Polaner Selections

In this bustling, dynamic and ever-changing wine market, our company mission has been to stay ahead of the curve and to keep our customers' palates interested and challenged. In each case, we look for wines in all price points that are not only of exceptional quality and value, but hopefully will also open the mind to a new tasting experience. These include not only great "reference point" producers (Giacomo Conterno, Jacques Selosse, Littorai), but also wines made from lesser-known indigenous varietals (Biancolella, Listan Negro, Poulsard) and wine regions (Ribeira Sacra, Bairrada, Donnas). Many of our producers employ organic and/or biodynamic farming both as a gesture of responsibility to the earth we all live in as well as for the qualitative benefits to the wines they produce. Some of these producers are also part of the so-called "Natural Wine" movement, but are always fastidious that their Natural techniques don't overwhelm the underlying terroirs or the qualitative soundness of the wines they produce. We also comb the wine world to discover and launch tiny, up-and-coming producers, such as Pierre Duroche, Margherita-Otto and Cruse Wine Co. Lastly, we have made it a foremost goal to give ample focus to some of the finest examples of traditional-style producers, such as Giuseppe Mascarello and Confuron-Cotedidot. These gorgeous wines, characterized by their elegance and purity, represent an almost “lost art,” and are so often forgotten and overshadowed by today’s bigger, flashier modern wines.
