This week Orazio Campoli, our Vinum Italicum Magister, introduced us to a beautiful array of very seasonally relevant wines. All of our buyers do such a great job at putting together these lineups for us week after week, often with little themes or goals in mind. This lineup had a lot of wines that have been in our Italian Wine Club, which means that for any Wine Club member, you get a discount on them. These are all reasonably priced wines, and each one that I've featured for you here overdelivers when it comes to a price/quality ratio. There's just so many wines that we carry, and we keep bringing in new products every single day, so it's easy for some of these to get lost—but they're just exceptional and deserve your attention.

Stretching along France’s sun-drenched Mediterranean coast, Provence is the epicenter of the world’s most iconic rosés. At its heart lies the famed Côtes de Provence, flanked by its satellite appellations Coteaux d’Aix-en-Provence and Coteaux Varois en Provence. When global demand for Provence rosé soared, these additional zones expanded access to high-quality wines from across the region. From mountain-framed vineyards to breezy seaside villages, each subregion delivers its own expression of the classic Provençal style.
