Emrich Schoenleber 2020 Riesling Trocken
$55.99Bright and crystalline, this dry Nahe Riesling opens with citrus blossom, lime zest and ripe stone fruit, underpinned by a subtle smoky, flinty minerality. The palate is bone-dry and precise, driven by zesty acidity, saline freshness and a fine lees-derived texture that adds depth without weight. Long, clean and focused on the finish, it’s a beautifully balanced, food-friendly Riesling with both immediate appeal and the structure to age.
Champalou Brut Vouvray N/V
$55.99A finely tuned Loire sparkling Chenin Blanc showing bright aromas of green apple, pear, citrus zest, and white flowers layered with subtle brioche and almond notes. The palate is crisp and elegant, with vibrant acidity, a delicate mousse, and pure orchard fruit framed by a gently creamy, mineral-tinged texture. Refined and refreshing on the finish, with lingering lemon, chalky lift, and a clean, savoury edge that makes it both aperitif-ready and versatile at the table.
