Molly’s back with a new way to elevate your cocktails game! 🍹

You've heard of Simple Syrup, now meet Difficult Syrup!

04/01/2025

This “robo-intelligence” thing is starting to get out of hand, so Molly wanted to see for herself how smart it really is. She asked a computer generated program to create a simple cocktail and then recreated it. All in the name of science, of course. 😉

We are calling this one the “Cyber Sipper.”

What do you think, would you try this cocktail?

🍷 The 2025 Highly Rated Under $20 List is Here! 🎉

We’re excited to share some incredible white wines from around the world – all under $20 and ready to elevate your collection. Plus, these wines are eligible for any “Winery Direct” deals you spot in the app’s Deals section!

Today we are sharing our favorite White Wines:

🍇 Borrasca Prosecco DOCG (Italy) - White flowers, Bartlett pears, and almonds layer and show the elevated quality of this Prosecco. The wine is rich while keeping a fruit forward soft side present giving a nice texture on the mid-pallet and finish.

🍇 Nobilis Vinho Verde White Blend (Portugal) - Pale yellow gold color with aromas of citrus, orange and grapefruit rinds. This is a "better for you" take on Vinho Verde with lower alcohol (9% ABV) and only 84 calories. The palate is light and almost effervescent with a light lime zest finish.

🍇 Saladini Pilastri Pecorino Offida DOCG Organic, 2023 (Italy) - Sliced pear, lemon and peach aromas, with salty olive undertones. It’s fresh and creamy with a medium body and a tasty, saline finish. From organically grown grapes.

🍇 Cambos Feret Sauvignon Blanc Les Buissons, 2023 (France) - A fruity, herbal and refreshing sauvignon blanc with notes of green pears, limes, fresh flowers and wild herbs on the nose. Medium-bodied and fresh, with bright acidity and a delicious, fruity finish.

🍇 Albino Armani Pinot Grigio Corvara, 2023 (Italy) - Notes of sliced pears, chalky lemon and grapefruit peel with hints of dried herbs. Medium-bodied, juicy and mouthwatering with vivid acidity and a fruity finish.

🍇 Olema Chardonnay Reserve Sonoma County, 2022 (California) - Medium-bodied wine with aromas and flavors of apple, lemon, stone and pear. This is a fresh and crisp white wine with light vanilla almost custard like note and a crisp finish.

🍇 Heritiers Benoit Pepe Maurice Bourgogne Chardonnay, 2022 (France) - Sourced by Patrick Luquet of Domaine Luquet- A fresh chardonnay showing lemon rind, white apricot and jasmine aromas. It’s medium-bodied, creamy and supple in texture. Very clean.

Italy’s white wines offer a remarkable spectrum of flavors, terroirs, and traditions. While Pinot Grigio remains a globally recognized favorite, Italy’s diverse wine regions produce an array of distinctive and exceptional white wines worth discovering. Here are some top selections that showcase the elegance and complexity of Italian whites:

Pinot Grigio – A Classic Staple

🍷 Albino Armani Pinot Grigio (Italy) – A refined expression of Pinot Grigio, this wine presents bright notes of sliced pear, lemon, and grapefruit peel, with subtle hints of dried herbs. Its vivid acidity and juicy texture lead to a crisp, refreshing finish. Rated 90 points by James Suckling.

🍷 Tesoro Della Regina Pinot Grigio (Valdadige, Italy) – From the renowned Valdadige region, this elegant, medium-bodied wine features layers of apple, citrus, and mineral notes. Its versatility makes it a perfect match for grilled fish, soft cheeses, and poultry. A refreshing choice for summer aperitifs and lively gatherings.

🍷 Conte Priola Pinot Grigio – A budget-friendly yet well-crafted option, this dry, light-bodied wine delivers refreshing citrus flavors with a delicate crispness. Ideal as an aperitif or paired with seafood dishes.

🍷 Conte Priola Pinot Grigio Gold Release (Friuli-Venezia Giulia) – A refined take on Pinot Grigio, offering vibrant notes of citrus, apple, and pear. Its well-balanced structure and clean, crisp finish make it an excellent companion to seafood, salads, or light pasta dishes.

Beyond Pinot Grigio – Italy’s Distinctive White Varietals

🍷 Gattavecchi Vernaccia di San Gimignano (Tuscany) – Vernaccia, one of Tuscany’s most historic white grapes, delivers a crisp, dry wine with expressive floral, citrus, and tropical fruit notes. A subtle hint of spice enhances its zesty finish, making it an excellent match for seafood, salads, and light appetizers.

🍷 Terre di Talamo Vento Vermentino Maremma Toscana (Tuscany) – This Vermentino from the coastal Maremma region offers a compelling profile of green mango, minerality, and pear skin. Rich and full-bodied, yet exceptionally clean and refreshing. Rated 92 points by James Suckling. Organically produced.

🍷 Saladini Pilastri Pecorino Offida DOCG Organic (Marche) – A hidden gem from central Italy, this Pecorino wine is both crisp and rich, displaying vibrant notes of yellow peaches, minerality, and a touch of smokiness. A beautiful representation of Offida’s unique terroir and DOCG status. Organically grown.

From timeless Pinot Grigio to the elegant Vernaccia, expressive Vermentino, and distinctive Pecorino, Italy’s white wines offer something for every palate. Whether you’re seeking a refreshing aperitif or a structured white to pair with seafood and light dishes, these selections showcase the brilliance of Italian winemaking.
