Suzan Wenzel • December 5, 2020
bayleaf Signature Olive Oil and Ritrovo Selections Aged Balsamic Vinegar is a perfect pair of pantry provisions. Purchase a set for your favorite home chef or treat yourself. (Note that they are tucked into two slots of a six-slot bayleaf wine bag which leaves four slots for some fine Italian wine. Maybe a Nebbiolo? A Barbera? Some Prosecco, perhaps?)

bayleaf Signature Olive Oil, with its grassy-fruity aroma and balanced fruit-herb flavor, is a prized powerhouse no kitchen should be without. This single source olive oil is produced and packaged by the Trampetti farm in Umbria, one of Italy's most prestigious olive oil regions. It is flavorsome and versatile enough for dipping, drizzling, baking, and blending which is why we proudly profess it worthy of carrying the bayleaf name. In addition to being delicious, olive oil is rich in antioxidants (fight the free radicals!) and contains loads of healthy monounsaturated fats (here’s to your heart!).
Ritrovo Selections Aged Balsamic Vinegar is the other half of this dynamic duo. Dense and delightful, it is aged in French Allier oak barrels for six years and then expertly reduced. The finished product has the flavor profile of a traditional 25-year aged balsamic (without the wait). Lambrusco and Trebbiano grapes give this vinegar a deep, rich flavor with a clean, delicate finish that is pure perfection on a caprese salad, fresh buratta, grilled chicken breasts, roasted veggies, strawberries, and so much more.

Olive oil has been part of Mediterranean life for thousands of years. It's more than a cooking fat—it's culture, health, and history in a bottle. As Americans we've been a bit slow to catch on...
We’ve just received word that prices will increase on May 1, so we’re putting together one last order at the current pricing. This is your chance to scoop up any legacy favorites you’ve been eyeing—or discover something new in their gorgeous 2025 catalog (you can browse it here ).
Join us for a special seated tasting on Thursday, May 15 from 5–7 PM with Clarke Boehling of Rosenthal Wine Merchant While visiting trade accounts in the area, Clarke has carved out time to lead this intimate tasting—and we’re thrilled to host him.

Spring Cleaning?
Really there is so much to know.
Fall Wine Extravaganza Join us for an afternoon of delicious wines! Unlike our tastings of the past, this will be more like what we call a "trade" tasting. Each rep will be stationed at a table with 4 of their wines - a mix of chilled whites/roses and reds. You are welcome to mingle, pose questions to the reps, bounce back and forth and taste at your own pace. We'll provide solo cups to encourage you to pace yourself and spit. We'll have staff passing bites of food to pair. We'll be joined by Eric, Jesse and Ken in the Coupeville Rec Hall. This will give us all plenty of room to spread out. There will be discounts offered, lots of conversations had and as much education as you would like. This is a standing, social tasting. Wine club members enjoy discounted ticket pricing as well as deeper discounts on orders at the event. Join one of our wine clubs before the event to take advantage of these extra discounts. You don't want to miss this one! A great opportunity to taste before you buy, restock your wine rack and choose a few special bottles for the upcoming holiday season. Saturday 29 October 3 - 5 Coupeville Rec Hall tickets are required Non-wine Club member Wine Club member
