Trout Fillet in Caper Sauce, ABC+ by Jose Gourmet, Portugal
- $20.00
Innovative, experimental, and extremely small scale, ABC+ is breathing new life into the world of conservas. As tinned fish gain popularity, giant companies are eager to consolidate, push production, and limit creativity in the name of scalability. Adriano is doing the exact opposite. ABC+ builds on tradition by developing new and elevated recipes preserved in a distinctive round can and expressing worldly sauces spanning the entire globe - think Bravas from Spain, Moqueca from Brazil, Aglio e Olio from Italy, Curry from Southeast Asian cuisines, and the list goes on - paired only with the highest quality seafood coming from the Port of Matosinhos only a few blocks from the cannery.Rich and meaty trout is brought to new heights by a bright and briney sauce bursting with garlic, parsley, and capers. This symphony of flavors tames the hearty fish into a dish that calls for savoring.
Trout is a freshwater fish, well known on the Portuguese menu. ABC+ sources theirs from the Rio Coura, in the north of the country. Rich in minerals, protein, vitamins, and flavor, this heavy hitter is a favorite in any sauce it shares. The Capers sauce is packed first and foremost with fresh, briney capers joined with parsley, onion, garlic, and white pepper. This bright emulsion is sure to liven up any accompaniment it comes in contact with.
SERVING: Center stage on a hearty rice dish in need of some brightness, atop crusty bread with complex and deep cheese, shared among friends with smiles

Cockles in Brine, Espinaler, Spain
- $32.00
FOOD ITEMS are available for SF LOCAL DELIVERY or CURBSIDE PICKUP only.
Espinaler Cockles in Brine, Spain
The Espinaler family started their long line of businesses in the late 1880s, with a small bar in Barcelona, serving wine and snacks. Eventually the Civil War in Spain caught up to them, and after it had passed, they were forced to reinvent themselves. In the 1950s, they introduced Espinaler Sauce to the market, a special blend of top quality vinegar, red pepper, black pepper and carefully selected spices, which with the years has made Espinaler Sauce known everywhere. Their line of premium conservas come directly from the Galician Rias, the coast of Malaga and from the best places of the country, direct to your table.
Plump and luscious, cockles are a dependably delicious clam known for their barb-like foot, their rich, clammy taste, and their firm (but not chewy) texture. Harvested from the rías of Galicia, each clam is hand cleaned of silt and sand to ensure a grit-free, premium experience. In this slightly smaller size, we recommend folding them into angel hair with white wine and capers, or using the brine to make a cream sauce with garlic and shallot for a homemade white clam pizza.
TASTING: briny, meaty, sweet
PAIRING: vodka, chardonnay, dashi
INGREDIENTS: Cockles, Water, Salt

César Florido’s name is synonymous with moscatel. His village of Chipiona, is well adapted to the grape variety and has the best moscatel vineyards in the region.

Cruz del Mar Oloroso spends an average of 12 years in the solera process before being bottled en rama, without fining or filtration.

In addition to the 13.5 hectares in Cuis, Gimonnet owns 11 hectares of chardonnay vines in the grand cru villages of Cramant and Chouilly, plus another hectare in Oger and two in Vertus.

Chacra 'Sin Azufre' Pinot Noir, Patagonia, Argentina 2023
- $63.00
Piero Incisa della Rocchetta, hailing from one of Italy's most renowned winemaking dynasties, ventured far from his roots in Sassicaia to carve out a new legacy in Patagonia's Río Negro region.
In 2004, Piero stumbled upon ancient, ungrafted Pinot Noir vines, setting the stage for a unique chapter in his winemaking journey. He established Bodega Chacra, crafting some of Argentina’s finest Pinot Noir from vineyards planted in 1955, 1945, and 1932. In recent years, he teamed up with Burgundy icon Jean-Marc Roulot, bringing a new level of excellence to Bodega Chacra’s Chardonnay. The results have been nothing short of exceptional.
FROM OUR OCTOBER 2024 BOTTLE CULT NOTES:
Piero Incisa della Rocchetta is no stranger to elite winemaking. He is the grandson of the founder of Tenuta San Guido, the producer of the infamous Super-Tuscan brand Sassicaia in Italy. After a sampling of Patagonian wines in New York, Piero was inspired to launch his own label in the relatively underdeveloped region. In 2004, he founded Bodega Chacra, nestled in the Rio Negro Valley of northern Patagonia. The unique terroir, with alluvial soils composed of limestone, sand, and clay, benefits from the arid, desert climate and crystal-clear air. The valley’s naturally phylloxera-free environment and minimal rainfall create perfect conditions for organic and biodynamic viticulture. Piero's first purchase was a neglected Pinot Noir vineyard planted in 1932, which he restored to its former glory, leading to the expansion of Chacra’s holdings, which now include additional old vine vineyards from 1955 and 1967.
The winemaking at Chacra emphasizes minimal intervention, with native yeast fermentation and aging in a mix of cement vats and Burgundian oak barrels. Piero’s dedication to traditional methods and his passion for the land have resulted in pure, expressive wines that bridge the gap between New and Old World styles. Sin Azufre is Piero's personal, handcrafted project, made without the use of modern science—relying only on intuition and sensory experience. These grapes are harvested from a special section of the Cincuenta y Cinco vineyard (planted in 1955) and fermented spontaneously after 3-5 days of maceration. The wine ages for 11 months in used barriques and 1 month in concrete tanks, resulting in a soft, balanced, and lively wine with pronounced minerality, well-integrated tannins, and universal pairing potential. —Simi Grewal
