Naveran 2022 Brut Cava

I adore Cava. There’s just something about all those bubbles that just screams “PARTY”. This producer has been around since 1901, uses all estate fruit and is certified organic. A blend of Xarel-lo that adds body, Macabeo gives aromatic intensity and Parellada
lends acidity to the wine. If you love Cava as much as I do, this is one of the best so have a glass and celebrate, relax, appreciate, give thanks and remember to breathe.

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.

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.

House of Brown 2022 Chardonnay

We are super excited to feature House of Brown Chardonnay, an offshoot of Brown Winery, the
first Black owned winery in Napa. This beautiful
 wine uses all Lodi fruit and is full of tropical flavors
 of pineapple and guava with a clean, crisp finish. Produced by women of color, certified
 sustainable and vegan friendly.

Chateau Haut-Vigneau 2020 Blanc Pessac-Leognan 

An elevated blend of 85% Sauvignon Blanc and 15% Semillion, this wine has aromas of wet limestone and chalk.
 Upon tasting, clementine, lemon peel and rosemary burst out. A balanced but citrus forward wine that
pairs perfectly with any vegetarian or fish dish.

Emilio Moro 2023 Polvorete Godello

Godello may not be your “go to” white wine, but it should be. This Spanish varietal from Bierzo juxtaposes a creamy texture with zingy minerality. Lip smacking juicy peach and stone fruit flavors are followed by a fresh, crisp finish. This wine is like no other. Give it a try, you won’t be disappointed.

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 crystalline  minerality. The bottle is beautiful, as well.Trust me, you’ll want to take it home.

Arnot-Roberts 2024 Rosé

I bought this rosé last year from one of my favorite wine people, Chris Dillman, the wine buyer at Littleton’s Market in Columbus. When I tried to buy some for the restaurant I discovered it was all procured for Mr. Dillman. Alas, 2024 is a different story. I have a small amount of this dry rosé with peachy, grapefruit  flavors produced primarily from Touriga Nacional, with additions of Tinta Cão, Trincadeira, and Grenache. If you are up in Columbus, stop in at Littleton’s for lunch and say hi to one of best in the business.

Domaine Lafage 2024 Miraflors Rosé

Produced from Grenache Gris and Mourvedre, this
rosé from the Roussillon uses organic practices. The wine is full of strawberry/raspberry fruit with a
hint of orange peel. Luckily this was an early arrival
 for our rosé selection this year. With the threat of tariffs, imported rosé has some limited availability.

Silver Ghost 2023 Cabernet Sauvignon Napa

Napa Cabernet has never been my jam, that is until I tasted this beauty from Silver Ghost. It’s a sustainably farmed, low intervention wine, implementing organic practices. A blend of 92% Cabernet Sauvignon, 4% Merlot, 4% Petit Verdot with dark black fruit flavors with 50% of the wine aged in used French oak adding a lush, silky mouthfeel without overt oakiness. Finally a Napa Cabernet that feeds my
 French loving soul. I’m converted!

Field Recordings 2022 Pinot Noir Edna Valley

We are 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.

Marques de Legarda 2019 Rioja Crianza

With all the international styling of wine, it’s hard to tell what varietal anything is these days.
This Rioja transports me to the small cafes and tapas bars in Spain, where the waiter suggests the house wine with a simple lunch and it
turns out to be the most delicious food appropriate combination you’ve ever tasted.
An old world styled wine using 91% Tempranillo, 7% Graciano y 2% Mazuelo. Lovely
black cherry fruit with rustic elements of leather and a light use of oak. Classic.
