Trencalos
Amongst the many still unknown wine regions of Spain is Terra Alta, with limestone hills set above the Mediterranean, surprisingly near better known spots like Priorat and Penedes. Their old vine reds are less powerful than Priorat or Montsant, but still rich and more elegant.

Trencalos Blanco
Amongst the many still unknown wine regions of Spain is Terra Alta, with limestone hills set above the Mediterranean, surprisingly near better known spots like Priorat and Penedes. This Garnatxa Blanca (white Grenache) is an excellent example of why this region is about to become the new thing in value wine.

Val De Salis Cabernet
While the wine may taste as big, ripe and delicious as something from California, you won't find anything from the Golden State that packs this much punch at below $10 per bottle.

Verbo Malvasia
The region of Basilicata represents the arch of the boot that comprises the shape of Italy. Aglianico is the famed grape there but surprisingly they also make crisp and balanced white wine, thanks to the volcanic origin and elevation of the vineyards. The Malvasia grape is at home here though we still don’t really know where it was born. The prevailing theory is that the name derives from the Greek port of Monemvasia but it’s important to understand that there is no single grape called Malvasia; there are many versions. Nonetheless, the particular style that is Malvasia di Basilicata is delightful and distinct: honeyed, floral and lemony.

Verraco Ridge Pinot Noir
California has had several Pinot Noir moments. There were some vineyards in Napa in the 70s and 80s - then people got smart and headed closer to the Pacific Ocean. Like Monterey. Open to the ocean, where vineyards are hot and sunny in the morning and cold and windy in the afternoon - these sorts of conditions make for brighter fruits in the red wines, many of them crisp and even slightly tart, you know, like Pinot Noir is. Like this wine is.

Vicchiomaggio Agostino Petri Chianti Classico
This is Vicchiomaggio with a Riserva designation, Sangiovese with a dollop of Cabernet Sauvignon, a single, great vineyard; this wine is aged in the used La Prima barrels, and then aged in larger format barrels for another half year or so. This is the Italian way and these both reflect that heritage. But they also reflect how much Italy has changed in the last twenty years and how modern and exciting the wines have become.
