The third generation of winemakers continues to build on their family’s already incredible legacy. Recently, Antonio Galloni of Vinous referred to them as “one of Soave’s, actually Italy’s, most important producers” and talked about the “state of constant evolution and experimentation over the past few years” that has helped turn these gorgeous wines into perennial power houses.
Their method is simple but undeniable, and apparently hard enough to replicate that they continue to shine brighter than any of their neighbors. The white grapes are picked fully ripe, gently pressed and then left to settle before a temperature-controlled fermentation and spontaneous malolactic fermentation. This is why these wines are both beautifully balanced and aromatically expressive. Minimal filtering, minimal interference – pure expression.
When others’ follow this, they make pretty wines. But at Inama – these white wines amount to some of the most highly rated whites in the world.

Very ripe, yet discreet and so mineral and punchy, almost like smelling a wet rock. Bone-dry and crisp, yet elegant and textured. Really attractive and subtle with a linear, mineral finish. Delicious now, but will hold, too.

Crushed stone and flowers, underbrush and pear transform in the glass becoming more floral over time as the 2020 Soave Classico I Palchi Foscarino Grande Cuvée slowly unfolds. This is silky-smooth, with a balanced and attractive sweetness and juicy acids that motivate the ripe apple and green melon within. That’s when the minerality comes forward, mixing with pretty inner florals and gingery spice through the long and structured finale. This could emerge as a masterpiece.
Just in time, we got back Vincent Ricard’s all-time great white wine bargain. This is a crisp, clean and flat out delicious Loire Valley Sauvignon Blanc. The protege to the Silex-style of Dagueneau – who over the last 15 years has produced flawless and beloved white wines that at last count were on the wine lists of over 36 Michelin-starred restaurants. This is a great house white and one that can surely hold its own with just about everything on the table.
The sandy soil of north Piemonte is home to the appellation Roero and the indigenous variety, Arneis. Stefano Almondo is a master of the rare variety, crafting aromatic and mineral wines that rival any of the best white wines in Italy. The newly released 2021 Vigne Sparse dazzles right out of the bottle; floral and fruity with juicy peaches and apricots yet with a chalky mineral streak as well. As always, it’s such a complex white and the kicker is its finish which goes on for a minute of pure joy.
It’s hard to beat a great value white wine and this one is a at least a cut above the rest. One prominant industry insider called the 2020 edition, “the best white wine by any within $20/cs of this price.” It’s super crisp with a great mineral streak, and was carefully picked by hand when the temperature is coolest and is kept cool all the way into the press. From there, the effect of the mineral soil takes over, providing great finesse and freshness in every bottle. This white blend has great backbone and a lot of juicy fruit coming through behind aromas of flowers and stone fruits. At this price, it’s a no brainer.
Year in, year out Château Turcaud produces one of the best white wine values in the world. It’s long been found on Michelin-starred wine lists in Paris and we’ve had it at the restaurant since Day 1. If you’ve ever tried this stunning, classic Bordeaux of Sauvignon Blanc, Semillon, Sauvignon Gris and Muscadlle, then you know why. The 2020 vintage has just arrived, and it’s a fantastic vintage in Bordeaux for energetic whites. This is world-class, as always.
