14 Rueda DO The Lorenzo Cachazo family are one of the eight original founders of the Rueda DO and have been producing wine for over 60 years. However until now very little of their wine has made it beyond Spanish borders, as all the production was snapped up by the eager Spanish consumer.

With the combination of stony soils and old vines and the use of modern techniques, they are able to produce a wine made with Verdejo grapes which has surprising vibrancy and freshness demonstrating the best of Rueda.

19 Fiftyrow about

In 2002, beauty industry executive Paul Johnson thought it was time to finally do it. Having owned a large wine store for many years, his goal after the store was sold was to go to the “other side”. The other side was to make wine, and do it before he turned fifty (therefore the name Fiftyrow).

Paul started by reaching out to some friends in the industry he had got to know during the wine store years. He inter- viewed several winemakers and settled on Gary Galleron. Paul had followed Gary over the years from Grace Family to Vineyard 29 and all the great Whitehall Lane wines of the 1990’s. Next he sourced vineyards that he could rely on for years to come.

For the Cabernet, he decided to go with two vineyards that Gary had made great wine with in the past, the Morisoli Vineyard and the Lewelling Vineyard. With everything in place, he then convinced longtime friends the Salant broth- ers to take a stake in the business and as they say, the rest is history. The first vintage was 2005, an incredible first effort. Structure and grace along with a style that made it unique in the world of Napa cabernet. Today, the word is out as Fiftyrow has received accolades’ from many including Robert Parker. The Vineyards

Morisoli Vineyard The Morisoli Vineyard lies in the heart of the Rutherford Appellation, home to the world’s most celebrated Cabernets. Farmed by fourth generation grower Gary Morisoli, this vineyard contains the elusive component of “Rutherford dust” that defines the distinctive Cabernets from this region.

Lewelling Vineyard The vineyards of the historic Lewelling Estate were established in 1864 near the western foothills in St. Helena by pioneer winegrower John Lewelling. Here, the gravelly loam soil and microclimate combine to produce exceptional Cabernets with rich cherry, currant and berry flavors.

We bring you wines from acclaimed vineyards and winemakers at a price that can make these world class wines your “Tuesday wine”. Enjoy!

2011 Anderson Valley

The Anderson Valley climate is cool compared to Napa and Sonoma, with fog in the morning and breezes in the afternoon coming from the nearby Pacific Ocean, but in the summer, temperatures can spike in the afternoon and reach 100° F. Vineyards are planted mostly in the bench lands and hills; the soils are an ec- lectic mix of clay, loam and gravel. Our 2011 Pinot has hints of rose petal, red cherry, black raspberry and anise with medium body and soft tannins.

2010 “The Chemist” Red Blend We combined seven varietals; Grenache, Cabernet, Merlot, Cab franc, Syrah, Tempranillo and Mourvèdre and came up with this elegant, food friendly wine.

Today, we hand craft more than a dozen Urban Legend wines that each, uniquely, salutes the varied flavors of California and our home: Oakland, America’s most diverse city.

Critics and consumers alike are impressed with our fidelity to variety, our expression of place, our food-friendly style, and our absolute consistency of quality—from our very first release and forward.

Wines must be made next to vines to be good—anywhere else is a gimmick. Being outside “wine country” liberates us to source grapes where a particular variety grows the best—not just what grows in our back yard. We can celebrate the best of California . It also liberates us to do what we do best: find the best fruit, seek great but unusual varieties, and—more than anything—take meticu- lous care with winemaking to craft the finest in flavor.

Ultimately, we believe that wine should be seriously enjoyable and made to complement good food, good times, and living well.

Azienda Agricola Riofava Gomba

The Azienda Agricola Riofava was created by Sergio Gomba, winemaker and owner of Azienda Agricola Gomba, in 2007. Named after the stream which runs through the land, Riofava produces a line of fine Piedmontese wines according to the traditional methods of the area and to the same high standards which have become synonymous with the name Gomba.

The noble wine Barolo (known locally as the king of wines and the wine of kings) heads the list, including a “cru” (selected vineyard) known as “Surì”, which in Piedmontese dialect means “a sunny place”, due to the excellent exposure of the vines to the sun.

The range is completed by (made from the same grape as Barolo) which is a younger, fresher wine, Barbera and d’Alba (which, in spite of the name of the grape, is not sweet), and white wines Roero , recently promoted to DOCG status, and the sweet Moscato Piemonte. And of course they are all distinguished by the unmistakable winemaking style of Sergio Gomba, born only from experience and passion for the wines and lands of his heritage.

Azienda Vinicola Anna Spinato

It was in 1952 when the winemaking potential of this area (located on the Piave river) permitted Spinato’s wines to become amazing. Thanks to an enthusiastic beginning, the winery that was established by Anna’s grandfather has continued to grow in and has become a national panorama.

Today the company is driven by Anna making use of two winemakers and consultants of international experience. With these two new people, young and enterprising, we have introduced innovative technology and more accurate controls in all the productive processes, enabling the company to face not only the Italian market, but more importantly the international market. They can now more comprehensively give the palates of the world what they desire; high quality wine with characteristics linked to the territory but at the same time give consumer satisfaction.

The company today is promoting not only wines from its own territory such as Prosecco DOC, Prosecco Valdobbiadene DOCG, and red Malanotte Raboso Superiore Piave DOCG, but also international wines which spread from Veneto to Friuli region and from Trentino Alto Adige to Tuscany. We are convinced this is the right road to take, not without any great sacrifices, however our satisfaction will be achieved every time you taste our great wines.

26 Villa Erbice

The history of VILLA ERBICE begins some time ago when Great Grandfather Narciso was born in 1870 and started producing wine. The family started to produce high quality wines exclusively from grapes cultivated in their own property. Today the whole family is involved in the company, particularly the two brothers Silvio and Alberto.

Today VILLA ERBICE counts over 15 hectares of vineyards located in the Val di Mezzane at about 20 km East from Verona. The land is gravelly with 17% active limestone, almost at the consented limit for vine cultivation. Here, where the landscape alone is of great value, the Erbice brothers draw their inspiration. A combination of soil, climate, vegetation and man’s hard work and dedication all complementing each other. Finally the wine is the expression of the magical combination of all these elements.

As a company policy all manipulations and processing are minimized with maximum respect for natural balance and harmony. Albert and Silvio are committed to constant research and experimentation both in the vineyards and in the cellar. They also rediscover ancient methods and practices which have sometimes been replaced in favour of modern and innovative methods which they believe are arguable.

Podere La Vigna

The commune of Montalcino is located 40 kilometres south of Siena. It is like an island in the heart of Tuscany, and offers to those who enter through the surrounding hills a feeling of a gradual conquest. Perhaps it is because of its unique geographical position or perhaps because of the environment, still intact and wild, that Montalcino provides a host of stimuli for the imagination. Passing through characteristic villages and thick woods, the traveller will discover its well-tended vineyards. Certainly the best image of Montalcino is revealed primarily by its wine, the most precious gift of a land that is both hard and generous. The climate is typically Mediterranean and fundamentally mild during the entire vegetative cycle assuring the gradual and complete ripening of the grape clusters. This wine is the result of a tenacious dedication and of loving watchfulness of its winemakers.

The Rubegni family bought the La Vigna estate in 1958 and have been wine makers for generations. This estate is situated on the eastern side of the Montalcino hill. The 4 hectare vineyards of Sangiovese are partly 27 years old, partly more recently planted and gradually starting to be productive. The cellar, recently expanded & updated, is managed with the support of oenologist Dr. Paolo Vagaggini. The property also includes olive groves which produce Extra Virgin Olive Oil. It is also one of the very few cattle–breeding farms of the area for the local species Chianina.

Tenuta di Sticciano

Set in the breathtaking countryside, Sticciano country estate is not far away from the medieval towns of Certaldo and San Gimignano. The estate spreads over 170 hectares, part of which are vineyards part are olive groves and the rest is covered in thick woodlands rich in age-old trees. The estate produces wine and extra-virgin olive oil obtained exclusively by grapes and cultivated within the property. The Sticciano Estate, with its rural buildings is also a holiday country house preserved in the finest Tuscan tradition.

Sticciano country estate is a historical country house dating back to the seventeenth century with a long winemaking history: this is well documented in some papers dating back to 1815. However, Sangiovese was probably produced even before then, in the ancient cellar adjoining the villa. Today the wines are aged in the same cellar as three centuries ago.

“Passion” is the keyword to understand the philosophy of Sticciano country estate. The passion for this land and its products represents our main target: we always aim at quality.”

Winemaker and owner Alessio is also a poet – in fact, he wrote this poem dedicated to the vine! “No other plant is as fascinating as the vine. She talks to those who understand. One has to keep close constantly and study her tirelessly She never ceases to surprise you; Her personality is wonderfully complex. Now treat her with tenderness, at times with cunning, then with firmness. But serve and love her always. One year she is generous and the next she is mean. She is capriciously fascinating and perversely diabolic. This is the Italian plant revered in all eras. She gives wine for rites, celebrations and good health, For a lively youth and a merry old age.”

F.lli De Luca

The activity of the F.lli De Luca starts in 1970 from the passion and love for grapes and vines of Uncle Remo and Papà Nunziato. The 2 hectares of vineyards, planted and cultivated with great care soon became 22 and are now managed by the competence, professionality and renewed passion of the two brothers Luciano and Remo. The most fertile and fruitful inheritance received from Remo and Nunziato is the great passion for vine growing and the love of their territory which are reflected in the modern and effcient management of the family company which aims at high profile results with ethical procedures.

The hills in the area of Mozzagrogna represents the perfect habitat for the vine cultivation. Already two centuries ago the Count Genoino from Castel di Septe guessed the virtues of this small but enchanting strip of Hither Abruzzi. He therefore had his residence built and also initiated a tradition which today is interpreted by the talented De Luca brothers.

Luciano and Remo have selected autochtonous and international vines, implanting with modern methods of high density rows with low yield, and operating with respect for the environment and landscape. This is the high level procedure carried forward for the production of top quality wines of the Castel di Septe line which enclose rich aromas and unrepeatable scents.
