WINES
Manicor Vineyards, Kaltern/Caldaro, South Tyrol, Italy
For his services to the Empire, the Austrian Emperor raised Hieronymus Manicor to the nobility and endowed him with land on the shores of Lake Kaltern in the early 17th century. The oldest buildings on the estate date to 1608. In 1662, a granddaughter of Hieronymus married into the family of the Counts Enzenberg; by the 17th century the Enzenberg family was already involved in winemaking. After generations in the Manicor family, in 1978 the Manicor estate finally passed to the Counts Enzenberg.
In 1991 Count Michael Goëss-Enzenberg took over Manincor from his uncle. At that time the estate supplied grapes to the wine-growers’ cooperatives in Caldaro and Terlano. Count Michael improved the quality of the vineyards through a policy of strictly limited yields and near-natural husbandry. In 1996 the first Manincor wines were produced in the estate’s own cellar. The vineyard, which is on the Alto Adige Wine Road, is run using sustainable and biodynamic processes and produced its first biodynamic vintage in 2006.
Reserva della Contessa 2021
Varietal: 51% Pinot Blanc, 31% Chardonnay, 18% Sauvignon Blanc, Alc. 13.5%
Reserva della Contessa is biodynamic and is fermented in oak barrels with yeast naturally occurring in the vineyard. The wine is then matured on lees for nine months. It pours yellow with flashes of green. Delicate aromas of apple, apricot, and a hint of sage are found in the nose. It is elegant and mellow on the palate, and finishes with refreshing acidity. Serve this wine lightly chilled but not cold.
Pairs well with roasted salmon, chicken, or pork. $25.99
Der Keil 2021
Varietal: Old-vine Vernatsch Alc. 12.5%
Der Keil is made from grapes grown at 250 meters above sea level on south-facing slopes overlooking Lake Kaltern, one of the warmest sites in the South Tyrol; the old vines are trained onto pergolas and grown in sandy clay soil. The grapes are crushed and fermented in open wooden vats with skin contact for one week. It spends five months on lees in oak barrels. Bright ruby in the glass, der Keil has aromas of cherry and toasted almonds on the nose. It is juicy on the palate with an elegant finish. Serve slightly chilled (53° to 57° F).
Pairs well with dishes based on tomatoes and garlic, fried fish, chicken. $25.99
Reserva del Conte 2019
Varietal: 43% Merlot, 35% Lagrein, 22% Cabernet Alc. 13%

The wine is then transferred to oak barrels, where it ferments for 12 months. The wine has a bright ruby color and a nose full of berry fruit and spice. On the palate, flavors of dark chocolate, licorice, black and white pepper, and plums are given structure by silky tannins.
Pairs well with Mediterranean foods, grilled red meat, lamb. $27.99

Domaine Brusset is located in the heart of the southern Côtes-du-Rhône valley vineyards, at Cairanne.

FINE WINE TASTING @ SAVOUR WITH CASEY G. OF IDEAL WINES
Ideal is an importer and distributor of fine wine and spirits based in Medford, Massachusetts. The company’s roots go back to 1905, when Samuel Bender and two partners founded a retail wine and provisions store in Boston, which evolved in the years after WW II into one of the city’s premiere fine wine shops. It was in the late 1970s that Larry Bender, the third generation of his family in the business, decided to strike out on his own, separating the importing business from his father’s retail operation. His goal was to import small high-quality wineries directly to the Massachusetts market, wines that had previously only come through national importers, if they were imported at all. Most of the wines at that time were French, but the company soon expanded its Italian selections, and has since rounded out the book with some American wineries as well as wines from other countries. Ideal brings us wine with a strong sense of place, made with minimal intervention, at a great price.

WINES
Verget Mâcon-Pierreclos Chardonnay 2020, Maconnais, France
Varietal:Chardonnay Alc.13%
Often referred to as “the mad Belgian,” Jean-Marie Guffens is the legendary winemaker from the Mâconnais who receives much critical praise for producing “poor man’s white Burgundy,” worthy of the finest wines of the Côte d´Or.The adventure started in 1976 when Jean-Marie Guffens and his wife, Maine Heynen, arrived in Burgundy. After learning French, Jean-Marie undertook a viticultural course at the local Davayé school. In 1979, Jean-Marie and Maine purchased their first few plots of vines that no one wanted on the steep hills of Pierreclos, a small village west of Mâcon. In 1990 Jean-Marie Guffens started a very progressive micro-négociant business, Maison Verget. Verget buys its grapes from passionate winegrowers, selected for their seriousness and their work that respects the vines and the terroir. They have become, over time, valuable partners and Verget determines with them the management of the vines and their yield.
The wines of Maison Verget have a clear acidity, with a mineral character, coupled with ripe fruit. They unite tension, depth, texture, and amplitude. It is generally acknowledged that Jean-Marie Guffens shapes some of the greatest whites of Burgundy. Mâcon-Pierreclos is produced from young Chavignevines, and is fermented on the lees for six months in small stainless-steel casks, producing a seductive, indulgent wine with a certain richness and a pleasant minerality. The nose is elegant, with white fruit and exotic fruit aromas and slight spicy notes. The palate reveals great minerality, power and richness, with superb length.
Pairs well with duck, shellfish and lobster, mushrooms, and Parmesan, cheddar gruyere. $25.99
Les Equilibristes Hirsute 2020, Bergerac, France
Varietals: 70% Semillon, 20% Sauvignon Blanc, 10% Chenin Blanc Alc. 13.5%
Les Equilibristes is a collective of winegrowers who work together to create new blends of grape, focused on neglected varietals. It is a collaborative process, from choosing the site to final bottling. Their ground rules are to use grapes from great terroir, practice organic methods, with minimal intervention in the cellar, and minimal use of sulfur. Hirsute is organic and biodynamic. It is golden in color and has hints of citrus and herbs on the nose. On the palate notes of orange and melon mingle with a zesty minerality.
Pairs well with risotto, octopus, and other seafood. $18.99
Becker Riesling, Alsace, France
Varietal: RieslingAlc.12.5%
The history of Vins Becker traces back to 1610 when Jean Becker became the owner. Today, Jean-François manages the vineyards while his sister manages the commercial part of the winery. In total, the vineyard covers an area of 32 hectares. They grow Riesling, Pinot Gris, Muscat, Sylvaner, Pinot Blanc, Pinot Noir, and Gewurztraminer. The team has been using organic farming techniques in the vineyard and the winery since 1999. The soil of Vins Becker vineyards have a unique geology of bedrock with a small amount of limestone. During the winemaking process, only the free run juice is used to produce the wines. They prefer the use of natural yeasts and limit the filtration to the minimum. The wines are crisp and dry, with a nice body and revealing the characteristics of the terroir. Vins Becker’s Riesling has a fresh minerality and aromas of apricot, pineapple, and spices.
Pairs well with fish, shellfish, seafood, white meats, and sauerkraut. $17.99
Domaine Nudant Ladoix Rouge, Burgundy, France
Varietal: Pinot Noir Alc. 13.5%
The Nudant winery can look back on more than 200 years of history and has been managed by the Nudant family for many generations. Guillaume Nudant is now the fourth generation to follow his family’s tradition of producing award-winning wines in the rolling countryside of Ladoix-Serrigny and Corton. From the beginning, very strict rules were applied in the selection of the grapes. This method is still used today. The winery covers an area of 16 hectares in the Côte de Beaune and the Côte de Nuits. It houses 20 appellations. This includes wines such as Village, 1er Cru, and Grand Cru. The approximately 40-year-old Pinot Noir vines for Ladoix Rouge grow at an altitude of 310meters with a southeast orientation. About 10,000 bottles per year are produced from a total of only 2.3 hectares of vineyards on clay limestone soil. In the glass the wine shows a deep red color. The nose shows intense and varied aromas of red fruits and spices. On the palate, there are notes of dark strawberries, cherry compote and pickled morello cherries as well as hints of spices, elderberry, and mocha. Soft tannins are part of a long finish.
Pairs well with mushroom dishes, beef stew, grilled salmon. $37.99

Languedoc, France

Famille Perrin Reserve Côtes du Rhône Blanc, France
Varietals: Grenache blanc, Marsanne, Roussanne, ViognierAlc.11.5%
Famille Perrin is a leading organic wine producer in the southern Rhone Valley, where they have been making wine for five generations. They are committed to manual methods and to the belief that organic viticulture is the only way to express the true essence of the terroir. This Côtes du Rhône Blanc pours a pale yellow with hints of delicate green. It has strong floral and mineral aromas on the nose leading to lemon, bergamot, and hawthorn on the palate and ending with a long finish.
Pairs well with Mediterranean food, grilled fish, bouillabaisse. $14.99
Hedges CMS Chardonnay, Yakima Valley, Washington
Varietal: ChardonnayAlc.12%
In 1989, Tom and Anne-Marie Hedges bought 50 acres on Red Mountain in the Yakima Valley and planted 40 acres of Bordeaux grape varieties, and over the years, wine production has become a family affair: their daughter, Sarah Hedges-Goedhart, is the head winemaker and their son, Christopher Hedges, is the general manager. In 2008 they converted to biodynamic farming, and in 2015 they released the first biodynamic Cabernet Sauvignon in Washington. The CMS Chardonnay pours a light golden color. On the nose, there is a hint of blood orange and tart caramel apple, mixed with cinnamon and buttered toast. There is a fresh mineral component to this wine. A tart beginning leads into a full and creamy mid-palate. There is a bit of butter, some fresh citrus and apple flavors, and a touch of spice on the finish with just a hint of that blood orange.
Pairs well with shellfish, lobster, and risotto. $14.99
Colene Clemens Dopp Creek Pinot Noir 2020, Newberg, Oregon
Varietals: Pinot NoirAlc.14%
Colene Clemens was founded in 2005 by Joe and Victoria Stark
with the purpose of making exceptional pinot noir, and they
named the property in honor of Victoria’s mother. Wine production began in 2008. Spanning 122 acres where the Chehalem Mountains converge with Ribbon Ridge, the estate contains both sedimentary soils
and volcanic soils. Elevation climbs from 350 to 650 feet, where the winery perches with sweeping views of the coast range and valley; 62 acres are planted to pinot noir and chardonnay. The vineyard is
completely dry farmed, and sustainable and organic processes are used whenever possible. The 2020 Dopp Creek opens with delicate aromas of rich purple fruit and thyme flowers. This approachable pinot noir has a juicy and round palate brimming with sweet cranberry and cherry, intermingled with wisps of cardamom and savory herbs. It is well balanced and a delight to sip. This wine is best consumed within the next three to four years.
Pairs well with salmon, roast chicken, pasta dishes $32.99
San Polo 2016 Brunello di Montalcino, Italy
Varietal: Sangiovese Alc. 14%
Brunello is a red wine of great power and elegance, the ultimate expression of Sangiovese. In Montalcino it is characterized by its reddish-brown color and intense aromas and flavors. San Polo, the Allegrini estate in Montalcino, makes their Brunello guided by respect for the land and sustainability. This Brunello pours an intense ruby red color with garnet reflections. The nose expresses the typical aromas of violet and small red fruits. There are hints of underbrush, aromatic wood, vanilla, and jam, followed by subtle notes of intense and persistent coffee. It is a warm wine in the mouth, with a dense and full-bodied texture. The finish is long, with well-defined tannins. Brunello di San Polo withstands long aging and improves with time in the bottle with earthy, savory aromas emerging, along with flavors of black currant and raspberry and notes of earth, iron and juniper. Best from 2025 through 2045.
Pairs well with rich risottos, roast lamb, steak with mushroom sauce. $64.99
Château Les Trois Croix 2016 Bordeaux, Fronsac, France
Varietals: Merlot, Cabernet Franc Alc.14.5%
Chateau Les Trois Croix dates back to at least 1712 when the large stone tower was carved and inscribed Trois Croix, which is translated to three crosses. However, we started paying attention to the property after Patrick Leon purchased the vineyard in 1995. Prior to taking over Les Trois Croix in 1995, Patrick Leon was the winemaker for Chateau Mouton Rothschild in Pauillac. Sadly, Patrick Leon passed away in 2018. Today, the property is managed by his son, Bertrand Leon. The 20-hectare Right Bank vineyard of Chateau Les Trois Croix is planted with 80% Merlot and 20% Cabernet Franc. The terroir is limestone and clay soils. The vineyard is well placed at the peak of the Fronsac appellation with an elevation of 87 meters at its high point. This wine pours
a deep brilliant red color. The fruity nose has hints of black currant and blackberry. Medium to full-bodied, it fills the palate with bright, precise black fruit and savory layers, framed by grainy tannins and finishing with a refreshing lift.
Pairs well with barbecued chicken, pork, duck, $34.99
Famille Brunier Le Pigeoulet 2019, Rhône France
Varietals: 80% Grenache, 10% Syrah, 5% Carignan, 5% Cinsault Alc. 14%
Brothers Frédéric and Daniel are the fourth generation of their family to farm the land of Châteauneuf-du-Pape. They have worked hard to solidify the legacy left by their father, Henri, and their great-grandfather, Hippolyte. Their Pigeoulet is exuberant and approachable. At table, it is versatile and generous, with abundant aromas of blackberries, herbs, and licorice that can complement a wide range of foods. The structure is sturdy with density and freshness, herbs, licorice and blackberries. Oak tannins show through, since 50% of the wine is aged in oak foudres for 18 months.
Pairs well with braised beef, pork, and cassoulet. $21.99
While you’re in the store, take a look at some of the new beers we have: Maine Beer’s flagship IPA, Lunch; another Maine Beer favorite, Peeper, a smooth pale ale with hints of citrus and some malt sweetness; and one of the best Belgian-style white beers this side of Belgium, Allagash White — made with coriander and curaçao orange peel, it’s lovely on a hot summer day.

WINES
La Calcinara Clochard, Marche,Italy
Varietal: 90%Verdicchio, 10% ChardonnayAlc.13%
Located in the rolling hills of Ancona in the Marche, on the eastern coast of Italy, La Calcinara is headed up by the Berluti siblings, Paolo and Eleonora. Their energy, enthusiasm, and love of wine is infectious. Their 12 hectares of vines and olive groves are farmed organically, and they make their wine with minimal intervention, using only very low additions of SO2 at bottling. This wine is named “Clochard,” which means vagrant in French, because it is made with Verdicchio vines that lie outside the Verdicchio Castelli DOC boundary. On the nose, Clochard has notes of lime zest, spring hawthorn and apple blossom, with a touch of cardamom. The palate is zippy, with flavors of lime juice, a gentle bitter and creamy almond note, and briny freshness, finishing with a long, yellow-pepper accented tang.
Pairs well with anchovies, shellfish, and fish dishes. $21.99
Troupis Holy Mania, Mantineia, Greece
Varietal: Moscofilero Alc.13.5%
The Troupis family has a long history of work in agronomy dating back to the ’70s where vines, fruit bearing trees and flowers have been grown and sold from their nursery in Mantineia. Over time, their efforts in the cultivation of vines grew into the desire to share their passion with others. Troupis Winery is located in the heart of Mantineia in the Peloponnese at an altitude of 700 meters in the region of Fteri. Tasos Troupis, supported by his children, has created a small-capacity production and wine-making family business; they produce and bottle wine exclusively from their estate vineyards, which total approximately 16 acres.
On the nose, Troupis’ crisp Moscofilero displays the slight perfumes of the surrounding Arcadian underbrush and bramble, along with jasmine and rose. On the palate, citrus fruit combines with violets, spices and the intense acidity with which Moscofilero has become synonymous. The wine has a long, complex mineral finish.
Pairs well with cucumber salads, chicken dishes, Greek fish soup. $21.99

The brothers Andreas and Steffen took over responsibility for the winery from their parents in 2008. In 2015, the winery was included in the VDP (Association of German Prädikat Wineries) and was awarded 4 grapes in the Gault-Millau Wine Guide in 2017.The Riesling pours crystal clear, with aromas of grapefruit, apple, and peach. On the palate, it is full, with hints of citrus, apple and peach, ripe acidity, and minerality on the dry finish.

Pra Morandina Valpolicella 2020, Veneto, Italy
Varietal: Corvina Alc. 12.5%
Graziano Pra followed his father and grandfather into the wine business, studying oenology, and taking over the family winery in Soave in the early 1980s. After searching for the right site, Graziano began the new millennium by fulfilling his long-held ambition and purchasing a 13-hectare vineyard near Mezzane in eastern Valpolicella. He farms the land organically, using no chemical treatments. During September and October, the grapes are harvested, de-stemmed and pressed, and left to macerate and ferment for 15 days in vertical vats. The wine undergoes malolactic fermentation in stainless steel followed by 3 to 6 months’ maturation in Allier oak casks. This is a vibrant, fragrant Valpolicella with intensity yet delicacy from the low yields of the Morandina vineyards. Bright red berry aromas with notes of wild thyme lead to a fresh, sappy wine with layers of raspberry leaf, licorice and cherry. It has a juicy, fresh yet silky mouthfeel and a balancing acidity that combine for a long finish.
Pairs well with grilled vegetables, seafood stew, risotto, roasted chicken. $24.99
Castello di Potentino Sacromontino 2021, Tuscany, Italy
Varietal: Sangiovese Alc. 14%
Run by the Greene family, who are British transplants to Italy, as an old-fashioned Residenzad’Epoca, the Castello di Potentino warmly welcomes visitors all year round. The Castle is also a fully functioning farm. They make their own award-winning wines and olive oil and love to forage for local ingredients in the fields around the castle. Their Sacromontino is medium garnet in color, and shows aromas of red cherries, tomato leaf, espresso, and oregano on the nose. The palate is medium bodied with flavors of cherry, blueberry, and black tea spices. The wine has fine-grained tannins and marked acidity, and the finish is dry and earthy.
Pairs well with pizza, pasta, and Italian beef stew. This is is a great buy – a full liter for only $19.99!
While you’re in the store, take a look at some of the new beers we have: Maine Beer’s flagship IPA, Lunch; another Maine Beer favorite, Peeper, a smooth pale ale with hints of citrus and some malt sweetness; and one of the best Belgian-style white beers this side of Belgium, Allagash White — made with coriander and curaçao orange peel, it’s lovely on a hot summer day.
