‘Esencia del Sur’ extra virgin olive oil
$10.00The 100% Spanish, ''Esencia del Sur'' Extra Virgen Olive Oil is a finest product of the south region of Spain – Andalusia. From the organoleptic point of view, this olive oil tends towards greenish and green-yellowish tones that are easily recognizable. Its odor is usually defined as fruity, fresh and fragrant, while its taste is noted for its distinctive bitterness, with an intense flavor of natural olive, leaving a prolonged aftertaste in the mouth. Esencia del Sur extra virgin olive oils has a high content of monounsaturated oleic acid, and with a high proportion of antioxidants. The oil is 100% Picual (type of olive) variety, which is a fundamental fact for the organoleptic and sensorial characteristics of the oil.

Our Addax 2016 Tench Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon stains the glass with inky purple blackberries, giving up notions of cherries, cassis, and plum with asphalt and Italian leather.

A streak of cherry bisects the supple texture and sleek structure in this elegant red. Hints of licorice, menthol, leather and tobacco add depth as this plays out on the chewy, resonant finish. Best from 2022 through 2038. 2,800 cases made and only 500 cases imported.

Alexander Valley Vineyards 2016 Chardonnay
$13.99–$155.88Alexander Valley California
There are fresh fruit aromas of apple, pear, pineapple, and vanilla mixed with floral notes and slight oak in the glass. The 2016 is rich and creamy with slight citrus notes along with crisp flavors of pear, apple, tropical fruits and nectarines. The Viognier adds a slight floral component and a rich mouth-feel. This vintage has bright acidity, nice balance and a very long aftertaste.

Alion by Vega Sicilia 2013 Tempranillo
$69.99Ribera del Duero Spain
Wine Advocate 94 RatingThe careful selection of the grapes and the work directives even for the purchased grapes has clearly paid off in the 2013 Alión, which has great freshness and perfume. It was cropped from a relatively normal growing season, but with a cold September with some rains that provoked a slight delay in the picking and especially the seed for a severe sorting of the grapes. It's considered a challenging vintage in general, and the bottles produced are slightly less than in the healthier 2012. It's always pure Tempranillo from over 30-year-old vines in different villages: Pesquera, Padilla, Moradillo… It fermented in oak vats with indigenous yeasts after a three-day cold soak, followed by malolactic and 12-14 months in new French barriques. It might be a lighter vintage for Alión, but one that has a subtler profile and harmony. The palate is medium-bodied with very fine tannins, with a thread of acidity going through its core and lifting it up. An elegant Alión. 260,000 bottles and some larger formats were filled in May 2015.

Very impressive red plums and the Alion has a very approachable feel to it, supple and even. The nose delivers some savory, slightly tarry and earthy character with a classic, direct and easy-to-understand feel. Some dried flowers, too. The palate has medium body and delivers fleshy, round red cherries, gently savory, spicy elements and fine, long and detailed tannins. A great Alion, full of flavor, very fresh. Drink across the next 15 years.
