There’s no better way to launch your sipping into summer than with bottles from Bodkin Wines and Maison Noir Wines. Featuring fresh takes on classics — including America’s first sparkling Sauvignon Blanc — these two labels were founded with a keen sense of old school winemaking and a passion for transforming it into something new.


Award-winning sommelier André Hueston Mack, who has worked at French Laundry and Per Se, started Maison Noir Wines in 2007. His aim was to produce wines for top New York restaurants where he worked, and we’re lucky to now carry them for you in the Twin Cities. The label’s designs and style are reminiscent of Mack’s love of hip hop, punk, and skateboarding. His expertise in fabulous wines is unmatched, and that knowledge is evident in every bottles.
These wines, both produced by Black winemakers making waves in the industry, are the perfect glass-fillers for summer. The labels’ approach to wine may make light of industry’s traditional snobbery, but their skilled production and passion are no joke. These serious but accessible wines are perfect for everything from celebrations to everyday kickbacks

Bodkin Wines Sparkling Sauvignon Blanc
This bottle has a special claim to fame — it’s America’s first sparkling Sauvignon Blanc. It has a sharp crispness and bubbling acidity, and is named for the battle that inspired Shakespeare’s Henry V.
Maison Noir Wines O.P.P. Other People’s Pinot Noir
