Rarely would we ever tell the truth. We wanted to hoard them for ourselves, or stash them away to drink with our
sommelier friends in-the-know. Well, Parcelle Picks is our big reveal. This is our selection of the hard-to-find,
ready-to-drink, sometimes well known, maybe obscure, and always limited wines we love most.
Call it a hit list, a daily deal, or whatever you like. It’s the best stuff we have right now—and at the best prices.
Chosen by sommeliers. Ready to drink now.
The best bottle on the list today.
Alzinger
Alzinger, Grüner Veltliner Smaragd 'Ried Steinertal' 2018
$45
Here's what you should know about it:
- You’ll like grüner if you like zesty whites like Sancerre.
- This is Alzinger’s top wine. You can age it for 20 years or drink it today. Buy two.
- ‘Smaragd’ means it’s a more textural style– think White Burgundy.
Things we actually said...
“There are a few foods that make sommeliers shudder in fear because they’re tricky to pair: asparagus and artichokes are chief amongst them. Ironically, these are our favorite foods to eat in the spring. Grüner has always been our get-out-of-jail-free card, the white you can pair with anything. Do it.”
As sommeliers, we often get asked, “What’s the best wine on the list?”
