Wagyu Ribeye and Bavette are the meat case feature for this Father's Day. For the ideal sip next to these extraordinary cuts, we're thirsty for...
El Enimigo 2012
89% Malbec + 6% Cabernet Franc + 5% Petit Verdot
Mendoza, Argentina
93pts and "Best of Year" feature, Wine Enthusiast
Alejandro Vigil’s El Enemigo wines are worth jumping on. This is typically smoky and dark up front, with molasses, marzipan, and blackberry aromas. The palate clamps down with tannic grip, while flavors of oak, blackberry, tobacco, vanilla and spices end briary and with subtlety, which is what makes this powerful wine so good.
An ideal pairing for grilled and well-marbled steaks. $25.75 (regularly $30!)

Love in a bottle: the scoop on Valentine's Day wine features
Cupid may use an arrow, but the Goose has what really works...
"For Your Meatheart" Dinner-for-two Package includes a bottle of La Cartuja Priorat 2013:
La Cartuja is a unique wine produced in the Priorat region, one of the most prestigious appellations in Spain. Priorat is special due to the unmistakable mineral identity that the licorella (volcanic Slate) imparts in its wines. When you taste a Priorat wine, you are not only tasting a grape but also a place. The mineral flavors of the place overpower the natural flavors of the grape. La Cartuja was born in 2007 with the objective of bottling a special wine that is able to capture the mineral identity of this unique territory. A second objective with La Cartuja was to make a Priorat that approachable and not alcoholic while young. Lastly and perhaps the most difficult of objectives to accomplish was to make a wine of this pedigree at an inconceivable price.
La Cartuja is a small production cuvée made from organically grown and estate-owned, grapes located in the Carthusian Les Solanes estate. Most Priorat wines are expensive and require lots of time before they’re drinkable. La Cartuja is a fresh vision of Priorat, a wine that is young and accessible. During medieval times, La Cartuja was the name given to a large geographical area governed by the Carthusian monks. Similar to the Vatican estates, this area had its own code of law. The whole of Priorat was a ‘Cartuja,’ a religious state rather than a civil domain. Priorat’s winemaking heritage began with the Carthusian monks. For centuries they performed the backbreaking work necessary to care for these difficult, isolated vineyards.
Two things make this wine unique: the quality and the price. La Cartuja proudly proclaims the identity of the flavors of Priorat. The wine is made in an approachable style to be enjoyed young. It is neither alcoholic nor overly tannic. Made with organic, estate-owned fruit, it is aged in French oak barrels for only 6 months.
And for a special addition to both the "For Your Meatheart" and "Our Meatless Love" Dinner-for-two Packages, add on a bottle of an exceptional champagne (at an exceptional price): Nominé Renard Brut Rosé Champagne
A smoky hint of roasted almond and a touch of bacon imparts a savory accent to this firm, well-knit rosé. The fine bead carries subtle flavors of macerated plum, whole-grain toast and lemon zest. 90 points, Wine Spectator
"Grower" Champagne accounts for just 25% of champagne production and means these family-owned, Premier Cru status (or higher) wineries own their own vineyards and produce their own fruit (as opposed to buying up bulk juice like the big champagne houses).
This bottle's producer--Nominé Renard--is one of only 28 grower champagnes included in a boutique, elite group of growers known as “Les Club Tresor de Champagne” or The Treasure Club. This is a strictly selective group of growers created in 1971 with exceptionally high self-imposed standards of vini-viticulture including more sustainable growing practices, smaller yields, wines must pass blind tasting tests, and more.

Thanksgiving Wines from the Goose
Order deeply discounted Thanksgiving Wines perfectly paired with the Thanksgiving Feast!
Thanksgiving Red
$17.25 if pre-ordered online (regularly $20)
Domaine Roche Cairanne Côtes-du-Rhône-Villages 2011
90 points Wine Spectator
Delivers a plush feel, with plum and raspberry fruit, layered with hoisin sauce, red licorice, and black tea notes. The long, suave finish shows buried grip. ~ Wine Spectator
An up and coming talent in the village of Cairanne, young Romain Roche is a vigneron to watch! With the help of super star consultant Philippe Cambie, he is fashioning incredible wines. His 2011 Cairanne is a prime example: a blend of 70% Grenache and 20% Syrah that’s aged 80% in tank, and 20% in barrique, it delivers a brilliant bouquet of black raspberries, licorice, white chocolate, and lead pencil shavings to go with a medium to full-bodied, decadently styled palate. More fresh and elegant than you would expect given the ripeness and intensity on the nose, it never seems heavy or cumbersome and has solid length on the finish. Impressive all around. ~ Rhone Report
Thanksgiving Sparkling Rosé
$14.75 if pre-ordered online (regularly $17.50)
Villa Wolf Pinot Noir Rosé 2013
The Pfalz is a very warm and sunny region, often called the “Tuscany of Germany" where pinot noir thirves.Light and refreshing with deliciously bright berry and fruit flavors and a clean, zippy finish, it’s perfect for holiday meals, especially when ham is involved. But this sparkling sip is also the ideal pour for the busy cook in the kitchen and the crowd gathering over a cheese and charcuterie platter.
Founded in 1756, the J.L. Wolf estate (now called Villa Wolf) was a successful and highly regarded winery for more than two centuries. In the latter years of the 20th Century, however, the estate languished until Ernst Loosen, of the famed Dr. Loosen estate, took over the vineyards and rehabilitated the exceptional vines. Today the vineyards are tended by a talented and dedicated young couple who met while working at Dr. Loosen. Patrick Moellendorf and Sumi Gebauer have brought renewed energy and focus to the viticulture and winemaking at Villa Wolf.

It's gonna be a delicious Thanksgiving!
