Le Fraghe is one of Veneto’s most respected winemakers, and it doesn’t matter which side of the river or lake we’re talking about. These wines have been staples in the NYC Italian restaurant scene for over a decade, but rarely made their way over to New Jersey.
Le Frage’s winery sits perfectly perched overlooking the shores of Lake Garda. It benefits from the protection of the Dolomite Mountains, the micro-climate of the Adige River, and the mineral-rich soil surrounding the lake. The wines Le Fraghe makes are perfect for this weather—bright, fresh, crunchy and zippy, the kind that absolutely shines when it’s served slightly chilled in a glass.
Of course, even with the best conditions, these wines still need the right hands. To that end, nobody is better suited to run the place than Matilde Poggi. Matilde is a legitimate institution in her neck of the woods, a leading winemaker and businesswoman who has excelled at the helm of Le Fraghe for almost forty years now.

This deceptively simple blend of 80% Corvina and 20% Rondinella from Matilde Poggi’s estate at Cavaion Veronese is an epicurean masterpiece. The ripe and sweet-smelling nose of red and black cherries has a hint of violet. The palate is ripe and fresh, and so juicy thanks to crisp acidity. It finishes as clean as a whistle and is utterly delicious. Organic.

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.
With seemingly infinite access to some of the absolute very best vineyards in the most choice AVAs in the valley, the Wagner’s set out to make Quilt– a Cabernet blend from a patchwork of the top sites in Napa (Oakville, St Helena, Atlas Peak, Coombsville, Calistoga, and Howell Mountain.) The brand new 2021 edition is a beauty – deeply concentrated, rich and a truly show stopping Cabernet. It’s a dark, hedonistic blend that combines elegance with power and pairs the two together effortlessly.
This is Joe Wagner and Quilt’s inaugural Red blend called Threadcount. It is a total knockout at the price point for this style of wine. It’s a big voluptuous wine and very fruit forward. The nose is straight up dark chocolate dipped raspberries and it tastes of fresh-baked blueberry pie, spice, and a touch of toffee. It’s the kind of quality blend that you’ve come to expect from the family behind Caymus.
It’s always nice to be in good standing with one of the most beloved wine brands in America! These won’t last long! This is an opulent, powerful dark-fruited Cabernet with tightly woven tannins, that is just raring and ready to go. Textbook, full-bodied, revved up and ready to go, this new Caymus Napa Valley Cabernet is the definition of a crowd pleaser.
