Champagne Bollinger R.D. 2004

Champagne

June 12, 2026 - The R.D. cuvée is the result of Madame Bollinger’s grand vision. It was an innovative and spectacular cuvée for the time when the fashion was not for old Champagnes: an old vintage, recently disgorged and with an extra-brut dosage. Releasing it promptly after disgorgement captures both the remarkable complexity and extraordinary freshness in the same glass. Fermented barrel by barrel, bottled under cork, and hand-disgorged, R.D. is one of Champagne's most original and important cuvées.

James Suckling - "Ripe plum and strawberry fruit on the nose, combined with chocolate, roasted herbs and violets. Full-bodied, textural and plush, with ripe and broad tannins and a pretty herbal edge."

E. Guigal Gigondas 2020

Gigondas

June 11, 2026 - E. Guigal Gigondas is a quiet storm in their Southern Rhône lineup—a wine of generosity and power that’s still too often overlooked. The Guigals have worked with Gigondas for over 50 years, long before the appellation began receiving the acclaim it deserves. This blend, led by Grenache and deepened by a significant portion of Mourvèdre, bursts with ripe black fruit, spice, and earthy undertones. It’s bold, expressive, and structured, with surprising finesse and aging potential. When poured, it immediately commands attention as a soulful standout.

Wine Advocate - November 20, 2025 "Notes of cassis, mulberry, garrigue and sweet spices preface the 2020 Gigondas, a medium- to full-bodied, supple and charming wine with a layered, delicately tensile profile. It’s framed by fine-grained…

Wine Spectator - November 27, 2023 "A winey version, with steeped cherry and kirsch, this is ripe and broad, starting off glossy and then reined in by cashmere-fine tannins that give real textural framework. A modern,…

Vinous - September 01, 2024 "Ripe strawberry, raspberry, cranberry, dried herbs and a touch of cedar introduce the 2020 Gigondas. Concentrated and expressive, the 2020 is a classic rendition of this red that’s going to…

Frog’s Leap Winery Cabernet Sauvignon 2022

Rutherford

June 10, 2026 - A classic Rutherford Cabernet Sauvignon anchored by organic, dry-farmed estate vineyards and a philosophy of balance over excess. Frog's Leap emphasizes purity of fruit, natural acidity and fine-grained tannins, with oak used to support rather than dominate. The result is a layered, savory Napa Valley Cabernet that delivers depth, elegance and long-term ageability.

VinePair - May 06, 2026 "This wine might be one of the purest expressions of Rutherford Cabernet Sauvignon. It’s not polished around the edges; it has a rustic elegance and power. The nose opens with…

Vinous - November 01, 2025 "The 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon is terrific. Rich and forward, the 2022 is a bit extroverted for Frog's Leap, but all the elements are so well balanced. The Cabernet is typically…
