About the Winery
Pago Aylés
Pago Aylés was founded by Federico Ramón, who in 2003 began his dream of classifying this unique land as the first Vino de Pago in the Aragon region. In the Spanish wine quality pyramid, the Pago stands as a top tier or grand cru winery. Just before Federico died, his dream came true in 2010, as Aylés became the 10th Vino de Pago in Spain.
Today his three children continue to produce wines from this special land. The vineyard site has a long history of winemaking, dating back to the 12th century by Spanish monks. Influenced by the River Huerva and the Monte San Pablo mountain, the soil is a mixture of clay, limestone and chalk – ideal for making high-quality wine. Caves, ravines and old river beds can be found all over the estate, which is brimming with wildlife.

A deliciously ripe and fruity, sweet oak-inflected red from Aragón, a blend ("coupage") of merlot, garnacha, tempranillo and cabernet sauvignon. Dark plummy fruit, vanilla and dark chocolate flavours dominate with a dash of savoury herbs . I find it still a little tight and astringent, and would cellar another 2-3 years for additional softening; the sweet fruit will appeal widely no doubt. Bonus: certified organic. Tasted January 2026.

Labelled as Vino de Pago, this wine comes from a single estate and is an organic blend of merlot, garnacha, tempranillo, and cabernet sauvignon grown on clay and calcareous soils at 500–700 m in Aragon, northeastern Spain. It shows some oak influence and a warming 14.5% alcohol, yet the palate is surprisingly balanced, filled with zesty, jammy red and black fruit. Licorice, white pepper, cedar spice, concentrated violet, and a hint of black tapenade add complexity. Very good length completes a wine that’s generous in flavour but lighter than expected on the finish. Tasted January 2026.

Unexpected would indicate that strange things are forecast to occur but this garnacha from the large and historical Finca Aylés estate in Cariñena pretty much does the expected. Delivers dark varietal fruit with a mineral streak as salty as it is firm. Crunchy garnacha, full bodied and flavoured for the foreseen and well, expected. Garnacha of empowerment, helping consumers trust themselves and their palates and opinions, ultimately enabling them to confidently make wine purchasing decisions. Drink 2025-2027. Tasted March 2025.

From a large and distinguished vineyard, this is a very smart and delicious garnacha. The ripe sweet almost candied nose black cherry, pomegranate juice is also quite floral. Oak is nicely in the background with a hint of mocha and spice. It is quite full bodied and rounded, but also has enough warmth and acidity to give it a sense of freshness and stability. The length is excellent. Might be a bit confected for some. Chill a bit. Last tasted Jan 2026

This vegan garnacha from Aragón is almost lavishly fruity, with an engaging array of red fruit, some lightly candied. Undertones of woody spices and violet petals add to its appeal. The palate is supple, with juicy acidity, subtle warmth, and a gentle viscosity that lends it a sense of fullness. I really like the woody herbal note that lingers on the long finish. Bold, easy-to-like, and full of varietal character, this garnacha should ideally be enjoyed over the next year or so. Tasted January 2026.

A full-throttle yet effortlessly pleasing and typical garnacha. White pepper, violets, strawberry, and black currant lead the charge. Clean, stylish, and modern, with a mouthwatering degree of juiciness. At 13.5% alcohol, it sits on the moderate end for the variety, making it notably more food-friendly than the norm. The spice profile is clearly grape-driven, with little to no influence from oak. Tasted January 2026.

About the Winery
Azienda Agricola Jasci
Located on the hills that rise 250 meters above sea level from the Adriatic Sea just above the seaside resort town of Vasto in Abruzzo, here the Jasci family has been growing grapes and producing wine for three generations. Starting In the early 1960s, Pasquale and Maria turned the focus of their farm to producing estate wines.
In 1980, their son Giuseppe decided to convert the farm to organic, becoming one of the first ten wineries in all of Italy to be certified. Today led by grandson Donatello Jasci and his wife Piera, the family is the second largest single grower in all of the region. Donatello’s approach in the cellar is consistent with his farming: clean and simple. The wines see little or no oak and have a purity of flavor that is rare at the price.

Will age a bit indeed with this ’22 montepulciano having changed not an iota with nearly two further years in bottle. Superior concentration and hard to find a gaggle its equal at this price. Last tasted February 2026.
Classic perfume and style, salty upfront for montepulciano with florals part fresh and part dried. Rich as need be, full and substantial on the mid palate and then a return to savoury and also salty at the finish. Really good barrel usage and integration. Clean and classic. Will age a bit. Drink 2025-2029. Tasted March 2024.

This is an inky, pleasantly perfumed montepulciano d'abruzzo that is organically grown. Fruit flavours span the red and dark end of the spectrum, joined by herbal and wildflower notes. Relatively approachable and supple, the full-bodied palate is populated with fine-grained firm tannins and balanced acidity. A long, flavourful finish features notes of oak spice and cedar alongside supple dark fruit. Featuring sensible oak influence, this is a well-made and even-keeled montepulciano that is ready to drink but can also be cellared for another 2-3 years. Last tasted February 2026.

About the Winery
Ca' del Monte
Ca del Monte is situated on the hillsides overlooking the village of Negrar, in the heart of Valpolicella. It has belonged to the same family for generations, and is now run by brothers Umberto and Giuseppe Zaconte. There’s nothing fancy about this place. The house and winery are modest - and are attached to a 17th century monastery.
The estate is approximately 50 acres, and its 15-65 year old vines lie on gentle slopes at 800-900 meters. They grow on four soils including clay, limestone, red volcanic soil with red stones, and “Toar,” a green volcanic soil. The vineyards of Ca Del Monte are planted with 20-40 year old vines of Corvina, Rodinella and Molinara grapes that are planted in poor soils that stress the vines and nurture the fruit. All of the farming is done traditionally and non-certified organic.

Maturing, classically-styled ripasso here from the reliable house of del Monte, supple, smooth, well-balanced, juicy and silky. Flavours span the expected mature dark cherry spectrum, buffeted by gently resinous, old wood influence, with a mix of toasted almonds and dried herbs in an inviting ensemble. Length and depth more than deliver in the category. Fully ready to drink. Tasted January 2023.

Über traditional so far as Ripasso is concerned and exaggeratedly so due to an extra couple of years got behind this corvina and friends by Ca’ del Monte. Persistent though, a juicy, juicy version with plenty of freshness and generosity with thanks to bright acids keeping the energy alive. Nice Ripasso indeed to serve a purpose in our lives, mainly to match a good braise in these cold winter months. Drink 2023-2025. Tasted January 2023.

More refreshing than heavy, this well-balanced Ripasso style Valpolicella is effortlessly drinkable. The tannins have mellowed but still give a healthy bit of tack to the palate. Features an appealing degree of verve, authenticity and notable length. Gracefully matured and ready to drink. Best now to 2025. Tasted January 2023.

About the Winery
Bodegas Puiggròs
Since 1843, the Puiggros family has been producing wines from their own vines in the Odena region of Catalunya for the family and close friends. Over generations they had come to realize that their vineyards and techniques were something worth sharing with the world. A sincere dedication to the terroir in their zone and the indigenous varieties that grow there, allows them to constantly discover ways to unlock all of the magic that lies within their land.
Starting with conscious and clean farming in the vineyard, they hand-harvest only the best fruit for their production, and ferment each vineyard separately in varying vessels to accentuate what the vines have to show; some in stainless steel, and many in clay amphora of differing sizes. All the while seeing very little sulfur use (if any) until bottling. Puiggros is pushing the quality of northeastern Spain's wines forward, and doing so in a clean and unique way.

Exedra Negre is 100% Garnatxa (Catalan for grenache) planted on limestone and clay soils at 500 meters. Part is fermented in large concrete, part in amphora. It pours fairly pale but bright ruby. The aromas are classic grenache strawberry jam with fine, subtle array of tobacco, pepper and herbs in the background. It is medium weight, fresh, balanced and almost refined - not really showing its 14.5% alcohol except for a slight kirsch flavour to the fruit on the finish. The length is excellent. Chill a bit. Tasted January 2026.
91 points - Michael Godel
Warm vintage for garnatxa aged in clay-pot (amphora) from Odena’s limestone and clay soils at 500m in the shadow of the Montserrat massif. Consistent sweet red candied fruit aroma, always alluring and quite naturally so. The amphora does not take over the character but seems to simply allow the land to do the talking. Drink 2026-2029. Tasted January 2026.
90 points - John Szabo, MS
Pure grenache vinified and aged in amphora, the wine shows oxidative aromatics, candied/dried fruit and shoe polish, more advanced than one would hope for at this relatively young age. The palate is nonetheless, silky-smooth and broadly appealing, soft and round as it is, generous without heaviness. I like the saline nature that encourages another sip and brings the fruit and wild herb flavours into sharper relief. Acids are equally helpful in framing the ensemble. In the end it works nicely; drink over the near term to capture the fading freshness. Tasted January 2026.

The terroir of the 37 hectares faces South on clay and limestone soils which guarantees a perfect maturity to the Malbec.For four generations, the Gayraud family has given the greatest care to the vines as well as the wine-making. This is the key to get the purest expression from the terroirs.

The aromas here are not showy, but I do like the way they easily harmonize malbec's mulberry fruit with fine oak, cedar, violet and dried herbs/hay characteristics. There is a similar sense of equilibrium on the palate, balanced alcohol (13%), just right acidity and sandy tannin (in a region historically notorious for tannic reds). A bit dry on the finish, so you may want to age it a bit, but its evenness makes it approachable now. Very good to excellent length. Tasted August 2026
91 points - John Szabo, MS
Lamartine's classic Cahors is lovely in the 2022 vintage, resolved and velvety at this stage, polished, with appealing floral-violet varietal character mingling with black and blue fruit and creamy, integrated barrel influence. I especially like the texture, the ripeness and resolve of the tannins and the gentle acid framing. Length is very good to excellent in the category. Serious, well-made wine for the money; drink or hold as deep as the mid-thirties. Malbec blended with 5% merlot. Tasted August 2026.

Crunchy cahors, munificent malbec, and what feels like a salty maritime influence involved. A step beyond basic to be sure, well integrated wood, quite resolved and ready for action. Drink 2026-2028. Tasted August 2026.

Based on 50% Grenache Blanc and 50% Roussanne from the galets roulés of Cabrières and Palestor, the 2024 Châteauneuf Du Pape Extrait Blanc was vinified half in demi-muids and half in concrete tanks, then aged 10 months in the same vessels. It offers brilliant aromatics of white peach and stone fruits with a richer, layered, medium-bodied style. The wine has beautiful acidity, a pure, focused, elegant mouthfeel, and outstanding length. This absolutely brilliant white will have 20 years or more of overall longevity. There are a scant 100 cases produced. Drink 2025-2045.
