Jumbo Time Sparkling Chardonnay (Pet Nat) Bottle
We’re bringing back Ladies Night—just in time for Summer! This is our favorite Summer pet-nat, a crisp and mineral-driven sparkler made with the first pick of California Chardonnay from Hawkeye Ranch. “The first pick” means the grapes are harvested a bit earlier in the season, which lends the wine a refreshing tartness and crisper edge. It also often means less alcohol—so, yes this is good for drinking at any time of day, morning through night. Tastes like salty tonic water and lime, or the first bite of a crisp, tart green apple. Smells like green plums, and early season stone fruit. It shouldn’t explode when you open it, but be sure to get this one super cold before drinking! % Chardonnay % ABV, Dry, No added sulfites
Il Poggio Di Gavi "Nuvole" - Córtese (Bottle)
Il Poggio di Gavi does indeed sit on a Poggio, or “little hill,” northwest of the village of Gavi, though the name of the estate also refers to its proprietor, Francesca Poggio. Continuing her mother’s legacy, Francesca makes deliciously mineral whites from the traditional grape of the region, cortese. On south-southwest-facing slopes of the Rovereto Hills near the border of Piedmont and Liguria, Il Poggio’s vineyards benefit from plentiful sun, sand and clay soils, and the salty coolness of the sea to the south. The yields of the hand-harvested vines are kept intentionally low, and the aim in the winemaking is to intervene with the natural process as little as possible. This Gavi is clean and bright: floral with a touch of spice on the nose, herbs and lemon on the palate. Sustainably grown, low-intervention/natural wine, vegan. ABV .%
Stolpman “Unfiltered” Cloudy & Unfiltered Sauvy B. (Bottle)
Tasting Notes: Guava, orange zest, lemonade on a hot parched day. A ripe tropical wave of candied pineapple. Milky, even creamy, mouth-filling and coating beneath the citrus spray tingle. A touch of spice, mineral and salinity bring home a subtle nod that this is indeed Sauvignon Blanc, but such a departure from the norm. ABV: .%

Joto Graffiti Cup Sake ( Ml)
The nose on this special cup sake is a great collection of pear, peach, melon, and sugar aromas. This cup is amazing! The owner of the brewery grows his own rice, and he uses his best rice varietal called Yamadanishiki to make this rich and balanced brew. Talk about an amazing "feeling-AND-flavor" sake that drinks far more expensive. Look for pear, nougat, marshmallow, cookies 'n cream, apple pie, cake, and sweet rice flavors that are rich, chewy, viscous, and totally delicious. Don’t let the paper cup fool you, because this brew is top shelf. WORD: Super Smooth WINE: Soft Reds/Creamy Whites BEER: Creamy Ales FOODS: Salty, savory, greasy, fried and grilled fare.
