Elvio Cogno | Anas-Cëtta | Langhe Nascetta del Comune di Novello DOC | Piedmont, Italy | 2025 | Organic

Elvio Cogno is one of the Langhe's most respected and forward-thinking estates, based in Novello in the heart of the Barolo zone. Founded by the legendary Elvio Cogno and now led by his son-in-law Walter Fissore and daughter Nadia, the estate is celebrated for its commitment to indigenous Piedmontese grape varieties and its pioneering role in the revival of Nascetta — an ancient white grape that had nearly disappeared from the region entirely.

Nascetta is a rare, indigenous white variety native to the commune of Novello, where it has been cultivated for centuries. Nearly extinct by the late 20th century, Elvio Cogno was instrumental in its revival, and today the grape has its own dedicated DOC — Langhe Nascetta del Comune di Novello — a testament to the variety's unique character and the estate's advocacy. The Anas-Cëtta — the name is a playful phonetic rendering of "Nascetta" in Piedmontese dialect — is the benchmark expression of this extraordinary grape, farmed organically and vinified with minimal intervention to let the terroir speak.

The 2025 offers a vibrant, distinctive nose of yellow fruit, jasmine, citrus, ginger, and thyme, with complex notes of white flowers and mineral precision. On the palate, fresh and precise with a lovely waxy viscosity, rich texture, and a long, saline finish that balances energy and elegance. A structured, expressive white that reflects the unique Novello terroir and the variety's genuine aging potential.

Pair with white truffle dishes, risotto, grilled fish, seafood pasta, soft cheeses, and herb-driven cuisine.

• Appellation: Langhe Nascetta del Comune di Novello DOC, Piedmont, Italy

Expert Reviews - Vintage 2020

The Wine Spectator 95 Points | This is supple and complex, delivering cherry, strawberry, summer meadow, earth, leather and iron aromas and flavors. Firmly structured, this picks up a hint of licorice as it winds down on the lingering finish, with tannins that are solid yet civilized. Shows fine potential. Best from 2028 through 2046. 1,670 cases made, 540 cases imported.

Jeb Dunnuck 92 Points | The medium red 2020 Barolo Cascina Nuova is spiced and fruity with notes of ripe grenadine, pink peppercorn, dried apricots, and polished leather. Open and approachable, it offers ripe, supple tannins, even acidity, and a clean finish with good length. It’s a very charming wine with a wide drinking window for enjoyment over the next 10 years.

Expert Review

Winemaker Description

Villapanes is a rich mahogany color and boasts seductive, toasty aromas of almonds, caramel, fig and a hint of floral perfume. On the palate it is dry, generous and full-bodied, with persistent and lasting flavors.

Pair with roast poultry, red meat or salty, aged cheeses. 

Expert Reviews 

93 Points Wine Spectator | A shade darker than its peers, relying more on black walnut, Brazil nut and singed orange peel notes, while dried persimmon and quince flavors add a succulent side. Light rye and green tea hints echo through the razor-sharp finish, where sweet details peek in.

91 Points Robert Parker | The NV Villapanes Oloroso wears a dark amber-brown robe and has a very intense nose, showing some marmalade, dark tobacco and brandy notes. The palate is textbook Oloroso, round, ample, warm, a little spirity, ending with dry walnut flavors. It manages to balance power and elegance quite well.

91 Points Wine & Spirits | Dominated by notes of salted almonds, this Oloroso has its fair share of sweetness to balance that saline side, making it more readily accessible to a wider range of palates and fitting perfectly with smoked pork.

Emilio Lustau · Solera Reserva · Brandy de Jerez DO · Andalusia · Spain

Emilio Lustau is one of Jerez’s most celebrated sherry houses — and their approach to Brandy de Jerez is as meticulous as their approach to fino and amontillado. The Solera Reserva is the youngest brandy in the Lustau portfolio, distilled from Airén grapes harvested in central Spain and brought to Jerez for aging in the traditional solera and criadera system — the same method that gives sherry its layered complexity. What sets this brandy apart is the cask seasoning: each barrel was first filled with young Amontillado sherry, which smooths the virgin oak and impregnates the wood with nutty, oxidative character before the brandy ever touches it. Aged an average of three years. Gold Medal Best in Class at the International Wine and Spirits Competition and International Spirits Challenge.

Light amber with greenish reflections, the Solera Reserva opens with aromas of vanilla, toasted wood, orange marmalade, and hazelnuts. On the palate, it is bone dry and smooth — mellow yet intense — with a long, nutty finish that lingers with warmth and elegance. A brandy of genuine craft and exceptional value.

• Producer: Emilio Lustau, Jerez de la Frontera, Andalusia, Spain
• Style: Brandy de Jerez DO · Solera Reserva
• Distillate: Airén grapes, distilled in central Spain
• Aging: Average 3 years in Amontillado sherry-seasoned casks; solera & criadera system

• Size: 700ml
• Tasting Notes: Vanilla, toasted wood, orange marmalade, hazelnut, bone dry, smooth, long nutty finish

Expert Reviews - Base 2021

The Wine Advocate 95 Points | Emmanuel Brochet’s NV Le Mont Benoit (2021 base), which includes 40% reserve wines from 2020 and 2019, was disgorged in May 2024 with a dosage of four grams per liter—slightly higher than usual. He notes that this modest adjustment was necessitated by the incisive profile of the base vintage. The wine unfurls from the glass with aromas of green apple, chamomile and peeled almond. On the palate, it’s medium-bodied, chiseled, bright and laden with electric acidity, culminating in a long, chalky finish marked by a distinctive bitterness. Stylistically, this bottling slightly diverges from recent iterations shaped by a string of warm vintages, but qualitatively speaking, it is unmistakably the same superb cuvée. While Brochet himself expresses a degree of dissatisfaction due to its higher malic acid, such critique speaks to the standards of a perfectionist. This rendition, in all likelihood, will age beautifully over the coming years.  

Memo Summary Notes

The Emmanuel Brochet Rosé de Saignée Extra Brut "R21" is a highly sought-after, "unicorn" grower Champagne. It is crafted by Emmanuel Brochet, a cult producer based in Villers-aux-Nœuds on the Montagne de Reims, known for his tiny production and extremely meticulous organic farming.

The "R21" notation indicates that the base year for this non-vintage release is the 2021 harvest.

Jeb Dunnuck 93 Points | The 2022 Château La Tour Blanche is juicy and lively, with an exotic nose of honeyed orange, white chocolate, flowers, and hints of mint.

Encomienda de Cervera Vulcanus Sauvignon Blanc/Verdejo — Campo de Calatrava 2025

Encomienda de Cervera is one of Spain’s most singular estate wineries — a historic property with documented vineyard records dating to 1741, situated in the Campo de Calatrava, a volcanic appellation in Castilla-La Mancha that remains one of the country’s best-kept secrets. The estate’s vineyards grow on volcanic soils at 750–850 meters of altitude, cooled by mountain microclimates with cold nights that preserve natural acidity and generate exceptional aromatic complexity. Vulcanus — named for the volcanic terroir that defines it — is a blend of Sauvignon Blanc and Verdejo, harvested selectively during the coolest hours of the day at optimal ripeness. Certified organic, the wine is fermented in restored 1927 concrete tanks that impart a distinctive creaminess through malolactic fermentation. This is Spanish white wine from a place unlike any other.

The color is a bright straw yellow. The nose is floral, fresh, and expressive: white flowers, white peach, currant, citrus, and aromatic herbs, with the stony, mineral undercurrent of volcanic soil. On the palate, it is mineral, elegant, and complex — refreshing acidity, a round and creamy mid-palate from concrete tank fermentation, and a long, clean, and satisfying finish. An explosion of sensations in perfect balance.

Parmigiano Reggiano from Craver Giorgio Cravero’s family has selected and aged Parmigiano Reggiano in Bra, Italy since 1855.  Just off the main drag of the town of Bra, home to Slow Food’s biennial Cheese festival, lie the halls of Cravero. Twenty-foot high rooms that hold five thousand wheels of Parmigiano Reggiano. Cravero’s wheels rest on pine and they turn their wheels more frequently than other agers with an aim to
make a softer, less cakey texture.

Aging rooms like Cravero’s have long been a part of the cycle of making and selling Parmigiano Reggiano, much like they are for other long-aged cheeses like Comté and Gouda, cheeses whose lengthy affinage represents a real cash flow issue to farmers and cheesemakers.

Milk: Pasteurized goat's milk (Saanen breed)

Producer: Fromagerie l'Amuse / Cooperative dairy in Zijerveld, Netherlands

Affinage: Aged approximately 18 months

Style: Aged Gouda

Origin: Netherlands

Betty Koster founded Fromagerie l'Amuse in Amsterdam in 1989 alongside her husband Martin. A destination for serious cheese lovers, l'Amuse is celebrated for its rare, small-production Dutch gems — among them Wilde Weide and Terschelling. Betty's decades-long relationships with Dutch farmers, cheesemakers, and opleggers (affineurs) grant her access to an unparalleled range of wheels, selected and aged to her exacting standards.

"Black Betty" — also known as Brabander Reserve — is the crown jewel of that cellar. Pressed from the milk of Saanen goats and aged far beyond the typical Brabander, it develops a firm yet yielding paste studded with crystalline casein crunch. Layers of sweet caramel and toasted nuttiness unfold slowly, with a clean, bright finish that only goat's milk can deliver.

The reigning queen of aged Gouda, to which all others simply bow.

Essex and Rueda bring this classic Spanish goat cheese to the table in its most authentic form: fresh, hand-crafted, and expressive of the sun-drenched landscapes and aromatic herbs of southern Spain. The goats graze freely in the Andalusian countryside, producing milk of exceptional richness and character that translates directly into the cheese.

Bright and lactic on the nose, Gaditano Goat Cheese is fresh and creamy in texture with a clean, tangy acidity and a gentle minerality on the finish. It is supple and moist, with a flavor profile that is at once delicate and deeply satisfying.

Feta PDO | Florina, Northern Greece
Size: 7 oz  |  PDO Protected · Artisan · Third-Generation Family Farm

Essex Street Cheese is one of New York’s most respected specialty cheese importers, sourcing exceptional small-production cheeses from producers who are doing things the right way. Their Feta Voras comes from the far northwestern corner of Greece — the mountainous province of Florina, covered in wildflowers and herbs, as far from the Aegean islands as you can get and still be in Greece. This is rugged, pastoral land, and the cheese it produces reflects that character entirely.

Made by brothers Andreas and Sokratis, a small third-generation family firm, Feta Voras carries PDO (Protected Designation of Origin) status — a guarantee of traditional production methods and authentic Greek provenance. The result is a creamy, crumbly feta with a clean, tangy flavor and a richness that comes from the quality of the milk and the care of the makers. The kind of feta you’ll want as a permanent staple in your refrigerator.

“Mountainous land, covered in wildflowers and herbs… a creamy, crumbly cheese that you’ll want as a staple in your home.”

Crafted from raw cow's milk, primarily from Montbéliarde cows grazing on the lush mountain pastures of the Franche-Comté region, this traditional French Alpine cheese reflects centuries of cheesemaking expertise. Each wheel is slowly matured in the historic Fort Saint Antoine, a former military fortress transformed into one of France's most distinguished cheese-aging cellars.

Rather than selecting cheeses solely by age, Essex Street Cheese carefully tastes and chooses individual wheels for their exceptional flavor, balance, and maturity, ensuring that every selection showcases the finest qualities of authentic Comté.

Tasting Notes

Beautifully golden with a firm yet smooth, creamy texture, this extra-aged Comté offers remarkable depth and complexity. Rich aromas of toasted hazelnuts, roasted cashews, and sweet cream mingle with delicate hints of meadow grass, caramelized onions, and earthy undertones.

On the palate, savory and nutty flavors unfold alongside subtle fruity sweetness, buttery richness, and a pleasantly lingering finish. Extended aging brings additional concentration and character while preserving the cheese's signature elegance and balance.

Serving Suggestions & Pairings

Perfect for an elegant cheese board, this Comté is delicious served with crusty French baguettes, fresh pears, apples, toasted walnuts, and dried fruits. Its rich, savory character also makes it outstanding for gourmet grilled cheese sandwiches, gratins, fondue, and French onion soup.

For wine pairings, enjoy with a mineral-driven White Burgundy, traditional Jura Chardonnay, Champagne, or a delicate Pinot Noir. For a classic regional pairing, try it alongside a glass of Jura Vin Jaune.

A true French classic, this beautifully matured Comté delivers extraordinary character and refinement, making it a standout addition to any cheese collection or gourmet entertaining occasion.

One of the most decorated value bourbons in America — Evan Williams Black Label consistently punches well above its price point, earning scores that rival bottles costing three times as much. Distilled at Heaven Hill in Bardstown, Kentucky, it's a straight bourbon aged in new charred American oak, delivering the classic Kentucky profile with remarkable depth and polish at 86 proof.

The nose opens with milk chocolate, marshmallow, and freshly mown hay — inviting and complex. On the palate, a sweet entry gives way to mild oak, a warm ember glow, and woodsy notes of vanilla and almond butter. The finish lingers with a touch of honey. Exceptional neat, and a workhorse in cocktails.
