100% Garnacha. Certified organic. In 1998, Rosalie Molina and her husband Manolo Garrote had a vision to revitalize winemaking in their home region of La Mancha. They envisioned a return to the basics of organic grape growing and natural wine making. This Grenache highlights the fullbodied yet elegant style of the estate. Dark fruits of plum and blackberry intermingle with hints of earth and sweet spices from aging in French oak. Bottled without fining, filtration, or sulfur.

Aríz, Pedro Ximénez, and Palomino Fino. Pálido translates to “pale” and is the name for the Fino-style wine, which is fermented with native yeasts in vat, transferred to old amphora and then to a solera where the wine spends an average of 5 years of aging under flor. It is bottled en rama, meaning without harsh filtration or stabilization. This is a fresh, yeasty, salty, wine. Not technically a sherry, as it's produced north of Jerez in the Sierra Morena mountains of Andalucia.
$13.00
100% Palomino Fino. The wine is fermented naturally in very old oak barrels. They remain in this "sobretabla" for 1 year fermenting to about 12% alcohol and forming the flor. The wine is then removed from the lees and fortified to 15% and introduced to the first "criadera" or level of the Inocente solera. The wine undergoes biological aging under the veil of flor for over 10 years. There are 10 criaderas + the Solera whereas most Finos on the market only have 3 years aging.

The Aperitivo Cappelletti, endearingly known to locals as just Specialino, may be the oldest style of the classic red bitter still in production. Unlike its larger commercial rivals, Cappelletti is less sweet and has a wonderful drying finish. Additionally, it still uses natural carmine color for a crimson red and retains a vinous texture from its wine base. It offers a vibrant and flavorful profile, complemented by bitter undertones on a traditional wine base. This yields a Negroni or Spritz that is dry and refreshing in the finish. It is made just outside of Trento in Alto Adige by the Cappelletti family, who also produce a number of other exceptional aperitivi and amari.
$20.00

375mL This aromatized wine is cheekily called “Americano” due to the fact that’s it’s made with a bitter profile (“amaricato”) as well as nod to Americans’ propensity for drinking vermouth with simple ice and soda. A carefully calibrated blend of herbs and botanicals, enjoy with ice and a citrus twist, or in cocktails. Piedmont, Italy
$14.00
Tempranillo, Viura, Malvasia. From 10 different micro plots within 10ha of certified organic estate vineyards in the town of Lanciego (Rioja Alavesa). Field blend of red and white grapes on calcareous clay soils with high iron content. Hand harvested, carbonic maceration in open concrete tanks begins (which is not a fad here it's actually native to this region) and the wine ferments in the tank with spontaneous yeast for 7-9 days before pressing. Aging continues in concrete tanks for a minimum of 3 months before being bottled slightly clarified (with pea powder!), unfiltered, with only low SO2 at bottling.
$16.00

The sweet, pale ‘Blanc’ variety of vermouth was first created and made famous by Dolin in Chambéry long before Italian producers replicated the style as ‘Bianco’. The Blanc is traditionally served with a sliced strawberry, a splash of soda and a twist. Dolin Blanc’s elegance and slight vanilla edge marry beautifully in the “new classic” Blond Negroni.
