Chad Stock dazzles again with a genuine orange Grüner Veltliner made with skin contact in amphora. Redolent with satsuma peel & electric kool-aid acidity, this wine is meant for adventurous food, fun people, and open minds. Named for Andrew Beckham, who builds large amphora or kvevri, and a fine winemaker in his own wright. Orange is the new orange!! — 10 years ago

This was a delight to drink on a warm Spring evening with crab cakes and roasted garlic & tomato bruschetta. A beautifully tinted Pinot noir rose. Thanks for sharing Sue & Stan Widger! — 9 years ago
Applegate Valley Tempranillo fermented on the skins of sauv blanc and gruner in order to retain color. Incredible stuff. A wholly different view of the grape. — 12 years ago
