40 years ago, Hector and Pablo Durigutti were just boys, running through vineyards in Mendoza, dreaming of one day becoming a famous winemaking duo.
20 years ago, Hector and Pablo made and bottled their first wine under the ‘Durigutti Family’ label, a Malbec which signaled the beginning of their winemaking careers.
And just this year, the brothers celebrated their 20th anniversary, a journey which has seen them become major players in Mendoza, earn a timely Top 100 Wine Spectator appearance, build their own winery, acquire vineyards and build their childhood dream together into a reality. Success didn’t come overnight but what a journey it has been.
Despite having no family background in wine, Hector decided to study oenology in Mendoza before spending two years learning the tricks to the trade in Italy. Pablo went to work at the best winery in Argentina, Catena, and worked there during the first years at Durigutti before they had a winery or equipment of their own.
But as the critics started to pile on in their love for the wines, things happened very quickly for Hector and Pablo, and blossomed into the force to be reckoned with that it has become. Once again, the Durigutti brothers find themselves in an expansion project – a testament to the continued demand that the wines receive from Argentinians and world wine lovers alike.

Aromas of violets, hibiscus, crushed raspberries and rosemary. It’s medium-bodied with firm, tight-grained tannins and bright acidity. Juicy and fresh with lots of bright berry and some zesty notes. Still tight. Drink from 2023.

It’s no surprise the Wine Advocate has called the Ventoux a “screaming bargain.” Carved off the left bank of the Rhone River, the 2020 Delas Ventoux is a gorgeous medium-bodied wine with wonderful crushed red fruits, a silky mouthfeel, tremendous structure and that signature Rhone spice on the finish. I haven’t had this wine available for a few vintages, but I figure it’s the perfect springtime Red to bring back in the fold!

“Vignon’s 2019 Chateauneuf du Pape delivers even more than I hoped for based on a previous sample. Hints of garrigue, roses, cherries and raspberries appear on the nose, while the palate is full-bodied, silky and long, with an intense, almost briny finish. The assemblage is 50% Grenache, 10% each Mourvèdre and Syrah, plus smaller proportions of seven other permitted varieties, while the élevage includes foudres, demi-muids, concrete and wooden tanks, plus terracotta amphorae.”

This is a really exciting new release in the collection of single-vineyards from the Wagner Family, and arguably the most interesting one of the bunch. This is the only Pinot Noir in the Caymus collection that has the advantage of being from a natural Pinot Noir haven in the Russian River Valley. Dairyman Vineyard’s proximity to the pacific ocean, with its morning fog and afternoon coastal breezes allows for an even and elongated growing season, with super concentrated and expressive grape clusters that help make this Dijon clone Pinot Noir one that you need.
The 2021 Napa Valley East side Cuvee is an instant classic. From the first whiff to the moment it hits the lips, its clear that this is a fabulously concentrated, serious wine: black in color, and featuring aromas of cassis, cedar and chocolate-tinged purple fruit. The mouthfeel is plush and voluptuous with a firm, solid finish that speaks to its potential for considerable aging.
