Holiday Gift Guide Part 1: Impressive 95+ Point Wines
Our Holiday Gift Guide has been very well received over the last several years. The premise is we try to replicate the wine media’s Top 10 or Top 100 wine lists (Wine Spectator, Wine Enthusiast, etc) with a collection of our most sought after, highest scoring wines.
We have some very limited quantities of wines that would qualify for this type of list available now and thought we would share it with you as the holidays approach. All the wines below are in stock and available to order.
The line has been drawn at a fairly difficult to achieve 95 points. Everything on this list scored at least 95 or above from a reputable media source.
We are obviously very proud of the wines our partners produce and thrilled to import such a broad range of exceptional products. This New World Wines list is just part one of two of our Holiday Gift Guide. There should be something in our guide to appeal to nearly any wine taste.
As always, click on any of the individual wines below to read more on our website or contact us directly if you have any questions – just hit reply. We love to talk about wine. Should this list not have anything of interest, look out for part two, Old World Wines, in a couple days!

James Halliday (Australian Wine Companion), September 2022
Its clarity matches its freshness; 10% whole bunches, 90% whole berry, 20 days in
Italian-made tulip-shapes concrete 4-tonne fermenters, maturated. 15 months in
old French puncheons. The highly fragrant blend of cherry and plum drives a long,
fine, elegant palate.

James Suckling, November 2023
What an exotic, perfumed yet elegant nose here full of thyme, local herbs, green papaya, ginger and green curry. Lemon grass and lime zest. So fresh and elegant on the palate with a chalky texture to the center-palate. Really transparent, subtle, quiet and long. A unique chardonnay from a cool and elegant vintage, but intense and idiosyncratic. Unique to the landscape.
