To the north-east of Saint Emilion are four communes which are identified as separate appellations by their place names. These so-called satellite villages have very different soil types, from limestone-sandstone to gravel plateaus (Graves). Montagne-St.Emilion is directly adjacent to the main appellation and is the largest satellite region. Like the wines of St.Emilion, this classic Bordeaux is also characterised by the Merlot grape variety.

Beautiful Crianza with present fruit, pleasant acidity and well-integrated wood.
The Hacienda López de Haro is located in the heart of the Rioja Alta, near the historic town of San Vincente de la Sonsierra, one of the places with the longest wine-growing tradition. The region offers the best conditions for the Tempranillo grape variety. The vineyards are protected in the north by the Toloño Mountains, the climate in the south is positively influenced by the Ebro River. The Bodegas has 5000 barriques in which the red wines acquire elegance and softness.

The northern Spanish wine-growing region of La Rioja stretches along the Ebro River. The vineyards are cultivated on calcareous and clayey soils. The red wines from Rioja are traditionally always a cuvée, i.e. a blend of different grape varieties. The most important is Tempranillo, followed by Garnacha Tinta (fr. Grenache Noir), Mazuelo (fr. Carignan) and Graciano.

The house of Kessler is one of the few sparkling wine producers in Germany that has its historical roots in the Champagne region. With the expertise he gathered as a director and associate of Veuve Cliquot-Ponsardin, Georg Christian von Kessler founded Germany’s oldest sparkling wine producer on the 1st July 1826. The House of Kessler has always stuck to traditional methods, and used the same bottle fermentation technique. All the top sparkling wines are made according to the méthode traditionelle that the company founder, Georg Christian von Kessler, brought from the Champagne region to Germany exactly 190 years ago. Some of the production is still stored in medieval maturation cellars, where they are shaken by hand.

Silvaner from Franken, in South Germany is a dry white wine known for its mineral characteristics. In 1659, the cultivation of Silvaner was first documented in Germany, namely in Castell  in Franken. This variety can express its terroir almost as well as Riesling. In 1970, 23% of German vineyards were planted with the Silvaner grape, however in 2018, it made up only 4.6% of the country's plantings. Silvaner ripens about two weeks earlier than Riesling, likes average exposure to sunshine and needs moist soil. They are full-bodied, delicate, earthy and fruity tones wine with a mild acidity, makes Silvaner an excellent food match. The aromas often resemble flowers and plants, or melons, yellow plums and apples. 

Grüner Veltliner is Austria's most important wine and recognizable from its spicy "peppery" flavor. The association with green, white and, due to higher ripeness also black pepper is complimented by a fruit-driven bouquet and crisp acidity. 

The classical dry white wine comes from the appellation Graves. Graves (from French: gravelly land) is an important subregion of the Bordeaux wine region. Graves is situated on the left bank of the Garonne river, in the upstream part of the region, southeast of the city Bordeaux. The name Graves derives from ist intensely gravelly soil. The soil is the result of glaciers from the Ice Age, which also left white quartz deposits that can still be found in the soil of some of the top winemaking estates.

Côtes de Bourg is an Appellation d'origine contrôlée (AOC) for Bordeaux wine situated around the small town of Bourg-sur-Gironde near Bordeaux, France. The first vineyards in the area were founded by the Romans. In the Middle Ages, Bourg was a major port for wine and the vineyards developed at the same tempo as the estuary traffic. Red Côtes de Bourg are garnet in colour and are predominantly based on the Merlot grape, blended with smaller quantities of Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc. Some Chateaux still use Malbec as part of the blend. The vine has been established in le Bourgeais for centuries and the current varieties have been selected because of their performance in relation to the soil. The Côtes de Bourg are characterized by the diversity and richness of their soils.
Although the Côtes de Bourg is composed of mainly clay and limestone soils, their make-up is so rich that there is a veritable mosaic of sand and gravel in the area around Pugnac. Three types are predominant. Firstly, the Sienna-red Quaternary alluvium that is quite specific to the region and situated more on the heights: Merlot and Malbec are widely cultivated. Merlot and Cabernet are planted on clay and sandy gravel soils while Merlot is also grown on the widespread areas of clay and limestone.

The red wine from the grape variety Sankt Laurent comes from the Seewinkel region in Burgenland, which is characterised by very dry, stony and mineral soils. The region is one of the hottest and driest wine-growing areas in Austria and thus provides ideal conditions for the production of red wines full of character.

The name "Between Two Seas" of the 23,000-hectare area in the southeast of the French region of Bordeaux derives from the location between the two rivers (not actually seas) Garonne and Dordogne. The predominantly clay and gravel soil is particularly suitable for white wines. They are made from the Sauvignon Blanc, Sémillon, Muscadelle and Ugni Blanc varieties. Monbazillac is an independent appellation of the area and produces noble sweet white wines that are close to those from Sauternes.
The noble sweet wine is based on a method developed in the 18th century in the Rhineland (Trockenbeerenauslese) and Hungary (Tokaj) of handpicking grapes infected with grey mould rot (botrytis cinerea) one by one. The vines grown are 60% Sémillon, 10% Sauvignon Blanc and 30% Muscadelle.

The Domaine des Masques is located 550 m above sea level on the Cengle plateau, protected by the Sainte-Victoire mountain range with an overwhelming panoramic view over the whole valley, completely secluded from the rest of the world. The name comes from the Provençal word for witch, because numerous medicinal plants thrive on the high plateau, which were used generations ago by herbalists and by so-called 'witches', Provençal 'Masco'. Today, this precious domain is managed by Carl and Sophie Mestdagh while preserving Provençal culture and tradition. They work together with the renowned oenologist Yves Cuilleron from Burgundy, who shapes the style of the wines. Of the 195 hectares, only 20 hectares are vineyards and the rest are olive groves, lavender fields and garrigue. A lot of free space for nature and no use of pesticides, herbicides and artificial fertilizers is the philosophy of the owners.

A delicate, pure Ottavianello from Apulia. The Ottavianello grape variety is synonymous with the southern French Cinsault and brings a fresh fruitiness and aromas of coffee and cocoa to the wine.

The Monferrato zone lays claim to being Barbera's birthplace, and records of it growing there as far back as the 13th century. But the hills around Alba and Monforte d'Alba have proved they are capable of growing some particularly fine Barbera, as are parts of the Asti province. Century-old vines still exist in many regional vineyards and allow for the production of long-aging, robust red wines with intense fruit and enhanced tannic content. The best known appellation is the DOCG(Denominazione di Origine Controllata e Garantita) Barbera D'Asti in the Piedmont region.

The entire Rhone Valley is frequently referred to as the Cotes du Rhone. This is also the name of the generic appellation that covers more than 100 communes in the region north of Avignon. The primary varieties cultivated here are Grenache, Syrah, Mourvèdre, Cinsault and Carignan. A number of villages have the right to call their wines Cotes du Rhone-Villages, or to append the actual name of the village. Wines designated Villages are generally a step up in quality

Cerasuolo di Vittoria is the DOCG wine of the Vittoria wine region in Sicily and, for me, is one of the most elegant wines of southern Italy. Classically, Frappato contributes freshness, fruitiness and acidity to Ceraluolo di Vittoria in combination with the full-bodied Nero d'Avola. The typical grape variety distribution is 60% Nero d'Avola and 40% Frappato. Here the ratio is 50/50, which gives the wine precision. The Maggio winery works organically according to Demeter guidelines and produces fruit, grain and vegetables in addition to wine. The orange trees and narrow wheat fields at the edge of the vineyards also serve the purpose of shielding the vines from conventionally working neighbours.

Sicily is considered the cradle of Italian viticulture. Many of today's autochthonous grapes are descended from the ancient grape varieties cultivated at that time.

Quinta do Paral is located near Vidigueira in the heart of Portugal and is spread out over 100 hectares of land.  Its potential lies in the fertile clay, granite and slate soils as well as a unique microclimate create optimal conditions for a unique terroir. The excellent quality of the grape varieties allows to produce high quality wines that express the distinctive character of the Alentejo. With the acquisition of Quinta do Paral by entrepreneur Dieter Morszeck, the winery was realigned in collaboration with chief enologist Luís Morgado Leão and the autochthonous varieties of 40 year old vines experienced a renaissance. Today, the winery focuses on sustainability and craftsmanship combined with great respect for the Alentejo culture. Manual picking, natural grape care and strict yield reduction ensure the high quality of the wines.

Variety of grapes Primitivo Soil principles Calcerous Soil of Corse origin, enriched of red iron oxide (typical of Salento’ soil). Calcerous soils are cool with good water retention. They allow the vines root system to penetrate deeply and provide excellent drainage. After the initial pressing, wine grapes undergo a maceration of 8-10 days. Once the draining and breey flesh is done, the prime must is fermented with the addition of selected yeasts in temperature-controlled tanks (22-23°). At the end of the fermentation process the new wine is finally racked.

Menetou-Salon is a small independent appellation between Cher and Loir. The white wines are single-varietal Sauvignon Blanc. The Farge family vineyard covers 9 hectares.

Individuality is our favorite quality in wine: each year, the same grapes can give very different wines according to the climate, and then the winemaker will also slightly alter the taste of that specific wine, choosing to let the bunch of grapes ripening in the sun one more day or choosing the fermentation technique he prefers, the oak barrel or the stainless steel barrel. Either way, passion is the essential ingredient to make a fine and original wine. That is exactly what Erwin Poller has got: passion and commitment to his authenitic project. He is a master at producing excellent wines and a mindful narrator of the stories behind each bottle of wine. The peculiar labels of his bottles cleverly serve this purpose: telling a unique story of enthusiasm and originality.

A feather! Dozens of chickens scratch and peck among the Valtellina vineyards. They freeliy come from the nearby henhouse and Erwin Poller figured out that they can represent a blessing for the calcareous soil: when the chickens stroll through the vineyard they loosen and turn the soil and help areate it. And since no thing should be wasted, Poller collects the chicken feathers off the ground and uses them to decorate his bottles. 

Fine wine, friendship, respect and individuality: these are the reasons that led us to choose Poller as the representative of Austrian wines in our shop.

Dolcetto ist ein wunderbares Mysterium. Der Name verweist auf Süßigkeiten und deshalb hat es der trockene Rotwein außerhalb des Piedmont, wo ihn die Leute kennen und trinken, schwer. Ich hatte schon vor Jahren gehört, dass Dolcetto einmal teurer war als Barolo. Erst jetzt beginne ich zu verstehen, warum das überhaupt sein konnte. Er ist ähnlich filigran wie gute Nebbiolo, dabei aber frischer und fruchtiger. Er ist zudem selten - beim Keltern sehr anfällig für Brettanomyces und so bei vielen Winzern vermieden.

Das Weingut Virna gehört zum Traditionsweinhaus Giacomo Borgogno.

The hilltops of Sancerre vineyards spread through 14 villages. The two grape varieties  in Sancerre are the Sauvignon Blanc and the Pinot Noir. They have gained the AOC status in 1936. The red and rosé wines, made from the noble Pinot Noir, followed in 1959 when they were awarded the AOC accreditation.

The red wines illustrate the virtues of Pinot Noir. They offer a bouquets of cherry and morellos. 

In the 12th century, cultivation of vines was given added impetus through the combined efforts of the Augustine monks in St-Satur and the ruling counts of Sancerre. At that time Sancerre was famous for its red wine, produced predominantly from the Pinot Noir grape, and exported from the region along the Loire. This wine is often mentioned in accounts of life at the royal court. The famous wine of Sancerre was, in the opinion of Duke Jean de Berry, indeed the finest wine to be found in the entire kingdom.

Silvaner is an old variety that once was the most important grape in Germany. It likes average exposure to sunshine and needs moist soil. Silvaner is generally best enjoyed while it is young. Especially, it is found in Franken, Rheinhessen and Saale-Unstrut. Weingut Höfling is a family-owned winery in Eußenheim situated to the Northwest of Würzburg. Almost all of their vineyards are present on slopes and hilly terrain, and most of all of the work in the vineyards is by hands.  The people in the winery work very hard and with a commitment to produce unique Franconian wines that show the qualities of the region. So they uses domestic wood and hometown barrels and like the most prized Franken wines were traditionally bottled in a Bocksbeutel, a squat green or brown flagon with a round body, is by Höfling too.

In 1844 Luciano Francisco Ramòn de Murrieta, returned to his home near Logrono in Rioja from England, where he  developed an appreciation for wine, recognized that there was nothing wrong with the grapes growing in Rioja's vineyards. The only problem was that the wine was not being produced correctly. Determined to obtain sufficient knowledge on winemaking to make a good modern wine, he went to Bordeaux, where he studied both grape growing and winemaking techniques. Four years later, he began producing wine in Rioja using local grapes, mostly Garnacha and Tempranillo, the 1852 vintage being the first of what today is considered traditional Rioja, a red aged in oak casks, marked by the taste of both fruit and wood, and possessing the potential for extended cellaring.

The Valenti winery is relatively young. It was only founded in 2004 and newly planted on almost 30 hectares. The soils are among the best on Mount Etna and in Sicily in general - Passopisciaro in the municipality of Castiglione di Sizilia. Etna Rosso is a DOC for dry red wines in the Italian region (island) Sicily. Sicily is considered the cradle of Italian viticulture in general. Many of today's autochthonous grapes descend from the ancient grape varieties cultivated at the time. Sicilian wines are mainly based on two of these traditional grape varieties: Nerello Mascalese at Etna Rosso and Nero d'Avola. The Etna wines are reminiscent of Pinot Noir or even more of German Pinot Noir - mineral, with fresh cherry fruit and careful aging in wood.
In the "Storia die Vini d'Italia" (History of the Wines of Italy), published in 1596, wines from here are mentioned and their exceptional quality attributed to the fly ash blown in from Mount Etna.
The grape varieties used are 80% Nerello Mascalese and 20% Nerello Cappuccio.

Burgundy wine (French: Bourgogne) is wine made in the Burgundy region in eastern France. The most famous wines produced here - those commonly referred to as Burgundies - are red wines made from Pinot Noir grapes or white wines made from Chardonnay grapes.

Pure-grained Tempranillo from ancient vine stocks of a long-abandoned vineyard. Rafael Canizares began his project in 2004 to produce first-class wines from once-neglected plots. His Volver is soft and supple, with spicy complexity.

More than 1000 years ago, it was a monastery, but for over 3 centuries now San Leonardo has served as the residence of the Marquis Guerrieri Gonzaga family, its proud custodians. Today, the San Leonardo estate is a garden of vineyards and roses, protected by the massive barrier of the Alps, which blunt the force of the cold northern winds, while the valley floor benefits from, and in turn releases, warmth from nearby Lake Garda. The Tenuta remains an ancient world, in which winemaking practices, still uncompromisingly artisanal, yield wines that are true gems of Italy’s wine tradition, marked by freshness, harmony, and an innate elegance.
