The Incomparable Quintarelli: New Releases of Primofiore and Rosso del Bepi

The Incomparable Quintarelli: New Releases of Primofiore and Rosso del Bepi

The late, great Giuseppe Quintarelli was a staunch traditionalist, farming and making his wines in the old, unhurried style, including drying grapes for his Amarone and then aging the wines for as long as necessary. But he was "radical" too! In addition to working with regional grapes like Corvina and Rondinella, Quintarelli showed that Bordeaux varieties could also make incredible — and quintessentially Veneto — wines.

Col d'Orcia's Stunning Sangiovese Has Everything We Need (And More)

Col d'Orcia's Stunning Sangiovese Has Everything We Need (And More)

Col d’Orcia really has it all. Nestled in the beautiful UNSECO-protected Val d’Orcia in the shadow of mount Amiata, this estate calls itself an ‘organic island’, where olives, tobacco, grapes, wheat, and other crops are grown not just organically but with biodynamic practices added. It’s also one of the oldest Brunello di Montalcino producers, and home to some of the choicest terroir in the region.

Freshness, Opulence, Elegance: Vacheron 2022 Sancerre in 3 Words

Freshness, Opulence, Elegance: Vacheron 2022 Sancerre in 3 Words

To find Domaine Vacheron's cellars in the middle of the ancient town of Sancerre you'll first have to get lost in its winding streets. Down one alley, then another shortcut, your phone loses its signal, and you find yourself asking old ladies on their way home from church for directions. But when you get there you'll feel like you've made it to the very heart of Sancerre, and when you taste the wines, you'll feel you're getting to know its soul.

A Fresh Vintage of Foillard's Delightful Beaujolais-Villages

A Provençal Rosé Icon Returns: Tempier's 2022 Bandol Rosé

A Provençal Rosé Icon Returns: Tempier's 2022 Bandol Rosé

Tempier Rosé makes the list of many wine lovers' memorable "firsts" — perhaps it was your first taste of the Kermit Lynch porfolio, or your first taste of serious, elegant rosé. Long before rows and rows of rosé were filling American shelves every summer, Domaine Tempier was bottling its pale pink Provençal wine for a rapt, albeit local, audience.

Enderle & Moll's World-Class, Status Quo-Challenging Pinot Noir

Enderle & Moll's World-Class, Status Quo-Challenging Pinot Noir

Manfred Enderle and Florian Moll are certainly two of Germany's best winemakers, but their path to greatness hasn't been straightforward. When they began their domaine, in 2007, everything they did flew against conventional German wine wisdom. They prized location and vine age over ripeness, neutral oak over new, and subtlety over flash. They work with some of Baden's oldest Pinot Noir vines, and everything is farmed organically and biodynamically.

Paitin's Starda Nebbiolo: Basically Barbaresco, At A Fraction of the Price

Paitin's Starda Nebbiolo: Basically Barbaresco, At A Fraction of the Price

Paitin is one of a handful of traditionalist producers that specializes in the vineyards of Barbaresco located in the village of Neive. There, they have vines, now over 40 years old, planted in a Cru called Bricco di Neive. They can legally produce Barbaresco from these vines, and given the age of the vines, this is exactly what most producers would do. But Paitin dedicates this plot to making straight Nebbiolo.

Blue Slate, in a Bottle: Stein's 2022 Blauschiefer Dry Riesling

Blue Slate, in a Bottle: Stein's 2022 Blauschiefer Dry Riesling

Ulli Stein is a legend. For decades, this Mosel winemaker has been pushing every boundary he can find, but there’s a special place in our hearts for his most traditional Rieslings, wines that deftly show off the Mosel’s trademark slate soils. And that’s just what we have for you today — Blauschiefer, sourced from 75+ year old vines, mostly ungrafted, from the 1er cru vineyard of St. Aldegunder Himmelreich.
