This bottle from one of Germany’s oldest wineries, is a perfect Tuesday night wine for someone wanting to try something fun and off-the-beaten-path. Think Pinot Noir with an earthy, Syrah-like punch. Have fun with this one and pair it with dishes like assorted charcuterie or eggplant Parmigiana.
Bürklin-Wolf was the first German winery to be certified biodynamic by Biodyvin (certifier for Leflaive, Domaine de la Romanée-Conti, and 175 of the top growers across the EU). The grapes are all estate-grown fruit, hand-harvested, fermented with natives yeasts and aged for 1 year in used oak barrels.
Grown high on a west-facing slope above the fog line on the northern ridge of Atlas Peak, this is a true mountain Cabernet. The palate is dense, layered, and impeccably structured, finishing long and refined. It carries the essence of red volcanic soil, wild California chaparral, and sun-drenched hillsides. All we can say is, there’s a reason the The French Laundry picked this gem up.
Organic farming practices, native yeast fermentation, unfined/unfiltered, vegan-friendly and only 1,100 cases produced.
Showing the influence of the breezy and fog-laced Oak Knoll District, this wine offers plush fruit with delicate acidity, and a structure defined by well-ripened, fine-grained tannins. Layered notes of blackberry preserves, stewed cherries, ripe plums, raspberries, violet, cocoa, and spiced wood. Persistent and full on the palate, this is an expressive Zinfandel that is drinking beautifully now, but will continue to improve for the next 5-7 years.
Certified sustainable farming practices. Family-owned winery. Dry-farmed vines and hand-harvested.
If you had to imagine the idyllic setting for a pairing it would be: cheese & charcuterie, pizza, close friends, and your favorite playlist. This wine is a weeknight staple and consistent best-seller.
Certified organic farming practices, woman-winemaker, native yeast fermentation, minimal sulfur addition, and 80% of all electricity used at Massimago is produced by solar panels.
