Ragù alla Bolognese, frozen (1 1/2 cups)
As a good friend once wrote, "the formula for ragù alla Bolognese is simple and straightforward, if unnervingly open to interpretation." True enough! Let's see . . . beef, veal, or pork? Add sausage or prosciutto? Tomatoes? Maybe broth? Red or white wine or neither? Milk or cream or neither? Some years ago I went through every variation I could think of. This is the version I liked best then and I love it even more today. This amount is perfect for two people. Chose an egg pasta. -Rene
$20.00Chicken Stock, frozen (quart)
Our chicken stock is really more of a broth than a stock. It's delicious just sipped from a mug or you could add some rice or noodles and vegetables to make a very satisfying soup. Our recipe couldn't be more simple. We simmer a pound of very meaty Bell & Evan bones for each pound of water for several hours--until the meat has infused the water with all its good flavor. Then we quickly chill it down. The result is a super delicious brew that is a terrific base for soups and stew. It's also great in risotto, but you may want to cut it with a bit of water. It's intense!

Rosé
Capréoles, Beaujolais Villages Rosé, "Cossinelle" 2024 (org + bio)
*organic + biodynamic* Cédric and Catherine Lacareaux immediately fell in love with this 250 year old estate in Régnie-Durette in 2014 when they first layed eyes on the vineyard. They are making a family life for themselves there, and we are all the beneficiaries of their efforts. They are producing a range of absolutely delicious wines all from Gamay, including this rosé, aptly named by their toddler, Margot, who was enamorred of the cocinelles, or as she said, “cossinelles” (ladybugs), in the vineyards—a symbol of organic agriculture. This is a vivacious and thoroughly delicious rosé.
$21.50Roquefort, Côtes de Provence Rosé, "Corail" 2024 (org+bio)
*organic+biodynamic* It’s back and it’s great! The color is beautiful, the nose is fantastic, and the wine is packed with flavor—thanks to the amazing blend of red grapes, including Grenache, Syrah, Cinsault, Carignan, as well as Clairette. This is definitely not your run-of-the-mill Provençal rosé! This is a brilliant wine that’s refreshing, but shockingly sturdy. Drink this with seafood, of course, but it would be great with all sorts of pasta dishes, grilled sausages, and barbecued chicken. Bouillabaisse anyone?
$24.00Müller-Ruprecht, Pfalz, Pinot Noir Rosé 2024 (org)
"org" Sabine Wöhrwag (née Müller) and her husband Phillip took the reigns of this old estate (established 1702) and sidestepped tradition to make extraordinary and atraditional wines. The focus is on Riesling, but they have succumbed to the allure of Pinot Noir, which prospers in the limestone rich soil of Pfalz. How fortunate for us. This rosé, which is 100% Pinot Noir, is just a joy to drink. It’s wonderfully aromatic, loaded with fresh fruit flavors, and it has the zippiness that keeps you coming back for another sip. The pale pink color belies the richness of this rosé. If you like having a glass of rosé before dinner, this is the ticket. But it’s also great with everything from salade Niçoise to grilled chicken.

Sparkling Wine
Adami. Prosecco di Valdobbiadene Superiore, Brut, "Bosco di Gica"
Who can resist the charms of Prosecco, that light, bubbly, and easy-drinking wine from northern Italy. Let's face it; it's fun to drink and a lot less expensive than Champagne! This "brut" version from Adami is a long-time favorite at Hi-Rise. Adami's vineyards are in the heart of the most prized Prosecco zone--Valdobbiadene, a gorgeous region with fantastic food. This is a wine worth having in your refrigerator at all times.
$22.50Juvé y Camps, Cava, Brut Rosé (org + sust)
*organic + sustainable* This Cava would put some rosés from Champagne to shame! It’s surprisingly complex and delicious. It’s unusually expressive and quite unique. A thrill to drink. It’s almost a shame to associate it with “Cava”, the Spanish DO for fizzy wines made with the traditional Champagne method. Cava generally is in a rather sad state. But Juvé y Camps is a sparkling example of what Cava can, and should, be. This rosé is 100% Pinot Noir. It’s bottle-aged for almost two years. It’s then disgorged in the traditional manner and sent along its way. A joy to drink and a super price for the quality.

Nigl, Kremstal (Niederösterreich), Grüner Veltliner, "Freiheit" 2023 (sust)
*sustainable* Nigl is one of the best wine estates in Austria. Period. Martin Nigl, owner and winemaker, produces some of Austria’s most amazing white wines. This entry-level Grüner, in this vintage, is irresistible. If you like Grüner Veltliner, and who doesn’t, you’ll love this ripe, juicy, complex wine. This is really absurd quality at this level. You’ll like this before dinner with snacks, or with many entrées from fillet of cod or halibut, or even roasted striper, to fire-grilled chicken or a Cobb salad.
$26.50OUT OF STOCKKruger-Rumpf, Nahe, Riesling Trocken 2023 (org)
*organic* Stefan Rumpf and his young son Georg are now making grand cru level wines that are second to none in the Nahe region. You get a very good feel for that high-end quality even in their basic trocken Riesling, which is packed with refreshing fruit and mineral flavors. It's bone dry. A wine for all cuisines and all seasons.

*sustainable* Frédéric and Céline Gueguen seem too young to be turning out such pure and delicious wines. But they obviously know what they’re doing—the proof is in the bottle! Even their Petit Chablis, literally "Little Chablis", is an irresistible expression of the terroir—crisp, seductively ripe, and refreshing. It’s the sort of wine that keeps you looking for just one more sip. It’s everything white Burgundy, and particularly Chablis, should be. Their premier crus are amazing. This is a domaine to watch! We certainly will be bringing in as many as we can get our hands on. A joy to drink.

$39.00Verpaille, Mâcon-Villages, "Vieilles Vignes" 2023 (org)
*new vintage* *organic* When a winemaker starts talking about 100-year-old vines and organic farming, you can’t help but think the wine will be expensive. And when you taste that wine, and it tastes absolutely delicious, you KNOW it’s going to be expensive. But contrary to the evidence, this beautiful Mâcon-Villages from Philippe and Estelle Baptiste is remarkably good and remarkably inexpensive. Seriously, this is very classy juice with excellent depth and perfect balance. It’s suave and sophisticated without being pretentious. It’s a perfect aperitif wine before dinner, perhaps with gougères. It would also pair beautifully with all sorts of shellfish as well as various cheeses. Really delicious stuff.

Champalou, Vouvray 2023 (sust)
*sustainable* Adjectives such as friendly, dry, and seductive aren’t usually used to describe a young Chenin Blanc. But that’s what you get from this scrumptious wine from Champalou. It’s crisp, clean, and loaded with mineral flavor, but also balanced perfectly with lush, ripe fruit. It really shines with food. You could easily drink this wine with any seafood, even lobster drenched in butter. But try it with roast pork, or roast chicken. Fantastic for sipping before dinner with cheesy snacks, including gougères,
$30.00Pépière, Muscadet Sèvre et Maine Sur Lie, "Clos de Briords - Cuvée Vieilles Vignes" 2023 (org)
*organic* This absolutely delicious wine has everything you could want from a Muscadet—it’s crisp and loaded with mineral flavor, but it’s also has a creamy softness that can only come from aging “sur lie”, or on the yeast—in this case 7 months! This is “old vines” stuff and capable of aging for years, though it’s irresistable now. It pairs brilliantly with a platter of Wellfleet oysters and clams, or Chatham scallops, or grilled lobster. In other words, great with all New England seafood. This is one of Pepiere’s best wines. You’ll love it!

Anne-Sophie Dubois, Fleurie, "l'Alchemiste" 2023 (org)
*new vintage* organic* At this point, our regulars know we offer some extraordinary reds from “new” old-school Beaujolais producers. These grower/winemakers, in the prime villages of Morgon, Moulin-a-Vent, and Fleurie, produce wines with great depth and character. Anne Sophie Dubois is a true a believer in the tradition of Beaujolais. She farms small parcels in Fleurie—perhaps our favorite cru. She produces delicious wine that is exactly what Beaujolais is supposed to be—refreshing, satisfying, and a perfect match for a wide variety of foods. This Fleurie is luscious. Some might say it’s sexy. In any case, it’s ready to rock and roll right now. Bring on the roast chicken and French fries!
$35.00Dupeuble, Beaujolais 2023
This is the most popular Beaujolais the Hi-Rise has ever sold. This amazingly deep purple wine is packed with dark, plumy flavor. It’s the perfect food wine—summer, fall, winter, and spring.
$21.50Jean-Marc Burgaud, Morgon, "Les Charmes" 2023 (bio)
*biodynamic* You will almost always find one wine or another from Burgaud at the Hi-Rise. He may be the best winemaker in Beaujolais! His wines, from basic Beaujolais Villages to his vaunted single-vineyard crus, are exceptional year in and year out. He is a proponent of biodynamic viticulture, and virtually everything in his vineyards is done by hand, though he brings in horses for the heavy work. No machines! Burgaud's Morgon vineyard, Les Grands Cras, boasts vines more than 65 years old. The vineyard produces exceptional wine. Of course, it's loaded with fruit and it's frightfully easy to drink, but it's also loaded with mineral character. It's really something!
$25.00Jean Paul + Charly Thévenet, Morgon, "Tradition" 2022 (org)
"organic" Jean-Paul Thévenet was one of the notorious Gang of Four, a group of producers who had the vision, as well as the guts, to change the course of wine-making in Beaujolais. When 90% of the juice from Beaujolais was used to feed the “Nouveau” frenzy, they went back to basics and began to make wine the old-fashioned way in the cellar, and in the vineyard without herbicides and fertilizers. They produced lip-smacking Beaujolais of substance that would age beautifully for years. Jean-Paul’s son, Charly, worked for three years with another “gangster”, Marcel Lapierre, before joining his father in the winery. This wine, made from 70-year-old vines, is a remarkable example of how great organic wine-making can be. The wine is deep, rich, and thoroughly delicious.

*biodynamic* The Perroud brothers, Robert and Michel, farm a few small, family-owned vineyards in Brouilly, the southern-most commune in Beaujolais. The soil is generally clay and limestone, but this particular vineyard has a layer of amethyst, a violet crystal often used in jewelry. The brothers learned farming and winemaking from their father and they stick to very traditional biodynamic methods. The results are really delicious. The wines are deep, earthy, and lip-smacking good. This is a great food wine—summer, fall, winter, and spring. Really great with everything from pasta to chicken pot pie, or grilled steak tips.

*lutte raisonnée* At one time, Château Thivin and the Domain du Pavillon de Chavannes merged through marriage. For more than 40 years, with all the best vineyards on the hill, the joint domain was the benchmark for great Côtes de Brouilly. When the last member of the marriage died, the domains reverted to the respective heirs. Both continue to make amazing, classic Côtes de Brouilly, due in part to their outstanding vineyards. This version, from Pavillon de Chavannes, is the “Cuvé des Ambassades” and is stocked in every French embassy around the world. The wine is always the lushest, most concentrated of the Côte de Brouilly. As always, this is one of the best food wines anywhere.

$48.00Méo-Camuzet, Bourgogne 2013 (org + bio)
"organic" As of 1988, most of this great Burgundy estate was leased out to sharecroppers, including Henri Jayer, perhaps the most famous Burgundy winemaker of the last century. So revered are his wine that they sell today for as much as $45,000 a bottle. When Jayer retired in ’88, the young Jean-Nicolas Meo, whose father was an absentee owner, took over the estate and fortunately for all concerned, Jayer consulted. The wines are still made in the Jayer style, which is to say they are easy to drink but still full-flavored and complex. Jayer loved to eat well and he thought wine should complement food and not compete with it. This simple Bourgogne rouge is an eminently delightful wine that lives up to Jayer’s standards.

*sustainable* Corbières is that gorgeous, sun-drenched, wind-swept, territory in the south of France bordered by the majestic Pyrenees and the blue Mediterranean Sea. The wines by law must be at least 50 percent Carignan, a grape that offers luscious, dark-fruit flavors. Bruno Laboucarié at Fontsainte fashions a delicious wine composed of two parts old-vine Carignan, one part Grenache Noir, and 10% Syrah. The result is an easy drinking quaff that goes with the wonderful cuisine of southern France—think lots of grilled vegetables and meats, hearty stews, and seafood. This is a real “country” wine. There aren’t many examples of this sort of wine around these days. Enjoy them before they slip away.
$18.00La Liquière, Faugeres, Vieilles Vignes 2022 (org)
*organic* In a blind tasting, you might think this rich, flavor-packed red from Faugères is better than some wines from Châteauneuf du Pape that sell for three times the price. You’d be right! It’s big, juicy, with deep color, and it’s as lusty as all get out. The character of this wine derives is character from an unusually large percentage old-vine Carignan (40%), which blends perfectly with the old-vine Grenache, Mourvedre, and Syrah. Faugères is really the star of the Languedoc, and Château de la Liquière is definitely the star of Faugères. Pair this one with a grilled rib-eye steak or roasted leg of lamb stuffed with rosemary and garlic.

The wine is rich, round, packed with flavor, and perfect to drink right now—maybe even slightly chilled! Of course, this Chinon would be fantastic with duck confit, or an earthy beef stew, or even a chicken pot pie. And bring on the grilled steak, chops, or mushroom lasagna.

Pibarnon, Bandol, "Les Restanques de Pibarnon" 2020 (org)
*organic* Generally, a good Bandol requires at least five years of aging. That’s certainly true of the superb Bandol from Château Pibarnon. And really, a ten-year-old Pibarnon, which is 100% Mourvedre, is just starting to reach its apogy! But amazingly this “second label” Bandol from Pibarnon is great to drink right NOW! It’s a blend of 70% young vine Mourvedre and 30% Grenache. This intense lip-smacker is packed with luscious, ripe flavors. It’s incredibly satisfying. Perfect with all traditional Provençal dishes. By the way, Les Restanques are “The Terraces” of the Pibarnon vineyard, which are cut into the steep slope of a natural amphitheater. Pibarnon is the highest vineyard in the Bandol region.

The family-owned domaine, handed from father to son since it was established in 1481, is most famous for its red Hermitage, a wine made from 100 percent Syrah. Mon Coeur, his introductory level wine is a blend of Grenache and Syrah. It ain’t Hermitage, but it’s still a delicious drink, with tons of rich, Provençal flavors and loads of character. But like Chave’s Hermitage, Mon Coeur is exceedingly elegant and easy to drink. This smooth wine would be perfect with any roasted bird. Also great with grilled steaks or lamb, or a chunk of Roquefort. Delicious wine!

*organic* Carlo la Rocca was a successful engineer, but bored to tears and feeling unfulfilled when, in 2018, he quit and bought a vineyard and gave himself totally to his passion—winemaking. We should all be glad he did. He makes only a couple wines, both of which are based on the usual Rhône varietals. This wine, M’arricriu, is comprised of Grenache, Cinsault, Syrah, and Counoise. The name comes from the Sicilian dialect of Carlo’s home and roughly translates to “I love life”. It’s a beautiful, light-hearted, easy drinking wine that easily pairs with all kinds of food and situations. It’s an homage to carefree living and to taking the time to appreciate life with friends and family. It’s downright lovely stuff.

In addition to their ever-popular Côtes du Rhône (also available at Hi-Rise), they make brilliant Vacqueyras in a completely natural and officially biodynamic manner. The Gaurrigues cuvée is a blend of Grenache (70%) and Syrah (30%) from vines that average 65 years of age. Old vines yield deep flavors. They call this wine Gaurrigues because it is redolent of the plains, or Gaurrigues, with its aromas of thyme, rosemary, savory, and wild lavender. The deep flavor is rich red fruits, including raspberry, and a touch of licorice. A very satisfying wine, indeed.

Though less known than other communes, such as Gigondas and Vacqueyras, Sablet is quickly moving up in the ranks, and Piaugier is one of the reasons. Jean-Marc Autran and his spouse Sophie, make some knock-out wines, including Gigondas, but this Sablet, made from Grenache and Syrah, is a scene-stealer. The color is deep and rich. The aroma is fantastic. And it’s loaded with dark, lusty Provençal flavors. This is the sort of wine you want with a big, thick, grass-fed sirloin steak, or spit-roasted leg of lamb. And it’s pretty amazing with a chunk of Roquefort as well. Delicious wine!

In Cahors, Jean-Pierre and Julien Ilbert at Combel-la-Serre use only Malbec to make this wonderfully dark, sexy wine for quaffing. It’s soooo easy to drink, and yet it has plenty of mineral character and enough grip to satisfy if a grilled steak is on your dinner plate.

This fantastic wine is gutsy, but elegant, full-flavored, but delicate, luscious but reserved. And it’s completely redolent of fall in the rolling hills of Piemonte, and in particular the Barolo zone.

Barolo and Barbaresco are the great wines of Italy’s Piedmont region in northern Italy. But when the Barolo and Barbaresco producers sit down to dinner, and arguably the best food in all of Italy, they drink DOLCETTO, because it’s delicious, juicy, and goes perfectly with everything. This particular Dolcetto is fantastic—lush, juicy, and downright slurpable. Aldo Vajra and his son Giuseppe are amazing winemakers.

Sadly, many producers turned greedy and ruined the wine, and its reputation, by over-cropping thereby turning out insipid Valpolicella.

Elisabetta Foradori realized the great potential of Teroldego and single-handedly brought the grape, and the wine, to international renown. At the same time, she also became a leader in the biodynamic and “natural” wine movement in Italy and beyond. Teroldego makes a deep, dark, luscious wine that’s loveable at first sip. It’s an easy drinking wine with lots of body, and it’s perfect with all sorts of foods, from simple pastas to roasted and braised meats.

The are several reasons Morin is one of the best Calvados producers. It starts with Normandy's apples. Apples have been grown in Normandy since the 8th century. Today more than 800 varieties of apple grow in Normandy, most of which were bred specifically for cider. They can be sweet, bitter, tangy, bitter-sweet, and usually quite tannic. These apples are not good to eat, but they make great cider and then great apple brandy. Naturally fermented apple cider has been distilled in Normandy since the early 1500s. Morin's Calvados is aged in old oak barrels stored in 200 year old caves. This VSOP is aged 5-6 years. It's smooth, incredibly aromatic, and redolent of fresh apples. Most important it has a distinctive and alluring flavor of apples. Don't think this is only a great way to end dinner. Morin's VSOP is delicious in cocktails--think Old Fashioned!
