The quintessence of Davide's endeavours. The grapes for the Rugoli Vecchie Vigne come from a vineyard where Garganega vines have been rooted for over 60 years. The vines are as thick as tree trunks, deeply anchored in volcanic basalt and fairly resistant to potential fungal diseases.  Small, full...

Elisa Carpanese is the wife of Filippo Gamba, the owner of the Alla Costiera winery in the Colli Euganei. While he grew up among the vines, it was through him that she first became interested in wine. Initially, she dealt with the bureaucracy alongside a 40-hour job away from the wine industry a...

Catarratto is Fabio Ferracane's flagship variety and the Guanciabianca is a brilliant introduction.  The vines for this are rooted on a plateau 160 metres above sea level in very calcareous soil. In view of the very high temperatures around Marsala, especially in summer, limestone provides a cer...

Fabio Ferracane can also do Grillo. Although Catarratto is clearly the leitmotif in his range of grape varieties, he also has a small vineyard in which the second important white grape variety Marsalas is rooted. It is located in the plain behind the salt pans of the western Sicilian town, where,...

Jura meets Marsala. The Muffato is - as sometimes happens with the production of special wines - a child of chance. Its mother was a barrel of Catarratto that was filled in 2013, but was then forgotten. Over the years, a little wine always evaporated in it, over which - increasingly exposed to th...

Nosiola has always been at home in Trentino. Elisabetta Foradori delivers one of the best interpretations of the variety with her Fontanasanta, which is matured in amphorae - the "holy spring" is also the name of the two-hectare vineyard where the grapes are grown. The soil is barren and chalky a...

The Mont Blanc (der Weiße Berg) is in Neusiedl. At least if Jörg Bretz has his way. A few years ago, he decided to give his cuvée of Grüner Veltliner and Pinot Blanc the name Weißer Berg, although we still don't know why he did so (we suspect it's because of the colour of the soil, but we'll find...

"We can make even more from Pinot Blanc than from Chardonnay," says Jörg Bretz. In order to achieve more, Jörg Bretz follows a few principles that no other winegrower we know of in Austria pursues with the same rigour.  In short, they can be summarised as follows: a lot of manual work, meticulous...

Corrado Dottori (La Distesa) says: "An old vineyard. The salt and light of San Michele. A long dialogue with the air. The passing of time. This is the Gli Eremi."  You could leave it at these words. However, a few additional explanatory words wouldn't hurt. San Michele is the part of Cupramontana...

Terre Silvate, says Corrado Dottori, is the wine that represents La Distesa like no other. A lively, purist and animating Verdicchio that is much more than just a basic wine. It comes from vineyards in three different communes in the old Verdicchio metropolis of Castelli di Jesi. None of them is...

Samuele Bonanini is one of the few winegrowers who still dedicate themselves to the vines on the steep slopes of the Cinque Terre. On small micro-parcels held up by stone walls and connected by ropes, he works on cultivation in the truest sense of the word. The best example of this is his "Cinque...

Francesca Sfondrini has in her vineyard Malvasia Bianca di Candia (which should not be confused with Malvasia di Candia aromatica Dinavolo the protagonist). Candia is the Latin name for Crete, which suggests that the Malvasia Bianca di Candia is old and may actually be a connection to the Greek p...

The Sauvignon Blanc Graf is an example of how Sauvignon can be when you let nature have the first and last word. Not that this isn't the case with Sepp Muster's other wines. With his Sauvignon Blanc, however, it is even more noticeable, as it differs so clearly from the many versions of the varie...
