Waxlight Bar a Vin

Woooowweee so many new wines this week, including this petite Syrah blend from @monteriocellars in Cali. A collaboration with @patrickwine & @paxmahle with a focus on sustainability, soil, and true old California style wines. Their Red Skull Wine is a blend of petite Syrah, mission (pais), and Zinfandel. It’s bold and juicy thanks to some carbonic maceration. It’s vinified in stainless and concrete, then aged for 10mos in old barrels. We are beyond excited to showcase this ...wine on our glass pour list. Ask us about the other newbies we’re pumped about- montepulciano, Willamette gamay, still xarel-lo from Penedes, Spain, declassified Barolo by Borgogno- the list goes on! #newcalimeetsoldcali #baravin #winebar #monteriocellars See more

We are so pumped about the newest orange (amber) wine addition, @unicozelo Esoterica! It sold out in less than a month and we snagged 2 cases (whew)! A blend of Fiano, Zibibbo and a few other grapes, it’s refreshing and grippy, spicy, with a long finish. Amber and hazy, this wine sees no fining or filtration and just a touch of sulphur at bottling. Unico Zelo is a favorite of ours- we’ve featured their Nero d’Avola for a while now! They plant mostly Italian grapes in Western... Australia, while showcasing what Australian wine and winemaking is all about, all with the practice of environmental sustainability for future generations. That’s all something we can get behind. The results are delicious and enjoyable. Cheers! #waxlightbaravin #newwaveaussiewine #sustainability #sommsays See more

A few weeks back we received a half of a beautiful Mangalitsa hog from @alwayssomethingfarm In the spirit of total utilization, the chops have been dry aged, the shoulder has been braised, the leg lies dormant in a shio koji cure, the odd bits have been melted into a Sugo that is currently adorning our adorable little handmade gnochetti. All that is left is.... well only the most succulent meat on such a noble beast, the head, which here sits in a boldly flavored stew of la...te summer tomatoes, fennel and Walla Walla onions. Hidden underneath is a sort of spoon bread baked from @masienda conico azul corn. A curtido inspired condiment of @promisedlandcsa Napa cabbage, last winters carrots, and unripe blueberries will cool it off and leave you refreshed for another bite.... #thebloochberriestastelikebloochberries #testaandtheresta #nosetotailortailtonose? #dontworryjeffleafblewthepatio
