"Sally McBride's mind is sharp, clever, and reasonable. She writes science fiction, not merely stories within a sci-fi sandbox. The stories are precise, the characters clear, and all of it is swaddled in kindness and respect. I felt bits of Steven Utley, Orson Scott Card, and the occasional elder Ray Bradbury..."

Understanding Avignonesi: Their Practices, Culture and Single-Vineyard Wines #samples @avignonesi #VinoNobile #Montepulciano #Tuscany
https://pullthatcork.com/2023/understanding-avignonesi-single-vineyard-wines/
Avignonesi is situated in the hills of Tuscany on the edge of Vino Nobile di Montepulciano DOCG near the Cortona DOC. Vino Nobile di Montepulciano is their flagship wine and while they are Sangiovese specialists, and dedicated to the variety, they are also looking to native grape varieties as a hedge against climate change. Their organic and biodynamic practices in the vineyard are carried into the wine cellar. All of this is happening under the ownership of Virginie Saverys who is also dedicated to making a social impact benefiting Avignonesi's workers and the wider community.

The Elena Walch winery in Alto Adige / Sudtirol is iconic and inspirational. Elena’s arrival in 1980s launched a quality transformation that would reset what was possible for this mountainous region that is part Italian and part German.
Having sold these wines since 2004 - first at Walt Churchill’s Market and now at Cutting Edge Selections - I was incredibly honored to be given a tour of the cellars with Owner/Winemaker Karoline Walch.
