This Father’s Day, skip the tie and grab something he’ll actually love.
Here’s what we’re featuring at Merchants Wine & Spirits:
🍷 KATHERINE CABERNET — Goldschmidt Vineyards, Alexander Valley
A classic. Rich blackberry, dark cherry, plum, and smooth silky tannins from one of Sonoma’s finest Cab vineyards. Made by Nick Goldschmidt and his daughter Katherine — literally a wine built on a father-daughter bond. Perfect for the grill.
🇪🇸 VATAN TORO 2021 — Bodegas Ordonez, Spain
96 points Vinous. Ranked #45 in the 2025 Top 100. From 100+ year old ungrafted vines in Spain’s ancient Toro region — this is serious juice. Violets, lavender, dark plum, espresso, and velvety tannins that go on forever. A wine worth savoring.
🇦🇺 TUFF NUT PET-NAT — Delinquente Wine Co., Australia
For the dad who doesn’t take himself too seriously. This natural, lightly sparkling pét-nat is made from the only Bianco d’Alessano vines in Australia — tropical pineapple, honeysuckle, preserved lemon, and a crisp savoury finish. Low ABV, high fun.
Come in and grab a bottle (or three) before Sunday. 🔥
