Alan Burge from Bottle to Glass ~ here Saturday March 15th from 2:00 pm to 5:00 pm

Wines from the Southern Hemisphere stand out due to their climate, geography, and winemaking traditions, offering bold flavors, high quality, and great value. Here’s what makes wines from Argentina, Chile, and South Africa unique:

Opposite Harvest Seasons ~ Since these regions are in the Southern Hemisphere,harvest happens around February–April, opposite to the Northern Hemisphere (September–October).

Higher Elevation & Maritime Influence ~ Many vineyards are at high altitudes or near coastal breezes, ensuring cool nights and slow ripening for better acidity and complexity. This helps create fresh, fruit-driven wines with good balance.

  • Fitz Roy Sauvignon Blanc, Chile $12.99
  • Franschhoek Chenin Blanc, South Africe $14.99
  • Elqui Wines Carmenere, Chile $26.99
  • Mi Terruno Expresion Malbec, Mendoza Argentina $14.99
  • Flaherty Cauquenes Red, Chile $34.99
