Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey
One of the wine world’s rockstar producers, Pierre-Yves Colin is the oldest son of Burgundy’s Marc Colin. Pierre-Yves worked at his father’s domaine from 1994 to 2005, when he left to form his own Burgundy house with his wife, Caroline Morey, who had an established wine négociant business. Pierre-Yves inherited an almost 15-acre parcel of his family’s vineyards, while Caroline’s relationships with winegrowers was equally robust. Together, the pair founded Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey in the Côte de Beaune with the intention of crafting fine, mineral-driven, terroir-specific Chardonnay wines. About 70% of the grapes for Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey’s wine come from the domaine’s own vineyards, located mostly in Chassagne-Montrachet, with the remainder coming from dedicated growers. Pierre-Yves uses sustainable agriculture, long aging in neutral demi-muid barrels (rather than new oak), and long élevage for his profound, detailed Chardonnays. This meticulous viniculture helps Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey to craft gorgeous Burgundies to collect, share, and love.

About Mamete Prevostini
Fewer than 50 acres in the pristine Valtellina subregion, located in northern Italy’s Lombardia, Mamete Prevostini is something of a cult superstar... in the making. The Prevostini family has been living in Valtellina’s craggy Alpine hills for generations; indeed, this family-owned-and-operated estate saw its start in the 1920s, when Mamete started making his own wine to accompany the fine food he served in his restaurant. In addition to its award-winning Chiavennasca bottlings, Prevostini also crafts a range of whites and rosés, which derive from lower altitude vineyards. Prevostini grows its grapes sustainably, and it vinifies its wines in its state-of-the-art carbon-neutral cantina, aging them in natural crotti, of caves, which dot the region. Winemaker-owner Mamete Prevostini, grandson of the founder, sees his natural — and naturally delicious — winemaking as a commitment to nature and to tradition. Remarkable expressions of their Dolomite terroir, Prevostini’s wines evoke the clear mountain air, sparkling sunshine, and rare alpine microclimates.Tenuta Marino Audacia IGT Marche Rosso 2018
Tenuta Marino’s flagship wine, Audacia makes the most of its low production, high quality 2018 vintage... with a wine that’s intense, detailed, and frankly gorgeous. This kaleidoscopic wine wraps its succulent wild berries with sun-warmed herbs, peppery spices, and kisses of cocoa and salty caramel in a complex, muscular, and balanced profile. Mostly Montepulciano with Cabernet Sauvignon and some Sangiovese Grosso, Audacia is a bold, structured red that welcomes your discovery — and it’s sure to appreciate in value down the road!
About Montevertine
Just under 50 acres located in and around the rolling hills of Radda in the Chianti Classico region, Montevertine has made a powerful impact on the global... wine landscape with its cult mono-varietal bottling, Le Pergole Torte, but even more than that glowing achievement, Montevertine has exerted a kind of gravitational pull over the entire Chianti region because of its staunch adherence to traditional indigenous grapes, especially Sangiovese. Founder Sergio Manetti wasn’t looking to shift the Tuscan winemaking landscape when he bought the lands that would become Montevertine in 1967, but he planted about five acres of Sangiovese, made some wine for friends, and sent a couple of bottles off to Vinitaly as a lark. The wine was a hit, and Montevertine was born. Today, Montevertine, helmed by Sergio’s son, Martino, spans nine organically tended vineyard parcels, with the majority planted to Sangiovese, and it crafts three wines. Montevertine’s position has shifted from new guard to vanguard, and wine-lovers around the globe await every new release with bated breath.
About Bartolo Mascarello
Bartolo Mascarello was an intractable defender of traditional Barolo, the “last of the Mohicans,” in his words. Bartolo made Barolos that... gorgeously embodied their vintage and their terroir, and these supple, powerful, and nuanced wines have captivated their fans for generations. Since Bartolo’s passing in 2005, his daughter Maria Teresa Mascarello has helmed the cantina at 15 Via Roma, the legendary site of the Bartolo Mascarello estate since its founding in 1918, and under her leadership, Mascarello’s Barolo, Dolcetto, and Barbera have grown even finer, subtler, more detailed, and spellbinding. While the Mascarello estate sports enviable holdings in Cannubi, San Lorenzo and Rué, located in the commune of Barolo, as well as in La Morra’s Rocche in the commune of La Morra, it still has never released a cru wine. Blending, Bartolo believed, provided balance, especially in challenging vintages. Maria Teresa sees no reason to change her father’s ways (or those of his father, and his before him). After all, there’s no improving upon perfection.About Poderi Aldo Conterno
Poderi Aldo Conterno rose to fame by crafting some of the best-known, best-loved cru Barolo expressions in its Barolo Romirasco, Colonnello, and... Cicala, as well as its Chardonnay Bussiador and its Quartetto, a red wine that blends Nebbiolo with international grapes. In 1969, Aldo Conterno famously parted ways with his brother at their father’s estate, Giacomo Conterno, and founded Poderi Aldo Conterno in the “Favot” cellar on 61 acres in Bussia of Monforte d'Alba, the heart of Barolo country. Aldo’s vision was to craft wines that blended traditional structure, grace, and longevity with exquisitely transparent terroir, seductive juiciness, and a clearly defined personality. Before his death in 2012, Aldo achieved all this and more, creating a winemaking legacy that set him apart as one of the world’s greatest winemakers. The Aldo Conterno estate continues Aldo’s remarkable winemaking work in the hands of his three sons, Franco, Stefano, and Giacomo.No account yet?
