Regular price
$79.00
Sale
This is our local club, designed for folks in and around Napa who like to pick up their wines in person.
What do you get with this monthly subscription?
Two wines that drink deliciously right now, ready for pickup on the 15th of each month. These are small production wines, often from other parts of the world, that will reward curious palates, exploratory wine drinkers, and anyone who likes good juice!
Typically, we choose one red and one white each month, but occasionally the mood strikes and we pick a rosé, orange wine, or sparkling wine too.
Yeah, but what other perks do I get?

December selections:
Champagne, Lebeau-Batiste "Signature" Brut
Long-time fans will recall that we included this producer's "Tradition" bottling as part of our first December club, two years ago.
Well, we're still enamored with the story of the couple behind Lebeau-Batiste. Emilie and Florent met in a nightclub at age 17, joined forces in winemaking and motorcycle racing, and together have been an ascendant star in the modern era of Champagne grower-producers. This bottling is mostly Chardonnay, sourced from the village of Chavot-Courcourt just outside the Côte de Blancs. Oh, and we got about half of the amount that made it to the US. Happy New Year!
Saint-Émilion Grand Cru,
Clos Petit-Corbin 2021
Danielle Meunier is a 4th-generation winegrower in the pristine Roman village of Saint-Émilion. She makes two wines, one dominated by Cab Franc that we've long loved, and this—a new find for us! It's pure Merlot made without new wood, from a sandy vineyard site called Corbin.
Misguided detractors of the variety will be shocked by the elegance of this wine. And a quick note about the confusing Grand Cru system in Saint-Émilion: St-Émilion Grand Cru is its own appellation, superior to the basic St-Émilion areas, whereas "Grand Cru Classé" refers to a producer who's been deemed worthy of that distinction.
