    We’re excited to share a glimpse into our August newsletter, where we spoke with Arista Winery's owner, Mark McWilliams! Check out a snippet of our interview below, and for the full Q&A and more insights, head to the link at the bottom of this post.   WD: Arista Winery has always believed in producing the finest Pinot Noirs and Chardonnays from small lots in the Russian River Valley. Can you speak more about this ideology?   Mark: My parents began visiting the Russian River Valley in the 1980s. They were taken by the region's beauty, the quality of wines, and the people producing them. As they considered planting vineyards, they visited many Pinot Noir and Chardonnay regions on the West Coast but were drawn back to the Russian River Valley. Its near-perfect placement — close enough to the Pacific for marine influence and moderate temps, but far enough to get enough sunlight for ripening — resonated with them. The diversity of soils and the array of textures and flavors from the Russian River Valley terroirs convinced them then, just as we know now, that that this region produces world class wines that have earned a spot time and time again at the table with the very finest Pinot Noirs and Chardonnays from around the globe.   WD: Why is it important for you to collaborate with growers who share the same dedication to sustainable farming practices?   Mark: The relationship between grower and winery is a sacred bond. In order to produce wines at the highest level of quality there has to be a deep trust and commitment on both sides. Part of that is a shared belief in being great stewards of our land and ensuring that our impact is low on the land that we farm. We have been given a great privilege to work with some of California’s most iconic vineyard sites and our responsibility is to ensure that these great sites continue to produce for generations to come. Sustainable farming, organic farming are ways that minimize our long term impact on the land and simultaneously allow us to maximize full site potential so that we have the greatest chance to produce a world class product. https://lnkd.in/eyYRUpPN   #wdcru #wilsondaniels #wdnewsletter #arista #russianrivervalley #finewine

    The Wilson Daniels team just wrapped up its 2024 National Sales Meeting in Clearwater, FL! In addition to the formal business reviews and creative brand workshops, Italy’s second Master of Wine Andrea Lonardi MW guided the team through an educational seminar on blind tasting. We dove deep into the art of "slicing" wine, deconstructing each layer to better understand different palate structures and winemaking aromas, revealing the wine's origin and character. Amidst a year filled with a lot of exciting activity, we’re incredibly grateful to represent our producers from 7 countries and 32 regions, and we’re looking forward to continue sharing their storied wines with you this fall. #wdcru #wilsondaniels #nationalsalesmeeting #wdnsm #finewine

    "The meeting of Katrina Rank and Bertrand de Villaine was pure serendipity. As it happened, de Villaine – like many Burgundians before him – had already begun to ponder the possibility of an Oregon project when Rank popped up with her suggestion. ‘There was the seed of an idea that had been around for a long time, but meeting Katrina was the catalyst for an Oregon project to become a reality,’ says de Villaine."

    In her latest for The Drinks Business, Contributor Kathleen Willcox poses the question, “Does Chablis Hold the Magic Formula for Wine Success?” President Rocco Lombardo weighs in on the momentum and success of the region: “The perceived value of Chablis when compared to the Village, Premier Cru and Grand Cru white Burgundy offerings from the Cote de Beaune are providing the region with great momentum,” noting that annual releases from Domaine Laroche and Domaine Billaud-Simon sell out within a ten-month period. Read more about how LAROCHE and #DomaineBillaudSimon are reaching more consumers over in The Drinks Business. https://lnkd.in/e-Gz9b5v

    Famille Joly’s Nicolas Joly is more than just a vintner — he’s a philosopher of biodynamics, as described by Wine Enthusiast, revolutionizing winemaking in France’s Loire Valley and inspiring winemakers worldwide. In a dedicated feature by Wine Enthusiast’s Aleksandar Zecevic, Joly explains his commitment to produce wines that show terroir, reflecting the unique characteristics of its specific vineyard site. He challenges us to consider: “When you taste the wine ... how much comes from the conductor of the orchestra, and how much comes from the quality of the orchestra?” Read more about how Joly’s innovative practices have shaped him as a biodynamic trailblazer over on Wine Enthusiast. https://lnkd.in/eauixBhQ #wdcru #wilsondaniels #famillejoly #nicolasjoly #biodynamicwine

    We are pleased to present our 2024 Bourgogne Offering – a celebration of tradition, terroir, and timeless elegance that highlights the mastery of our illustrious #Bourgogne producers. Over the past 46 years, we have slowly and methodically forged partnerships with families who represent the quality pinnacle in the Côte d’Or, Côte Chalonnaise, Mâconnais, and Chablis, so that we could offer you a Bourgogne Portfolio that is unmatched in its quality, scope, and significance. Among this unique Offering includes Domaine Leflaive’s 2022 Puligny-Montrachet and Mâconnais, highlighting their commitment to expanding and enhancing vineyard holdings in the town of Verzé. Also featured are the release of the 2020s from #EspritLeflaive, a forward-thinking project pioneered by fourth-generation Brice de La Morandière in partnership with winemaker pierre VINCENT, which ventures beyond the Domaine’s home in Puligny-Montrachet to highlight the diverse terroirs of Chablis and Côte de Nuits as a micro-négociant. From Domaine Faiveley, led by seventh-generation Erwan Faiveley and Eve Faiveley, they present the 2022 vintage, celebrated for its outstanding quality and vibrant fruitiness. In 2014, the Faiveley family expanded its winemaking heritage to Chablis with the acquisition of Domaine Billaud-Simon – which today is operated independently – whose 2022 site-specific #Chablis are also featured in this Offering. Neighboring Billaud-Simon is LAROCHE, one of the largest owners of Grands Crus and Premiers Crus vineyards in Chablis. The 2022 vintage marks the first under new winemaker Romain Chevrolat, an emerging talent originally from Champagne with experience in Bourgogne’s finest vineyards and cellars. From Château du Moulin-à-Vent, Proprietor Edouard Parinet presents the elegant 2021 releases, which have proven to have incredible aging potential. Also owned by the Parinet family is Domaine du Roc des Boutires in the heart of Pouilly-Fuissé, who is releasing the 2022 wines known for their tension and expression.

    Our team just wrapped up an exciting few days at the 41st Food & Wine Classic in Aspen! Marking the debut of Elena Walch in the Colorado market as part of the Wilson Daniels National Portfolio, it was such a privilege to have fifth-generation Karoline Walch join us to host various immersive events for the trade, press, and consumers. To kick off the weekend, we hosted an exclusive luncheon for the amazing seminar speakers. Karoline shared her family’s dedication to terroir through the new releases of the expressive whites and elegant, yet concentrated reds – including the single-varietal expressions from Vigna Castel Ringberg and Vigna Kastelaz, alongside the iconic cuvée, Beyond the Clouds. Then, we held our second-ever ‘Social Hour’ at our condo, with a lineup of top-notch wines in big bottles and plenty of good company. And to wrap up the weekend, The Little Nell graciously hosted us for a late night in the cellar for a deep dive into our library of exceptional wines – including library wines from Domaine de la Romanée-Conti, #DomaineLeflaive, Domaine Faiveley, Familia Torres, #GAJA, and, of course, Elena Walch. A heartfelt thank you to our wonderful friends and supporters who joined us to raise a glass this year in Aspen. We’re looking forward to another fantastic year ahead! #wdcru #wilsondaniels #foodandwineclassic #foodandwine #aspenfoodandwine #ElenaWalch #DomainedelaRomaneeConti

    It was a pleasure to welcome Domaine Faiveley Principal Erwan Faiveley to introduce the 2022 releases in the market, which is a vintage notable for its generous quantity, impeccable quality, and intensely fragrant fruit. These wines – also featured in our recently published 2024 Bourgogne Luxury Offering – stand as a testament to the enduring values that have defined Domaine Faiveley for seven generations. Today, Domaine Faiveley is one of the most important owners of diverse vineyards in Bourgogne totaling 127 hectares, of which 13 hectares are Grands Crus and 26 hectares are Premiers Crus. Across the entirety of the vineyard holdings, the 2022 growing season was managed consistently with organic practices, as the winery began the official conversion to organics in July 2022. Thank you to everyone who joined us last week to celebrate these exquisite wines! We’re looking forward to continue sharing the family’s entire range of expressive 2022s with you this summer. #wdcru #wilsondaniels #domainefaiveley #faiveley #bourgogne #burgundywines

    Jeb Dunnuck Senior Editor Audrey Frick has published her top 20 Brunellos of the 2019 Vintage, with Val di Suga Poggio al Granchio ranking at No. 5 and Pieve Santa Restituta Rennina at No. 12. She notes: “I’ve been particularly enamored with wines I’ve been enjoying from Val di Suga. It was difficult to pick just one wine, [but] this vintage of the Poggio al Granchio stands apart from the crowd….[And] Pieve Santa Restituta Rennina is an outstanding and seductive wine; it’s hard to resist now but will have lots of longevity ahead.”   Read why these wines stand out among the best: Audrey’s Top 20 Brunello of 2019 - JebDunnuck.com #wdcru #wilsondaniels #valdisuga #pievesantarestituta #brunello #poggioalgranchio #rennina

    Our National team just returned from an unforgettable immersion trip to Italy, where we had the privilege of connecting with some of our family-owned winery partners: Elvio Cogno, the GAJA Properties, Tenuta Sette Cieli, Benanti Viticoltori S.r.l. and FEUDO MONTONI. Our first stop was at #ElvioCogno, where fourth-generation Nadia Cogno and winemaker Valter Fissore showcased their meticulous organic vineyard practices and indigenous varieties. Valter describes their wines as "precise and pure," crafted with low yields per hectare and a profound respect for the natural balance of the vine. Next, we toured the Gaja family's iconic #Barbaresco estate. Fourth-generation Angelo Gaja, with his children Gaia and Giovanni, guided us through their winemaking practices, which have propelled Barbaresco to international fame and ignited a broader revival of Italian wines. Later in the week, the team also had the opportunity explore two more of the #Gaja family’s properties: #Ca’Marcanda in Bolgheri and #IDDA on Mount Etna. At Ca’Marcanda, our team experienced a fairy tale moment releasing butterflies from their boxes, reminding us of nature’s beauty and how important it is to work *with* nature to ensure the optimal health of the vineyards. Then venturing to Mount Etna’s southern slope, we explored IDDA – the joint venture launched in 2017 between Angelo Gaja and renowned winemaker Alberto Graci. The vineyards serve as the exclusive producer for the IDDA label, crafting exquisite Etna Rosso DOP and Bianco Sicilia DOP wines. While on #MountEtna, Benanti’s Salvino Benanti and Antonio V. B. graciously welcomed us at their winery amidst the picturesque slopes for a tasting and dinner. As the only winery with vineyards on every slope of the volcano, Benanti is widely recognized as a pioneering force in Etna’s fine winemaking excellence. At Tenuta Sette Cieli, we were warmly met by Proprietor Ambrogio Cremona Ratti and Winemaker Elena Pozzolini. Perched above the Mediterranean Sea in #Bolgheri, we walked through 18 acres of vineyards — home to Sette Cieli’s Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot, and Malbec. To conclude the trip, we met up with FABIO SIRECI, the third generation of Feudo Montoni's devoted winemaking family. We toured the certified-organic vineyards on this historic Sicilian property, which has been around since 1469. These vineyards are famous for producing some of Italy’s most celebrated grapes – like Perricone, Nerello Mascalese, Catarratto, and Grillo. We’re honored to represent these family who entrust us with sharing their exceptional wines with you, and we can’t wait to share these stories with you in the market! #wdcru #wilsondaniels #wdinitaly #italy #italianwines #finewine
