The Wines!!

Picpoul de Pinet, Hughes Beaulieu $8.99

Picpoul de Pinet is known as the Muscadet of the south of France, and is one of the named crus of the Coteaux de Languedoc. Picpoul means "lip stinger," which refers to the high acidity of its must. Great with oysters and seafood. 100% Picpoul grapes, also known as Folle Blanche or Gros Plant.


Domaine Felines Jourdan $14.99

The Domaine Félines Jourdan belongs to the Jourdan’s family since 1983. Wine-producers for several generations in the Languedoc area, our family has the passion of the vines and we use all our knowledge to do the best wines.
Our vineyards are located in an ideal geographical area, at the edge of the Thau lagoon on the Mediterranean coast. They benefit from cool marine breezes, ensuring the quality of our wines.
The region is truly unique, a cool terroir that is ideal for crisp whites and bright reds, and in particular for the Picpoul de Pinet.
In the winery, we use temperature-controlled stainless steel fermentation tanks to preserve the freshness of the wines.
The richness of different grape varieties, local soils and methods of vinification, together with a blend of tradition and technology, give the wines their complexity and originality.


Pas de L'Escalette Petit $20.99

This Languedoc rouge composed of Grenache, Carignan, Cinsault and Syrah, all completely destemmed and fermented in 50 hectaliter tonneau. Importer Joli Vin says: "bright red-ruby, vibrant, palate staining color. Lively aromas and flavors of black cherry, licorice, pepper and a decidedly floral/lavender dimension. Sappy, silky and concentrated. Sweet fruit and velvety texture with tons of electricity and energy. Vin de copain par excellence!"


Castel Mavre Grandee Cuvee, Corbieres $16.99


Deep and intense color, powerful aromas of dark berry fruit, prune and coffee nuances, and a persistent finish
