About the Winery
Punset

While the vineyards that form Punset have been farmed by the Marcarino family for generations, it is truly thanks to Marina and her incredible energy that the estate is how it is nowadays. In the 1980s, she decided to pursue organic farming – a demanding choice that was rewarded by becoming the first estate to receive the organic certification in Italy. Her passion for the soil and the environment led her to embrace biodynamics and the agronomic philosophy of Manasobu Fukuoka. From one of the healthiest vineyards in Italy, Marina crafts wines that brim with life, energy, and pure terroir.
Known for the very first certified organic Barbaresco of Italy, Marina continues to show the world that you can preserve tradition and think of the future simultaneously.

This is tasting beautifully now with strawberry, cedar, and hazelnut character. It’s medium-bodied with firm tannins that need to soften. But very pretty already. Drinkable now, but better in two or three years. Try after 2024.

Blue flower, underbrush and wild herb aromas mix with a whiff of tobacco. Racy and linear, the palate offers sour cherry, star anise and a hint of rusted iron alongside taut, close-grained tannins that leave a drying finish.

Lovely nebbiolo built on substantial fruit, fluidity, ease, calm and a well structured frame. A beautiful Barbareso from Neive that has already resolved quite dutifully and is just about ready to drink with philanthropy in the proverbial window. Steady and graceful, a very charming wine that everyone needs to know. Drink 2025-2032. Tasted blind at Nebbiolo Prima January 2024.

About the Winery
Fattoria di Sammontana

The vineyards of Fattoria di Sammontana are located along the hills that border the Arno River, 20km to the south west of Florence. Today, the family - now in its fourth generation - runs the farm according to organic and biodynamic practices, with the intent to fully preserve and sustain the traditions and winemaking history of the land. The property and its 12th century Romanesque church, were once the property of the Medici family.
Heinrich Weingut

Heinrich Winery believes great wines express a true sense of place — something best achieved when vines thrive within a biologically diverse environment where soil vitality and natural symbiosis are preserved. Their ultimate aspiration is to let nature speak through their wines, guided by ethical and qualitative principles that shape every decision. Since converting to biodynamic viticulture in 2006, their goal has been to make the vineyards more resilient, vital, and diverse. Embracing minimal intervention, all wines ferment spontaneously, often spending weeks on the skins and aging unadulterated on their lees, primarily in used wooden barrels. Time — whether weeks or years — plays the central role in shaping their character, allowing each wine to develop balance and a distinctive aromatic profile. Through careful observation and minimal influence, they remain committed to crafting authentic, genuine wines that faithfully reflect their origin.
Stéphane Aviron

Stéphane Aviron can be considered a pioneer in his approach to winemaking in Beaujolais, however he would just tell you that he’s simply returning to the traditional practices that have always made fantastic Gamay wines. Sustainable viticulture, extremely old vines and classic Burgundian techniques. He focuses on the Beaujolais village crus, all but forgotten gems of vineyards when the nouveau craze took over, which are the best sites for unique, expressive and terroir driven wines. All of the fruit is sourced from old vines (40+ years), so seeing Vieilles Vignes on the label is a rite of passage, not a privilege. Authenticity and a distinctly Beaujolais style of winemaking is what sets Stéphane apart from the rest.

Ripe, fleshy and golden chardonnay for Maison de Bellene’s 2023, apropos of the season as a gift to all. So ripe in fact you get the apple notes throughout, from blossom to yellow fruit crunch while freshness is caught at peak. The palate is a bit tighter wound than expected and so another six months should see to this old vines cuvée coming into its own. Drink 2025-2027. Tasted March 2025.

Good substance and depth for 'basic' Bourgogne, thanks to the old vines - in this case from a single 3.7ha site with average vine age of 67 years. It shows quite ripe cherry/raspberry fruit, a touch of violet, barrel toast, spice and vanilla. Although not specified it seems to me to be more a Cotes de Nuits style. It is medium weight, quite firm and voluminous with good acidity and some heat. More mineral. Excellent length. Best 2027 to 2035.

Leaning Post

A leaning post is what you find at the beginning of a row of grapes, anchoring the wires that are the frame-work for growing grapevines. It is the beginning of an obsession to translate a time and place into liquid. Leaning Post wines take you to that beginning by finding small, unique plots of land in Niagara and putting them in bottle. Because after stripping away all the fancy buildings and high-tech equipment you are left with a place on this earth that grows wine unlike any other. When you taste that in a glass you just know it. Nadia and Ilya have had to rely on the support of family, friends and financial institutions to make the dream of owning a winery a reality. Leaning Post began as a virtual winery and is so proud to now have the quaint tasting room at 1491 Hwy 8 on their home property in Winona, Ontario.
Ilya and Nadia are the brains and passion behind Leaning Post Wines. It started with a dream to take unique, interesting single vineyard blocks in Niagara and turn them into distinctive, terroir driven wines. Nadia and Ilya first met in their hometown of Winnipeg, MB where their passion for wine and each other was born.
Ilya has been a winemaker in the Niagara Region for the last 17 vintages working at Daniel Lenko Estate Winery, Foreign Affair and now at Leaning Post Wines. Ilya is also a consulting winemaker at the Good Earth Winery. Ilya’s true passion in life is to make world renowned wines from Niagara that really showcase the distinct terroir that Niagara offers.

Château Haut Grelot is located in Saint Ciers Sur Gironde, approximately 50 kms north of Bordeaux, on the right bank of the Gironde Estuary. It was established by the Bonneau family in 1922 and now run but the 4th Generation. Today Château Haut-Grelot comprises 58 hectares of vineyards and is run by Céline and Julien, who was recently awarded the title 'Best Young Talent' in Bordeaux.

This is a youthful, slightly brittle pinot that could use a year or two in bottle. The nose is nicely lifted and promising with classic pinot cherry fruit, considerable barrel toast and spice, and an evergreen forest scent. It is mid-weight, quite firm and well balanced with 12.5% alcohol, some minerality and again those chippy tannin, drying the finish. The length is very good to excellent. Best 2028 to 2032.

Bellene's 2024 Bourgogne is showing beautifully at the moment, still fruity but silky smooth, with a fine range of flavours on offer from bright red fruit to savoury-herbal notes. Succulent and delicious, a triumph from this challenging vintage and attractively priced to be sure. To enjoy over the next 1-2 years. Tasted June 2026.

This is a classic if lush expression of pinot noir, with notes of dark cherries, ripe strawberries, juicy black raspberries, and savoury dried herbs. Oak influence adds dimension here, in the shape of woody spices like nutmeg, cloves, and all-spice. Medium bodied, the palate is ripe, with an appealing impression of sweet fruit, grainy tannins, and juicy acidity. The finish is long, ending on a spice note. I would drink this over the next year or two. Tasted June 2026.

Azienda Agricola Tornatore

Out of a Sicilian family heritage that traces back to the 17th century, the Tornatore’s Mount Etna wine ventures began in 1865. Today the family’s operations are headed by Giuseppe Tornatore, a businessman whose expertise led to the acquisition of some of the region’s finest north-facing vineyards in the early 2000’s. That heritage and the Tornatore’s profound respect and understanding of the land is showcased in wines that capture the essence of Etna, deftly balancing concentrated flavors, complexity, freshness and refinement.
The company lies in the northern side of Mount Etna, the highest active volcano in Europe. The soils have volcanic origin and were created through the disintegration of lava, ash and stones from previous volcanic eruptions. The climate on the northern side of the Etna is characterized by mild temperatures, and more rain fall reflecting the influence of the Volcano. The combination of soil, climate and the skill of the winemakers, have made the northern slope of Etna an ideal area for the production of high-quality wines. “Our vineyards and our winery are only a few kilometers from our family home. Our entire family is rooted there. We have the greatest respect for this region, and we believe we have a responsibility to be stewards of Etna and to reflect its distinct character in our wines.” - Giuseppe Tornatore

This provides a beautiful, bright aromatic display with lifted cranberry, botanicals, nutmeg and other spices. It is medium weight, intense and juicy with fresh acidity, warmth and all round great energy. Tannins are modest but firm but in a constructive way. The length is excellent. Best now to 2028. It is 100% nerello mascalese from a single basaltic vineyard at 700 metres on the north slope of Mt. Etna.

Grown on the northern slopes of Mount Etna, this lively, mineral-tinged red is brimming with fresh red berry and cherry flavours, with a lightly spiced undertone of rosemary, baking spices and wild herbs.

Château de La Chaize

Château de La Chaize is among the oldest, most historic estates in Burgundy’s Beaujolais region. Cared for by the same family for nearly three and a half centuries, the estate has been passed on to new owners, the Gruy family, who are equally committed to managing the estate with the utmost care, while implementing an ambitious environmental plan. Among the many initiatives is the conversion of all vineyards to organic farming, the adoption of precision viticulture, reducing carbon their carbon footprint, and recycling every by-product from viti- and vinicultural activity, to achieve zero waste.
Founded in 1670 by the seneschal of Lyon François de la Chaize d’Aix, the main Château de la Chaize building and gardens were completed by Jules-Hardouin Mansart and André le Nôtre, respectively architect and gardener of the Château de Versailles. Château de la Chaize is among the oldest, most historic estates in Burgundy’s Beaujolais region. Boasting over 250 acres of vineyards, it is also one of the largest. It is today considered one of the most innovative estates in Burgundy. Among its forward- thinking practices is the adoption of eco-friendly farming techniques, commonly referred to as Agriculture Raisonnée. Chemical treatments have been reduced to a strict minimum, for example, and the growing of grass between rows has been re-introduced to enrich the soil and reduce erosion.

This old vine 1er Cru Savigny shows surprisingly deep colour. The nose is lifted, fragrant and floral (lily), with very ripe strawberry/cherry jam, baked plum (actually thought of grenache) barrel spice and toast. It is a mouthful - rich, warm, smooth and refined at the same time. Real power here, with fine tannin balance - almost seamless, and excellent length. Some minerality as well. The length is outstanding. A real mouthful!

This is a typically exuberant, zesty NZ sauvignon blanc, but the nose is a bit downplayed with a touch of masking sulphur, that should recede with bottle age. Otherwise, expect the typical passion fruit, grapefruit, fresh herbs of the genre. It is medium weight, well balanced and lively. Some green chestnut, lime peel bitterness on the finish. The length is excellent. Chill well. Tasted May 2026.

Medal score at the 2026 National Wine Awards of Canada. Tasted blind June 2026 in Niagara.
2022 Vintage - Featured in Vine Routes
From vineyards located within a warmer micro-territory (called South Bay) in the cooler Prince Edward County appellation, this pinot gris is refreshingly lighter on the ABV (12%/vol.) with a quite noticeably creamy and rich texture to it – largely attributed to malolactic fermentation and cold-stabilization methods. The winemaking team also uses an Alsatian yeast strain and fermented one quarter of the juice in neutral French oak, with the other 75 percent in steel tank. The result is a complex wine, with an intriguing flavour profile, including ripening pear and a freshened mineral characteristic that really sets this apart. I even get the hint of nutmeg that I’m being told to look for in this. Will develop further with a bit more time in bottle, that I am certain of.

The Farm

“The Farm” is a 10-acre vineyard in Niagara’s Twenty Mile Bench, planted to Pinot Noir. The Neudorf vineyard was originally planted with Pinot Noir in 2000 for Le Clos Jordanne and aptly named “La Petite Colline”, meaning “little hill”, a nod to the gentle slopes that permeate the plot.
The property is rooted in traditions of gathering family & friends, and where Peter and Dora Neudorf call home. The cellar door opens once a year for guests to taste new releases, and enjoy live music and local food.

It's splendidly expressed on the nose with green apple, rockmelon, lemon zest, and jasmine aromas, leading to a succulent palate filled with youthful fruit intensity, finishing long and vibrant. At its best: now to 2027.

Fine, delicate and fragrant in the Volnay style, Potel's '23 Les Grand Poisots is a sleek and fluid wine yet with firm underlying girding, fine-grained but high-tensile tannins, a sort of carbon fiber-like structure, light but very strong. I love the morello cherry fruit and the saliva-inducing acids, and especially the wet limestone and bloody-iron-tinged flavours. Length is very good to excellent. This should reach drinking peak relatively early I'd say given the current appeal, or hold into the mid-late 30s

About the Winery
Land of Hope

The Land of Hope Trust project started in 2007. Initiated against the background of many “smoke and mirrors” projects purporting to uplift Previously Disadvantaged Individuals (PDI), although very few of which seem to genuinely do so. The direct and sole beneficiaries of this Trust are the previously disadvantaged individual employees of Radford Dale and their children and dependents.
What makes this project unique? Well, the primary objective of the trust is educational. The long-term social upliftment through the gift of high quality education, skills development and the power of developing knowledge. The Trust is making it possible to send Land of Hope employees' children to schools they could only dream about when they were young, which they were not allowed to attend, and which will give the next generation the intellectual ability and the expertise to ensure the positive evolution of our economy their democracy and community.

About the Winery
Heinrich Weingut

Heinrich Winery believes great wines express a true sense of place — something best achieved when vines thrive within a biologically diverse environment where soil vitality and natural symbiosis are preserved. Their ultimate aspiration is to let nature speak through their wines, guided by ethical and qualitative principles that shape every decision. Since converting to biodynamic viticulture in 2006, their goal has been to make the vineyards more resilient, vital, and diverse. Embracing minimal intervention, all wines ferment spontaneously, often spending weeks on the skins and aging unadulterated on their lees, primarily in used wooden barrels. Time — whether weeks or years — plays the central role in shaping their character, allowing each wine to develop balance and a distinctive aromatic profile. Through careful observation and minimal influence, they remain committed to crafting authentic, genuine wines that faithfully reflect their origin.

Maison Arnaud Baillot

Arnaud Baillot is a young winemaker based in Beaune, in the heart of the Côte de Beaune. Owner and winemaker, he has been working with lutte raisonnée since 2014 and supplements his Domaine with judicious grape purchases.
As a winemaker, he is passionate about the diversity of wine profiles Burgundy has to offer. So he teams up with Laure Hudelot-Noellat, his wife and granddaughter from the eponymous Domaine, based in Chambolle-Musigny. Together, they produce a comprehensive range of wines, from regional appellation to Grand Cru. Arnaud is very keen to get the best out of every stage of the process, which means he selects the origin of his grapes with the utmost care. He oversees the entire winemaking process, carefully selects his barrels according to the nuances he wishes to bring (wood origin, cooper, toasting, grain, etc.) and finally applies his own ageing policy according to the cuvées... nothing is left to chance, because the treasures a terroir brings are to be earned!

93 Points (2023) - Michael Godel
Les Quartiers De Nuits is yet another minuscule plot of a vineyard identified and chosen by Nicolas Potel, not quite one-third of a hectare, planted 96 years before this 2023 harvest. An early one for the most part, before the cold winds move in and ahead of Grand Cru neighbours like that of Echezeaux and Clos de Vougeot. There is a bit of mean intensity and streak in this singular, lieu-dit cru of a Bourgogne. The tannins are fierce, they lash upon the palate with severity and therefore the necessity to give time will become the requiem to success. Les Quartiers De Nuits is no shrinking violet and in fact the mix of botanical verdancy and bitters make up a formula which could never be solved in the first few years. The stuffing can’t be denied and the objective is perspicuous. Stay clear for a while. Drink 2028-2035.

Intense, vibrant sauvignon with lemongrass, red capsicum and passionfruit flavours supported by a mouthwatering cut of tangy acidity. High energy wine with a perfect sweet-sour balance giving the wine pleasing tension.
Drink date: 2023-2027.

From Dillon’s Point, in the lower Wairau Valley near the confluence of the Wairau and Opawa rivers. Vineyards began to be planted in the early 1990s and today the sub-region is recognized for pretty classy sauvignon blanc. As this Ahi Kā surely is, green grassy and green tree fruit juicy, come from a producer that means “keeping the home fires burning.” This example of sauvignon blanc does indeed keep things stable and provides the necessity of good drinking sauvignon blanc. Drink 2026-2028. Tasted July 2026.

There is a wee whiff of sulphur at first but aeration should solve that. Leaving an intriguing tapestry of ripe guava/passion fruit, lime, spearmint and grassy notes - all very much signature Marlborough. It is medium weight, a bit heftier and thankfully less shrill than some, with some warmth (13%) and sweetness. But all distributed and balanced. This is generous with excellent length. Tasted July 2026
