    The Pax and Two Shepherds tell me it’s a natty place.

    Both good, clean choices, but watch out. Welcome to funk town.

    I hope the new wine shop is successful & serves your neighborhood for years to come…

  3. The last pic is all available by the glass for $8-9 USD too.

  4. I haven’t had any of these bottles but I’ve had some Pinot from Fürst and a few other bottles and find them to be a good producer

  5. Drink those with the N. Good Texas wine, Noblemen

    the Bouland beaujolais is a nice bottle. i’d happily pay $40 for that from a local shop.
    I’ve had Furst pinots that I like, I’d love to try their riesling.

    good luck to the shop.

    Hild Elbling Sekt is a killer bottle of bubbles

    I just had a 2021 Le Berne and it was incredible. Good Tuscan wine. The barbareaco looks interesting. Enjoy!

    Im gonna go against the grain of this sub and rep the North American Press white they have. It’s a hybrid wine blend grown in Nevada that is pretty good an a unique experience. It’s a dry tropical fruity white that isn’t the serious wines that this sub likes, but something fun to have on weekdays or with friends.

    Two Shepherds wines are delicious – definitely natural but mostly clean natural. Not to mention the owners, Karen and William are absolutely delightful and wonderful people.

    The Pax Syrah I had at the winery recently was also fantastic

  11. That yves cuilleron Syrah is a damn good deal at 19, drinks like a northern Rhône

    Il Nero di Casanova Sangiovese is solid, especially at that price. I like their higher end endeavors but even their entry level is fine.

    La Onda is so darn good, you’re lucky to have access to that stuff. He just doesn’t make very much of it and it’s super expressive and well made. A tiny bit of earthiness but not “natty.” It’s a solid price too. Onda Brava is the same producer but down in Chile and equally well made

  14. I always enjoyed the MWC wines. Never had the PG but the Pinot Noir was always stellar for the price.

    all of these wines look so interesting, definitely saving these 🙂

  16. Are you in Wisconsin? Either way, American Wine Project slaps!

    Surprising no one has called out the LebNat from Mersel — very talented producers leading the natural wine movement out of Lebanon and definitely worthy of supporting

    I like the Tait Ball Buster . $23 good value

  19. Enjoy, a phenomenal place to learn what interests you!

    They geeky as hell, but I dig some of these wines big time. San salvestro, Yves Cuilleron, wares larmandier, pax Mahle, and La Spinetta are all very well regarded producers in their respective regions. The pricing is great too! But they have a steep hill to climb if they plan on longevity. This selection is for wine geeks or people who are very open to new experiences. The average consumer won’t recognize a single label and that could bring many challenges. I too, hope they are successful. I’d drink a bottle or two with these people.

    the broc badger label nero is one of my favorites from them. i’m in their club because it’s too good of a deal and always add these to my shipments.

    only one i recognize is the petite gimios bottle, priced the same as other spots i’ve seen it. real good stuff grown and made in a very interesting way.

  23. First photo, fourth bottle from the left – American Wine Project from Wisconsin is perhaps one of the most interesting wines pictured.

    Yes, there are some really great wines here (Le Petit Gimios Muscat, Boulanger Cote de Brouilly, Larmandier) but AWP is so cool and very under the radar. She works solely with American hybrids and makes some really interesting wine with a very unique approach.

    Rivals is 100% LaCrosse and drinks like Jura chard meets Loire chenin. Really cool and truly unique.

    La Colombera Timorasso 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

    I’ve been searching for that Pinot Meunier by Two Shepherds for a while!! It’s supposed to be incredible and very clean.

    La Storia is a great and steady go to that has good texture and robust body.

    The Le Haie Nardin is stunning, and we are aging the beautiful Salem Oregon Pinot for a few years right now 🙂
