Producers
Giovanni Montisci
Italy | Sardinia
You’d be right to be skeptical of a Nebbiolo from Sardinia, but from a top-notch terroir high in the mountains, it is something else entirely.
Giovanni Montisci
Italy | Sardinia | Vino da Tavola
Old-vine Moscato from Sardinian mountaintops. It is heavenly with sea urchin pasta.
Domaine Giacometti
France | Corsica
Not quite Rhône-like and not quite Corsican, this has the best of both worlds, with plenty of palate-staining black fruit to boot.

Italy | Le Marche | Verdicchio dei Castelli di Jesi
A luscious Verdicchio with layered textures that white Burgundy lovers chase after.
Vignai da Duline Italy | Friuli | Venezia Giulia
Grottafumata
Italy | Sicily | IGT Terre Siciliane
Grottafumata means “smoky caves” and that's exactly what I think about when I swish this around. Grown in volcanic soils, it's a perfect balance between smoky tannins and Sicilian grapes.

Meyer-Fonné
France | Alsace | Alsace
That grapes can be cajoled and fashioned to make such a liquid is miraculous.

France | Alsace | Alsace Grand Cru
Meyer’s 2019 is lovely stuff—fermented dry, full-bodied in style, it shines at table in a multitude of gastronomic settings with kaleidoscopic range.
Albert Boxler
France | Alsace | Alsace
This Pinot Blanc is weightless, sultry, and lengthy as the day is long.
Domaine Giacometti
France | Corsica | Patrimonio
Our best value in Patrimonio offers notes of game and herbs over chewy tannins.
Domaine Giacometti
France | Corsica | Patrimonio
The Cuvée Sarah, an aromatic mix of roasted, smoking herbs with plenty of tannins to chew on, goes down with pleasure and calls for another round (and a grill).

This red, made from the local Montepulciano grape, is aged in tank and bottle to refine its pleasantly rustic personality.

Classic Gevrey, with an emphasis on forward fruit and pleasure, great structure as well.
Vigneti Vecchio
Italy | Sicily
A radiant and rocky red from a brave little vineyard that stands tall and defiant in the shadow of Mt. Etna’s brooding billow.
Domaine Rousset-Martin

A Chardonnay made with regular topping-off of the barrels, to avoid any oxidation, this delivers an exotic nose of candied lemon and spices, focused acidity and a sensation of beeswax and nuts on the palate.
Domaine du Vieux Télégraphe
France | Southern Rhône | Châteauneuf-du-Pape
The majesty of the La Crau vineyard is encapsulated in this wine. I can't think of a grander expression of Southern Rhone terroir to be enjoyed this winter.
Domaine du Vieux Télégraphe
France | Southern Rhône | Châteauneuf-du-Pape
Fresh fennel aromatics followed by a juicy and creamy core of fruit and salt.
