Berto is the story of a distillery in Piedmont representing the classic vermouths of the region. At the time of its purchase in 1906, Carlo Quaglia was its owner, whose great-grandson now directs the distillery. The recipes of the classic sweet vermouths, the blanc and rosso, have been passed down over the years from one generation to the next, each son enhancing Berto’s recipe with their own vision. Bèrto comes from the nicknamed nephew of the chef who resurrected and recreated the Quaglia recipe back in the 1930s. These are vermouths that can stand on their own, but serve well as an inclusion in cocktails. This sweet vermouth is extremely versatile for cocktails—the Manhattan, Negroni, Boulevardier. We also love this one on ice with an orange peel as the ideal aperitivo.

Isole e Olena, Vin Santo del Chianti Classico 2008

Isole e Olena, Vin Santo del Chianti Classico 2008

$60.00

Shipping calculated at checkout.

Variety: Malvasia and Trebbiano

bottle size: 375 ml

It is not enough to say that Isole e Olena is held to the highest regard and winemaker Paolo de Marchi has an unquestionable vision. Fourth generation winemaker Paolo De Marchi studied Agriculture at the University of Turin and worked harvests in California and France before returning to the family estate in 1976. He found much need for improvement and modernization in the Chianti Classico region. One of the first projects involved planting single vineyards of international varieties, such as Chardonnay and Syrah. With these steps, Paolo discovered a way to balance tradition with innovation. Isole e Olena is named for the formation of the two estates that were purchased by the De Marchi family in the 1950s. Over 43 years, he has earned a reputation as “Mr. Sangiovese” and also the “Dean of Chianti.”

This wine has a special method to make it. The freshly harvested Malvasia and Trebbiano grapes are left on straw mats to raisin or hung or dried by hanging on racks indoors. The style ranges from dry to sweet; this style is done sweet and pairs perfectly with biscotti.

Agricola Elvio Tintero, Moscato d'Asti Sori Gramella 2020

$18.00

Shipping calculated at checkout.

Variety: Moscato

Way back in 1900, a Frenchman by the name of Pierre Tintero, found himself in Piedmont in the pursuit of work. He found work in the form of a struggling widow who needed help with her estate; Pierre became an asset to the estate, and ultimately, fell in love with the widow Rosina. Elvio Tinttero, for who the winery is named, began experimenting with the difficult process of frizzante wines in the 80s. Now on to the fourth generation, Marco and Cinzia are running the operations today. The focus of their winemaking is Moscato d’Asti, the slightly fizzy frizzante wine with a distinctive sweetness.

This is single vineyard Moscato d’Asti coming from 30 year old vines. There might not be another single Moscato d’Asti quite like this one; it has terroir and complexity. “Sori” is Piedmontese for a south-facing slope while Gramella is the name of the area in Asti that grows these Moscato grapes. Fermentation only begins when an order is received in order to maintain the freshest wine possible.

Azienda Agricola COS, Aestas Siciliae · 375 mL

$30.00

Shipping calculated at checkout.

Variety: Moscato

Giusto Occhipinti of COS is one of the most critical names in Italy. COS was founded by three friends to make traditional wine with respect for the place the grapes are grown. During their first harvest in 1980, they were the youngest wine producers in Italy. The acronym of their three last names forms “COS.” They were early adopters to Biodynamic farming, starting a movement on the island, which are still golden standards. The friends are hard workers, using an old winery given to them by a family friend and opting to use terracotta vases for ageing, a completely neutral vessel. Sicily has just one DOCG—Cerasuolo di Vittoria; the friends were the first winery to bottle a DOCG wine in Sicily. COS is located in Vittoria, the farthest tip of southeastern Sicily. The area recalls that of Africa, with its climate and land of red, ochre, and yellow tones.

This is a very special bottle that will defy what you think you know about Moscato. A loose translation of "Aesta Sicilae" seems to be a "Sicilian summer." In the Vittoria appellation on the southeastern coast of Sicily are high altitude vines where this Moscato is harvested late. It is fermented on the skins for added structure, and aged in stainless steel to preserve its fresh fruity character, rich texture, and saline-forward minerality. Yes, there is sweetness, but it is balanced in its non-fruit tones and a driving acidity. This bottle can age well for years and pairs excellently with cheeses or fruit desserts.

Christophe Mignon, Ratafia de Champagne

$45.00

Shipping calculated at checkout.

Variety: Pinot Meunier

Bottle Size: 500ml

A demure and bright-eyed philosophe on the subject of Champagne, Christophe employs biodynamics, homeopathy, and phytotherapy in his vineyards, which cover 6.5 hectares and are planted 90% to Pinot Meunier. He is a man all-in on his appreciation of all that is nature- with a particular reverence for the moon-and how to exist symbiotically with it.

Christopher Mignon farms a couple of select vineyards in the Valle de Marne to the Pinot Meunier used in this special wine. The average age of the vines are 44 years. Manual is the only method of harvest as all grapes need to be checked for the right maturity. The process of the ratafia, which refers to the style of a sweet liqueur, includes a fortification of alcohol. The liqueur is made from grape must mutated with alcohol made from the local Champagne area. Once the blend is set, ageing for 20 to 30 months begins in vats and oak barrels. This is a delicate, yet robust dessert wine perfect for fruit or cheese based desserts.

Berto, Aperitivo

$27.00

Shipping calculated at checkout.

bottle size: 1L

Bèrto is the story of a distillery in Piedmont representing the classic vermouths of the region. At the time of its purchase in 1906, Carlo Quaglia was its owner, whose great-grandson now directs the distillery. The recipes of the classic sweet vermouths, the blanc and rosso, have been passed down over the years from one generation to the next, each son enhancing Berto’s recipe with their own vision. Bèrto comes from the nicknamed nephew of the chef who resurrected and recreated the Quaglia recipe back in the 1930s.

This a fragrant infusion of citrus and gentian-based homemade liqueurs. The base spirit is produced from Italian wheat with bitter orange, gentian, ginger, and rhubarb. Make this one into a spritz—add a few ounces of dry sparkling or soda water into a large glass and finish with an orange slice!

Florent Rouve, Vin Jaune Cotes du Jura 2008

$75.00

Shipping calculated at checkout.

Variety: Savagnin

Bottle Size 620ml

Florent Rouve is one of many that wasn’t born into winemaking. His father was a geologist which led to a natural interest in nature. After the family moved to the Jura area, he took on a job working as a forest manager nearby several vineyards. The interest in viticulture bloomed and the rest is history. Florent got his feet wet working with Jean Rijckaert where he continued a minimalist style of winemaking. He then moved on to his own label. Currently, he makes wines in the Jura and Macon regions constantly improving his spirit of tradition and modernism.

Vin Jaune means yellow wine and refers to the Jura’s classic tradition of oxidizing the Savignin sous la velle, or under the veil. This wine comes from the Cotes du Jura and will spend six years in barrique before its release. The oxidizing process will concentrate the nutty flavors, giving the wine texture and preserving its acidity. It’s a beautiful wine to behold. It will do well with many foods, including monkfish, chicken with morels, or aged cheeses like Comte. Perhaps its best known use is the base for the rich “sauce Vin Jaune” that bathes white fish and chicken dishes.

Didier Meuzard, Ratafia de Bourgogne

$60.00

Shipping calculated at checkout.

Variety: Pinot Noir and Gamay

bottle size: 750ml

It’s stories like these that we love to learn and share. Didier Meuzard grew up in Burgundy; at a young age he was already climbing the corporate ladder far from home. After the feeling of burning out got to him, he consulted his doctor and was hastily told to make a quick career change. The change happened when he was walking through the square in his hometown where he came across an old man loading a still will the grape must from the harvest for use in distilled spirits. After questions and tasting, Didier soon was enamored with the entire process; the old man invited him to work the still job over the next couple days. It so happened that Didier had his career change using the old man’s 19th century still allowing the old man to retire. Didier took all the knowledge he could from the man, ultimately transitioning his uncle’s old farmhouse into a home base for distilling and ageing his ratafia.

Didier set out to reimagine the idea of ratafia from start to finish, starting with grape pomace and must from natural growers only. His decision was to make a red ratafia, not the white expression, which is custom for Burgundy. He took it a step further by making his ratafia gentler and more elegant, instead of the typical harsh expression. For his version, he vinifies Pinot Noir and Gamay like he is making red wine. Before fermentation begins and without the addition of sulfur, tanks are placed outside to extend the maceration process while simultaneously keeping yeasts from activating. When the first sign of fermenting begins, he presses the grapes, and adds his own eau de vie; two thirds grape must, one third spirit. The spirit kills the yeast while keeping the integrity of the natural fruitiness of the juice. The mixture goes into enameled tanks for several months followed by hand-bottling. Wonderful for dessert or on its own, and as Didier suggests, slightly cold. It will stay good for several months after opening.

The eel on the label is an ode to the maker’s mark on the old man’s still that Didier inherited—you know, the one dating back to 1860.

Matthiasson, Viognier Late Harvest Napa Valley 2015

$45.00

Shipping calculated at checkout.

Variety: Vigonier

Steve Matthiasson is a California pioneer. Daring to break Napa tradition, Steve and his wife Jill have planted rare, ancient Italian grapes though recognize that Napa loves all the well-known international grapes. A Matthiasson tasting experience, laid out on the picnic table that separates their home from the winemaking operation (with their dog and at least one son stopping by!) shows instantly how the couple reveres the place they farm together. This is real California wine and Matthiasson’s wines are where California wine is headed. Steve Matthiasson is a six-time nominee for a James Beard award, a serious achievement in the wine industry. He has also been named “Winemaker of the Year” by both Food & Wine Magazine and The San Francisco Chronicle. Steve and Jill are long time friends and mentors to Hart & Cru.

This is a one-of-a-kind bottling as it utilizes extra Viognier grapes from one of Steve's vineyard clients. The fruit was left to raisin on its own in the field, harvested, and fermented whole cluster by jumping up and down the fruit to let out enough juice to start a fermentation. When the fermentation stopped naturally, the grapes were pressed, and the juice aged naturally for 3 years. With no sulfite addtion, the juice was able to oxidize naturally, allowing a small amount of vinegar to develop, boosting the acidity. It was bottled unfiltered. Just 95 cases were produced; a Viognier Vin Santo.

Chateau Suduiraut, Sauternes 2010

$75.00

Shipping calculated at checkout.

Variety: Semillon and Sauvignon Blanc

bottle size: 375ml

Château Suiduirat is one of the original Premier Cru chateaux of Bordeaux from the 1855 classification, but the estate’s name of Suduiraut dates back to the year 1580. The chateau was even planted to luxurious gardens planted by Le Nôtre, the gardener to King Louis XVI. The neighboring Barsac region and Sauternes have an extensive history of grape growing dating back to Roman times. Dutch merchants flourished here during the 17th century when they vinified sweet wines without the use of noble rot. In the early 18th century, the practice of harvesting late-ripened grapes began.

Here on the left bank of Bordeaux is the wine-growing region of Graves; within Graves lies the special appellation of Sauternes. It sits on the banks of the Ciron river, near the neighboring Garonne river, both tributaries of the great Gironde river that flows inland from the Atlantic. These rivers create its unique microclimate yielding cool morning fog and sunny warmth later in the day. These factors work together in creating the unique noble rot, or botrytis, that happens to grapes that grow here. Coupled with the prominent gravel-rich soils for which Graves is named for, you’ll have a complex, rich wine worthy of age. Harvest is a laborious process; trips to the vineyard to pick the botrytized grapes extends from late September to early November. The Semillon and Sauvignon Blanc blend goes into barrels for 20 months; 50% of the barrels are new, the other 50% have been used just once. This wine will age for a lengthy time. Serve with fruit-based desserts or with fine cheeses.

Celler de les Aus, Puput - 375 ml

$30.00

Shipping calculated at checkout.

Variety: Mourvedre (also known as Mataro or Monastrell)

The family behind Alta Alella has spent their entire life dedicated to wine; that would be husband and wife duo Josef and Cristina. They’ve always been surrounded by vineyards and bottles; so it is only natural! There is a complete commitment to nature, yet desire to keep with trends. Though the winery is young, the family continually push themselves to learn new things with each vintage. The wines are very low intervention with no added sulfites; little is done to the wines after the grapes have been pressed.

“Puput” is named for this unique bird that flies through vineyards and orchards. The Monastrell grape (locally known as Mataró) is left to over ripen on the vine, but harvested before the grapes begin to raisin. The lengthy maceration process and ageing is all done in one go as the wine spends six months in stainless steel. It is bottled after a light pressing. This is a wine radiating with candied plums, fig, and orange peel with tanginess and depth. It would be a wonderful match for fruit-based desserts, cheeses, or even dark chocolate.

Oremus, Late Harvest Tokaji 2017

$35.00

Shipping calculated at checkout.

Variety: Furmint, Harslevelu, Zeta, and Sarga Muskotaly (Yellow Muscat)

bottle size: 500 ml

Tokaj-Oremus is an unlikely story of a prominent and internationally acclaimed winery in Ribera del Duero, Spain—the name is Bodegas Vega Sicilia. In an ambition to expand and achieve the best, Vega Sicilia founded Oremus in 1993 in the Tokaj (pronounced tok-eye) appellation of Hungary. This area is famed for the noble rot that happens to the grapes due to the climatic conditions instilled by the Bodrog River, not unlike that of the Mosel or Sauternes. The sweet Tokaj wine is quoted as being “the wine of kings and the king of wines,” famously drunk by many celebrated rulers. Oremus is named for one of the most prized vineyards in the region of the same name. The wines are made by Tokaj master Andras Backsos, who artfully blends the botrytized wines into different cuvees, then utilizes different wood ageing on them.

The Late Harvest 2017 employs specific protocols—the bunches are harvested multiple times a day, but only bunches with at least 50% botrytis grapes may go into the wine. This means some of the grapes used have not experienced the noble rot, ensuring the wine will have more balance and acidity than Oremus' other Tokaj wines. Fermentation takes place in new Hungarian oak barrels and then ages in the oak for another six months. This will then age in bottle for another 15 months before its release.

G.D. Vajra, Barolo Chinato

$75.00

Shipping calculated at checkout.

Variety: Nebbiolo grapes from the Barolo Albe DOCG are the base, with the addition of thirty herbs, peel and roots of plants, including Cinchona bark (quinine) which is where the Chinato gets its name.

bottle size: 750ml

The G.D. Vajra winery was created in 1972 by Aldo and Milena Vaira, initially from vineyards planted by Aldo’s father in 1947. The winery was named for Aldo’s father, Giuseppe Domenico Vajra, because at the time Aldo was not old enough to establish the winery in his own name. Today the family has 40 hectares under vine in Barolo and other surrounding appellations. Their prized holdings in Bricco delle Viole were planted in 1949 by Aldo’s grandfather. Milena and Aldo’s three children – Giuseppe, Francesca, and Isidoro – are all involved in the family winery operation situated in the village of Vergne. The family is hard-working, passionate, and caring. Their focus is on building something for their children, caring about the community, and cementing the stories of the regions’ past. The family is longtime friends of Hart & Cru. They continue to uphold their passion for quality wine and the people who surround them.

Berto, Vermouth Bianco

$20.00

Shipping calculated at checkout.

Berto Bianco base: Arneis, Cortese, Trebbiano, Moscato Must; herbs and spices: bitter orange, absinthe, gentian, cardamom, vanilla, coriander, mint, mace, hops, thyme, marjoram, lemon, cinnamon, clove, rhubarb, angelica

bottle size: 1L

Berto is the story of a distillery in Piedmont representing the classic vermouths of the region. At the time of its purchase in 1906, Carlo Quaglia was its owner, whose great-grandson now directs the distillery. The recipes of the classic sweet vermouths, the blanc and rosso, have been passed down over the years from one generation to the next, each son enhancing Berto’s recipe with their own vision. Bèrto comes from the nicknamed nephew of the chef who resurrected and recreated the Quaglia recipe back in the 1930s. These are vermouths that can stand on their own, but serve well as an inclusion in cocktails.

Not recommended for use in a martini; this style is lightly sweet! We like this one served with a splash of club soda or on its own, either preparation served over ice with an orange peel. Ideal as an aperitivo.

Oremus, Tokaji Aszu 6 Puttonyos 2005

$75.00

Shipping calculated at checkout.

Variety: Furmint and Hárslevelű

bottle size: 500ml

Tokaj-Oremus is an unlikely story of a prominent and internationally acclaimed winery in Ribera del Duero, Spain—the name is Bodegas Vega Sicilia. In an ambition to expand and achieve the best, Vega Sicilia founded Oremus in 1993 in the Tokaj (pronounced tok-eye) appellation of Hungary. This area is famed for the noble rot that happens to the grapes due to the climatic conditions instilled by the Bodrog River, not unlike that of the Mosel or Sauternes. The sweet Tokaj wine is quoted as being “the wine of kings and the king of wines,” famously drunk by many celebrated rulers. Oremus is named for one of the most prized vineyards in the region of the same name. The wines are made by Tokaj master Andras Backsos, who artfully blends the botrytized wines into different cuvees, then utilizes different wood ageing on them.

Production of the aszu, aka shriveled wine is only done in exceptional vintages that produce the noble rot where harvest is a long lengthy ordeal. The harvest would typically begin in late October; grapes are harvested by hand, one by one by the best pickers. The process is repeated multiple times. After harvest, the aszu grapes are macerated in the grape must from the first harvest. The sweetness is measured by puttonyo, 25 liter wooden tubs, added to the base wine. The scale ranges from 3 to 6 puttonyos (sometimes 7) for the aszu style. This has the most botrytized grapes added to the mix making it one of the most special and distinguished wines worldwide. The grapes swell from the maceration, naturally causing a little free-run "eszencia" to be pushed out. After a day or two of macerating, these grapes are pressed and the eszencia gets added back little by little. The wine then ages in small wooden barrels for 2 to 3 years. From the process alone, you can see how Oremus maintains excellence among the king of wines.

Clos Figueras, "Forget Me Not" Vermouth

$38.00

Shipping calculated at checkout.

Variety: Garnacha (Grenache) and Carinena (Carignan)

bottle size: 750ml

This is a small project done by duo Christopher and Anne Cannan from their Poblets del Monsant winery outside of Priorat. The vermouth is a specialty of the region of the nearby Catalonia. The base is Grenache and Carignan fortified with over 100 aromatic herbs and spices from the nearby mountains. Even though fortified, the wine only approaches 16% alcohol and ages for 18 months in 500 liter casks. This is ideal aperitif wine enjoyed on ice or on its own with an orange slice. Excellent with olives, nuts, or charcuterie. This could also be used in cocktails like the Manhattan, but the vermouth really shines nicely on its own.
