Today we would like to highlight some spectacular bottles of Saint Julien that we have in stock or arriving in our warehouse shortly. Saint Julien is the smallest of the major Bordeaux appellations in the Medoc, and nearly 95% of the vineyards in this beautiful commune are classified growths. There are Saint Julien estates that can majestically pair concentration with elegance and purity like the wines found at Chateau Ducru-Beaucaillou. Some chateaux remain traditional in their winemaking, while others lean to a more modern approach, like St. Pierre. There are early drinking wines like Gloria and wines that demand decades in the cellar for example, Leoville Las Cases. Highlights include the bottles of 2005 Gruaud Larose, 2017 Leoville Las Cases, the 2000 Ducru-Beaucaillou and the 2016 Leoville Barton. Take some time to peruse and add some of these superb wines to your collection. Happy Hunting!

Flickinger Wines has a remarkable selection in-stock of superstar Napa producer Schrader Cellars. Since the first vintage in the early 2000's, these wines quickly became a source for some of the Napa Valley's greatest wines. Focusing on Cabernet Sauvignon, Schrader makes numerous cuvées from the great Beckstoffer Vineyards - To-Kalon, George III, Dr. Crane and Las Piedras. Productions levels are quite small, with total production usually less than 1,800 cases. The wines are always big, forward and lush, and generally will drink well early (and age well for many years in top vintages). Flickinger Wines has deep verticals from across the Schrader range, dating back to the 2011s up through the current 2018s. Take advantage of this offer and add these Napa greats to your cellar today - cheers!

Today we are pleased to offer a large selection from Donelan Family Vineyards, featuring verticals of several of their finest Syrah, Pinot and Chardonnay offerings. It is not possible to talk about Donelan Family without mentioning owner Joe Donelan’s partnership with Pax Mahle at Pax vineyards in the early 2000s; Joe was the finance behind the Pax operation, and after their separation in 2008 Joe kept the vineyard name for a few years before giving it up and forming his own eponymous label. The style of the wines has undergone a shift from ripe, full-throttle and immensely powerful in the early days to a much more balanced, regal style these days; this change was a gradual one before the spilt, and since Pax went his own way Donelan has continued with his policy of hiring young winemakers (today David Milner is at the helm) to continue to seek balance and ageability in his bottlings. Today we have selection of Pinot Noir, Syrah, Chardonnay, Viognier and Roussanne, each produced with site-definition in mind – along with the goal of producing “A+++ wines” (as Donelan doesn’t hesitate to call them). Some of the names you will recognize from the early Pax days, such as Cuvée Keltie and Obsidian Vyd, while others are new since the reinvention of the brand (Tripps Block, Two Brothers – named after Donelan’s sons) – but all are well worth seeking out for their purity, nuance and sheer drinkability. If you are familiar with these wines already then please take this opportunity to backfill your collection, and if you are not then we are delighted to introduce you to critically acclaimed wines that will fast become one of your favorites!
