Italian Beauty
“Allegrini’s 2003 Amarone Classico (80% Corvina, 15% Rondinella, 5% Oseleta) reveals a super-opulent, engaging texture packed with sweet cocoa, dark fruit, cassis,
blackberries, roasted coffee beans and licorice. It finishes with notable length and surprising finish for the vintage. According to Allegrini, the rain that fell in July was critical in
maintaining some balance in the wine. This medium to full-bodied wine is an outstanding example of a more restrained, clean style of Amarone”.– Antonio Galloni, Wine
Advocate. Anticipated maturity: 2007-2013.

Mad About Malbec
If you’re mad for Malbec, bid high and take home this 1.5L of 2005 Bodegas Catena Zapata Catena Alta Malbec (93 pts, WA). “The 2005 Alta Malbec was aged for 18
months in 70% new French oak before bottling without fining or filtration. The nicely perfumed bouquet reveals wood smoke, cedar, leather, black cherry and black raspberry.
On the palate it is suave, layered, and richly fruity, with lots of spice notes and well-integrated oak, tannin and acidity. It will evolve for 3-5 years and be at its best from 2011 to
2020. The Catena Zapata portfolio is stunning from entry-level to top-of-the-line. As an aside, during my visit to Catena-Zapata in April, 2008, I tasted many barrel samples of
2006s and 2007s. The components, particularly of the 2006s are astounding; the best is yet to come.” – Jay Miller, Wine Advocate

Falesco
The Falesco winery is located in Umbria, in the municipality of Montecchio, the South-West area bordering on Lazio. Its vineyards extend over an area straddling the border
between Lazio and Umbria, from Lake Bolsena to the hills surrounding Orvieto. The climatic and pedologic characteristics of this territory are similar. The hills stretching from
Montefi ascone to Orvieto are partly volcanic and partly sedimentary in origin and both kinds of soil are particularly suited to the growing of vines as witnessed by the centuryold tradition of the zone. S. Mondini affirms that as early as the 19th century several foreign varietals were cultivated in Lazio, some in quite remarkable proportions and
specialized in the vineyards... Cabernet, Carignane, Gamay, Grenache, Merlot, Malbec, Pinot, Sauvignon, Syrah... Lazio generally proves to be an area where the
advantages from the cultivation of the foreign varietals are remarkable, especially for what concerns the ones coming from France.. In the countryside surrounding Rome,
Frosinone and Viterbo, it’s widely held that they contribute to the improvement of the local wine production.

Calera
Owner, Josh Jensen's winemaker mentors in Burgundy were adamant that pinot noir and chardonnay must be grown in limestone-rich soils, as present in the Côtes d’Or, to
make great wines. Upon his return from France in 1971 he spent two years searching throughout California to find limestone before finally purchasing, in early 1974, a highelevation parcel with a limestone deposit of several million tons. Located 90 miles south of San Francisco and about 25 miles inland from the Pacific Ocean, it is near Mt.
Harlan in San Benito County. Its elevation is 2,200 feet above sea level, making it one of the highest and coldest vineyard properties in California. Limestone had been
commercially quarried from Jensen’s Mt. Harlan property a hundred years earlier, and to this day, next to his Viognier vineyard, there stands a magnificently well-preserved
30-foot tall masonry limekiln. The name “Calera” is the Spanish world for “limekiln,” which serves as the winery’s symbol and appears on every bottle of wine.

Paraiso Pioneers
Bid high and take home this parcel of Paraiso. Paraiso’s 400-acre estate vineyard lies at the southern end of the Santa Lucia Highlands AVA in Monterey County, California.
Wine grape pioneers of the region, Rich and Claudia Smith began planting this property in 1973. Today, Rich and his son Jason manage almost 150,000 vines in 16 different
blocks. The Smith family’s winegrowing experience over the years has earned them a best-quality reputation, translating into high demand for their wine grapes. In addition to
supplying fruit for the Paraiso Vineyards wine label, the family sells grapes under contract to several other ultra-premium wine producers. Early bud break and fruit set, along
with extended hang time, are big advantages of the Paraiso’s Highlands location. Current fads aside, the Smiths have employed sustainable farming techniques since day
one. Rich was a founding member of the Central Coast Vineyard Team, an organization that later created the state’s first sustainable farming certification for wine grapes,
called Sustainability in Practice, or SIPTM Certified Sustainable. Paraiso Vineyards was the first vineyard in the Santa Lucia Highlands to earn the certification in 2008.

Nils Venge & Saddleback Cellars
Known as “The King of Cabernet,” legendary winemaker and owner, Nils Venge, has been making stellar Cabernet Sauvignon, along with many other varietals here since its
establishment. Nils’ philosophy on making wines for Saddleback is that they must reflect the best qualities that Sonoma Valley has to offer; sometimes a single vineyard,
sometimes a single appellation, or a blend of appellations to make the best wine in a particular vintage. Despite his reputation as “The King,” Nils is a down-to-earth, cheerful,
full-of-life kind of guy whose wines not only reflect the character of their region, but also seem to reflect his personality – bold, yet approachable, friendly and fun yet with layers
of complexities. This is one lot you won’t want to be outbid on! It includes:
1 - 1.5L of 2005 Saddleback Cellars Sonoma Valley Oakville Cabernet Sauvignon (91 pts, RP)
