Bold & Beautiful from Burgundy 🇫🇷

Under the guidance of Dominique Lafon, Domaine de Comtes Lafon became one of the most influential wineries in the world. Today the next generation is at the helm and continues to produce some of the world’s most beautiful Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. One of the rarest and most limited wines from this iconic producer is now in stock.

The 2023 Meursault 1er Cru Porusots comes from an organic parcel in this east by southeast vineyard site full of white marl and deep clay. Low intervention yet meticulous work in the cellar brings out the very best of the site. Dense and creamy, yet seriously electric stuff. Balanced and bright with notes of marzipan, lemon curd and stony minerality. Just insanely good!

Live Art This Saturday & Sunday! 🎨🥂

Erick Toussaint Erick Toussaint is the artist behind the dynamic chalk wall here at Vino Carta. Since 2022 Toussaint has created seasonal expressions of vineyard ecosystems at various stages of a vintage. They are beautifully vivid displays of terroir and wildlife in the form of a store-length mural.

“Typically we try to focus on seasonal changes in California wine country, with a focus on the intersection of agriculture and the wildlife that shares the space.

I always like to incorporate water, as the ocean and fresh-water cycle play such a vital role in wine country. So that is part of it obviously, but last Spring, I put a focus on bird-life.

Birds have an interesting relationship to viticulture. More and more, vineyards are employing birds to help with pest control. And in some cases birds are outperforming pesticides.”

We are endlessly fascinated by every one of his creations.
Come watch this season’s mural come to life in real time.

Spritz up your Saturday the VC way 🌞🍾

This Saturday, and every Saturday in September, we’re doing all-day apéro.

🥂 Tucked away in its own little corner is our apéritif selection and it’s time to put a spotlight on it. Each week, we’re rotating through a few of our favorites in spritz form.

🇪🇸 This week: Partida Creus Partida Creus MUZ Vermouth, served long, cold, and bubbly.

🍇 Made in Catalunya by , MUZ starts with a blend of young and aged red wines plus a little oxidized white wine, then gets infused with a secret mix of herbs and botanicals (51 to be exact) dating back to 1870.

🌿 It’s bright, herbal, and more vinous than your average vermouth. Notes of red fruit, citrus peel, dried herbs, and enough richness to round it all out.

Consider your Saturday aperitivo handled.

Sam’s BTG Highlight of The Week!

SIMON BUSSER 2025 ‘PRINTEMPS’
Dark-fruited, yet buoyant blend of Malbec and Merlot from the legendary Simon Busser. Located just outside of Cahors in the commune of Prayssac, Simon farms about 5 hectares of Malbec, Merlot, Trousseau, Savagnin and Chenin Blanc traditionally, utilizing a horse-drawn plow and eschews the use of any additives in the cellar.

The lighter side of Malbec. It even comes chilled down.

This and more are waiting in our A/C ❄️ Check out the fully updated menu through the link in our bio.

The Rosé Making a Case for Endless Summer 🍉

Ulli Stein farms some of the oldest vines in Mosel’s steeply sloped riverside sites. Known for rieslings packed with layers of minerality and fruit, Stein also produces a small amount of enchanting rosé each year. Composed mostly of Pinot Noir with small amounts of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, it offers distinct minerality along with crunchy red berries, watermelon and cutting fresh acidity.

One of this year’s very best rosés!
Come down and snag one.

Coastal Portugal in Two Bottles 🏖️

Quinta San Michel Quinta de San Michel is the newest Portuguese wine on our shelves. Although it is a relatively young winery, it offers a glimpse into the delicious, traditional wines of Colares, Portugal’s coastal wine region northwest of Lisbon. They produce a limited quantity of fresh, saline wines shaped by the region’s calcareous sandy soils and maritime climate.

Malvasia de Janas offers saline spice, floral notes, and soft white fruit in a vibrant, high energy package. Curtimenta is a skin contact blend of Malvasia de Janas and Arinto. After 15 days on the skins, the cuvée ages for 12 months in oak barrels resulting in a textured, vertical wine with notes of summer orchard fruit, citrus peel and acacia blossom.

Both of these gems are now available!
