“Cascina delle Rose is without question one of the emerging estates in Barbaresco. Readers who have not tasted these wines should make a point of doing so, as they encapsulate everything that makes Barbaresco so alluring.”
–Antonio Galloni, Vinous
 
Cascina delle Rose
 
The Cascina delle Rose estate in Barbaresco crafts charming and soulful wines that are easy to love, drink, and enjoy. To be sure, the wines aren’t for everyone, especially if power and heft are your preferences. These lean, well, lean, but don’t scrimp on the aromatic complexity or beauty.
 
The winemaking here is extremely traditional, and the vineyard management fully organic. These are wines that are striving for beauty and achieve it without sacrificing their drinkability and the ability to satisfy.

Peter William
 
Unlike the Willamette with its emphasis on Burgundian varieties and styles, the Rogue Valley boasts one of the most diverse selection of styles and grapes in any established winemaking region in America. The one hundred or so wineries that call it home emphasize sustainability.
 
Full-time physician Dr. Peter Adesman and his wife, Dr. Robin Miller, planted the Peter William estate vineyard in 2013 after decades of work collecting, consuming, and educating on wine. They grow Roussanne, Grenache, Syrah, Tempranillo, and Malbec at the estate and purchase from other Rogue Valley vineyards. The resulting wines are enjoyable and approachable, both in terms of drinkability and cost.

Regal Riesling from the Mosel

Joh. Jos. Prüm
 
Manfred and Katarina Prüm make some of the finest and most sought-after wines in all of Germany. These reference-point Mosel Rieslings are some of the most profound and age-worthy white wines in the world. These white wines have near-unparalleled consistency in ageability and quality worldwide.
 
The Prüm wines are high-wire acts of tension between fruit and intense minerality. By some subtle alchemy, the wines spring forth from the parcels of mostly old, ungrafted vines through spontaneous fermentation and a dash of magic in the cellar. The results are deeply expressive of their terroir.
 
As you can expect with one of the most famous producers in Germany, if not the world, quantities are highly allocated.

Domaine Leflaive. That striking canary yellow capsule, and the unmistakeable label with the royal blue and yellow insignia of the family and domaine. There’s is no White Burgundy producer more immediately recognizeable than Leflaive and certainly none that match the art it is able to create with chardonnay. When I was first studying wine and learning about White Burgundy, Leflaive was the literal benchmark used to describe the infamous lemon curd, chalky minerality, and smoky matchstick flavors and aromas of Puligny Montrachet and it’s greatest examples.
