Another Back-Vintage Beauty: 2017 Fiano from Volcanic Terroir

Another Back-Vintage Beauty: 2017 Fiano from Volcanic Terroir

It’s hard to beat the simple pleasure of a regionally expressive, complex Italian white with just a little bit of age. This is where the Fiano grape can really shine, its natural richness balancing the volcanic tension of its birthplace. We have an absolutely delicious one for you today, grown on volcanic tufo soils in the commune of Montefredane in Avellino.

Austria's Hidden Red Gem: Fresh & Beautiful Blaufränkisch from Nittnaus

Austria's Hidden Red Gem: Fresh & Beautiful Blaufränkisch from Nittnaus

Austria may be known for Grüner Veltliners and Rieslings, but Blaufränkisch is its unsung hero grape. French wine lovers can find Blau analogs in the likes of Gamay, Cabernet Franc, Syrah, Mourvèdre…the list goes on. Wines made from Blaufränkisch can be light and juicy, rich and spicy, deep and savory, a kaleidoscope of flavors and textures.

Summer's Perfect Red: Chillable Pineau d'Aunis, A Loire Hidden Gem

Summer's Perfect Red: Chillable Pineau d'Aunis, A Loire Hidden Gem

Everyone has their “a-ha!” moment wine. For the luckiest among us, it’s the first sip of great Nebbiolo or Burgundy. For one member of the Flatiron Wines team, though, it was a most obscure grape — Pineau d’Aunis. Pineau in the running for the perfect summer wine, a red that’s chillable and punchy, yet markedly different and more complex than the average glou glou offerings at your local wine bar.

Castillo de Viñas Rosado: A Traditional Style, Revived (à la López)

Castillo de Viñas Rosado: A Traditional Style, Revived (à la López)

Is this a stand-in for López? No, it is not. But it is a distinct expression emerging from the same tradition, one with the kind of personal twist that makes it even more crushable on a hot summer day. And better yet, it costs a fraction of what Lopez sells for. You'll definitely want to try this.

I Pentri's Flora — The Perfect Summer Wine to Go With Everything

One of the best sources for fine, fascinating white wines is southern Italy; in spite of the unceasing sun and the fierce heat, many winemakers are producing wines of great minerality and elegance. One such estate is I Pentri, named after the ancient tribe that once occupied this area of Campania, a few hours’ drive northeast from Naples.

Rosé from Raffault: Joy and Substance

Rosé from Raffault: Joy and Substance

Olga Raffault's most prestigious wine is their red Chinon from the Les Picasses vineyard, an incredibly long-lived, classic expression of limestone terroir through a Cabernet Franc lens. Their most straight-up joyful wine, on the other hand, is their rosé.  2022 was a perfect vintage for this wine.  It's straight-up yummy and you don't need to spend a bunch of time thinking about the wine to enjoy it: it offers plenty of simple pleasures in fruit and freshness.
