December is finally here and our inboxes have been flooded with Best-Of-2021 lists. What a way to wrap up the year! We have a lot to reflect on and a lot of partnerships to be proud of— among them, a new Biodynamic producer combining community with local lore, a seasonal Nordic spirit full of flora, and of course all of the big reds and bubbles crowding this month’s press…

NEW Brand Alert: Luna Gaia
Born from a partnership between Cantina Orsogna cooperative and a Sicilian winemaker at Biogaia, LunaGaia is a line of Sicilian Biodynamic Wines. The LunaGaia labels tell the story of Orlando Furioso, an Italian Epic recounting a battle between Orlando and Rinaldo, knights of Charlemagne, for the love of pagan princess Angelica. Biodynamic farming is more than a means to cultivate land – it is a life philosophy of integration and cooperation. LunaGaia focuses on varietals indigenous to Sicily, made from a well suited terroir and grown with respect to the environment. A true expression of Sicilian Tradition, from the grapes to packaging, they reflect the color and adornments of Sicilian heritage.
Raise A Glass To Our Newest Addition to the Dallas Sales Team!
Meet Levi Allen! Levi bravely joined us in the busiest time of year and we’re so grateful for the new addition. From McKinney, Texas, Levi graduated UTD with a major in History. While traveling and studying in Europe he fell in love with wine. He decided to marry his education and passion together and pursue wine as a career and hobby.
Levi’s favorite wine from our book is currently the Vino Frizzante Glera— a glorious bubble with a great balance between acidity and sweetness. Welcome, Levi!
