Spring 2023 Release
The Underground Wine Club's spring 2023 quarterly release is now available. This selection was specially curated by winemaker Ryan Sidoti and sommelier Kurt Guba, and features a bottle of each of these vintages:
2017 Nana Jean Single Vineyard Pinot Noir (This is the last time the wine will be available before the final few cases go away to hide in Ryan’s secret vault!);
2021 Unoaked Chardonnay (This is a steely, briny style with a distinct limestone minerality, a perfect pairing for March and April oysters);
2018 Cabernet Franc (a boisterous fruity wine bursting with currant and cranberry, layered with heady aromas of cigar wrapper);
2017 Cabernet Franc (a Wine Club exclusive re-release, a spice laden wine, lifted by a red currant and cherry nose, supported by firm tannins and well-integrated acidity).
The bottles of 2017 Cabernet Franc were generously painted by local artist and cinematic scenic designer, David Butler. His most recent mural can be seen at the Eberl Iron Works. David also served as production designer for the upcoming film, Pinball, The Man Who Saved the Game, showing in select cinemas and streaming services on March 15.
New to the quarterly release is the ability to fully customize your order through the online member portal – not typically a fan of white wine? Sub in your favorite red! Looking for a bottle to accompany an upcoming special occasion or dinner? Choose an additional bottle at checkout! As always, reach out to us directly for any questions or help you may need choosing your next favorite wine.
Remember, as an Underground member your 20% discount is applied to all wines purchased. Please continue to give us feedback so that we can improve the Underground Wine Club experience for everyone.
"It’s hard to believe it has only been two years since we began our mission of assembling a little association of wine lovers, gastronomes, and hedonists. Sharing our passion for small production wine growing and highlighting the Niagara Escarpment’s consistent ability to produce truly world class wines has been a pleasure," stated Vineyard Manager Kurt Guba.
“If you aren’t taking advantage of your discount on all wine-related events, you should be! It is a great way to make the most of your membership. Check out our First Friday Wine Class which is a great way to expand your wine IQ. We will also let you know about pairing dinners, special tastings and vault releases available to Underground Wine Club Members, and you can also check out all of our fun Happenings.” added Winemaker Ryan Sidoti.
