These are some of the bottles I grabbed for myself to pour at the Harary house this spring. Perfect for the upcoming nice weather, this spring case features four great wines (3 btls each). We have two great white wines, one from an Italian white wine legend, and the other from France’s hottest white wine region outside of Sancerre. We have a great Red wine for grilling with the Nicholas Wines favorite, “Butterfly Effect” from our organic winemakers in the Roussilon and we have a delicious, crisp, brand new lip-smacking Rose from our friends at Benoni. Plus, it’s 26% off regular prices!
Two of these wines have never been offered before (Benoni Rose, Renaudat Reuilly Blanc), one hasn’t been offered in a long-time but is a Michelin-star restaurant favorite and perfect for food coming off the grill (Effet Papillon) and one is an old-vine Arneis from one of Italy’s all-time great white wine producers, that is poured at both Union Square Cafe and Del Posto. Not too shabby!
Every spring case includes:
(3 btls) Effet Papillon Rouge Cotes du Roussilon 2020
(3 btls) Benoni Rose of Pinot Noir Oregon 2021
(3 btls) Almondo Roero Arneis Vigne Sparse 2020
(3 btls) Valery Renaudat Reuilly Blanc 2020

The Tonelli family are royalty in this region, with four generations of grape growers leading the way and even establishing the local D.O.C. Their 2020 Ponente is 100% Sangiovese and is an absolutely incredible wine for the price. Less than $20/bottle for fleshed out, high-toned, zipped up Sangiovese? Count me in. It screams for pizza or summer salads, squash or a charcuterie plate. It’s about to be one of your new favorites.
Poggio Al Sole’s high elevation vineyards bring out the Burgundy-side of Chianti Classico, producing lush wines with just a touch of earthy rusticity and great length. Their 2019 edition is sleek and elegant, with great aromatic complexity and length. The nose is really special, with soaring aromatics of black cherry, anise and peony. Give it time to unwind in the glass. It’s fresh and long on the palate, with the fine tannic structure that defines ever classic vintage, making it great at the table tonight and any night for the next decade.

With Herve and Fabre Montmayou wracking up NYT features, huge scores, gold medals and lifetime achievement awards, I’m left with one choice: get in now or be left in the cold. Waiting for the scores to roll in is a luxury that we know longer have with Fabre Montmayou. Good for the winery, but not so good for us. Rest assured though, the 2020 Cabernet Franc Herve sent me is fantastic, and will surely be minted with the same kind of high-flying praise as the vintage before it. But by that time, you’ll only have a bottle or two left in the cellar.

” The 2016 Château Poesia is more open and showy compared to the Barde Haut, offering fabulous limestone-like character in its kirsch and currant fruits and notes of dried herbs, white truffle, and dried flowers. Possessing medium to full body, ripe, present tannins, terrific concentration, and a great finish, it’s another incredibly classy Saint Emilion from the Garcin-Lévêque family.”
