| 1. | ‘Gradual’ Douro Doc 2022 (Douro, Portugal) Nice rich palate, not as rich as Amarone, and balanced puckering finish. Apparently the Douro Valley is where Port originates from. | Wine | love | Amy | |
| 2. | ‘Laguezzelle’ B. Taillandier, Minervois 2024 (Languedoc-Roussillon, France) Tasty, light red best served chilled. Perfectly balanced dryness. | Wine | love | Amy | |
| 3. | A Table!!! Rose, Mas del Perie (Cahors, France) Meaty rose made with skin contact with Malbec, Merlot, and Tannat. Slight acidity. | Wine | love | Amy | |
| 4. | Arenisca Los Pilones Tinto, Cantalapiedra Viticultores 2023 (Toro, Spain) Made with a clone of Tempranillo. Quite dry, dark fruit notes, lovely bouquet. Amy loves almost as much as Amarone. Stef just likes, not loves. | Wine | love | Amy | |
| 5. | Brana Ilori “les jonquilles” 2021 (Irouleguy, France) Apparently nice whites also come out of this this French Basque region! Will need to try another bottle to get tasting notes. | Wine | love | Amy | |
| 6. | Cantina Furtani ‘Maddie’ Rosso 2024 (Trentino-Alto Adige, Italy) 100% Schiava, I like it more than any Beaujolais I’ve ever had! Stef also loves. | Wine | love | Amy | |
| 7. | Cremant du Jura, Domaine Desire Petit (Jura, France) Very tasty bubbly. Too apple-y for Amy. | Wine | love | Stefan | |

| 10. | Extra Brut Vouvray, Domaine du Facteur (Vouvray, Loire) 100% Chenin Blanc bubbly made in Champagne style. Stef loves this bubbly; Amy thinks it tastes like cider. | Wine | love | ||
| 11. | Foradori Teroldego Red, Azienda Agricola Foradori 2024 (Trentino, Italy) Second time we’ve had this wine, this time from Lovat. First time, Paul at Eighth & Driggs recommended it, and we still like. Just tastes like a classic Italian red. | Wine | love | Amy | |
| 12. | Getariako Txakolina, Gañeta 2025 (País Vasco, Spain) One of the best whites we’ve had. Very tasty. Amy thinks it’s borderline apple-juicy but has enough minerality in the foreground that makes it nice. | Wine | love | Stefan | |
| 13. | J. Mourat Collection Rose 2025 (Loire, France) Full bodied classic crowd pleasing rose. Would have again. | Wine | love | Stefan | |
| 14. | Le Facteur Su’l’Velo, Domaine du Facteur (Vouvray, Loire) 100% Chenin Blanc made on limestone, so chalky. Fresh, and punchier in the front. Fabien Brutout said the limestone was sourced from a castle. | Wine | love | Amy | |
| 15. | Les Acacias, Mas del Perie (Cahors, France) 100% Malbec, young, spicy with dark fruit flavor. Fabien Jouves said his wines are like tea infusions- diffusion over time does the work. | Wine | love | Amy | |
| 16. | Little James’ Basket, Château de Saint Cosme (Languedoc, France) viognier blend | Wine | love | Stefan | |
| 17. | Maceration, Domaine du Facteur (Vouvray, Loire) Dry white; mix of Chenin Blanc and Sauv Blanc. Punchy in the back. | Wine | love | Amy | |
| 18. | Manzanilla ‘Deliciosa’, Valdespino (Andalusia, Spain)) Second time having it, fresh fortified wine needs to make an appearance at least a couple times a year. | Wine | love | Amy | |
| 19. | Morandina Amarone Della Valpolicella, Pra 2018 (Veneto, Italy) Curious to try this alongside the Speri to compare. | Wine | love | Amy | |
| 20. | Naked Orange, Heinrich 2024 (Burgenland, Austria) I don’t know if it’s because I had the Spanish bretty (Brettomyces) orange last week, and so I love this for being far more palatable. Natural skin contact white blend. Stef says there a touch of funk, but I think the light funk is what makes natural wines interesting, the light brandy quality to it. | Wine | love | Amy | |
| 21. | Petit Cochon Bronze, Rimbert 2025 (Languedoc-Rousillon, France) Classic rose with a lovely finish. | Wine | love | Amy | |
| 22. | Speri Vigneto Monte Sant'Urbano AMARONE DELLA VALPOLICELLA 2018 (Veneto, Italy) Wonderful Italian red!! Super tasty. | Wine | love | Stefan | |
| 23. | Tu Vins Plus Aux Soirées, Mas del Perie (Cahors, France) Light red that is ridiculously drinkable. Fabien Jouves said this is the one to drink as you cook, put in the food, and drink with the food. Delightful light table red. | Wine | love | Amy | |
| 24. | Turley Juvenile Zinfandel 2024 (Napa, California) Extremely drinkable napa zinfandel. Medium to full bodied but modest. Drinks closer to a cab without being overwhelming. Both Stefan & Amy enjoy. Recommended by Jamie at Lovat in fall of ‘26 and had with a nice pasta. | Wine | love | Stefan | |
| 25. | Txakolina Blanco, the Bodegas Aizpurua 2025 (Basque Country, Spain) Very tasty white, minerally, fruity | Wine | love | Stefan |
