Stolpman’s Hedonistic “Wow” Factor
Roussanne might be the richest, most decadent white grape in
the world of wine. Ripe fruit intensity, and a coating, thick
mid-palate deliver a hedonistic “wow” factor not often found in
white wines.
Because Roussanne spends months ripening on the vine, slowly
developing its signature flavor concentration, the tart acidity of
the grape often dwindles by harvest time. At Stolpman, we decid-
ed zesty Chardonnay would be the perfect blending complement.
The Chardonnay lends a structured back-bone that refreshes the
palate once the Roussanne’s up-front wave of flavor ebbs.
Like Santa Barbara’s most famous delicacy, urchin harvested off
our Channel Islands, the Uni white wine combines decadent
richness with delicate precision. We originally created Uni in 2016
as an exclusive for the Uchi Sushi Group out of Austin, Texas. Word
quickly got out about the wine, with the help of SommTV’s promo-
tion of Uni alongside the release of the Delicacy film. Today, Uni
can be enjoyed throughout the US, Japan, and Europe.
Healthy late season rains pushed back bud-break and the growing season
by 3-4 weeks. We escaped the summer without any extreme heat events
that would have accelerated ripening. Slow, even ripening led into a
strategic, well-spaced harvest in which Chardonnay hit ideal high-acid
ripeness in late September, and not atypically, we picked the Roussanne
November 8-10.
Despite the minority share of Roussanne, the grape shows itself
dominantly in the dark golden hue of the blend. On the nose, the
Roussanne’s deep concentration continues its march of honey suckle
and golden pineapple. The Chardonnay comes through with an
appealing, joyful brightness on the palate. The two marry into yellow
mango flesh. Coating gourmet smoothie texture already envelopes any
note of oak toast. Pear and apple through to kumquat on the finish.

Shipping & Delivery Policy

Our Shipping & Delivery Policy

Yiannis Wine ships orders through FedEx. The shipping fees vary depending on where in the U.S your shipment is going. For any questions or concerns regarding shipment pricing and restrictions please feel free to contact us directly. We are able to ship to all but the following states: Utah, South Dakota, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Mississippi, Kentucky, Delaware, Rhode Island, and Massachusetts. With some of these states, for example Alabama, we are able to ship to an ABC store nearest to you.

It is rare to have a shipment damaged during shipping, however, in the event you do receive a damaged delivery, please let us know. We will need pictures and proof of damage so that we can resolve your claim. Damaged claims will not be accepted without proof. We will replace the wine or issue a credit. The choice is yours!

Deliveries that contain alcohol REQUIRE AN ADULT SIGNATURE. You must be 21 or older to purchase and accept said deliveries.

We cannot ship to PO Boxes, APO/FPO addresses, or internationally.

Shipping fees are not refundable under any circumstances.

There is an additional charge to re-route orders already in transit.

Some items are removed from original packaging, and placed in protective shipping containers to ensure safe delivery.

While most orders are shipped the day they are placed. The demand for limited supplies will occasionally deplete our stock of a paticular product, in this case it will generally take an additional 1 - 2 business days to receive the product and fufill the order.

Although it is rare, if there was a packing error, we would like to resolve it for you! In the event that we shipped an incorrect item, we may ask you to hold on to those items and the exsisting packaging so that we can arrange for a return pick up. If you find that items are missing from your order, we are happy to assist you in reshipping the missing items or processing a credit for the missing item/items. We will provide a return label for incorrect items and credit will be processd upon the return of the item to the warehouse. Reshipment of the correct items will be at no extra charge.

Occasionally a chosen vintage of a wine may sell out or be replaced by a new release after your order is placed. Bottles of wine that are under $20, will not hold up an order and we will simply automatically substitute the wine with the comparable vintage. Please be assured that we will only substitute with a vintage for the same wine. Wine that is valued more than $20 per bottle, we will attempt to contact the customer. After two attempts, the available vintage will be automatically shipped out. (The return policy of $15 return shipping costs, and 15% restocking fee will be enforced.)

Yiannis Wine will not be held liable for damages to orders due to weather conditions during shipping. Potential exposure to extreme heat or cold may damage items during shipping. As we can not be held responsible for products damaged due to weather, we suggest you choose FedEx Express to ship your items and/or add ice packs to your order (during extreme heat) to help prevent damages. We can also place your orders on weather hold until weather conditions improve. Wine is usually fine if it is exposed to some heat (as that is the way wine is made.....Heated so the yeast is activated). If your wine is warm, please place them in a cool, dark room so the wine can "settle."

Most returns will be accepted, but ALL bottles must be returned to get credit. A half bottle or empty bottle of something that did not taste GOOD is fine to return, but the customer will not receive full credit if the bottle is not included.

Sometimes an order is returned to our warehouse after several delivery attempts at the address provided by the customer. We are happy to reship the order however, reshipment fees will apply. Please contact us and we will assist you with the reshipment arrangements.

We are happy to assist with any returns for items purchased that you no longer want or need. Please let us know and we will arrange for the return and issue a credit or refund for your returned items, less the return shipping and handling charges.

We offer some of the most diverse wines in the business, and we are happy to help you choose wines and provide recommendations by our sommeliers if you desire. Everyone has different tastes and Yiannis Wine will not be held responsible for customer choice. While ratings, testimonials, and reviews may influence your decision, the ultimate judgement is yours.
