On Wednesdays we wine! Cellar Pick by the Glass: DeForville 2020 Loreto Barbaresco

A gray, rainy day calls for something with depth—perfumed roses, cherry, spice, and the structure of Nebbiolo to linger with the weather. The Loreto cru gives the wine both elegance and grit, a perfect match for a moody sky.

Family-run since 1860, DeForville is known for traditional Barbaresco that stays true to place. The 2020 Loreto shows that heritage with remarkable balance.

By the glass, best enjoyed while the rain falls. $24 for a glass pour tonight 👀👀👀

This week’s Cellar Pick by the Glass: Las Jaras Glou Glou

A chillable red for the last days of summer—bright, lifted, and full of juicy red fruit.

Glou glou (French for “glug-glug”) describes wines that are light, refreshing, and meant to be drunk with ease.

Las Jaras is the collaboration between winemaker Joel Burt and Eric Wareheim (yes, the actor/comedian turned serious vintner). Together, they’ve created a benchmark for the chillable red category.

By the glass, while the season lasts.

Coming at you with our Wednesday cellar pick! If you love our Paşaeli House Red, meet its big brother. From Turkey’s Aegean coast, K2 is the estate’s flagship Bordeaux blend—layered with dark fruit, firm structure, and elegant depth. A rare chance to experience the winery’s most refined expression, available now by the glass in limited pours. It also happens to be one Chef Mary’s favorites! Perfect with our Ali Nazik Kebab or the Imam Bayıldı.

On Wednesday’s we wine!!!

Cellar Pick BTG ✨
A rare bird in the glass: Max Ferd. Richter’s Mülheimer Sonnenlay “Zeppelin” Riesling — usually reserved for bottle service, now offered by the glass while it lasts.

This off-dry Mosel beauty lands with citrus oil, flint, and electric tension — named for the Zeppelin airships that once transported Richter wines. Lifted, linear, and dangerously drinkable.

Pairs effortlessly with the spice, herbs, and brightness of our Eastern Mediterranean menu. Only a few glasses available. Don’t miss the drop.

It’s Wednesday and we have another outstanding cellar pick available by the glass this evening! Picture this…a rainy day in the Mediterranean. 🌫️🌫️🌫️⛈️⛈️⛈️.
Château Salettes has worked these Bandol hills for 700+ years - once for the Knights Templar, now for Mourvèdre.
Their Rouge is everything we want when the skies get moody: black fruit, wild thyme, a little smoke, and the depth of the sea close by.
Earthy, layered, and built for long conversations and slow meals. Stop by for a glass pour tonight!
