Valle Perido

Lake Chalice Wines is one of the few remaining privately and locally owned wine companies in New Zealand and is located in the country's main wine-growing region, Marlborough. Launched in 1989 on a 11ha (28 acre), stony paddock in Rapaura, Wairau Valley, we now own four key vineyard sites, and we also source fruit from several carefully selected contract growers. Founders Chris Gambitsis and Phil Binnie, who were joined in 1998 by winemaker Matt Thomson, share a simple philosophy: to make quality varietal wines. We are a proud sponsor of the Wingspan Birds of Prey Trust, dedicated to preserving New Zealand's raptors. Our vineyards enjoy the climatic conditions which have made Marlborough the main wine-growing region for New Zealand: warm, sunny autumn days, coupled with cool nights produce wines with a vibrancy and zing.

Monchiero Carbone

This piemontese proverb is on all of the Monchiero Carbone labels. Literally, it means 'every door has its clapper' but the symbolic meaning of the phrase is 'behind every door there is a secret' and for the Monchiero Carbone family; the secret is their winemaking. Our wine production began during the beginning of the 1900's when Clotilde Valente (the grandmother on the Monchiero side of the family) purchased with her dowry the Monbirone vineyards in Canale in the Roero area of Piedmont. She focused on making high-quality wines intended for aging, something very unusual for the time. In 1990, Marco and Francesco Carbone started vinifying and three years later, Francesco took over as General Manager. Today, the Monchiero Carbone wines feature some of the finest wines in the Roero, made from varieties such as Moscato, Barbera, Brachetto, Arneis, and Nebbiolo.

Fattoria Le Fonti

Halfway between Florence and Siena, in the heart of the Chianti Classico region, lies the small village of Panzano and the Fattoria Le Fonti. Since 1994, the Schmitt-Vitali family has replanted all of the vineyards, taking great care in selecting the right type of root stock, and has also renovated the cellars, incorporating the latest technology to help them make better and longer lasting wines. The fattoria is small and completely family-run, employing only a couple of outside workers, and they depend on family manpower and taste from the harvest to the final blend. Le Fonti's small size and dedicated family involvement allow for meticulous care of the vineyard, ensuring that only the best grapes reach the cellar and only the finest blends get bottled as our Toscana Rosso IGT and Chianti Classico DOCG. Our

Carrick

Carrick is an integrated organic vineyard, winery, restaurant and cellar door in Bannockburn, Central Otago, New Zealand. Known for quality premium Pinot Noir, we also grow and make Chardonnay, Riesling, and Pinot Gris - wines noted for their fruit expression and clarity. Steve Green is our owner-manager. The winery's philosophy is reflected in the care of the vineyard and environment – with a flock of free range hens, giant compost heaps and a community garden.

Colterenzio

The Colterenzio winery is located at Cornaiano, one of the several picturesque villages nestled among cool, rolling vine-covered hills to the south of Bolzano in Alto Adige. Its wines unite crisp, Alpine fragrance with Mediterranean spice and warmth. We produce a broad family of wines, including Pinot Grigio, Chardonnay, Gewurztraminer, Lagrein, Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Bianco, most of which are vineyard designated..

Viñas del Vero

Viñas del Vero is more than just a winery, it is a philosophy. Every bottle bears the stamp of an enthusiastic dynamic and innovative team that have enjoyed taking care of the tiniest detail since 1986. It is located in Somontano, the Spanish wine region in the foothills of the Pyrenees, and takes its name from the main river in the region of Somontano, which is famous for adventure tourism because of its ravines, gorges and canyons. Viñas del Vero boasts a mix of international and native grape varieties planted in their extensive vineyards with a specific commitment to the recovery of Somontano’s traditional varieties such as Garnacha. The winemaking team firmly believes in the potential of these indigenous varieties for the production of distinguished, unforgettable wines, such as Blecua, Secastilla and La Miranda. The Viñas del Vero vineyards also include Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Tempranillo, Syrah, Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Gewürztraminer..
