In 1945, Trappist monastery St. Sixtus stopped selling its beer and an agreement was reached where the monks would brew beer only for themselves.

(Mathieu Szafran-ski, the brewmaster from Westvleteren, became a partner in the brewery and brought with him the recipes, the know-how, and the St. Sixtus yeast strain.) Since 1992 when the Trappist monasteries decided that Authentic Trappist beer could only be brewed in a monastery, those brewed in Watou have been sold under the brand name St. Bernardus.

Hanssens Artisanaal^^

Hanssens Artisanaal is the oldest independent geuze blender in the world. In 1871, former mayor Hanssens Bartholomeus started to brew lambic in the previous Saint-Antonius brewery.

The most significant difference between a gueuze blender and gueuze brewer is that a gueuze blender buys wort (lambic wort) from lambic brewers rather than brewing the lambic himself.

Daniel came to cider from a love of champagne and sparkling wine but his drive to make the best cider came from trying to impress Talia. Dan was convinced that ciders could be made with the complexity of wines. Daniel's focus on excellence can be seen in his relationships with his growers, selection of apples, care during the production process, focus on packaging, and his general depth of knowledge around his product. Together with Daniel, Talia learned more about apple varieties and the rich history of apples and hard cider in the United States. As they worked to grow their family, they also grew in their love for cider

Pietro Beconcini, Vigna Le Nicchie 2012 Tempranillo (100% Tempranillo) San Miniato, Italy

$60.00

The product of a totally unexpected discovery in northern Tuscany's San Miniato: centuries-old tempranillo grapevines in an ancient vineyard. Cuttings were sent to a lab in Piemonte for DNA analysis that revealed their anci ent origin. That the 8th Century pilgrimage path, the Via Francigena, passes through this property may explain how this decidedly Spanish grape was planted, intentionally or not, here and nowhere else in Italy. The clusters from these ancient vines are picked in the first week of September, brought to the drying loft and allowed to dry naturally until mid-October, reducing a quarter of their weight. It requires lengthy matu ration and aging in 70% French and 30% Ameri can oak. After 12 mos., the final wine is blended from the various barrels, racked, and then aged another 12 mos. in the same barrels. After 2 years in oak, the wine goes to bottle, where it remains until the end of the fourth year. Intensely ruby red, it offers equally intense aromas of black berries, dried plums and hints of dark choco late, earth, tobacco & sweet spices. Full-bodied with nice complexity, strong tannins but not drying. Full, round mouthfeel with a long, great finish. 15.5%

Minimus Origin Johan 2015 (100% Pinot Noir) Oregon

$60.00

This single vineyard Pinot Noir is truly something special. The Johan Vineyard is one of the coldest growing sites in the valley, with morning fog and cooling ocean air snaking through the Van Duzer corridor directly from the coast. These sea breezes impart a saline character to the fruit, and help to maintain acidity levels. The result is a bright wine, richly layered with vibrant acidity and silky tannins. 13%

Sean Thackrey 2016 Andromeda (100% Pinot Noir) California

$60.00

This one was described by Sean this way: "More complex and deeply flavored than most of its California brethren, not least because several vineyard characteristics tilt it that way. Devil's Gulch is directly in the path of cool air sweeping in from the Pacific across Tomales Bay, but it is above the fog line; thus there's no lack of sunlight, hence excellent ripening, but little heat, hence no baked berries; and the wine interferes with pollination, guaranteeing a remarkably small yield, often less than one ton per acre. I have, as always, done everything to bring all this together into a uniquely expressive wine; perhaps it's not for those who want Pinot Noir to be light & with a few simple fruit and floral flavors, but it's certainly for those who want something wilder and more mysterious than that, as are so many of the greatest Burgundies, after all. Actually, I believe it; so we may safely conclude that I'm proud of it." 13.8% The antithesis of a corporate winemaker, Sean Thackrey is missed

Walt 2018 La Brisa Sonoma (Pinot Noir) California

$60.00

Articulating the signature characters of Sonoma: vibrant and opulent with underlying brightness and length to the palate. Teeming with ripe red berries & spicy toasted aromas, the wine is lush and persistent on the mid-palate, long-lasting and delicate on the finish. The vineyards in the La Brisa blend, each blessed with cool maritime conditions and limit ing soil profiles, are farmed meticulously for low yields and balance in order to capitalize on their distinctive sites. The wines are never racked and during the long malolactic fermentation, they top and stir each barrel weekly. Prior to bottling, they blend the wines without fining or filtering. 14.5%

Abbazia di Novacella 2022 Praepositus (Kerner) Italy

$50.00

By far the most important producer in the hamlet of Novacella/Neustift in far northeast Italy, is the Abbazia, a 12th century monastery. The monks have taken vows of poverty, chastity, and obedience, running their own working village AND running their own school of viticulture to teach about their winemaking traditions that go back, literally, millen - nia. The cantina dates to 1142—one of the oldest cellars in the world. The wines they make here, all from local grapes, are absolutely sensational; pure, focused and deeply flavored. None are better than the outstanding reserve-level wines called Praepositus, Latin for 'leader.' Here is the linearity, salinity, and precision one expects from this alpine region, but sourced from the very oldest and best sites on the estate, allowing for ultimate ripeness and expression. This vintage was harvested from very steep, organically-farmed vineyards sitting at around 700 meters. Aged solely in stainless, it is a richly textured, sumptuous wine aromatic of just-picked summer apricots, clove spice and lemon verbena before revealing its inner core of Golden Delicious apple, Asian pear and dried Acacia honey. 14.5%

New World

Chasing Harvest 2019 South Island Riesling, New Zealand

$50.00

Created by husband and wife Michael Kush and Jennifer Kingen Kush from Chicago. "Chasing harvest" is a wine industry term that describes travel between the northern and southern hemispheres for extra vintage seasons in one year. Sourced from a single vineyard located in the heart of the Bannockburn subregion of Central Otago, this wine was crafted using experiences gained in the Mosel, Germany as well as in the New World. Hand-harvested and ripe clusters with minimal botrytis were sorted in the winery; the fruit destemmed and crushed was left to macerate on the skins overnight. Gently pressed the next day; after cold-settling, the wine was racked to very old neutral french oak barrels. Fermented long and cool, the wine was left with a very minimal amount of residual sugar to balance with the acidity. The wine remained on its lees over the course of the winter before being bottled in the spring. Only 45 cases produced! 12.5%

Omer Vander Ghinste

When Omer Vander Ghinste started brewing in 1892 in the beautiful West Flemish village of Bellegem, brand names did not yet exist.

Therefore every firstborn son was baptized "Omer", a tradition still kept alive today, 130 years and 5 generations later!

In 1945, Trappist monastery St. Sixtus stopped selling its beer and an agreement was reached where the monks would brew beer only for themselves.

(Mathieu Szafran-ski, the brewmaster from Westvleteren, became a partner in the brewery and brought with him the recipes, the know-how, and the St. Sixtus yeast strain.) Since 1992 when the Trappist monasteries decided that Authentic Trappist beer could only be brewed in a monastery, those brewed in Watou have been sold under the brand name St. Bernardus.

Twelve Trappist monasteries—five in Belgium, two in the Netherlands, and one each in Austria, Italy, England, France, and Spain—currently produce beer, but the Authentic Trappist Product label is assigned by the International Trappist Association (ITA) to just ten breweries which meet their strict criteria: Trappist beer is brewed in living monasteries by monks who are actively involved in the brewing of the beer

Orval 6.2%^

Hanssens Artisanaal^^

Hanssens Artisanaal is the oldest independent geuze blender in the world. In 1871, former mayor Hanssens Bartholomeus started to brew lambic in the previous Saint-Antonius brewery. Nowadays it is helmed by Sidy Hanssens, daughter of Jean, the 4th generation in this family's tradition. It should be noted that after World War I, when the Germans took all the copper brew material to produce war equipment, Bartholomeus was compelled to continue as a blender, like so many others of the time. The most significant difference between a gueuze blender and gueuze brewer is that a gueuze blender buys wort (lambic wort) from lambic brewers rather than brewing the lambic himself. The centuries-old knowledge and techniques of the Hanssens family create these beers, which are unfiltered, unpasteurized, and bottle-conditioned

Pietro Beconcini, Vigna Le Nicchie 2012 Tempranillo (100% Tempranillo) San Miniato, Italy

$60.00

The product of a totally unexpected discovery in northern Tuscany's San Miniato: centuries-old tempranillo grapevines in an ancient vineyard. Cuttings were sent to a lab in Piemonte for DNA analysis that revealed their anci ent origin. That the 8th Century pilgrimage path, the Via Francigena, passes through this property may explain how this decidedly Spanish grape was planted, intentionally or not, here and nowhere else in Italy. The clusters from these ancient vines are picked in the first week of September, brought to the drying loft and allowed to dry naturally until mid-October, reducing a quarter of their weight. It requires lengthy matu ration and aging in 70% French and 30% Ameri can oak. After 12 mos., the final wine is blended from the various barrels, racked, and then aged another 12 mos. in the same barrels. After 2 years in oak, the wine goes to bottle, where it remains until the end of the fourth year. Intensely ruby red, it offers equally intense aromas of black berries, dried plums and hints of dark choco late, earth, tobacco & sweet spices. Full-bodied with nice complexity, strong tannins but not drying. Full, round mouthfeel with a long, great finish. 15.5%

$60.00

This single vineyard Pinot Noir is truly something special.

Sean Thackrey 2016 Andromeda (100% Pinot Noir) California

$60.00

This one was described by Sean this way: "More complex and deeply flavored than most of its California brethren, not least because several vineyard characteristics tilt it that way. Devil's Gulch is directly in the path of cool air sweeping in from the Pacific across Tomales Bay, but it is above the fog line; thus there's no lack of sunlight, hence excellent ripening, but little heat, hence no baked berries; and the wine interferes with pollination, guaranteeing a remarkably small yield, often less than one ton per acre. I have, as always, done everything to bring all this together into a uniquely expressive wine; perhaps it's not for those who want Pinot Noir to be light & with a few simple fruit and floral flavors, but it's certainly for those who want something wilder and more mysterious than that, as are so many of the greatest Burgundies, after all. Actually, I believe it; so we may safely conclude that I'm proud of it." 13.8% The antithesis of a corporate winemaker, Sean Thackrey is missed

New World

Chasing Harvest 2019 South Island Riesling, New Zealand

$50.00

Created by husband and wife Michael Kush and Jennifer Kingen Kush from Chicago. "Chasing harvest" is a wine industry term that describes travel between the northern and southern hemispheres for extra vintage seasons in one year. Sourced from a single vineyard located in the heart of the Bannockburn subregion of Central Otago, this wine was crafted using experiences gained in the Mosel, Germany as well as in the New World. Hand-harvested and ripe clusters with minimal botrytis were sorted in the winery; the fruit destemmed and crushed was left to macerate on the skins overnight. Gently pressed the next day; after cold-settling, the wine was racked to very old neutral french oak barrels. Fermented long and cool, the wine was left with a very minimal amount of residual sugar to balance with the acidity. The wine remained on its lees over the course of the winter before being bottled in the spring. Only 45 cases produced! 12.5%

Omer Vander Ghinste

When Omer Vander Ghinste started brewing in 1892 in the beautiful West Flemish village of Bellegem, brand names did not yet exist.

Therefore every firstborn son was baptized "Omer", a tradition still kept alive today, 130 years and 5 generations later!

In 1945, Trappist monastery St. Sixtus stopped selling its beer and an agreement was reached where the monks would brew beer only for themselves. For beers for sale to the public, they gave a license to the nearby cheese factory, and brewery St. Bernardus was founded. (Mathieu Szafran-ski, the brewmaster from Westvleteren, became a partner in the brewery and brought with him the recipes, the know-how, and the St. Sixtus yeast strain.) Since 1992 when the Trappist monasteries decided that Authentic Trappist beer could only be brewed in a monastery, those brewed in Watou have been sold under the brand name St. Bernardus. The St. Bernardus range is considered a close match in recipe and style to the St. Sixtus/Westvleteren beers, which can be hard to obtain outside the area

Hanssens Artisanaal^^

Hanssens Artisanaal is the oldest independent geuze blender in the world. In 1871, former mayor Hanssens Bartholomeus started to brew lambic in the previous Saint-Antonius brewery. Nowadays it is helmed by Sidy Hanssens, daughter of Jean, the 4th generation in this family's tradition. It should be noted that after World War I, when the Germans took all the copper brew material to produce war equipment, Bartholomeus was compelled to continue as a blender, like so many others of the time. The most significant difference between a gueuze blender and gueuze brewer is that a gueuze blender buys wort (lambic wort) from lambic brewers rather than brewing the lambic himself. The centuries-old knowledge and techniques of the Hanssens family create these beers, which are unfiltered, unpasteurized, and bottle-conditioned

Pietro Beconcini, Vigna Le Nicchie 2012 Tempranillo (100% Tempranillo) San Miniato, Italy

$60.00

The product of a totally unexpected discovery in northern Tuscany's San Miniato: centuries-old tempranillo grapevines in an ancient vineyard. Cuttings were sent to a lab in Piemonte for DNA analysis that revealed their anci ent origin. That the 8th Century pilgrimage path, the Via Francigena, passes through this property may explain how this decidedly Spanish grape was planted, intentionally or not, here and nowhere else in Italy. The clusters from these ancient vines are picked in the first week of September, brought to the drying loft and allowed to dry naturally until mid-October, reducing a quarter of their weight. It requires lengthy matu ration and aging in 70% French and 30% Ameri can oak. After 12 mos., the final wine is blended from the various barrels, racked, and then aged another 12 mos. in the same barrels. After 2 years in oak, the wine goes to bottle, where it remains until the end of the fourth year. Intensely ruby red, it offers equally intense aromas of black berries, dried plums and hints of dark choco late, earth, tobacco & sweet spices. Full-bodied with nice complexity, strong tannins but not drying. Full, round mouthfeel with a long, great finish. 15.5%

This single vineyard Pinot Noir is truly something special.

Sean Thackrey 2016 Andromeda (100% Pinot Noir) California

$60.00

This one was described by Sean this way: "More complex and deeply flavored than most of its California brethren, not least because several vineyard characteristics tilt it that way. Devil's Gulch is directly in the path of cool air sweeping in from the Pacific across Tomales Bay, but it is above the fog line; thus there's no lack of sunlight, hence excellent ripening, but little heat, hence no baked berries; and the wine interferes with pollination, guaranteeing a remarkably small yield, often less than one ton per acre. I have, as always, done everything to bring all this together into a uniquely expressive wine; perhaps it's not for those who want Pinot Noir to be light & with a few simple fruit and floral flavors, but it's certainly for those who want something wilder and more mysterious than that, as are so many of the greatest Burgundies, after all. Actually, I believe it; so we may safely conclude that I'm proud of it." 13.8% The antithesis of a corporate winemaker, Sean Thackrey is missed

The amount of clay in the soils varies by parcel and elevation, providing them with richer, fruitier Sauvignon Blanc and fruit that is more linear and mineral. 13%

New World

Chasing Harvest 2019 South Island Riesling, New Zealand

$50.00

Created by husband and wife Michael Kush and Jennifer Kingen Kush from Chicago. "Chasing harvest" is a wine industry term that describes travel between the northern and southern hemispheres for extra vintage seasons in one year. Sourced from a single vineyard located in the heart of the Bannockburn subregion of Central Otago, this wine was crafted using experiences gained in the Mosel, Germany as well as in the New World. Hand-harvested and ripe clusters with minimal botrytis were sorted in the winery; the fruit destemmed and crushed was left to macerate on the skins overnight. Gently pressed the next day; after cold-settling, the wine was racked to very old neutral french oak barrels. Fermented long and cool, the wine was left with a very minimal amount of residual sugar to balance with the acidity. The wine remained on its lees over the course of the winter before being bottled in the spring. Only 45 cases produced! 12.5%

Omer Vander Ghinste

When Omer Vander Ghinste started brewing in 1892 in the beautiful West Flemish village of Bellegem, brand names did not yet exist.

Therefore every firstborn son was baptized "Omer", a tradition still kept alive today, 130 years and 5 generations later!

In 1945, Trappist monastery St. Sixtus stopped selling its beer and an agreement was reached where the monks would brew beer only for themselves. For beers for sale to the public, they gave a license to the nearby cheese factory, and brewery St. Bernardus was founded. (Mathieu Szafran-ski, the brewmaster from Westvleteren, became a partner in the brewery and brought with him the recipes, the know-how, and the St. Sixtus yeast strain.) Since 1992 when the Trappist monasteries decided that Authentic Trappist beer could only be brewed in a monastery, those brewed in Watou have been sold under the brand name St. Bernardus. The St. Bernardus range is considered a close match in recipe and style to the St. Sixtus/Westvleteren beers, which can be hard to obtain outside the area

Hanssens Artisanaal^^

Hanssens Artisanaal is the oldest independent geuze blender in the world. In 1871, former mayor Hanssens Bartholomeus started to brew lambic in the previous Saint-Antonius brewery.

It should be noted that after World War I, when the Germans took all the copper brew material to produce war equipment, Bartholomeus was compelled to continue as a blender, like so many others of the time. The most significant difference between a gueuze blender and gueuze brewer is that a gueuze blender buys wort (lambic wort) from lambic brewers rather than brewing the lambic himself. The centuries-old knowledge and techniques of the Hanssens family create these beers, which are unfiltered, unpasteurized, and bottle-conditioned

Fresh and dry, with soft tannins, plentiful red fruit and wonderful acidity. Currant, wild berries, and floral notes of rose and violet mingle with just the slightest hint of earthy spice. 12%

Pietro Beconcini, Vigna Le Nicchie 2012 Tempranillo (100% Tempranillo) San Miniato, Italy

$60.00

The product of a totally unexpected discovery in northern Tuscany's San Miniato: centuries-old tempranillo grapevines in an ancient vineyard. Cuttings were sent to a lab in Piemonte for DNA analysis that revealed their anci ent origin. That the 8th Century pilgrimage path, the Via Francigena, passes through this property may explain how this decidedly Spanish grape was planted, intentionally or not, here and nowhere else in Italy. The clusters from these ancient vines are picked in the first week of September, brought to the drying loft and allowed to dry naturally until mid-October, reducing a quarter of their weight. It requires lengthy matu ration and aging in 70% French and 30% Ameri can oak. After 12 mos., the final wine is blended from the various barrels, racked, and then aged another 12 mos. in the same barrels. After 2 years in oak, the wine goes to bottle, where it remains until the end of the fourth year. Intensely ruby red, it offers equally intense aromas of black berries, dried plums and hints of dark choco late, earth, tobacco & sweet spices. Full-bodied with nice complexity, strong tannins but not drying. Full, round mouthfeel with a long, great finish. 15.5%

This single vineyard Pinot Noir is truly something special.

Sean Thackrey 2016 Andromeda (100% Pinot Noir) California

$60.00

This one was described by Sean this way: "More complex and deeply flavored than most of its California brethren, not least because several vineyard characteristics tilt it that way. Devil's Gulch is directly in the path of cool air sweeping in from the Pacific across Tomales Bay, but it is above the fog line; thus there's no lack of sunlight, hence excellent ripening, but little heat, hence no baked berries; and the wine interferes with pollination, guaranteeing a remarkably small yield, often less than one ton per acre. I have, as always, done everything to bring all this together into a uniquely expressive wine; perhaps it's not for those who want Pinot Noir to be light & with a few simple fruit and floral flavors, but it's certainly for those who want something wilder and more mysterious than that, as are so many of the greatest Burgundies, after all. Actually, I believe it; so we may safely conclude that I'm proud of it." 13.8% The antithesis of a corporate winemaker, Sean Thackrey is missed

New World

Chasing Harvest 2019 South Island Riesling, New Zealand

$50.00

Created by husband and wife Michael Kush and Jennifer Kingen Kush from Chicago. "Chasing harvest" is a wine industry term that describes travel between the northern and southern hemispheres for extra vintage seasons in one year. Sourced from a single vineyard located in the heart of the Bannockburn subregion of Central Otago, this wine was crafted using experiences gained in the Mosel, Germany as well as in the New World. Hand-harvested and ripe clusters with minimal botrytis were sorted in the winery; the fruit destemmed and crushed was left to macerate on the skins overnight. Gently pressed the next day; after cold-settling, the wine was racked to very old neutral french oak barrels. Fermented long and cool, the wine was left with a very minimal amount of residual sugar to balance with the acidity. The wine remained on its lees over the course of the winter before being bottled in the spring. Only 45 cases produced! 12.5%
