In the 23rd generation of wine production (!!!), this very traditional and classic producer has moved to low intervention in the vineyards, renewable energy sources on property, and conservation of local plant and animal life. The wines are Sangiovese the way it should taste– beautiful acidity, fruit, and just built to go with food.
The Calidonia Chianti Classico Riserva is intense ruby red color. The nose shows fruity and floral notes together with spices and incense. Soft, elegant and well structured. Freshness, complexity, graceful and silky tannins are the result of a careful selection of sangiovese grapes growing on Alberese and Galestro soils. This wine is vibrant and has a long and persistent aftertaste. It is an excellent expression of Mocenni’s terroir and of Chianti Classico Riserva.

Owned by the vintner (Laurence Féraudo) behind Domaine du Pégau. These wines are emphatically not Chateauneuf-du-Pape, nor are they priced that way. However yields have been kept to the absurdly low limits permitted in Chateauneuf, and the wines have all of the density of that great Appellation.

One of the few organic producers in Bordeaux, Jean De Fré took over this small farm in the 80s and converted to organics. The wines are delicious, beautifully made, clean, and super reasonably priced. Nice to see all these things from Bordeaux!

The Ciavolichs were wool merchants from Bulgaria who built the family’s first cellar in 1853, one of the oldest wine making structures in Abruzzo. Chiara Chiavolich, the current generation owner, comes from a family of strong women. She strives to keep agricultural, wine and historical heritage intact in order to pass it on to future generations through sustainability. Ciavolich wines are made with both contemporary and ancient vinification techniques, respectful of the original variety and territory producing wines that are straightforward, clean and with deep spirit.
The Aries is made with 100% Pecorino. These grapes come from one hectare of pergola abruzzese planted in 2000 on the Ciavolich’s Pianella estate and from one hectare of cordon-double guyot in Loreto Aprutino planted in 2011. The grapes are hand harvested at dawn and carried directly to the winery in small baskets where they are then pressed softly and fermented in stainless under controlled temperature. Once fermentation ends, a small part of the wine is moved into 2009 French oak tonneaux for three months. Then the wines are reunited and bottled and continue aging for about two months.

Divus was born in 1987 from the most ancient vines of the winery and proudly expresses the land where it comes from. Made with 100% Montepulciano; hand harvested; destemmed; crushed; and fermented in stainless under controlled temperature; then aged in old barrels and barriques for a year; then in bottles to present a fresh, tannic, soft bodied, mature wine that gets better with time.

Ciavolich wines are made with both contemporary and ancient vinification techniques, respectful of the original variety and territory producing wines that are straightforward, clean and with deep spirit.
This wine is made with 100% Montepulciano – hand harvested in October, destemmed and crushed, then fermented in stainless under controlled temperature. Aged in stainless for almost a year then six months in the bottle.
These Montepulciano vineyards are located in Pianella, next to a small natural lake. The proximity to the lake allows the roots of the vines to stay humid even during the dry season. This freshness is found in the wine as it is aged in stainless to preserve this natural characteristic.

Established in the 1920s, this family estate is a benchmark in Chinon, and currently run by the 3rd and 4th generations of the family. 80% of their production is sold in France to high-end restaurants (21 of the 26 Michelin 3-star restaurants!). Long-time favorite of ours and so glad to have them here.
