On Monday, February 24, we welcome Michael Schmelzer, enologist and viticulturist for Monte Bernardi for a masterclass featuring their biodynamically farmed Chianti Classico wines. Though Monte Bernardi's first commercial estate-bottled wines were produced in 1992, the estate's history dates back to the eleventh century.

In 2003, the Schmelzer family acquired the property, dedicating themselves to revitalizing the vineyards, winery, and villa, shaping Monte Bernardi into the renowned estate it is today. They were joined in 2017 by Sara and Henry Bedford, and acquired the Sala farm in Panzano. Today, Monte Bernardi spans over 70 hectares, including 22 hectares of organically farmed vineyards.

Michael Schmelzer, the estate’s viticulturist and oenologist, relocated to Panzano in 2003, bringing expertise from his winemaking studies in Australia.
The estate follows organic and biodynamic farming principles, respecting the land and embracing time-honored viticultural practices. Since 2004, the vineyards have been farmed without synthetic inputs, and the wines are crafted without modern additives, fining, or filtration. 

Seating is very limited for this exclusive seminar. The cost of this seminar is $30 and a $20 credit at the store will be extended to each guest for a future purchase. We hope you can join us  on Monday, February 24 at 6pm on the mezzanine for this very special event.

A Mediterranean Paradise and its Emerging Talent: Mallorca's Cati Ribot

Not too far away from buzzy Ibiza, the Spanish island of Mallorca is home to one of Spain’s most dynamic young winemaker, Cati Ribot. Cati’s father planted international grapes like Chardonnay and Cabernet (it was, after all, the ‘90s). But after a stint working as a somm in Barcelona, and getting the chance to taste wines from all over the world, Cati realized the potential of her small Mediterranean island and its unique indigenous varieties. And so, they said adios to the French varieties and began planting varieties like Escursac, the local Malvasía de Banyalbufar, Girò Ros and Prensal Blanc.

Picture-Perfect Terroir: Two Single-Vineyard Rossese from Liguria

Regions like Burgundy and the Mosel are by-words for terroir. Part of the thrill of discovering those regions is exploring the subtle shifts in a wine that tiny changes in soil, slope, and exposure can make. But Burgundy and the Mosel don’t have a monopoly on that sort of terroir magic, as Giovanna Maccario’s two Rossese wines prove.
