For hundreds of years, the only grapes grown in the Elqui Valley were used for the nation’s most popular spirit, Pisco, a yellowish Brandy made from fermented grape juice. It wasn’t until the early 2000’s that the Oliver Family came in and started Viña Mayu, eager to prove that the region’s unique weather patterns with chalky limestone and clay soils would actually be perfect for some varietals: specifically Syrah and Sauvignon Blanc.
The best part of Chilean wines? The price tags they still carry. With lively, sophisticated Sauvignon Blancs, this is the type of quality that commands $25+/btl in the States for domestic Sauv Blancs, and has even gone above $20 for a lot of the bottles out of Marlborough, NZ. But today, we’re right in the sweet spot- with a $15/btl of delicious Sauvignon Blanc, down to just $13.50/btl on cases.
Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate called 2019, “a very good vintage overall in Chile” and honed in on Vina Mayu in particular. The winery earned several 90+ scores for their 2019s including an excellent 90pt review for this beauty. That’s a strong vote of confidence for a little known producer in an unheralded region that with wines this good, will not be flying under the radar much longer.

90 Points, Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate
The 2019 Sauvignon Blanc has a pungent nose with notes of green peppercorns and green beans, intensely herbal, with the characteristic lightness of the northern wines and high altitude. This has the influence of the coast and has a somewhat salty aftertaste, pungent flavors and a refreshing mouthfeel.

The newly released Riesling Feinherb 2021 is a lively, juicy wine with an elegant bouquet of minerals, wet stone and ripe fruit. On the palate, the wine’s slight off-dry component is beautifully balanced by the steely acidity typical of the Mosel. Because this is freshly released, the fruit is vibrant and succulent and it comes in somewhere between off-dry and semi-sweet. It’s a great example of Riesling, especially at the price.
One of the best places to look for great Tuesday nighters are the sandy, limestone-laden hills of Asti. And within Asti, there is no white wine calling card that holds a candle to Moscato. Here it is king. Gianni Doglia naturally farms a tiny estate in the picturesque hamlet of Castagnole Lanze. His Moscato is the product of old vines, vinfied without oak to preserve its incredible fruit. This is serious, high-quality and hand-harvested Moscat, that oozes with sweet tropical fruits and a hint of minerality that stays on your tongue with each sip. This is also the perfect wine for anyone searching for a low alcohol option as well.
This is a super elegant Meursault from the family-run estate located in the village of Monthelie, between Volnay and Meursault in the heart of Burgundy’s Côte de Beaune. It leads with nutty aromas of brioche, fresh butter and delicate citrus and is extremely well structured, long and stylish with great purity of fruit.
93 Points, Decanter
Of course, the Trefethens’ Chardonnay history is well documented. It dates back to the Judgement of Paris and the 1979 Wine World Olympics hosted by the French publication Gault & Millau, where their Chardonnay finished first overall. That pursuit of excellence is still just as strong as ever, as evidenced by the family’s most recent Chardonnay bottling. It’s a 93-point beauty that absolutely dazzles, especially at its incredibly modest price tag.
