Pierre Delize Blanc de Blancs Brut
This lovely French sparkler has beautiful, soft bubbles and flavors of green apple and stone fruit. The wine is 100% Chardonnay from Burgundy and has the requisite biscuity, brioche finish. A mighty fine sparkling wine for the money.

Scarpetta Prosecco
We bring Prosecco out for any excuse to celebrate. It’s simpler than Champagne and infinitely better then most sparkling wines costing much more. There is “meh” Prosecco and there is beautifully dry and aromatic Prosecco, this is the latter.

Aval French Cider
There are few beverages more refreshing than dry,
hard cider. This version from Brittany is both crisp and delicate, with lively dry fruit and a lovely mineral driven finish. Feeling adventurous? Try a Breton Kir, a lovely drink combining French cider, creme de cassis and a dash of Calvados.

Les Pierres Grises 2024 Saint-Véran
White Burgundy is always a favorite at the Cafe, but with increasing prices in recent years it’s not something we typically pour by the glass. 100% old vine Chardonnay, the wine is sustainably farmed, using indigenous yeast and is
80% stainless steel and 20% barrel fermented. Flavors of crisp apple, green herbs and a hint of saline in the finish.

Chateau Graville-Lacoste 2024 Graves
Every new release is like welcoming back an old friend you haven’t seen in a few years to a dinner party, familiar and exciting. This
beautiful white Bordeaux is a blend of Sauvignon Blanc, Semillon and Muscadelle. It’s lively and full of tangy grapefruit and lime flavors with a wet stone finish.

Van Duzer 2023 Pinot Gris
This wine is redolent of juicy red apple and lime
peel with a baking spice finish. All stainless steel fermented, it’s crisp and mineral laden without being terse. A lovely pairing with almost any of our small plates.Van Duzer is a sustainable winery and contributes to many philanthropic causes making it another winery I love to support.

Mary Taylor 2023 Anjou Blanc Pascal Biotteau
Mary Taylor wines are on fire right now, so it seems like a perfect time to feature a selection
from her White Label series. She chooses these wines as fine examples of the region and terroir where
they are produced. This Anjou blanc is 100% Chenin Blanc with honeyed stone fruit flavors
followed by a zingy minerality. An absolutely perfect late Winter quaffer.

Château d’Estoublon 2024 Roseblood Rosé
A blend of 65% Grenache, 15% Syrah, 15% Cinsault, 5% Rolle (Vermentino), Roseblood is not a simple little quaffer, but rather a medium
bodied, complex wine with flavors of tart cherry, green herbs and floral notes.This is some delicious pink wine pleasure!

Two Mountain 2023 Cabernet Sauvignon
I love doing wine dinners and meeting winemakers and vineyard owners. It really makes me appreciate all the hard work that goes into bottle of wine from small artisan producers. Matthew Rawn winemaker and owner of Two Mountain visited us last May and I just fell in love with these sustainably produced Washington wines. The wine is a blend of 89% Cabernet Sauvignon, 6% Malbec and 5% Merlot. It definitely has a French sensibility with dark, blueberry and plum fruit followed by well integrated tannins. You are going to love this with the braised short rib!

Field Recordings 2022 Pinot Noir Edna Valley
We are excited to team up with Andrew Jones of Field Recordings. This Edna Valley Pinot Noir is a fantastic pairing with Winds Cafe dishes. It’s elegant but bold with black cherry fruit, spicy pepper and a hint of wood smoke in the
finish. We couldn’t be more excited and pleased with this wine.

Vidal-Fleury 2022 Côtes du Rhône
Vidal-Fleury is the Rhone’s oldest, continuous running winery, dating back to 1781.This extraordinary wine is
a blend of 65% Grenache, 20% Syrah, 10% Mourvedre and 5% Carignan. It’s made in and old school style with dark blackberry and black currant fruit followed by soft tannins and
a spicy, herbal finish. An extremely satisfying wine that pairs with almost everything on our menu, especially on these chilly Ohio evenings.

This wine is produced by 4th generation winemaker, Ernesto Catena. A life long student of Renaissance humanism, Catena’s
biodynamic winery is like no other in Argentina. He believes it is his mission to incorporate art into everything he does with wine. A follower of biodynamics, Ernesto designed his property to be in tune with the natural world.The Malbec is a fresh, lighter style with floral aromas and lush plummy fruit. A lovely quaffer that pairs beautifully with grilled dishes and lighter small plates.
