Italy: Bowled over by Barolo and Brunello

 
Azienda Agricola Azelia


“…wines from [Luigi] Scavino’s estate, Azelia, can hold their own with the very best of the region. The wines combine power and elegance with a level of virtuosity matched by few in the region…” –The Wine Advocate
 
“Azelia remains one of the undiscovered jewels in Barolo.” – Antonio Galloni, Vinous

With Azelia, quality begins not with marketing, but with environmentally sensitive, integrative vineyard management, organic farming, and very minimalist oenological techniques. Although a branch of the famed Scavino Barolo clan, they do not coast on the family name. Independent of their provenance, these are fantastic Barolos at unbelievable prices.

Westrey Wine Company:
 
The Stories of Old Friends
 

Unlock Your Savings Now
 
Founded in 1993 by Amy Wesselman and David Autrey, Westrey is a core producer in the Dundee Hills. But you’d be forgiven for either never having heard of them or having simply forgotten about their existence.
 
Amy and David are farmers, first and foremost. They’re not bombastic enough to chase the ephemeral fame of trendy styles. Instead, they live their time-tested values. They prize sustainability, sourcing exclusively organic or LIVE-certified vineyards. Their fruit is all dry-farmed, too, because they believe it produces “better wines and respects the scarcity of water.” Their estate vineyard, Oracle, was originally planted in 1977 and revived, quite literally, by Amy and David after they purchased the property in 2000.

The Garagistes hard at work

Alex Götze and Christoph Wolber met while travelling in Beaune, bonding over their love of Pinot Noir (Spatsburgunder in Germany). Over many glasses of red Burgundy, they concocted a plan: buy up the worst vineyards in Wolber’s home town of Baden that no one in their right mind would farm. Maybe it doesn’t sound like a smart plan, but their faith was rewarded: by planting Pinot Noir in Baden’s worst vineyards, they have managed to stress the grapes properly, as their favorite .
