Conundrum is sourced from California’s premier winegrowing regions. While the exact blend is under wraps, every vintage includes Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, Semillon and Viognier. It’s versatile with refreshing stone fruit, juicy pear, a hint of citrus and a dry finish.

Folonari Valpolicella is admired for its fruit-forward flavors. This wine is light to medium purple in the glass with hints of black cherries and raspberries. Medium plus acidity gives freshness turning to red fruit notes.

??????????? ???? ?????????? (???????, ?????) $??.??/??????

A perfect expression of Tuscan Sangiovese, this wine shows classic varietal aromas of spiced black cherries, accented with subtle hints of dry herbs and earth. On the palate a bath of sweet red currants is supported by gripping tannins, finishing up with savory richness. Ideal with grilled red meats, but also pairs well with cured meats (think Antipasto).

This 2019 vintage is a textbook definition of Malbec. Bright violet in color, this wine is fresh and floral, featuring blackberry, plums and violets on the nose and palate. The wine is soft and round with a noticeable minerality, silky tannins mark a lengthy finish.

This wine from the Hess Collection delivers luxurious notes of black currant, plum and black cherry. Finely grained tannins provide a round, balanced mouthfeel. The layers of juicy black fruit lead to elements of dark chocolate supported by a subtle vanilla oak spice that adds to the complexity of the wine and shows its finesse on the long, lingering finish.
