Ca' La Bionda, Valpolicella Classico 2021

$20.00

Shipping calculated at checkout.

Variety: Corvina, Corvinone, Rondinella and Molinara

There are many regions in Italy that show the detrimental hand of western trends. Amarone is, and should be, one of the great wines of Italy. However, finding one that still tastes genuinely Italian can be tricky. Ca’La Bionda is located in the historic “classic” zone of the Valpolicella region. Founded in 1902, the family’s focus has always been on the grapes and the vineyard work. They presently cultivate 25 hectares. Alessandro Castellani is the current, fourth-generation winemaker. His wines are held in six-foot-tall oak casks until ready to drink. Certain wines are aged longer than others. But at every step of the way, attention is given to tradition, as opposed to modern, quick winemaking. Alessandro’s wines rarely receive much mainstream press, which is fine by him.

This is a more elegant version of Valpolicella, the classic blending of the usual grapes. The fruit comes from the “classic” zone of Valpolicella. Fermentation is done first in stainless, then in bottle for another three months before the wine is released.

Ampeleia, IGT Maremma 2019

$55.00

Shipping calculated at checkout.

Variety: Cabernet Franc

Ampeleia was born only just in 2002 from the collaboration and friendship between noteworthy icons—Elisabetta Foradori, Thomas Widmann, and Giovanni Podini. They created a place where they could not only develop an agricultural project but also fulfill a common dream. The estate comprises different plots of land, each located far apart and on different altitude levels—their mission is to create variables in altitude, soil type and microclimatic conditions. Variety is the spice of life, at least Ampeleia, representing the project’s constant quality and willingness to discover. The grape varieties that have been planted are common to Mediterranean vineyards reflecting the tradition of growing multiple varieties in the same vineyard. Today, the estate extends over three altitude levels and covers 35 hectares of vineyard.

This is high altitude Cabernet Franc from the Ampeleia di Sopra vineyard. The grapes are fully destemmed and fermentation is done in cement tanks and large oak tasks, resulting in a pure, clean, and fruity wine. The wine then ages for two years in bottle before it is released.

Roland Lavantureux, Petit Chablis 2022

$40.00

Shipping calculated at checkout.

Variety: Chardonnay

In the portfolio of Kermit Lynch, there are the old reliables; Domaine Roland Lavantureux is the most reliable of the old reliables. Roland is notorious for his no-nonsense personality. One of the best examples of this is in a quote to Kermit himself: “I don’t know why the INAO named some vines ‘Chablis’ and others ‘Petit.’ When I stand in the middle of my vineyard, the row to my left is Chablis, to the right it is Petit Chablis, but you can’t see any difference.” With this mentality, his ability to remain consistent in quality to both Chablis and Petit Chablis is unparalleled. Today, Roland’s two sons have taken over the domaine; Arnaud has taken the task of vines and cellar while David takes the lead in marketing and sales.

The vines for this Chablis come from several sites averaging about thirty years old. The wine is fermented and aged mostly in stainless steel, though 30% of the wine is aged in neutral barrels. This Chablis is meant to be fruity and fresh; the ideal aperitif!

Arnaud Lambert, Saumur Blanc 'Clos David' 2020

$50.00

Shipping calculated at checkout.

Variety: Chenin Blanc

Domaine Arnaud Lambert, spearheaded by Arnaud himself, was established through the merger of two labels in 2017: Domaine de Saint-Just (his family domaine within the Saumur-Champigny appellation) and Château de Brézé (a historic Saumur estate with an enviable collection of vineyards that the Lamberts signed a twenty-five year contract starting with in 2009.) Through his vinification of individual plots, such as Clos David, Arnaud highlights the diversity of soils and individual sites within the Saumur appellations. His farming is all done biodynamically and his winemaking champions minimal intervention techniques.

Planted on tuffeau limestone bedrock with topsoil composition of sedimentary and alluvial depositions, Clos David shows off the intense minerality of the terroir. Harvested by hand and pressed whole cluster for 4.5 hours. The juice is then fermented in in 50% in 30hl foudre (bought in 2012) and 50% in 2-3 year old French oak barrels.

Matthiasson, Schioppettino 2021

$65.00

Shipping calculated at checkout.

Variety: Schioppettino

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.

Schioppettino, also known as Ribolla Nera, is a rare ancient grape originating in the Friuli region of Italy and of Slovenia. Related distantly to Syrah and Pinot Noir, Schioppettino shares a peppery nose. Grown in the Matthiasson “home” vineyard of Western Oak Knoll in Napa Valley from 25 year old vines, this wine sees minimal oak to retain its aromatics.
