W**e of the Week! Azimuth Vermeil
📍 Catalunya, Spain
🍇 Monastrell, Garnatxa Negre, and Sumoll Negre

The Suriol family have been farming their estate since the 1600s. In 1890, the infamous phylloxera pest killed all their vines but they replanted all the vineyards with American rootstock some 10 years later. They began production of bottled w**e in the 1940s. Following a truly holistic biodynamic approach, the sustainability effort extends to all areas of production.

Named Azimut after the Arabic word for direction. ‘Vermell’ means ‘red’ in Catalan. Grapes come from certified organic farmers that the Suriol family works with in different regions of the Penedès.

Spontaneous fermentation in stainless steel with the grapes’ own yeasts, then aged 3 months in underground concrete tanks. No filtration or filtration.

Accessible, sharable, and here to keep the dinner conversation flowing. Bright cranberry and cassis on the nose, leading to a juicy, cherry, berry-forward palate. Medium-bodied with very light tannins, making it fantastic to serve slightly chilled.

Pair with grilled pizza, barbecued meats, or mushroom risotto.

Certified Organic. Minimal Added SO2.

W**e of the Week! Gonzáles Bastías Descabezado País
📍 Maule Valley, Chile
🍇 100% País

González Bastías is a small, family owned w**ery in western Maule, owned and operated by Jose Luís Bastías and Daniela Lorenzo. Jose’s family planted their 4 hectare vineyard in the early 1800s. In 2023, the Maule River flooded, badly damaging the cellar and w**ery, but the vineyards were undamaged. As a result, they felt “headless,” and that feeling lends its name to the new w**e they made following the tragedy.

‘Descabezado’ was made in the new w**ery, built above the hill where the old one stood. 100% País from 200+-year-old vines grown in mixture of sand and gravel soil. Pressed by hand over bamboo zarandas into open top cement vats; the then aged in either barrels or amphora. Fermented with native yeasts, and macerated 3 days on the skin before a slower, extended 3 month fermentation. Unfined and unfiltered.

Light-bodied, fresh, and juicy “glou-glou” style. Prominent strawberry, pomegranate, and cranberry with accents of white pepper, and earthy-floral spices, with a dry, minerally finish. Drink chilled. Pair it with grilled sausages, charred vegetables, roast chicken with chimichurri, or charcuterie boards.

Organic. Biodynamic. No Added SO2.

W**e of the Week! Cardedu ‘Caladu’ Cannonau di Sardegna
📍 Sardegna, Italy
🍇 100% Cannonau

Sergio Loi is a 4th generation traditional Sardinian w**emaker. His family has practiced no chemical farming and minimum intervention in the cellar since the early 1900s. They grow and make w**es from only native varieties. ‘Caladu’ is the Sardinian word for sunset.

Dry farmed without the use of herbicides or pesticides. Hand harvested. Fermentation 11 days in cavernous cement tanks from 1950s. Ages 3 years in cement. Unfiltered. Only 1,000 cases produced.

Spice and smoke mingle with fleshy fruit of red plums and raspberries. Cadedu’s old vines (avg. 25-50 years old) provide a depth to the fruit while decomposed granite soils keep the w**es fresh. Pair with all things grilled.

Organic. Sustainably Farmed. Minimal Intervention.

W**e of the Week! Gentle Folk Vin de Sofa
📍 Adelaide Hills, Australia
🍇 75% Sangiovese, 20% Pinot Noir, 5% Syrah

W**emakers Gareth and Rainbo Belton abandoned their marine science careers after giving into their love of w**e, food, and growing things. The Gentle Folk story began in 2012 in Basket Range, a small town in the Adelaide Hills of South Australia. They currently farm 8 hectares of vines and produce.

The season in 2026 was cool and late and that means this w**e is lighter on its feet and very delicious. Hand-harvested Sangiovese, pinot noir, and syrah from Adelaide Hills, fermented with indigenous yeasts in a combination of large format oak, terracotta, stainless steel, and neutral puncheons to keep the fruit purity and juiciness factor high.

The name is a play on “vin de soif “ (“w**e of thirst”), combining it with “sofa” to mean an easy-drinking, laid-back bottle meant for casual sipping.

On the nose, bright red cherry, wild raspberry, pomegranate, and dusty earth. It’s juicy and light-bodied with sour cherry, cranberry, and savory dried herbs. Crunchy acidity, very fine tannins, and a refreshing, clean finish. Pair it with casual Italian food, pork dumplings, grilled halloumi, or grilled chicken.

Organic. Biodynamic. Low Intervention. Vegan.

W**e of the Week! Fuso ‘Spuma’ Vino Frizzante
📍 Emilia-Romagna, Italy
🍇 100% Lambrusco di Sorbara

A collaboration project from Portovino to highlight terroir-driven “daily drinker” w**es in Italy. All the w**es in their portfolio are certified organic or converting to, native grapes and native yeasts, low sulphur, unfiltered or slightly filtered, and dry farmed. ‘

Spuma’ is bottle fermented by Denny Bini. According to lore, w**emakers would yell ‘Spuma!’ in anticipatory celebration of having a fizzy w**e with their meal or aperitivo. 100% Lambrusco di Sorbara grown in Raverina, Modena, in sand and limestone soils. Harvested in late September. Spontaneous fermentation with native yeast for 15 days in stainless steel tanks. Second fermentation happens in the bottle in the spring, adding must from the same vintage. 1,500 cases produced annually.

Long considered the more mineral-drien and less fruity Lambrusco grape, Sorbara makes sparkling w**es that are racy and tingling with unripe red fruit flavors, strawberry, cranberry, and pink grapefruit zest. Bone dry, mineral driven, and mouth-watering high acidity with a crisp finish. Pair it with lasagna, pizza, street tacos, salty snacks, or rich cheeses.

Certified Organic.

Meet Cardenxe Sotol de Desierto: Hand-crafted from three wild Dasylirion species into a spirit of striking aromatic depth and earthy complexity, reflecting the high desert terrain of Chihuahua, Mexico. The art on the bottle is inspired by “Estridentismo,” the Mexican avant-garde movement born in the 1920.

Smoother than tequila and with a more subtle smokiness than mezcal. It’s aromatic and floral, with an inviting cooked agave sweetness on the nose. Sweet agave gives way to drying minerality, touches of earth, wood, dark chocolate, and lively green vegetal notes.

The finish is smooth and satisfying, with lingering vegetal notes and a gentle, lasting sweetness. Serve it neat, over a large ice cube, or in a Sotol Paloma.

W**e of the Week! Viña Zorzal Tempranillo
📍 Navarra, Spain
🍇 100% Tempranillo

Brothers Xabi, Iñaki and Mikel Sanz created Viña Zorzal in 2007, taking advantage of their long history and tradition as a w**emaking family in Correla, Navarra. They are taking a holistic approach to agriculture to make artisanal w**es, focusing on single-parcels and single-vineyards, and on the terroir of Fitero, a subzone of the D.O. Navarra. They own 40 hectares.

The w**es are made in a remodeled part of the family’s old w**ery. 100% Tempranillo from multiple vineyards in villages within Navarra in the hills between Ebro valley and the mountains, where soil is stony, sedimentary, clay, and sand. Dry, organic farming. Grapes are hand harvested. 35% whole cluster fermentation with indigenous yeasts in stainless steel. Soft pressing and pump overs. Aged in stainless steel before bottling. 3,200 bottles produced.

Fresh, vibrant, and highly approachable. The nose is dominated by ripe red fruits, accented by hints of black pepper, subtle floral tones, and an earthy undertone. Dry, lively, and fruit-forward flavors of red cherry, blue plum, and bramble berries. Slightly chewy structure balanced by refreshing fruit acidity. Lingering finish with a hint of minerality. Pair it with cured meats, paella, or mushroom risotto.

Organic. Minimal SO2 Added.

W**e of the Week! Viña Ijalba Maturana Blanca
📍 Rioja, Spain
🍇 100% Maturana Blanca

This was once the only Maturana Blanca in the world, grown on 2 hectares owned by Ijalba. But, as with the once similarly-unique Graciano, it spawned imitators. And with good reason! It is actually the variety with the oldest known written citation in Rioja, dating from 1622.

24-year-old vines grown in alluvial, sedimentary soil. Hand-harvested grapes from the Sacristana vineyard. 4-hour cold maceration, pressing, and fermentation in cement-lined tanks. 3 months on fine lees with weekly stirring to build texture; approximately 10% of the blend is oaked to add creamy, nutty complexities.

As singular and obscure a w**e as can be imagined! Vibrant, golden-yellow color with greenish hues, a profile driven by ripe stone fruits, exotic tropical notes, and a distinct struck-match mineral character, backed by a smooth, full-flavored palate with fresh, juicy acidity. Pair with grilled fish, seafood, cured meats, and fresh appetizers.

Certified Organic.

W**e of the Week! Lothar Kettern Fio ‘Drink Me’ Riesling
📍 Mosel, Germany
🍇 100% Riesling

A collaboration between Mosel w**emaker Phillip Kettern and Portugal’s Dirk and Daniel Niepoort; the NatCool concept is to follow the “less is more” rule, to use liter bottles with eye-catching labels, and to offer them at a friendly price. So far, there are 30 producers on board with the project. Philipp’s version, the “Drink Me Riesling” is characteristically original.

Steep-slope Riesling, 30% of whose grapes are not pressed before being added to the pressed w**e, followed by 2 years of aging on the lees.

It is crisp, zippy, and dry. Flavors of tart apple, peach, and citrus, balanced by a subtle touch of nuttiness and a hint of honey. Defined by piercing, well-integrated acidity that provides incredible liveliness, finishing on a clean note with a distinct touch of saline minerality.

Pairs well with spicy Asian cuisine, sushi, fresh seafood, or cheese boards with feta and goat cheese.

Practicing Organic. Biodynamic. No Added SO2.

W**e of the Week! Pheasant’s Tears Rkatsiteli-Mtsvane Tibaani
📍 Sighnaghi, Kakheti, Georgia
🍇 50% Rkatsiteli, 50% Mtsvane

John Wurdeman, an American artist, musician, restaurateur, and w**emaker, and his business partner, w**emaker Gela Patalishvili opened Pheasant’s Tears in 2007, with a focus on tracking down and reviving near-extinct grape varieties in Georgia. They ferment and age the majority of their w**es in qvevris, traditional amphorae that are buried underground.

The w**ery’s name is a nod to a Georgian folk tale, which states that only a truly superlative w**e could make a pheasant cry tears of joy.

Grapes from Tibaani vineyard in Kakheti. Sandstone and quartz soil in a semi-desert climate. Grapes are hand-harvested and macerate for 3 weeks on skins. W**e ages in qvevri for 6 months, developing a small amount of flor, before being transferred to stainless steel. Racked twice for gravity filtration then bottled.  

Mtsvane brings more floral, exotic aromas, while Rkatsiteli is more stoic and structured. Sophisticated and mouthwatering aromas of caramel and honey, orange blossom, honeysuckle, sea salt and apricot; marmalade on the palate.

Pair it with garlic-herb chicken, boldly spiced dishes, or hard, aged cheeses.

Organic Farming.
