Spring is finally here and even though the weather might not yet reflect it, we’re going to celebrate with three whites that pair perfectly with the season.
Guipiere Gros Plant L'Ecailler 2024
$16.99
Founded in 1842 and situated in Vallet, just southeast of Nantes where the Loire River spills into the Atlantic Ocean, Château Guipière is a 28ha estate focused on cultivating the two mainstay grapes of the region, the melon de Bourgogne and Gros Plant (a.k.a. folle blanche) a specialty of the region which attracts a small cult audience for being one of the most racy, high acid, and minerally white wines in the world. The bottle for this tasting bone-dry with citrus notes and a nice balance of minerality and acidity.
Mary Taylor Cotes De Gascogne 2024
$13.99
When founding partner Mary Taylor first fell in love with wine in the early 1990’s, it was the European classics that truly spoke to her and stole her heart. As a young professional selling French and Italian wine, first in the New York wine auctions and then as a merchant, she quickly learned to appreciate wine in the “Old World” way— not as a luxury good reserved for special occasions, but a living agricultural product that belongs to everyday life.Today, Mary Taylor Wine’s mission is to unlock the world of European “appellation” wines by working with individual growers in multiple villages— from Bordeaux to Nîmes to Valençay— who produce exceptional, regionally-distinctive wines at extremely accessible prices. Mary Taylor has long been a favorite of ours, and we can’t wait to share her bottle from Cotes De Gascogne in Southwest France. It delivers notes of tropical fruit, lemon, minerality and bright acidity. We think you will agree that this is a delicious wine that offers great value.
Birichino Malvasia Bianca 2023
$21.99
Alex Krause and John Locke founded Birichino in Santa Cruz in 2008. Drawing on a combined four decades making wine in California, France, Italy, and beyond. They source from a number of carefully farmed, family-owned, own-rooted 19th and early 20th century vineyards (and a few from the late disco era) planted by and large in more moderate, marine-influenced climates. Their malvasia bianca offers tropical fruit, peach and floral notes, and makes for the perfect springtime bottle.
