Cruzat Nature Cuvee Reserve NV: From the iconic Cruzat winery in Mendoza, Argentina, the project of sparkling wine legend Pedro Grand, this blend of 60% Pinot Noir and 40% Chardonnay is pure deliciousness in a glass. Aged for 24 months on its lees and another 24 in the bottle, it’s wonderfully dry with just almost no residual sugar and zesty citrus notes, hints of brioche, and a savory, nuanced finish. Perfect for those who love clean, precise wines, it goes great with virtually everything from creamy cheeses to lobster or chocolate truffles. 

Aquitania Sol de Sol Brut Nature NV: This sparkling wine is a shining example of why it’s been called the “Champagne of Chile.”French in style due to its founders yet hailing from southern Traiguén region, this bubbly embodies elegance and balance in every sip. A blend of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, it's dry, crisp and has fine, persistent bubbles. With no added sugar and 24 months aging on the lees in French oak, it mirrors the sophistication of classic Champagne while showcasing the Chile's distinctive minerality. What to pair? Anything, everything, nothing (enjoy it alone)!

• 6 bottles (750cc) of wine: 3 of each wine*

Matias Riccitelli Tinto de la Casa 2019: This rich, modern Malbec is like the Meryl Streep of wines—elegant, versatile, and captivating. Its deep purple color catches the eye, the floral and spicy aromas draw you in. Made from grapes grown in Mendoza's Las Compuertas and Gualtallary regions (high altitude + minerality), it offers a perfect balance of freshness, soft tannins, and subtle oak. It is fun yet doesn't take itself too seriously, making it a great candidate for any holiday occasion (and wine lover). 

Gryphus Blend 2019: With nearly 6 years of evolution, this lush vino tinto is full of juiciness and balance. Made from a limited production of 4,400 bottles, this is not your typical Chilean red blend. Its uniqueness stems from the 50% Carmenere base with the unusual, and delicious, addition of 25% Petit Verdot and 25% Petite Syrah to add fruitiness, depth, and spiciness. With notes of dark fruits and berries, chocolate, vanilla, and smooth, silky tannins bound together by a bright acidity, it’s the perfect partner for pizza, pastas, soups, duck confit, and stews in the winter.

Both of these wines hit the holy wine trifecta of high acid, low alcohol and are driven by minerality (complexity) in addition to being sustainably grown by humans we know with minimal use of sulfites.

Trapi Handmade Sauvignon Blanc 2022: Born in the cold, southern vineyards of the Chilean lake district, this zippy white wine is made from regenerative farming practices and organic grapes and will break with most of the South American Sauvignon Blancs you have tried. More Loire-esque than New Zealand in style, it's full of citrus and mineral notes and veers lean and clean in your mouth. It's so mouthwatering the bottle will disappear quickly...

Gryphus Blend 2019: With nearly 5 years of evolution already, this lush vino tinto is full of elegance and balance. Made from a limited production of 4,400 bottles, this is not your typical Chilean Cabernet blend. It’s 50% Carmenere with the unusual, and delicious, addition of 25% Petit Verdot and 25% Petite Syrah to add fruitiness, depth, and spiciness. With notes of dark fruits and berries, chocolate, vanilla, and smooth, silky tannins bound together by a bright acidity, it’s the perfect partner for Mom to enjoy on your her own.

Trapi Handmade Chardonnay 2022: Born in the cold, southern vineyards of the Chilean lake district, this Chardonnay has more in common with Burgundy than its South America peers, partially because of Trapi’s dedication to working with the ‘golden’ lies, assuring a creamy texture without having to overoak.  Notes of sweet lemon curd come together with a hint of pineapple and toasty cookies from neutral ok.  While it pairs beautifully with savory dishes (nearly all seafood and poultry), why not try this with white chocolate or salted caramel bonbons? We think it may blow your mind.

Trapi del Bueno Handmade Sauvignon Blanc 2022: This zippy Sav Blanc is blasting citrus like grapefruit, passion fruit, guava and has saline (dry) nature that makes it lip-smacking delicious. Wonderful with seafood, as an apertif, ceviche, or even chevre goat cheese.

Trapi del Bueno Handmade Pinot Noir 2019: This non-interventionist Pinot Noir is made from grapes grown in Chile's southern lake district (northern Patagonia region). Deep in flavor and full of minerality, flavors of fresh raspberries, cherries, wild strawberries pop  with spicy notes. Smooth-drinking, light in alcohol, and chic in the mouth, it veers towards Burgundy in style. We love its freshness and how all wine drinkers revel in this wine.

Trapi del Bueno Chardonnay 2020: Veering Chablis in style, this Chardonnay has no oakiness and is lighter than one may expect with apple and pear flavors.Easy to drink on its own, this wine is also great with roasted chicken, any fish dish, and buttered popcorn for movie night.
