-end one to introduce you to just in time for warm, sunny weather - 2020 Donnafugata Rosa di Sicilia Dolce and Gabbana! Their first vintage (2019) debuted last summer, and we’re excited to offer you this delicious Rosé. It comes from a partnership between two iconic Italian brands, the Italian luxury fashion designer, Dolce & Gabbana, and the Sicilian winemaker, Donnafugata.

This designer wine is an ode to Sicily, the Mediterranean’s largest island, and is made of a blend of Nerello Mascalese and Nocera, two Sicilian grape varieties. It’s a bright pale pink color with a bouquet of jasmine and strawberry, peach and citrus notes.<

Many of you are already familiar with Waterstone Cabernet Sauvignon. Over the past decade, Waterstone Winery has built a reputation for its top quality Napa Valley Cabernets. Part of what makes Waterstone so special is that its wines taste like Cali-Cult wines without the Cali-Cult prices, impressing wine aficionados as well as those just discovering the world of wine. We were first introduced to this winery several years ago, and 2001 was the first vintage we sold. Waterstone has been a best-selling wine at Sokolin, year after year.

The 2017 vintage ($34.99 / btl) is now in stock, and it’s delicious! The ‘17 vintage comes from “well-established” hillside vineyards which make the underpinnings of this incredible wine. These vineyards have provided an inte

“Once in a while a white wine comes out of Italy that beats even the top white Burgundies ... and this is it!” – Dave Sokolin

We’re excited to bring you a 96 point, white wine from the Antinori family, 2018 Antinori Cervaro della Sala. The Antinori family, esteemed and highly regarded, has been making wine since the late 1300s, spanning 26 generations. They have estates in Tuscany and Umbria, as well as other parts of Italy and abroad. Castello della Sala, located in Umbria, is one of the estates owned by the Antinori family, and the name Cervaro comes from the family who owned Castello della Sala during the 14^th century. 1985 was the first vintage of Cervaro produced. The concept behind this wine was to make a white wine that had the ability to age over time.

The #1 Bordeaux of the Year: 2010 Rausan Segla

"2010 Rausan Segla is my #1 Bordeaux for 2020, rated 98 points TWICE and only $149 / bottle. 10-year-old Chateau stock Margaux from Super Second Growths generally cost $300+ / bottle (not only $149). This is the #1 best deal in back-vintage Bordeaux today." - Dave Sokolin

"A wine that could easily be mistaken for a First Growth..." - Jeb Dunnuck

"It has everything in the right place. Best ever?..." - James Suckling

We have very limited quantity of this wine remaining, so order this one before it’s gone!

The #1 White Burgundy of the Year: 2018 Henri Boillot Puligny Montrachet Clos de la Mouchere

We're excited to bring you one of the most highly sought-after and difficult to find rosés on the market - 2019 Domaine Tempier Bandol Rosé!

Domaine Tempier is recognized as one of the top rosé producers in the world. Robert Parker even said, "Always one of my favorite estates, Domaine Tempier's Bandol Rosé remains one of the world's reference points for how much flavor and character can be built into a rosé wine."

Founded in 1834, Domaine Tempier was a working farm with vineyards of Mourvèdre, but when Lucien Peyraud married Lucie ‘Lulu’ Tempier in 1936, the mythic winery truly began.

The focus on Mourvèdre is what separates Bandol form the rest of Provence, especially when discussing rosé. It has the juicin
