Years ago, I was seated with six or more Master Sommeliers for dinner in California. This was quite a high concentration of Master Somms, given that there are only 279 in the world! The moment was tense with anticipation when the server brought over the wine list. What wines do Master Sommeliers order? It turns out they zero in on great wines that are—get this—very inexpensive! So, go ahead and savor the Master Sommelier-approved red wine currently in rotation.
Discovering incredible value-driven wines is important in a sea of overpriced offerings. Here we present you with a rotating selection that won't break the budget. You don't need to spend a fortune to get an exceptional glass here at Milly's. Just ask your server what's being poured. If you prefer a Happy Hour White, we have that too.
A lady is at Milly's alone. I ask, 'So, how do you like your wine?' She replies, 'earthy.' I press, 'How earthy?' She answers, 'filthy.' Then—no joke—I'm in literal shock when she pauses and says, 'I want it to hurt me.' Truth be told, I fell for her dirty wine desire right then and there. So I brought her a glass of what we now call The Italian Stallion—a light-bodied, sexy dirtball of a wine.
Two thrilling half glasses of red wine are placed before you. Simply put, one is a Burgundy and one is not. Correctly identify the 'Ron Burgundy,' and you may find yourself in a glass case of emotion! Honestly, Burgundy can sometimes disappoint. But here, you're guaranteed to experience a stunning Burgundy alongside another rockin' Pinot Noir. Can you correctly identify the Ron Burgundy?
Two half glasses of Rosé are set before you— one is French and one is not. While seemingly every wine-producing region in the world makes rosé, the benchmark is that fresh watermelon wonderfulness that hails only from Provence. There's an appetite for destruction when it comes to beating them out. Can you spot the Frenchie, and the one gunning for it?
Orange wine reigns as the hottest wine style among cool drinkers. But have you discovered the latest rage, Pét-Nat? Simply put, Pét-Nat is a sparkling wine made in a style that predates Champagne. Try 'em both and see what all the kids are into these days. We receive Orange wines and Pét-Nats weekly for consideration, and we offer the best discoveries of both here.

One of the most intriguing wines from France is unapologetically pink, slightly sweet, and bubbly. This wine hails not from a town or even a small village, but from the tiniest of hamlets in the south of France. Typically enjoyed as an aperitif, it also pairs beautifully with our array of Dessert Boards and Crème Brûlée.
Made from the native grape Xinomavro, this one sure is Greek to me—and probably to you too! But hey, the producer, Kir-Yianni, has crafted this native variety into one of the most aromatic and delicious wines around. Its bright wild strawberry notes suggest sweetness, but it finishes completely dry and balanced.
Look out — this wine list is on fire! Three half flutes are placed before you. One is Prosecco, one is a rotating sparkling wine from Europe, and the last is the real deal—true Champagne. Your task is to identify all three, and if you succeed, you'll be a Champ-ion! You know what they say, 'No 'pagne, no gain!'
Dry, refreshing, and bursting with energy! The bubbles release aromas of pear, apple, and peach. On the palate, it offers a hint of spice and a crisp sensation. A fun and lively Prosecco that's sure to kick off any occasion right.

Are you ready for the most challenging wine pairing yet? Two exceptional dry white wines from the least likely places are set before you. Can you correctly identify where they're from? And with that… good frekkin' luck! (Note: if you correctly identify their origins blind, we'll call you a Sommelier—and might even ask for your Venmo to send you a reward for your wine wizardry.) Want to make it a 50/50 shot? Just ask your server to reveal the two locations, and then guess which is which.
The ultra-popular New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc has a new dance challenger. Enter the Tarantella, a fast-paced, traditional Italian dance, and a Sauvy B from Northern Italy that moves just as quickly. This pairing is an effort to introduce Kiwi fanatics to the broader spectrum of clean, crisp white wines. The New Zealand love affair runs deep, but even lifelong partners can benefit from learning a few new steps…and maybe flirting with a new elixir.
In 1976, wine history got turned upside down. A blind tasting in Paris—later dubbed the judgement of Paris—pitted American wines against their French counterparts and shocked the world when the results were revealed: in both the red and white categories, the Americans came out on top! Now, nearly 50 years later, we're bringing the spirit of this legendary showdown to your glass here at Milly's. Two rotating wines from France and California are here for you to judge. Can you tell which is which? And more importantly… which wine will you crown superior?

Before you are an American Zinfandel and an Italian Primitivo. DNA has verified that Primitivo and Zinfandel are, in fact, the same varietal. But when it comes to taste, the differences are striking. American Zinfandel tends to have brighter fruit tones, while Primitivo typically leans more earthy. Think you can tell which is which?

Rioja is Spain's most iconic wine region, known for reds that shine with age. Here, we're showcasing the two extremes: a younger Crianza and the granddaddy of them all—a 2016 Gran Reserva from Marqués de Riscal. Most restaurants wouldn't dare serve a Gran Reserva by the glass due to the price, but at Milly's, you can experience it alongside its increasingly popular younger cousin. So, is the trend of younger Riojas justified, or is Tempranillo simply better with age?
Lúcia Ferreira makes wine in Portugal's Dão region. Her brother, Filipe, produces wine just 50 miles away in the neighboring Douro region. Here, we present two of their wines, both of which are red blends comprised of 60% Touriga Nacional. Lúcia's wine is blended exclusively with Tinta Roriz, while Filipe adds additional Touriga into the mix. Similar on paper, but entirely different in the glass. So whose wine is winning this sibling rivalry, and who is charging more? It's a real Family Feud!
Let's start with the Aussie. We're pouring the acclaimed Penfolds Bin 389 Cabernet–Shiraz blend, widely regarded as one of the best wines in all of Aus! Steakhouses are sure to demand two-plus hundo for this bottle—yikes! But relax, you're at Milly's. Every week, we're introduced to an impressive selection of dank, fresh, and legit California reds. So much so that we're rotating in the latest and greatest to see whether the Thunder from Down Under always cracks the loudest… or is the California a real ripper of a wine?
Wineries love to boast about volcanic soil, but the term is often stretched too far. Here, however, we present two wines that are genuinely rooted in volcanic earth. The first, Los Bermejos, comes from the Canary Islands, where centuries-old eruptions left the island blanketed in lava. Next, we travel to Sicily, where repeated eruptions have created rich volcanic terrain that vines continue to flourish in. Volcano wines provide a tinderbox of enjoyment—typically providing a unique saline-mineral edge to their bright, earthy red fruit profiles.
What a fantastic red wine! Lambrusco is the grape, and refreshment is the game. Served chilled, it's frizzante (slightly sparkling) and finishes with just the right amount of light sweetness. Embrace this wine!

Two French white wines are placed before you. One hails from the renowned region of Sancerre. This French region has produced sought-after white wines for over a thousand years! But there's a challenger looking to give Sancerre a run for its money: Jacques Dumont's Sauvignon Blanc from just outside Sancerre, in the Loire Valley. Can you identify the true Sancerre? Is the other a worthy competitor at half the price?
It's sweet, and it's freaking out-of-this-world awesome! Super peachy, with a frizzante (slightly sparkling) texture that keeps it light and ultra-refreshing. Milly's rotates and features the best Moscatos on the market today. It's candy in a glass!
It's a long drive—or an expensive flight—to get to the ocean! But order a glass of Big Salt and be instantly teleported to the beach. This dry, unoaked wine has a saline or sea spray quality to it. A real vacation in a glass!
