Organic + Biodynamic Wine & Spirits

The Queen of Teroldego, at Her Finest

Elisabetta Foradori is one of Italy's most visionary winemakers — a pioneer who single-handedly rescued the ancient Teroldego grape from obscurity and elevated it to world-class status. Farming biodynamically in the dramatic foothills of the Dolomites in Trentino, her minimal-intervention approach produces wines of extraordinary purity, character, and sense of place.

This is the estate's flagship red: a wine that is simultaneously wild and precise, generous and structured — a benchmark for what indigenous Italian varieties can achieve in the right hands.

67 Wine Review

"Savory, earthy and slightly wild in style, Elisabetta Foradori sculpts one of Italy's finest natural wines. Luscious dark fruits and violets on the nose pick up some spice and wild herbs on the palate. Medium bodied with good depth of flavor and detailed complexity that winds through the finish with purity and a touch of exotic funk."

Winemaker Description

Don Miguel Vineyard. Named after the late patriarch of the Torres family, this organic vineyard is located in the Green Valley- the coolest, foggiest region of the Russian River, only ten miles from the Pacific. Displays vibrant, luscious fruit reminiscent of blackberries and dark cherries.

This is a wine of precision, finesse and balance, rich and opulent on the palate, with supple tannins. It will continue to develop and gain complexity with age, at least for another 10 years. 

Winemaker Description

The 2019 Bernardot is dark and austere with wonderful nuances of ripe red fruit. Tannins are very silky and delicate in this 2019, showing a lot of finesse, typical from the Barbaresco area. It’s an elegant and very expressive Barbaresco. One of the favorite vineyards of winemaker Alessandro Ceretto.

Expert Reviews

Wine Advocate Monica Larner 95 Points writes | The organic Ceretto 2019 Barbaresco Bernadot shows a broader character and a more open-knit personality compared to the Asili. There is a lot of dark fruit, spice, truffle and earth to frame the medium-build of this elegant wine.  (2019).

Wine Spectator 94 Points | A bright red, delivering a core of cherry and raspberry fruit supported by earth, mineral and wild herbs. Intense, complex and dense, this is solidly built and persists with an aftertaste of dark fruit, mineral and spice. Best from 2025. (2019).

Winemaker Description 

Vibrant, focused, and expressive, with flavors of allspice, huckleberry and underbrush, our Cabernet mirrors the terrior of Redwood Valley's complex ecosystem.

Food Pairings

A natural at the Tuscan table — exceptional with bistecca alla Fiorentina, grilled lamb chops, pappardelle with wild boar ragù, aged Pecorino Toscano, and Parmigiano-Reggiano.

Frog’s Leap has been making Zinfandel in Napa Valley for decades, and this 2021 is a masterclass in restraint and elegance — a world away from the overripe, high-alcohol style that defined California Zin for so long. Using their signature technique of cold-soaking the Petite Sirah portion of the co-ferment before infusing it into the fermenting Zinfandel ten days later, the winemaking team locks in freshness and accentuates the wine’s natural elegance. A dash of Carignane adds acidity and structure, while aging largely in small concrete tanks preserves the wine’s vibrancy. The result is deeply flavored, beautifully balanced, and genuinely fresh — equally compelling with a slight chill on a summer evening or after a few years in the cellar.

Expert Reviews - Vintage 2021

“Mouthwatering and delicious with crisp acidity and a driving finish, this wine offers a pleasing range of flavors including mixed cherries, cranberries, warming spices and savory accents.

About the Spirit

Pantalones Tequila Extra Añejo Organic 80 is a limited-edition, super-premium extra añejo made from 100% certified-organic Blue Weber agave.

The bourbon-barrel finish bridges the worlds of aged tequila and American whiskey, making this an exceptional choice for spirits collectors and whiskey lovers exploring tequila.

Cooked agave sweetness, toasted oak, vanilla, toffee, dried fruit, and warm spice. The bourbon-barrel influence adds toasted coconut and warm wood on the finish. Rich, smooth, and deeply layered.

Serving Suggestions

• Neat, in a snifter or Glencairn — this is built for sipping and savoring, not mixing.

• Alongside dark chocolate or a fine cigar — the richness and oak complexity pair beautifully.

Expert Review

Producer Notes — Vintage 2024

“Cabochard” means stubborn in French — and it’s exactly what Stéphane Sérol’s father called him when he declared he was breaking from regional tradition to make a bone-dry rosé. The name stuck, and so did the wine. Screaming stone fruit and florals with vibrant acidity and freshness, Cabochard stands in proud opposition to the off-dry style typical of the Côte Roannaise.

Made from Gamay Saint-Romain — a rare local variant of Gamay — farmed biodynamically and certified organic, this is a rosé with real character and a great story behind every sip.

Direct press → cold settling → indigenous yeast fermentation → malolactic fermentation → 3 months in cement tank → light filtration. Bottled by the Domaine’s team in lightweight glass with a screw-cap closure.

Producer Notes — Vintage 2024

Domaine Guiberteau is one of the Loire Valley’s most celebrated estates, and Les Moulins is their entry-level rosé — a cuvée originally created for vineyards undergoing organic certification, now showcasing purchased grapes and young Domaine vines alongside the estate’s signature precision. Produced under the Chai de la Dive négociant project.

Made from Cabernet Franc, whole-cluster pressed and fermented with ambient yeasts in stainless steel, with malolactic conversion blocked to preserve freshness. The result is a bright, precise, and food-friendly rosé with real Loire character.

Frog’s Leap has long been one of Napa Valley’s most thoughtful producers, and this Sauvignon Blanc from their Rutherford estate is a compelling argument for California’s ability to craft world-class whites. Made from 100% Sauvignon Blanc sourced from organically grown, dry-farmed vineyards, it is vinified primarily in stainless steel to preserve the grape’s natural freshness and clarity. The 2024 vintage delivers stone fruit and white flower aromatics layered with crisp citrus, mineral, and herbaceous notes — medium-bodied, elegant, and refreshingly precise, with a clean finish that speaks clearly of Rutherford’s distinctive terroir.

Expert Reviews - Vintage 2024

“The 2024 Sauvignon Blanc offers up scents of lemon confit, slate, white pepper, mint and dried herbs, all framed by a gentle kiss of French oak. Lees-stirring builds the mid-palate beautifully. A dollop of Musqué clone adds aromatic lift and presence through to the finish.” — 93 pts, Vinous

Bérêche et Fils has been producing Champagne since the mid-19th century, and the estate’s reputation as one of the finest in the entire region has only grown under the stewardship of brothers Raphaël and Vincent Bérêche. Their approach is uncompromising: single-vineyard plots, minimal dosage, no malolactic fermentation, and a deep respect for terroir that allows each site to speak with clarity and precision. The result is a house style that is unmistakably racy, mineral, and built for the long haul.

This Cramant Grand Cru is a singular expression of one of Champagne’s most celebrated Chardonnay terroirs — a finely defined, powdery, and ethereally fresh wine resting upon an incredible bedrock of chalk. The nose is ample and delicate, evoking hawthorn against a backdrop of slightly damp chalk. The palate is unctuous and pure, revealing notes of iodine and extraordinary mineral tension. The finish — soft, chalky, and seemingly endless — gives way to the sheer emotion that only a great Cramant can evoke. A magnificent vintage with excellent aging potential.

Bérêche et Fils’ Ambonnay Grand Cru is one of the most coveted single-village expressions in their portfolio — and among the most compelling Blanc de Noirs in all of Champagne. Sourced from a single lieu-dit, “Les Tourets,” in the western part of Ambonnay village, this is Pinot Noir of extraordinary purity and presence. Ambonnay’s signature cashmere-like texture is immediately apparent: open, enveloping, and generous, with a volume and power that never tips into heaviness. Brioche and honey on the attack give way to floral lift and a finish that is invigorating, slightly iodized, and saline — the unmistakable signature of chalk and grand cru terroir. A wine of genuine rarity, with just 2,325 bottles produced.

Domaine Le Galantin Bandol Rosé Organic — Provence 2025 750ml

Domaine Le Galantin is one of Bandol’s most authentic and quietly revered estates — a family domaine farming southwest-facing hillsides of clay and limestone in the heart of Provence’s most serious appellation. Their Bandol Rosé is the benchmark for the style: structured, complex, and built to age in a way that most Provençal rosés simply cannot. Blended from approximately 62% Mourvèdre, 21% Cinsault, and 17% Grenache — all hand-harvested — it is vinified with meticulous care: a two-day cold soak at 5°C to extract fruit and aromatics, cool fermentation with blocked malolactic, and bottling no earlier than March 1st as required by Bandol appellation law. Around 5,850 cases produced.

Pale salmon in color with brilliant clarity. The nose is expressive and aromatic: peach, nectarine, grapefruit, dried orange zest, and a touch of Provençal spice. On the palate, the attack is round and fresh, with a structured, complex mid-palate of citrus and red fruit. The finish is persistent and salivating — a rare combination of finesse and character that sets Bandol apart from every other rosé in the world.

ZD Wines Chardonnay — California 2023

ZD Wines has been crafting benchmark California Chardonnay for over 55 years, and the 2023 vintage — the estate’s 55th harvest — is a landmark expression of everything the house does best. Sourced from certified-organic grapes across three premier coastal appellations — Napa Carneros, Sonoma Carneros, and Monterey — the fruit is hand-harvested at night to preserve freshness, then 100% barrel-fermented in ZD’s custom-designed cellar at a cool 48°F. This long, cool fermentation maximizes lees contact for richness and depth while deliberately avoiding malolactic fermentation to preserve the wine’s signature bright coastal acidity. Ten months in 100% American oak adds complexity and the house’s hallmark crème brûlée finish. The 2023 earned 90 points and three Gold Medals in 2025 — Los Angeles Invitational, San Francisco Chronicle, and Pacific Rim International.

The color is pale yellow with a luminous hue. The nose bursts with ripe Asian pear, green apple, honeydew melon, pink grapefruit, and nectarine. On the palate, it is vibrant and richly textured — lemon curd, guava, and white peach are framed by mouthwatering acidity and a long, complex finish of crème brûlée and vanillin. Sunshine in a glass.

Domaine Huet Vouvray Bundle — Sec, Demi-Sec & Moelleux

Domaine Huet is the undisputed reference point for Vouvray — and arguably for Chenin Blanc anywhere on earth. Founded in 1928 by Victor Huet and brought to international renown by his son Gaston Huet, the domaine has been farmed biodynamically since 1990 under the stewardship of Noël Pinguet and, more recently, Anthony Hwang. With three distinct vineyard sites — Le Mont, Le Haut-Lieu, and Clos du Bourg — and a full range of sweetness levels from bone-dry Sec to luscious Moelleux, Huet offers an unparalleled window into the complexity and longevity of Vouvray Chenin Blanc.

The Demi-Sec strikes a perfect balance between richness and acidity: honeyed stone fruit, quince, and beeswax with a refreshing, vibrant finish.

Encomienda de Cervera Vulcanus Sauvignon Blanc/Verdejo — Campo de Calatrava 2025

Encomienda de Cervera is one of Spain’s most singular estate wineries — a historic property with documented vineyard records dating to 1741, situated in the Campo de Calatrava, a volcanic appellation in Castilla-La Mancha that remains one of the country’s best-kept secrets. The estate’s vineyards grow on volcanic soils at 750–850 meters of altitude, cooled by mountain microclimates with cold nights that preserve natural acidity and generate exceptional aromatic complexity. Vulcanus — named for the volcanic terroir that defines it — is a blend of Sauvignon Blanc and Verdejo, harvested selectively during the coolest hours of the day at optimal ripeness. Certified organic, the wine is fermented in restored 1927 concrete tanks that impart a distinctive creaminess through malolactic fermentation. This is Spanish white wine from a place unlike any other.

The color is a bright straw yellow. The nose is floral, fresh, and expressive: white flowers, white peach, currant, citrus, and aromatic herbs, with the stony, mineral undercurrent of volcanic soil. On the palate, it is mineral, elegant, and complex — refreshing acidity, a round and creamy mid-palate from concrete tank fermentation, and a long, clean, and satisfying finish. An explosion of sensations in perfect balance.

“Mineral, elegant and complex, with a refreshing acidity and a long and creamy aftertaste — everything perfectly harmonized, in balance, like an explosion of sensations and flavors.” — Encomienda de Cervera

Domaines Ott BY OTT Côtes de Provence Rosé — Provence 2025

Domaines Ott is the founding dynasty of Provence rosé — a family that has shaped the identity of the appellation for 130 years, since Marcel Ott established the estate in the late 19th century. From Château de Selle to Clos Mireille to Château Romassan, the Ott family has patiently crafted a singular vision of rosé rooted in three terroirs, two appellations, and an uncompromising pursuit of authenticity. BY OTT is their entry into the Côtes de Provence AOC — grown organically from estate vineyards and carefully selected partner growers nestled between land and sea. The 2025 blend is 60% Grenache, 25% Cinsault, 7% Mourvèdre, 4% Syrah, and 4% Rolle — each variety playing a precise role: Grenache for texture and generous fruitiness, Cinsault for freshness, Syrah, Mourvèdre, and Rolle for depth and length. Three terroirs, one shared light.

The color is a beautiful pastel pink with soft rosewood tints — luminous and distinctly Provençal. The nose is fresh and enticing: red berries, citrus fruits, and white blossom, with the generous, sun-drenched character of the 2025 vintage. On the palate, it is luscious and fruity with a smooth, silky mouthfeel — fresh citrus zest weaving through the mid-palate and accompanying a persistent, elegant finish. This is Provence rosé as Domaines Ott has always envisioned it: vibrant, nuanced, and luminous.

“Enticing, fresh and generous — this rosé wine combines our winegrowing savoir-faire with the vibrant essence of Provence.” — Jean-François Ott

Domaine Champalou | Vouvray Sec | Loire Valley | 2024

Vouvray is Chenin Blanc’s spiritual home — a small appellation on the Loire’s right bank where the grape has been grown for centuries in the region’s distinctive tuffeau limestone soils. Domaine Champalou, run by Céline and Didier Champalou, is one of the appellation’s most beloved estates: biodynamically farmed, meticulous in the cellar, and utterly consistent in producing Vouvray of purity and grace. The Sec (dry) is the entry point into their range and it is a masterclass in what Chenin Blanc can do when the terroir is right and the winemaking gets out of the way. Stony minerality from the limestone, luscious almost-honeyed fruit, and delicate floral notes combine on a palate that is simultaneously fresh and textural — the kind of wine that seems effortless but is anything but. Serve cold, drink often.

• Appellation: Vouvray AOC, Loire Valley, France
• Varietal: 100% Chenin Blanc
• Style: Sec (dry)
• Vintage: 2024
• Format: 750ml
• Soils: Tuffeau limestone
• Farming: Biodynamic
• Drink Window: Now – 2032

Tasting Notes

Stony minerality, luscious honeyed fruit, and delicate floral notes. Fresh, pure, and textural with a long, clean finish.

67 Wine Picks

"Céline Champalou’s Vouvray is always a joy to drink. The wine seems so pure, as if it bubbled up out of the limestone into a cool, limpid pool tended by nymphs and satyrs who pour it into the mouths of weary souls. That’s what I feel, anyway, when I grab a bottle from the fridge." 

Pairing Suggestions

• Seafood: Grilled white fish, shellfish, or scallops with a light cream sauce.
• Poultry: Roasted chicken, turkey, or grilled meats with herb butter.
• Global: Japanese cuisine, Thai dishes with lemongrass, or roasted vegetables.
• Aperitif: An ideal pre-dinner pour on its own.

Domaine Isabelle & Denis Pommier — "Les Reinettes" 2022

Appellation: Chablis AOC | Varietal: Chardonnay | Format: 750ml

Perched on a steep, top-slope parcel of kimmeridgian clay — difficult to work, impossible to ignore. "Les Reinettes" is an extension of the celebrated Croix aux Moines vineyard, a site Isabelle and Denis have farmed with quiet conviction since the very beginning. The slope demands effort; the wine rewards patience.

In the glass, expect a step up from classic Chablis AOC — sharper minerality, more tension, greater depth. This is the wine that bridges the gap between entry-level Chablis and the old-vine villages and premier crus, making it an ideal introduction to the Pommier house style.

Vineyard & Viticulture

• Soil: Chalky clay topsoil over kimmeridgian bedrock
• Farming: No herbicides, pesticides, or synthetic inputs — worked in tandem with nature

Vinification & Aging

• 24-hour cold settling
• Wild yeast fermentation in stainless steel
• Aged entirely in stainless steel — pure, unadulterated fruit and mineral expression

Tasting Notes

Crisp and focused with a saline, chalky minerality. Citrus zest, white peach, and a long, stony finish. Serve well-chilled alongside oysters, grilled fish, or a simple plate of aged chèvre.

Domaine Isabelle & Denis Pommier — Organic Chablis Collection | As Featured in the Wall Street Journal

Appellation: Chablis AOC & Petit Chablis AOC, Burgundy | Varietal: Chardonnay | Farming: Certified Organic (AgriBio since 2010)

When the Wall Street Journal takes notice of a small family domaine in Chablis, you pay attention. Isabelle and Denis Pommier have been quietly farming their Kimmeridgian limestone slopes since 1990 — no herbicides, no synthetic inputs, just a deep respect for the land and the grape. This collection brings together three expressions of the Pommier range: from their entry-level Petit Chablis to the mineral-driven Chablis AOC and the steep-slope “Les Reinettes” — a complete portrait of one of Burgundy’s most compelling organic estates.

Wall Street Journal — Lettie Teague (August 2024): “Petit Chablis is actually a grand wine for spring drinking and a bargain, too, compared with other white Burgundies.”

1. Domaine Isabelle & Denis Pommier — Petit Chablis Hauterivien 2023 | 750ml

Appellation: Petit Chablis AOC | Soil: Hauterivian limestone & clay | Drink: Now–2028

Petit Chablis gets unfairly dismissed as the entry-level tier of the Chablis hierarchy — but in the right hands, from the right soils, it is one of Burgundy’s great bargains. Pommier’s version carries the Hauterivien designation, referring to an ancient limestone and clay stratum that predates even the famous Kimmeridgian soils of Premier and Grand Cru Chablis. Lean, mineral, and precise — no oak, no artifice.

Tasting Notes: White fruits, pear, apple, and citrus zest on the nose with honeysuckle and a fine mineral thread. Lively and ripe on the palate with a fresh, clean finish.

Burghound — Allen Meadows: “Good Chablis typicity to the ripe yet fresh aromas of mostly pear, apple and zest. The caressing and nicely punchy middleweight flavors deliver acceptable depth and persistence on the refreshing finish.”

2. Domaine Isabelle & Denis Pommier — Chablis AOC 2023 Organic | 750ml

Appellation: Chablis AOC | Soil: Kimmeridgian limestone & Portlandian | Farming: AgriBio Certified Organic | Drink: Now–2029

Founded in 1990 on two hectares of family land, Domaine Pommier has grown into one of Chablis’ most respected family estates. Their path from sustainable farming to fully certified organic viticulture is embodied in the red ladybug on their bright yellow labels — a symbol of genuine respect for the land. The 2023 is a textbook expression of what Kimmeridgian limestone and cool-climate Chardonnay can achieve together: round, fleshy, and mineral-precise.

Tasting Notes: Crisp green apple, lemon zest, and white flowers on the nose. Flinty oyster-shell minerality from Kimmeridgian limestone. Round and fleshy on the palate with bright acidity and a clean, precise finish.

3. Domaine Isabelle & Denis Pommier — “Les Reinettes” 2022 | 750ml

Appellation: Chablis AOC | Soil: Chalky clay over Kimmeridgian bedrock | Farming: No herbicides or synthetic inputs

Perched on a steep, top-slope parcel of Kimmeridgian clay — difficult to work, impossible to ignore. “Les Reinettes” is an extension of the celebrated Croix aux Moines vineyard, a site Isabelle and Denis have farmed with quiet conviction since the very beginning. A step up from classic Chablis AOC — sharper minerality, more tension, greater depth. Wild yeast fermented and aged entirely in stainless steel for a pure, unadulterated expression of terroir.

Tasting Notes: Crisp and focused with a saline, chalky minerality. Citrus zest, white peach, and a long, stony finish.
