Summertime officially arrives this month and this pack will have you ready for sunny days along with the chilly ones that June usually brings. As the temperatures rise, the wines we crave are a bit lighter and juicier than in previous packs. Quench your thirst, and your grilled food cravings this month with this diverse pack.
Our 6 pack includes:
NV Domaine Collin, 'Cuvée Tradition' Crémant de Limoux - Languedoc-Roussillon, France Impressions: Philippe Collin is a Champagne native who brought his family’s traditional expertise to the high-altitude, limestone-rich terroirs of Limoux. The nose opens with expressive aromas of crisp green apple, fresh pear, and subtle notes of wet stone. On the palate, a lively acidity and fine, creamy mousse are balanced by a delicate touch of toasted brioche from extended lees aging.
2024 Muralhas de Monção Branco - Vinho Verde, Portugal Impressions: This crisp white wine opens with vibrant aromas of ripe peach, apricot, and bright citrus fruit. On the palate, it balances a soft, smooth texture with a lively, mouthwatering acidity and a clean, refreshing finish. It perfectly showcases why Vinho Verde is so widely popular: its effortless freshness, light profile, and incredible food-friendly versatility make it the ultimate easy-drinking wine for any occasion.
2024 Bisci, Verdicchio di Matelica - Marche, Italy Impressions: Bright and intensely aromatic, this Verdicchio opens with vibrant aromas of crushed green apple, citrus zest, and wild mountain herbs.

It finishes exceptionally clean and long, leaving a classic, savory hint of bitter almond.
2025 Limited Addition, 'Rosé Crush' - Willamette Valley, Oregon Impressions: Imagine a sun-drenched picnic where wild strawberries dance with juicy watermelon slices tossed in fresh mint.

2024 Trout Lily Ranch, 'Little House Cuvée' Pinot Noir - Willamette Valley, Oregon Impressions: The nose opens with bright Bing cherry, wild red raspberries, and subtle hints of damp forest floor.

The finish is remarkably clean and aromatic, balanced by the vibrant refreshing acidity. A crowd pleasing, light bodied, local Pinot that's perfect for summertime gatherings.
2017 Château Valentin, Haut Medoc - Bordeaux, France Impressions: This is classic bistro wine with a vibrant profile of crunchy red berries and dark plum accented by earthy black pepper notes.
