At The Wine Market, we believe every bottle has a story; and every Wednesday is an opportunity to tell one. Our Weekly Wine Spotlights are your midweek invitation to explore something new, exciting, and expertly curated.
We feature a different winery every Wednesday, uncorking standout selections that range from limited-production gems to bottles from celebrated and up-and-coming regions around the world.
March is shaping up to be an especially dynamic month, showcasing innovation, heritage, and bold winemaking styles. Whether you're looking to expand your palate, discover a new favorite producer, or simply make your Wednesdays more delicious, our March lineup has something for everyone.
Here’s what we’re pouring this month:
March 4: Rethinking Boxed Wine with GRATSI
We’re kicking off the month with a fresh take on an often-overlooked category: boxed wine. GRATSI is leading a quiet revolution in the wine world by proving that sustainability and quality can go hand in hand.
Founded with a commitment to transparency and environmental responsibility, GRATSI produces organic, additive-free wines packaged in eco-friendly boxes.
These wines are crafted in Italy and designed for modern wine lovers who want great taste without unnecessary extras. The box format keeps the wine fresh longer (up to four weeks after opening) and significantly reduces carbon emissions compared to traditional glass bottles.
Don’t let the packaging fool you. Inside, you’ll find beautifully balanced wines that are vibrant, approachable, and food-friendly. If you’ve been curious about premium boxed wine, this spotlight is your perfect opportunity to taste the difference for yourself.
March 11: Joseph Phelps, A Napa Valley Icon
Our second spotlight of the month turns to a true legend: Joseph Phelps Vineyards. Established in 1973, Joseph Phelps helped define Napa Valley’s reputation for world-class Cabernet Sauvignon and Bordeaux-style blends.
The winery is perhaps best known for its flagship wine, Insignia, one of California’s first proprietary red blends. Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, Insignia and the winery’s other offerings showcase the depth, structure, and elegance that have made Napa Valley a global benchmark for fine wine.
Joseph Phelps embodies tradition, innovation, and a relentless pursuit of quality. During this spotlight, you’ll experience wines perfect for collectors, celebratory dinners, or anyone who appreciates the artistry of exceptional winemaking.
March 18: Mezzacorona Ventessa Takes Us to Italy
Mid-month, we head to Italy with Mezzacorona Ventessa, a producer rooted in the Trentino region at the foothills of the Dolomites. Mezzacorona has long been celebrated for combining centuries-old winemaking traditions with cutting-edge technology and sustainable vineyard practices.
The Ventessa line highlights expressive varietals that showcase the unique alpine terroir of northern Italy. Expect wines with vibrant aromatics, crisp acidity, and remarkable versatility at the table. From refreshing whites to structured reds, these selections reflect the elegance and freshness that make Italian wines perennial favorites.
This spotlight is perfect for anyone who loves Old World character with a modern twist. If you’re planning a pasta night (or simply dreaming of an Italian getaway) these wines will transport you there with every sip.
March 25: The Bold, Artistic, and Unforgettable Orin Swift
We’re closing out March with a winery that makes as much of a visual statement as it does a sensory one: Orin Swift Cellars.
Founded by winemaker Dave Phinney, Orin Swift is known for its striking label art and unapologetically bold wines. Sourcing fruit from top vineyards across California, Orin Swift creates powerful blends and varietal wines that are rich, layered, and intensely expressive.
From the plush texture of their reds to the depth of flavor packed into each bottle, Orin Swift wines are designed to captivate. These are wines that spark conversation…perfect for dinner parties, special occasions, or when you simply want something memorable in your glass.
If you enjoy wines that push boundaries while maintaining balance and craftsmanship, you won’t want to miss this final March spotlight.
