SOUTH AFRICA

—

South African Cabernet has a character all its own, and this bottle is a perfect example. Layers of blackcurrant, ripe blackberry, mulberry, and cassis mingle with hints of fynbos, cedar, dark chocolate, and a touch of tobacco leaf. Firm but polished tannins give it structure, while the finish remains smooth and inviting, making it a wine you'll find yourself reaching back for throughout the evening.

ITALY | EXCLUSIVE POUR

—

Every summer needs a white like this sitting in the fridge, ready for whatever the day brings. Crisp pear, Honeycrisp apple, white peach, lemon blossom, and a hint of alpine herbs lead into a clean, mineral-driven finish that stays bright long after your last sip. It's elegant without trying too hard and feels right at home on a warm summer patio.
