Alois Lageder is one of Alto Adige’s most respected names — a producer with a long and principled commitment to organic and biodynamic farming at a time when such things were far from fashionable. Riff is their answer to a simple question: what does a thoughtfully farmed, honestly made Italian white wine taste like at an accessible price? The answer, vintage after vintage, is this.

Elk Cove Estate Pinot Gris — Willamette Valley, Oregon 2024

Elk Cove Vineyards is one of Oregon’s founding and most respected estate wineries, established in 1974 in the northern Willamette Valley near Gaston. From the beginning, the Campbell family has farmed sustainably and focused on cool-climate varieties that express the unique terroir of their hillside estate vineyards — and Pinot Gris has become their most beloved white wine. Their approach is meticulous: whole-cluster pressing preserves the grape’s aromatic delicacy, followed by cool fermentation in small stainless steel tanks that protects varietal character and builds natural richness. The 2024 vintage was, by the winemaker’s own account, a dream season — well-paced with idyllic conditions for cool-climate whites, delivering concentration, complexity, and pristine fruit character.

A small but meaningful addition of 4% Gewurztraminer and 2% Muscat adds a gorgeous aromatic lift to the Pinot Gris base. The nose is understated and elegant: peach, apricot, honeysuckle, and bread dough, with a whisper of warm spice. On the palate, the wine is medium-bodied, textural, and savory, with gently honeyed stone fruit flavors, bright acidity, and a beautifully long, flavorful finish. Just 3.6 grams of residual sugar keep it fresh and food-friendly without tipping into sweetness.

Gruet Brut Gold Label — New Mexico, USA

The story of Gruet is one of the great surprises in American wine. In 1984, the Gruet family of Champagne, France — already celebrated producers in the heart of the world’s most famous sparkling wine region — planted vineyards at 4,300 feet elevation in the New Mexico desert. What they discovered was a high-altitude terroir of remarkable character: cool nights, intense sun, and volcanic soils that produce grapes of exceptional natural acidity and finesse. The Gold Label Brut is their flagship cuvée: a Pinot Noir and Chardonnay blend crafted in the traditional méthode champenoise, with fine persistent bubbles, elegant brioche notes, and a crisp, refreshing finish that rivals sparkling wines at twice the price. Decanter awarded it 90 points. At $16.99, it is one of the most exciting values in American sparkling wine.

The nose is elegant and inviting: meringue, hints of lavender, and a whisper of molten candle wax. On the palate, fresh-cut apple flesh, wild honey, and quince come forward with brisk, satisfying acidity and a clean, persistent finish. Fine bubbles carry the wine from start to finish with real Champagne-house precision.

Grooner is a collaboration between importer Monika Caha & Toni Silver of Monika Caha Selections and Meinhard Forstreiter of Weingut Forstreiter — one of Austria's most respected family estates. The Forstreiter family has been making wine in Krems-Hollenburg in the Kremstal since 1868, farming 69 acres of vineyards along the banks of the Danube River, directly across from the Wachau. The estate was named Top 100 Wineries of the Year by Wine & Spirits Magazine, and Meinhard Forstreiter has brought the property to a new level of quality through a combination of advanced modern technology and sound, sustainable viticulture.

The Grooner Grüner Veltliner is sourced from Forstreiter's vineyards on south- and east-facing terraces above the Danube, planted on the distinctive Hollenburger Konglomerat — a unique soil formation of compressed Ice Age gravel from the Danube riverbanks, layered with loess, clay, and sandy soils. This exceptional terroir, combined with the Kremstal's continental microclimate, produces Grüner Veltliner of natural freshness, mineral depth, and the characteristic white pepper spice the variety is celebrated for.

Vinification follows Forstreiter's meticulous approach: careful temperature-controlled fermentation to preserve the grape's aromatic vibrancy and varietal character. The result is a Qualitätswein (appellation-controlled) wine of genuine quality — fun and approachable in style, but crafted with the same artisanal care as all Forstreiter wines.

The 2024 Grooner is crisp, refreshing, and peppery, with inviting aromas and flavors of citrus, green apple, and cool stone fruit. On the palate, the wine is balanced and lively, with bright acidity, a clean mineral thread, and a fresh, clean finish. The quintessential food-friendly Austrian white.

The Villa Wolf Pinot Noir Rosé is made with fruit from vineyards that are farmed expressly for the purpose of producing a true rosé (no saignée or coloring with red wine). Only perfectly ripe, healthy grapes are selected.

Upon harvest, the fruit is given a brief maceration (four to six hours) to extract a lovely pink color from the Pinot Noir grapes.

The wine is delicate and refreshing, with deliciously bright fruit flavors and a clean, zippy finish.
