Mixed Case – Rhone Explorer
The Rhône Valley is the second largest wine region in France (after Bordeaux). It is typically divided into northern and southern halves with particular grapes being predominant in each area. The Northern Rhône is the home to Syrah and here we present St. Joseph as a classic example. In the Southern Rhône, Grenache is king, represented in our case by the (almost) pure expression from Châteauneuf du Pape. Finally, we have a blend of the two grapes in the region of Massif d’Uchaux, part of the Côtes du Rhône appellation that covers essentially the entire region.

Tunella Mixed Case Bordeaux Red 2022

This effort was part of a broader wave of experimentation and modernization in Italian viticulture. Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Cabernet Franc thrived in Friuli’s diverse terroirs and complemented the region’s existing native varieties.

Majolini Franciacorta Brut
Franciacorta is one of the best-kept secrets among lovers of traditionally made sparkling wine. Champagne and Cava are fairly well understood in our market: Franciacorta less so. Not to be outdone, the region stipulates the wine must receive longer lees contact than the minimum required for Cava and Champagne. A case in point is this Brut, which receives 36 months of aging on lees before disgorgement.
