Captain of Casot:

Nada Giuseppe 

“We have clean and perfumed Barbaresco with plenty of fresh, if not tart, fruit character and softer extraction, resulting in wines that are poised right now: a gift for the current consumer trend which favours polished wines with complexity yet minimal austerity.”

Markus Molitor Erdener Treppchen Riesling Auslese *** Gold Capsule, Mosel 2017 750ML ($139.95) Was $128, Now $99, 14 bottles in stock now
Stephan Reinhardt-Wine Advocate 98+ points
“The 2017 Riesling Erdener Treppchen Auslese *** (Golden Capsule) is bright and even floral (hyacinths) on the clear, slatey, highly refined but aromatic nose with its precise stone fruit and delicate flinty aromas. Silky, sweet and round, with great finesse, elegance and seamless, perfectly balanced texture, this is a lean but lush, incredibly fine and filigreed Auslese with a long, fresh, piquant and salty finish.

When looking for premium offerings in the world of wine Spain is without a doubt the biggest “Bang for your buck”. With grapevines planted from tip to tail and a beautiful assortment of styles, there are also large amounts of old vines still planted throughout the country, promising more intense aromas and flavors as well as a favorable aging trajectory. 

Spanish Selections in stock now: 

Based in the Valdeorras, or the Valley of Gold region, their champion grape is the indigenous Godello grape.
