Of all the major old world giants, Spain has perhaps the fewest number of wines with a rarified cult status. While prices continue to rise for top Rioja, Priorat, Ribeira Sacra, and Ribera del Duero, those wines are still widely available and produced in quantities that limit the fear of missing a new release. Dominio de Pingus is one of few expections to this rule.

Along with Vega Sicilia, Pingus is a Ribera del Duero producer that shakes global palates when reaches shelves, wine lists, and investment markets.

Oregon Chardonnay

 
Just as Burgundy inspired Oregon winemakers to plant and craft Pinot Noir, so, too, did it encourage the planting and crafting of its noble white grape: Chardonnay. Burgundy may offer the pinnacle of Chardonnay, but Oregon’s wineries offer it an illustrious yet more affordable home. Here, we find a wide diversity of styles, from unoaked and neutral-barrel expressions, to mineral-laden and reductive, to opulent, oak- or fruit-forward cuvees, and every combination in between. Though their prices have yet to reach Burgundian, the quality is enough to make several top domaines buy up their own corner of our state.
 
We offer a wide variety of in-stock picks, including from some of our favorite producers, such as Tan Fruit, Cameron, Goodfellow, and Sequitur.

Domaine Rostaing

 
René Rostaing founded his estate in the 1970s, working with family parcels in the Côte Blonde and La Landonne regions of the Northern Rhone appellation of the Côte Rôtie. The estate has since expanded, now including the Côte Bonnette parcel in Condrieu, old vines in Lézardes (just outside Côte Rôtie and bottled under the IGP Collines Rhodaniennes), as well as an estate in the Coteaux du Languedoc, where the estate’s Puech Noble wines originate.
 
For fans of the Northern Rhone, these are iconic, classic wines like no other. Eschewing 100% new oak and other modern stylings, the estate is not afraid of using modern technology as long as it aids in performing traditional practices, such as using rotary fermenters for the traditional long and gentle macerations.

Tell Everyone About Telmo
 

“Recovering regions, protecting traditions, head-pruning vines, helping those who are starting out. That’s what I’m talking about. Everything we’re doing is restoring; we’re not trying to invent anything new. In fact, our motto is: The Future Lies in the Past.” – Telmo Rodríguez
 
Ladeira Do Xil
 
We love the wines of Telmo Rodriguez. He is one of Spanish wine’s great champions, having fought for regenerative farming and terroir-focused winemaking on both the micro and macro level. But after pushing for agricultural policy change in the “Terroir Manifesto” and bringing his father’s winery, Remelluri, in Rioja to new heights of purity and excellence, what else was one of the wine industry’s top minds to do but start a new winery?
