Lambert de Seyssel Petit Royal
I used this lovely sparkling wine from the Savoie for my wedding celebration. Lucky for us,
there is still some available. Get it while you can.
Bottle 42. Glass 10.
Scarpetta Prosecco
We bring Prosecco out for any excuse to celebrate. It’s simpler than Champagne and infinitely better
then most sparkling wines costing much more. There is “meh” Prosecco and there is beautifully
dry and aromatic Prosecco, this is the latter.
Try it, you’ll love it.
Bottle 35. Glass 9.
Aval French Cider
There are few beverages more refreshing than dry, hard cider. This version from Brittany is both crisp and delicate, with lively dry fruit and a lovely mineral driven finish. Feeling adventurous? Try a Breton Kir, a lovely drink combining French cider, creme de cassis and a dash of Calvados.

Diatom 2022 Chardonnay Santa Barbara
Made by renowned winemaker, Greg Brewer, this 100% stainless steel Chardonnay is absolutely
fantastic. Diatom is a shortened version of diatomaceous earth, found in abundance in
Santa Barbara county. The wine is lean, but not austere with flavors of juicy citrus and
elements of green herbs.

Columna 2022 Albariño
Albariño is my “go to” white wine when Ohio days become hot and humid and I need a lighter styled white wine.This version is a little less juicy, a little drier than others we have served. I adore the ripe peach, stone fruit flavors, coupled with a bracing
mineralty. Love this wine to the 10th power.

Gerard Bertrand 2021 Sauvignon Blanc Côtes de Roses
Former French rugby player, Gerard Bertrand, learned winemaking from his father. After his death Gerard returned to the south of France and continues to make world class wines. This Sauvignon blanc from the Languedoc is crisp, clean with a zingy minerality, but also substantial. The bottle is beautiful, as well.
Trust me, you’ll want to take it home.

Robert Sinskey Vineyards 2023 Vin Gris Rosé
Here it is, one of the best rosés of the season, full of light strawberry flavors, floral aromas,
and yes, it’s expensive. There is a very limited amount of this wine so don’t wait too long or you’ll miss out on pure rosé pleasure.
Bottle 56. Quartino 19. Glass 12.5
Mas de Gourgonnier 2023 Rosé Les Baux
Although I may be considered the queen of pink, the rosé from Provence does it for me like no others.
This Grenache based pink is spiced with Syrah, Mourvedre, Cinsault and Cabernet Sauvignon

Robert Biale 2022 Black Chicken Zinfandel Napa Valley
Black Chicken is the ultimate expression of Zinfandel from the cooler part of Napa. Plush blackberry and dark plum fruit with hints of dark chocolate and black pepper. This wine is a classic and if you are a Zinfandel lover, it doesn’t get any better.
Bottle 65. Quartino 22.25 Glass 15.5
Field Recordings 2022 Pinot Noir Edna Valley
We are sad to say goodbye to our collaboration with Peter Rosbeck of Sineann, but also excited
to team up with Andrew Jones of Field Recordings. This Edna Valley Pinot Noir is a fantastic pairing
with Winds Cafe dishes. It’s elegant but bold with black cherry fruit, spicy pepper and a hint
of wood smoke in the finish. We couldn’t be more excited and pleased with this wine.

Kermit Lynch 2022 Vin De Pays De Vaucluse Rouge
I love just about any wine that has a Kermit Lynch label, but this one is pure pre winter comfort. A blend of 55% Grenache, 20% Syrah, 15% Merlot and 10% Marselan with lush cherry fruit and the ever present herbal garrigue. Medium tannins allow this wine to stand up to boldly flavored dishes, but it’s also perfect for warm weather quaffing.
Bottle 38. Quartino 14. Glass 9.5
Casa Santos Lima 2019 Colossal Reserva
Portuguese wines are hot right now and it’s a
good time to discover the joys of these wines, especially this everyday quaffer I discovered over the holidays. A blend of Touriga Nacional,
Alicante Bouschet and less traditionally Syrah. Redolent of red fruits with a long, velvety,
luxurious finish. If you are looking for an affordable wine to imbibe all summer long, this is your jam.
