Donnhoff Estate Riesling 2017
A off-dry Riesling wine, very typical of our wine estate. Wonderfully fresh and well defined, elegant with a tingling minerality. A delicious wine for every day with moderate alcohol and very soothing acidity.
“A PERFECT VINTAGE OF THE BEST WINE VALUE IN THE ENTIRE DAMN WORLD, any color, any grape, any country, any price-point. This year for the first time it also contains fruit from a new acquisition, a hectare in the (Niederhäuser) Klamm (see also Jakob Schneider; the site is a mélange of Rotliegend and weathered porphyry, and has both steep and flat sections.)” Terry Theise

Finca Torremilanos Los Cantos Ribera del Duero
95% Tempranillo and 5% Merlot from biodynamically farmed vineyards. 5 different parcels distinguished by the presence of round river stones (“cantos”) contributed grapes to the blend with an average age of the vines being 35 years. Parcels were chosen based on aromatic and structural traits. It is aged for sixteen months in French oak barrels.
"A velvety texture carries bright flavors of cherry, currant and kirsch in this lively red. Vanilla and candied orange notes give this an impression of sweetness, while bright acidity keeps this fresh. Focused and deep. Tempranillo and Merlot. Drink now through 2028."- WS

Joseph Swan Pinot Noir Cuvee Trois
The first vintage of Joseph Swan Pinot Noir was 1973 and was produced with consultation from the legendary Andre Tchelistcheff who was a friend of Joe Swan's. At its core is cherry and red apple with hints of spice and a touch of bramble. In the mouth, it bursts with juicy fruit, balanced by 25% new oak. Long, rich and balanced finish. Like all the Cuvee de Trois blends, the emphasis is on a wine that drinks well upon release but is also capable of rewarding some cellaring.

La Spinetta Barbera d'Asti Ca Di Pian
La Spinetta Barbera Ca di Pian comes from younger vine Barbera grown in two sites: Castagnole and Costigliole where the Bionzo vineyard is located. The vineyards together are about 23 hectares. The vines are 6-20 years old and grow on calcareous soil at 300 meters above sea level, at a southern exposure. Harvest usually happens in the last week September to early October, after which time, the grapes are fermented in rotofermenters for 6 to 7 days. The wine then ages for 12 months in a mix of new and old, medium toasted, French oak barrique. Malolactic fermentation takes place in the barrique.
"A tasty, entry-level wine, the 2013 Barbera d’Asti Ca’ di Pian is juicy and flamboyant from the very first taste. Blackberry jam, crème de cassis, chocolate, violets, lavender and sweet spice meld together in a deep, unctuous wine to drink now and over the next few years. This is a screaming value from La Spinetta.”- James Suckling

La Spinetta Moscato d'Asti
The Rivetti family story begins in the 1890s, when Giovanni Rivetti, left Piedmont for Argentina. Like many Italians then, he dreamed of returning rich man, perhaps even one day able to make great wine in his homeland. He never did, though his son, Giuseppe “Pin” did. Pin married Lidia, bought vineyards and began to make wine. Robert Parker has called Giorgio Rivetti the hottest winemaker in Italy, saying "Everything Rivetti has touched recently seems to have turned to magic."
This light dessert wine offers sweet and sexy aromas of dried apricots and crisp pineapple. It surprises with its remarkable freshness and brilliant fruit flavors, bright acidity and a zingy finish. Outstanding balance and a light sparkle make this traditionally dessert wine also an appropriate choice for an aperitif or a refreshing splash with brunch.

La Spinetta Rivetti Starderi
After the initial "bad investment" and the recovery of Barbera in the Gallina vineyard, the Rivettis continued to purchase additional important vineyard sites. In 1996, a year after the purchase of Gallina, the family acquired six and a half hectares on the hillside just behind Gallina, in the Cru vineyard known as Starderi. This time, however, they made sure that the vineyard was planted exclusively with Nebbiolo.
Although the geographical details of Starderi are nearly identical to those of Gallina (calcareous soil, 50+ year old vines, south facing and the same altitude) the fruit and resulting wine is quite different. Starderi is much more powerful than Gallina and can easily be mistaken for a Barolo. What Gallina offers in elegance, Starderi presents in power and length. Though we aren't quite sure why the two vineyards are so different, a slight difference in microclimate is likely responsabile. In fact, the vineyards are located in two different valleys; Gallina is situated in a much wider valley than Starderi.
