After a bit of a hiatus im back on my bullshit.
New Jura goodness from a producer thats up and coming, and new outside of France and select Japanese markets.
Solid Savagnin, and one that will likely do well with some additional time.

Incredible bottle of young negoce gamay from Ganevat’s most recent fall release. With the estate wines becoming harder to track down I’ve started picking up far more of the negoce bottles, and while they can be hit or miss, when they hit they HIT.

Novecento Novanta Nove (999) from Nevio Scala. Cab Franc and Merlot from Veneto. Blueberries and... coriander seed? Tasty.

First Slovenian wine. Tannic. Dark fruit - blackberry and currants. Green pepper. Long finish. Simple, a nice table wine.

Villa Picta St. Bart
50% Marzemino, 50% Merlot. A still “Lambrusco”. Rich, ripe fruit. Cherry, strawberry, pomegranate, chocolate, a slight vegetal note on the finish. A nice Sunday dinner wine.

Heading to Vienna/Budapest & Buenos Aires soon. Any wine bars, stores, and/or producers to visit/look out for in/around those areas?

Nathan might be able to help with Buenos Aires.

I personally can't help with Vienna/Budapest but I can reach out to my wine people if no one here has any info.

I didn't include any wine recs on the list I sent but Medrano Social Club is a good store. Truth be told I'm not a huge Argentina wine fan, it's all more full-bodied than I usually go for. So much Malbec.

If you're trying to bring back bottles of something, the real move is that liter bottles of campari are in grocery stores for roughly $7 each.
