Happy Easter

For Easter this year, we took on two themes. First was France from where we fill our box, and the second was Fresh, like the clear skies of spring. Plenty inside for a feast this Easter.

We split our whites from the South and west of Bordeaux, then finished up with two phenomenal Sauvignons from the Loire. Crisp and full of that mineral “slate” taste that makes them so distinct. Think of a Sancerre, then better. 😊 We also explore two blends on a base of Ugni Blanc, both light and playful. Get out the garden furniture and enjoy them over the weekend sun.

The reds offer a huge variety. From the very delicate Cabernet Franc from Saumur full of cherries and red current, to the BRUTAL, in your face reality of Thor’s mix of Negroamaro and Primitivo. Two extremes that sit firmly on either side of the fence. If you are feeling a bit less divisive, the Merlot from Bordeaux or blend from Maubet will be a perfect mid-week tranquilizer.

So if this Easter is about the eggs, holiday or the bunny, we got you covered for all the options.
