Donnachiara is a family owned and operated winery just outside the boundaries of Montefalcione in Avellino. The origins date back to the turn of the 20th century when Chiara Mazzarelli and the noble surgeon, Antonio Petitto got married and started a new project. Five generations of winemaking later, their legacy lives on stronger than ever thanks to one of the most progressive, state of the art winemaking facilities and arguably the best winemaker in Italy.
Riccardo Cotarella is a winemaking superstar and the most famous and well respected consultant in Italy. Robert Parker’s Jr. himself heaped perhaps the highest praise possible, referring to him as “one of the most influential personalities in the world of wine in the last 20 years.”
During his decades in the industry, Cotarella works has worked with dozens of wineries and countless varietals, but it’s his work with Greco di Tufo in particular where his mastery is on full display, churning out what Wine Spectator calls “clean, modern wines that emphasize fruit”. His Greco di Tufo is all of that and more– fresh and elegant with fragrant citrus notes that unleashes your senses.

A tangy and fresh greco with lots of sliced lemon, lime, mineral and stone characters. Medium body. Bright acidity. Vibrant and textured finish with lots of flavor. Drink Now.
I got this one before most everybody else in the country which is why this is still yet to be scored. Last year, Wine Enthusiast gave it a 91-point Editors’ Choice review saying, “Te Mata is a few bucks more than your average New Zealand SB. It’s worth every penny.” That pretty much sums up how I feel about this wine. A lot of New Zealand SBs give you the gooseberry and tropical aromatics, but this is a serious Sauvignon Blanc with sophistication, and depth. Refreshing and long with a great finish, this is the one to snag out of New Zealand in the 2021 vintage.
A long-time staple ‘by-the-bottle’ wine and often the solo Pinot Grigio offered on the wine lists of both French Laundry and Per Se. Tiefenbrunner Pinot Grigio is one of the finest examples of Italian white wine that you can find. Owner and winemaker Cristof Tiefenbrunner crafts beautiful, crisp, Pinot Grigio in the chilly Italian Alps on the side of the mountain slopes. His winery is gorgeous, his wines– even better. His new 2020 PG is a bright and fruity white wine citrus and grassy aromas and clean, high-toned fruit.
Glistening pale yellow-green to the rim, infused with mouth-watering aromas of ripe apple, pear and quince, and crushed almonds with honey and rich creamy middle and a fantastic rush of acidity and minerality that are present throughout. A calling card of Bonhomme’s Vire-Clesse, if you closed your eyes and took a sip, it would have you convinced you were drinking Meursault at least a 3x price tag. This is a White Burgundy you’re going to want to snag up quickly, we’re not going to have it in very long this year.
Jayson Chardonnay has Pahlmeyer prints all over it. It’s a gorgeoeus, racy Chard that opens with notes of orange blossom, jasmine and freshly sliced pears. In the glass, the wine evolves and deepens, adding bright and zesty hints of creamy lemon meringue, tart citrus fruit and a splash of minerality. On the palate, the wine’s lively acidity is balanced with rich notes of pear, tangerine and baked apricot, wrapped up with a hint of caramel and vanilla on smooth and creamy finish.
