Muller-Catoir
 
The Pfalz as a region focuses on powerful, dry wines. Closer to Strasbourg than Berlin, it is nestled between the Haardt Mountains and the Rhine River in a veritable oasis of forests and hills. Archeological records show that the district was one of the first areas in the world to have widespread consumption and production of wine, dating back to 550 B.C.E.
 
The beneficial growing conditions make for some of the most interesting and diverse expressions of German wine, with Riesling being the crown jewel. The warmer average temperature yields Rieslings with deep minerality and concentrated stone fruit flavors. Aromas usually feature a headier and effusive quality in comparison to other regions.

Raúl Pérez: Mencía Magic on Sale Now


Raúl Pérez


When people talk about Spanish red wine, most conversations begin and end with Tempranillo. But some of the most thrilling wines in Spain come from a very different place, both stylistically and geographically. Travel northwest to Bierzo, a rugged and green landscape shaped by mountains and slate, and you’ll discover Mencía: a grape that every serious wine drinker should know. It delivers fragrance, finesse, and lift, along with red fruit, wild herbs, and a mineral core that feels carved straight from the hillsides.

Bierzo is where Mencía shows its true identity. The region’s steep vineyards, ancient bush vines, and stony soils create wines that are vibrant yet layered, concentrated yet agile. Old vine depth meets cool-climate freshness, giving Mencía a character that often reminds people of Pinot Noir or Northern Rhône Syrah, but with unmistakable Iberian personality.

Poised for Complexity: Markus Molitor 2019 Rieslings 1-11-26

All of Molitor’s 2019 vintage wines on sale now!
 

Few estates demonstrate the transformative power of time like Markus Molitor. His Rieslings begin life razor-sharp and intricately detailed—built on purity, tension, and absolute precision—but it’s with a few years of rest that they start revealing their deeper story. Now approaching six years from harvest, the 2019s are entering that exciting phase where youthful brilliance gives way to developing nuance, added texture, and richer layers of aroma and flavor.

The shift is subtle at first, then undeniable. Fruit that once felt purely citrus-driven now shades into candied lime, yellow stone fruit, and hints of dried orchard blossom. The slate-driven minerality grows more expressive and resonant, bringing cool herbal tones, gentle smokiness, and a whisper of honeyed depth without losing the vibrancy that defines Mosel Riesling.

Brunello is a place of magic, where the local Sangiovese Grosso clone ascends to levels of complexity and longevity impossible elsewhere. This is the elite of Tuscany and some of the finest wines produced in Europe.
 
And the most magical of Brunellos? Biondi-Santi. This winery, and family behind it were the founders of the region of Brunello di Montalcino, and through their approaching 200-year history have embodied the identity of quality, tradition, and longevity. They pioneered the use of grafting select vines to rescue the local clones from phylloxera, and were the first to bottle wines under the official “Brunello di Montalcino” label. Their wines are the ultimate expression of Brunello and a must have for all lovers of authentic and historic Tuscan wines.

Cantina del Pino:

Owners and winemakers at Cantina del Pino, the Vacca family has been a part of Italian winemaking for over 100 years. Domizio Cavazzo established the estate vineyard in 1894. He became one of the first winemakers to produce Nebbiolo under the name Barbaresco, over 70 years before the creation of the official appellation in 1966.
 
An advocate for regional farmers, Cavazzo’s vineyard was well known, recognizable by the large Mediterranean pine tree he planted on the day his first son was born. In 1912, the Vacca family took over the estate and have worked the land for four generations, becoming known for world  class wines from the historic vineyard.
