A rosé out of the norm of the season, with dense fruit, nice structure and excellent balance and complexity. Indigenous yeasts, direct pressure, no contact of the juice with the skins and fermentation in stainless steel tanks with temperature control in combination with the strictly selected fruit from the biodynamically certified vineyards of the...
70% Garnacha Tintorera, also known as Alicante Bouschet and 30% from Moravia Agria a grape with low alcohol and high acidity are the blend of Albahra which means small sea. The two varieties are vinified separately in cement tanks with Garnacha undergoing whole-bunch fermentation while maturation is in cement for Garnacha and in neutral barriques for...
A landmark wine that proves the strength and stubbornness of Iliana, who despite the difficulties due to the fire that destroyed a large part of her old vineyards, managed to "enchant" us again with her new rosé. In a blessed place where old goblets abound, Iliana turned to the great variety of Crete, Liatiko, in a rosé vinification that raises the bar....
The Jura region remains faithful to its traditions, producing wines that delight connoisseurs, with their oxidative character being their main feature. Tissot's Savagnin Sous Voilé is an extremely interesting wine, with mild oxidation, aged for 32 months in 228-liter barrels without complete filling and always with Tissot's philosophy of minimal...
Tight flesh, wonderfully athletic but without overdoing it. Next to the classic Chablis rigour, a silky, dense sensation is added, probably as a result of the wine's stay with the lees for several months. It is ripe but not with an intensely creamy and boringly buttery texture. Juicy citrus balances the mineral side of the wine and blends harmoniously...

On the palate there is the classic - a la Chablis - rigour but with dense texture and depth of fruit, in a yin-yang type of interconnection that leads to perfect balance. The tensions on the palate testify to...
Le Prieuré de Saint-Céols was founded just 20 years ago on the remains of an old monastic convent of Benedictine monks of the 13th century by Pierre Jacolin. In 2020, the baton was passed on to Marie and Joseph de Maistre who took over the estate and cultivate it with organic farming principles and great care. For 15 years, no herbicides have ever been...
If Calderara Sottana is the most complete cru of the Etna volcano, then the two pre-phylloxera vines contained within it, covering no more than 8 acres, are the quintessence of its character. The label bears the name of the winegrower who tended these vines for years and began bottling them separately for the first time in 2006. The perfection in the...
Like a hand with a glove, the unmistakable duo of Campania's varieties works its magic in the Nemea region, giving an unexpectedly excellent version of sparkling wine using the traditional method. The grapes are harvested early, by hand, having retained their acidity levels while having had time to develop their aromas. 24 months of ageing on fine lees...
