Since we named last month's Sipper Pack - April Showers - you guessed it...this month we present the May Flowers Sipper Pack. We spend a lot of time in our backyards this time of year and we assembled our pack with this in mind. From crisp, mineral whites and sparkling rosés for warm days, to reds that go with the first grill marks of the season or more rainy days, there is something here for whatever May throws our way. 

Our 6 pack includes:

2023 Kir-Yanni, 'Akiakes' Xinomavro Sparkling Rosé - Macedonia, Greece Impressions: Xinomavro's versatility is on full display here as it's rare to come across either a sparkling, or rosé style from Greece's most important red grape. You are greeted with notes of strawberries, rhubarb, rose petal, and a hint of dried herbs. The palate displays a fresh acidity that introduces gentle compact bubbles that form a frothy mousse. The finish is dry, crisp and fruity, makes for a wonderful aperitif.

2022 La Valle Del Sole, Passerina - Marche, Italy Impressions: Italy has a wealth of native varieties, this Passerina is a hidden gem. Notes of lemon zest, green apple skin, white flowers and sea shells greet you from the glass. The palate is lively with a lean, juicy texture that leads towards a dry, refreshing finish with a touch of salinity. Dangerously easy to drink.

2021 Dveri Pax, Furmint - Podravska, Slovenia Impressions: We're convinced Furmint is one of the great wine grapes of the world as it transmits terroir, like it does here, so effortlessly. Aromas of stone fruits, almond blossoms, chalk and flint evolve from the glass. The palate is mineral-driven with lean profile and crisp, slightly floral and savory finish.

2023 Domaine Rochette, 'Reggie' VDF - Beaujolais, France Impressions: A wink to the cru Beaujolais region of Regnié, 'Reggie' is a fine example of growing category here at the shop: chillable reds. Highly aromatic with notes of strawberries, raspberries, maitakes and dried rose petals. The palate is silky/juicy with a light body that easily sways towards a dry, fruity and floral finish.

2023 Josep-Maria Vendrell, 'Miloca' Carinyena Monsant - Catalonia, Spain
Impressions: It's barbecue season, so here is the perfect wine to pair. Highly aromatic notes of blackberries, black raspberries, violets and wild herbs leap from the glass. The palate is deceptively rich, but with a silky mouthfeel that is gently swayed towards a dry fruity and herbal finish. Fans of Southern Rhône wines will greatly appreciate this.

2018 Hacienda Lopez de Haro, Rioja Reserva - Rioja, Spain Impressions: For your grilled red meat needs comes this well aged gem that opens with notes of red plums, cassis, iron, and baking spices. A lively acidity introduces a smooth texture that descends towards light, velvety tannic touch. The finish is spicy with great length.
