The Simple Wine · Spring 2026
Your Spring Box
Is Here.
George walks through every bottle: the producers, the regions, and more.
Every bottle in this box was chosen for the season of Spring. Longer days, better weather, the first dinners outside. Whites that are actually interesting, not just cold. Reds light enough to drink outside.

Spring 2026 · Your Six Bottles
What's in the Box
UVA White
Brancacci
Clean and modern at 10.5% with zero sugar. Apple, citrus, a whisper of tropical fruit. Open this one first, while everything else is still coming together.
Pair with Sushi, seafood, light pasta, aperitivo
Nebbiolo Langhe DOC
Ciabot
Same grape as Barolo, same soils, ready to drink now. Red cherry, rose petal, dried herbs. Serve slightly cool at 60–62°F and watch people immediately refill their glass.
Pair with Mushroom risotto, roast pork, spring lamb
Chablis
Domaine Mosnier
Four generations of farming. Oyster shell, lemon zest, and flinty minerality from Kimmeridgian limestone. Unoaked and precise. This is what Chardonnay tastes like before anyone gets clever with it.
Pair with Oysters, scallops, roast chicken
Chianti Riserva DOCG
Etrusca
Three generations of farming these hills. Cherry, dried herbs, a touch of leather — just enough structure to hold up to food. Riserva aging gives you complexity you'd expect to pay more for.
Pair with Pasta, slow-braised meats, a weeknight steak
Sauvignon Blanc
Tiare, Collio
Named best Sauvignon Blanc in the world in 2014 and again in 2016. Not best Italian — best in the world. Citrus peel, white flowers, saline mineral edge. Drink it wherever you'd normally reach for Sancerre.
Pair with Grilled fish, goat cheese, anything citrus-driven
Tintilia del Molise
Marta Rosa
An indigenous grape from Italy's smallest region that nearly went extinct. This bottle is over a decade old and drinks like something from a serious collector's cellar. Open it an hour early. Save it for a reason.
Pair with Aged pecorino, braised short rib, a celebration
