🚗NEW DIRECTIONS🚗

What’s up winos,

BOO! I know I told you I was gonna be away this week, so this is coming to you from the past (cue spooky noises). Who knows where I am right now? All being well I should be on day six of my epic Mallorcan walk (yep you read that right, a 90 mile walk is my idea of a holiday. I’m such a glutton for punishment). Say a little prayer for me n my blisters, if you can spare one. Or chuck me a Compede, if you’re not the religious type. All being unwell I might have packed it in and be sitting by the pool with a cocktail right now. Isn’t the future crazy?!

Enough about me, more about you. Or things that will interest you. Such as a long overdue top-up of our very own Domaine Gross. We would have scheduled one sooner but frankly we didn’t realise how much you guys were gonna lose your heads over these, so we were scrambling to catch up. Such is supply and demand. Arriving on the pallet we’ve got a decent re-up of our beloved Tryo, which’ll be pouring BTG at dan’s for the foreseeable. We got through our first lot in literally three weeks, so if you want to pick up a couple of bottles for yourself before they’re gone, you better move quickly. Also back on the shelves are his delicious pair of cremants, serious fizzers at an unserious price, and his Sonate Pinot Gris skin contact which was absolutely flying out the door at dan’s last week. If you missed the memo the first time, we’ve still got some bits and pieces of our first Gross shipment, a selection of highly gastronomic skin contact vinos just waiting to be parked next to the gourmet dinner I know you’re gonna cook tonight. Don’t sleep on his single white wine, either - proper delicious expression of Alsatian Riesling full of honeyed fruit and petrol.

On a slightly different tack, the eagle eyed among you might have noticed we’re branching out into a highly selective range of hard liquor, because we’re always trying to improve ourselves. There’s always been a place in our hearts and on our shelves for the Macvins and Vin de Pailles of the world, but now we’ve gone the whole hog. Marc de Gewurz (an excellent use for it IMO), Calvados, Mezcal and even a very special oxy Grillo from Alessandro Viola. If u like your drinks STRONG, we’ve got u. 

Last up in our ever expanding empire - the hardcore OG fans among you will remember our halcyon cider drinkin’ days, and now we’re going back to our roots, courtesy of cideron (like vigneron, geddit?) extraordinaire Julien Fremont. Custodian of some seriously, seriously old trees, his ciders are off the charts, if the charts measure refreshment and deliciousness. And they do. Smash ‘em here.

That’s all I got, since I can’t actually predict the future and idk what’s landed in my absence. Plenty, probably. C u back in real life next week!

xoxo
