About Le Mortelle

Located on the Maremma Coast near the family's Guado al Tasso estate in Bolgheri, Le Mortelle was once part of a larger estate called La Badiola, created in... the nineteenth century when the Duchy drained the marshy areas around Grosseto. The Antinori family purchased Le Mortelle in 1999, and the estate’s name, which comes from the region’s plentiful wild myrrh, signals the family’s green commitment. Le Mortelle isn’t merely certified organic — it also sports a state-of-the-art cellar facility constructed with natural materials and erected under the earth. Built into the side of a hill, Le Mortelle’s cantina is barely visible, but its three-story structure allows for gravity to move the wine from pressing to fermentation to aging barrels, which reduces energy and treats the wine with tender loving care. Le Mortelle occupies almost 670 acres, with 420 acres under vine, and it boasts a variety of soils that range from sandy and loamy with clay and silica to rocky, pebbly, and mineral-rich. While Le Mortelle’s range of wines is small, the impact is great, and it’s only a matter of time before this Antinori estate achieves the renown it deserves.

Tenuta di Bibbiano

Bibbiano Chianti Classico Riserva ‘Bibbiano’ 2019 750ml

About Tenuta di Bibbiano

The name “Bibbiano” first appears in historical documents that are more than 1,000 years old, and these lands have been growing grapes for almost... that long; a respect for this legacy imbues everything that Tenuta di Bibbiano does, from its superb Chianti Classico bottlings to its excellent olive oil. In 1865, the Marzi family purchased the Bibbiano lands, and for five generations, they’ve been the careful, conscientious stewards of the property. Tenuta di Bibbiano boasts gorgeous vineyards that span about 60 acres in the Chianti Classico zone. Surrounded by a large grove of olive trees, Bibbiano’s limestone-rich, clayey vineyards are home to primarily Sangiovese Grosso and Sangiovese vines, along with other select indigenous Tuscan grape varietals, and the estate has been certified organic for more than a decade. While Bibbiano developed their wines with famed enologist Giulio Gambelli, today’s owners, Tommaso and Federico Marrocchesi Marzi, work with Maurizo Castelli. Together, they strive to create wines that reflect their Tuscan traditions and terroir.

Pasquale Pelissero

Pasquale Pelissero Barbaresco Cascina Crosa 2019 750ml

About Pasquale Pelissero

Founded in 1921 by brothers Giuseppe and Giovanni Pelissero, the tiny family-owned-and-operated Pasquale Pelissero estate entered its modern era in... the 1970s when its namesake, Pasquale, began bottling his estate-grown wines. Pasquale, or Papa, was a pioneer in Barbaresco because, at that time, few other estates were bottling their own Barbaresco. Pasquale’s daughter, Ornella, started working in the vineyards when she was just 15, and she assumed control of Pasquale Pelissero in 2007 when her father suddenly passed away. Just under 20 acres in the hills around Neive, Pasquale Pelissero grows sustainably and adheres to tradition — indeed, Ornella’s only concession to modern technology is a temperature-controlled fermentation tank. Ornella and her son, Simone, do everything at Pasquale Pelissero, from maintaining the vines to vinifying their wines in their cellar that sits near the top of the Bricco San Giuliano hill. Pasquale Pelissero crafts fewer than 4,000 cases of its tradition, terroir-driven wine a year.

About Castello Bonomi

The Paladin family, who has been making estate-bottled wine for about 60 years, owns several estates across Italy, from the Veneto to Tuscany, but... perhaps their most famous and most distinct is Castello Bonomi, in Lombardy’s Franciacorta region. With vinicultural history that dates back to medieval Benedictine monks, Franciacorta spans about 5,400 acres, but this rare northern Italian region is devoted to one unique style of wine: the best champagne-styled sparklers that you can find outside of France — indeed, it’s the sole DOCG region that permits classic méthode champenoise sparklers. The family-owned-and-operated Castello Bonomi estate is housed in a gorgeous art deco villa built in the late nineteenth century, and the estate’s vineyards sit on 60 steeply pitched acres in a natural amphitheater that rests at the foot of Mount Orfano. These terraced vineyards enjoy a privileged microclimate that includes limestone-rich soils, southern exposures, excellent drainage, and pure sunlight. These elements provide the raw materials that Castello Bonomi’s Chardonnay and Pinot Nero grapes need, while a strict green harvest, low yields, and stringent grape sorting help the estate’s team craft a range of terroir-driven, award-winning Franciacorta wines.

Azienda Agricola La Torre Rosso di Montalcino 2020 750ml

Azienda Agricola La Torre Rosso di Montalcino 2020 Most Rosso di Montalcino act like “baby brothers” to the estate’s bigger, bolder Brunello, but La Torre’s Rosso owns its own identity.... Bright, vibrant, and sneaky in its complexity, this 2020 Rosso di Montalcino strides the line between juicy and tart, showing fistfuls of red and blue frutti di bosco, pressed herbs, violet petals, underbrush, and a dusting of savory earth and olives. This wine’s bitter almond finish makes it a food-friendly pick for hard cheeses, cured meats, and grilled veggies!

Cerbaia Rosso di Montalcino 2021 750ml

About Azienda Agricola Cerbaia

Located above the fog line high on the Montosoli hill just north of Montalcino, Cerbaia is neither very large nor very old. This organic 29-acre... estate (fewer than 11 acres under vine) was founded in 1978, but despite its relative youth and diminutive size, Cerbaia is one of Brunello’s rising stars and definitely an estate to watch! Agronomist Fabio Pellegrini chose Montosoli for his estate because he saw tremendous potential in the subregion’s galestro soil because this clayey, rocky dirt was ideal for the cultivation of small-berried, thick-skinned Brunello grapes. Fabio ran Cerbaia until 2014, which his daughter, Elena, assumed control. In trading her career in finance for that of a winemaker, Elena was making a big life change, but her gamble is paying off. Cerbaia may average only 1,500 cases of Brunello every vintage, but eyes are on Cerbaia’s wines. Traditional, aromatic, long-aging, and terroir-driven, Cerbaia’s Brunello releases have everything to please the wine’s many, many fans!

Tenuta San Guido

Tenuta San Guido Le Difese 2019 750ml

WD93

About Tenuta San Guido

Sassicaia is arguably Italy’s most famous bottle of wine, and its maker, Tenuta San Guido, is Italian wine aristocracy. Sassicaia and its Super-Tuscan... revolution changed the face of Italian wine — and it catapulted Tenuta San Guido into the highest echelon of wine producers. Today, Marchese Nicolò Incisa della Rocchetta continues in his father’s footsteps even as he prepares to hand over San Guido estate to his son, Sebastian Rosa. Over the years, Tenuta San Guido expanded its vineyards to encompass 190 acres, planted to Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc, and the estate expanded its lineup to include “second” wine Guidalberto and entry-level Le Difese. Debuting with the 2000 vintage, Guidalberto holds fast to its ideal of accessibility upon release, but over the years, it has grown more refined, polished, and elegant. Le Difese, debuting with the 2003 vintage, does the work of the estate's "everyday" wine, but when Tenuta San Guido makes it, the “everyday” wine is still a reason to celebrate. Tenuta San Guido’s outstanding Guidalberto and Le Difese bottlings add even more luster to Italy’s premier Super-Tuscan estate.

ABout Canalicchio di Sopra

Canalicchio di Sopra’s history is also the history of Montalcino. Once a sharecropper, Primo Pacenti founded the estate in 1962 on land that his... family had worked for generations. Primo was proud to be one of the original twelve members of the Brunello Consortium; when he retired, Primo handed Canalicchio di Sopra to his son-in-law, Pier Luigi Ripacciolo, and since 2001, the estate has been run by Pier Luigi’s three children, Francesco, Marco, and Simonetta. With two vineyard parcels that sit north and east of the town of Montalcino, sheltered by Mount Amiata and kissed by sea breezes blowing off the Mediterranean, Canalicchio di Sopra’s 47 acres occupy some the highest altitudes in the Brunello region and possess a superb range of microclimates. “Elegance” is the watchword at Canalicchio di Sopra, and this maker delivers, vintage after delicious vintage.

Marchesi Antinori Viña Haras de Pirque Albis 2018

Silky and powerful, the 2018 Albis unwraps slowly to reveal its many layers — succulent wild berries, ripe plums, new... leather, peppery spices, melted chocolate, and lots of pipe tobacco. This blend of 70% Cab Sauv and 30% Carménère is bold yet sneaky, with a nice substantial mouthfeel, lots of chewy tannins, and a surprising, nuanced palate that builds to a lingering, berry-laden finish. The child of a super-temperate, extended growing season, the 2018 Albis has fantastic potential, but you can dive in right now with proper decanting.
