Haaaaaayyyyyyyy, Txakolina!

I've heard it called "the hottest thing in the United States right now": perhaps, but it's darn delicious. Rose of Txakoli (pronounced Cha Ko Lee). A lightly effervescent rose this low alcohol refresher is a very special, very limited find. Made of 50% Hondarribi Beltz (a clone of Cabernet Franc) and 50% Hondarribi Zuri (the grape of the white Txakoli), this wine is from the Txakolina zone of Spain's Basque region and has super fresh floral aromas. It is truly a unique wine and we'll carry it as long as we can stock it. Chicago only got about 20 cases and once the word is out, it'll be gone in a flash for sure! Get one whilst you can.

Meet the Winemaker Event

Meet McKinley Springs Winery Owners/Winemakers Doug & Sandy Rowell at our Logan Square shop on Wednesday, May 6th (6p-8p) at a free tasting event. McKinley Springs is an estate winery in the Horse Heaven Hills AVA in Washington state. HHH is one of the newest WA AVA's and one of its most promising! Vines here are some of the oldest planted in the state and vine age adds to the depth & complexity of these wonderful wines. We'll be pouring a Chenin Blanc, Late-Harvest Chenin Blanc, Syrah & Viognier.
