Who said great wine has to be expensive? This collection of classic, delicious French wines curated by our team ranges from the singular Saint Bris — a Sauvignon Blanc from Chablis — to Beaujolais from next-generation Beaujolais winemaker Laura Lardy, to crisp, refreshing Picpoul de Pinet. These are the perfect bottles to keep stashed in the cupboard for that impromptu homemade pizza party, or even a weeknight roast chicken. Value wine never tasted so good.

Saying “California wine” is something like saying “French wine.” Because the wines of America’s largest winegrowing region are as varied as the state’s landscape. And today’s California wines are breaking away from the state’s past affinity for big oaky Chardonnays and bold Cabernet Sauvignon. The bottles we’re most excited about coming out of California come from the hands of small producers working passionately to define and transmit terroir from the hills, valleys, and forests of California’s subregions. These are thirst-quenching, table-elevating, mind-blowing wines that we can’t wait for you to try.

If one collection were to define us, it would be this: the Dedalus classics. These are the bottles that get to the heart of what good wine is today. Some may be familiar, some unknown. What they share are a few common truths: they are made by passionate people, render terroir in hyperrealistic brushstrokes, and are outstanding examples of what balance and complexity taste like.

These are the producers we champion. The stories we believe in. We can’t wait to share them with you.
