Wines That Soar... What do the Andean desert, Sicilian volcanoes, and a candlelit dinner table have in common? Check it out in Johnny Motley’s latest piece for Cool Material -- they’re all the perfect stage for high-altitude wines. We couldn’t agree more. From Bodega Colomé's record-breaking Altura Máxima Malbec (grown at 10,000 feet!) to Amalaya’s fresh, vibrant Cafayate blends, and Donnafugata’s volcanic expressions from Mount Etna, these bottles prove that altitude doesn’t just change the view — it transforms the wine in the glass. Gracias y grazie, Johnny, for capturing the magic of sky-high terroirs and shining a spotlight on the producers we’re proud to represent. #HighAltitudeWines Grupo Colomé #BodegaAmalaya #DonnafugataWine #FolioFineWine

Celebrating the Heartbreak Grape... We’re raising a glass to Pinot Noir—one of the world’s most expressive, beloved, and yes, most challenging varieties. Congratulations to the Dutton-Goldfield Winery team on their recent Wine Spectator review of the Dutton Ranch 2022 Pinot Noir—a brilliant reflection of Russian River excellence. Thank you, James Molesworth, for the thoughtful recognition. Across the globe, Josh Hammond, winemaker at Tiraki, joined Paul Kalemkiarian on Wine Talks to share his family’s journey building an organic, sustainable winery in New Zealand. From launching Pinot Noir and Sauvignon Blanc in the U.S. to the role of authentic storytelling in wine, it’s an inspiring conversation worth tuning into. Thank you Paul K.!

Will Cepparello Change? Isole e Olena’s Cepparello helped define the Super Tuscan era as a 100% Sangiovese benchmark. Now, with the estate joining the EPI family (alongside Biondi-Santi, Piper-Heidsieck, and Charles Heidsieck), what changes—if any—are ahead? In this in-depth podcast, Matthew Horkey speaks with wine director Emanuele Reolon about the estate’s history, its new chapter, and the road forward. Grazie mille to Dr. Horkey for the thoughtful interview! #Tuscany #IsoleeOlena #MatthewHorkey #FolioFineWinePartners #FineWine
