Let’s take a moment to appreciate seafood. Its exquisite flavors, so evocative of the deep blue and its endless wonder, take on myriad forms with the diverse varieties of crustaceans, mollusks, and fish we have come to know. The French expression fruits de mer, or frutti di mare in Italian, is fittingly evocative, as if the ocean were an enormous blue garden full of heavenly fruits waiting to be plucked and bitten into…

The last few weeks have seen the first wave of 2025 rosés arrive at our shores. We don’t play favorites, but a few undisputable knock-outs are finally here...

You might think of the 2024 vintage as the Beaujolais’ Tiny Desk Concert rather than its Super Bowl. These wines might not overpower you with the amps, light shows, and special effects of other recent, solar vintages, but they can still dazzle and charm you in other creative, elegant, and intimate ways...

In 2016, KLWM sent a fearsome trio to Sardinia to scout the island’s wines: Kermit, the taster; Gail, the photographer; and Anthony, the chauffeur and translator (alright, I did some tasting too, mind you). Amid a sea of ordinary wines, we sampled a Vermentino that immediately stood out for its authentic character...

The Quenard family’s long history in the Savoie doesn’t begin with André, but his arrival at the domaine in 1944 marks a turning point in the family’s legacy. When André took over their polyculture farm in the village of Chignin, the wines were still sold only by the barrel to café owners. Around 1960, with a deep-seated belief in the quality of his terroir—before Chignin’s AOC designation in 1976—he began bottling his own wines, championing the steep scree slopes of Torméry, and helping to establish the reputation of an entire winegrowing region along the way...

Behind the postcard-worthy image of Punta Crena’s vines, which toe the cliffs over a glassy blue sea, is the story of a family without pretense, a little yellow house in Varigotti, and an extraordinary sense of hospitality that is undeniably genuine…

Here is a collection of recent arrivals. Every week, we’ll be adding a dozen or more new arrivals, so check back often for your favorite classics or new discoveries!

An ever-changing offering of wines that are just about to sell out; one last opportunity to seize a range of selections before they disappear from our shelves forever.

When the esteemed French wine artist Michel Tolmer created beautiful artwork for our 50th anniversary, we knew right away that we had to feature it on a few select items of merch. After spending maybe a little too much time researching the options, we landed on a classy, leather-strap cap, a comfortable t-shirt made from 100% cotton, and a tote made with incredibly sturdy, fair-trade, and organic cotton by a certified B corp that invests in the livelihoods of women and farmers of India, featuring three wine sleeves and two other compartments for all of your other needs!
