2025 Summer Shades of Vino Collection is Here!
In this Summer's Quarterly Wine Club Collection, we explore Italy through a global lens - not just by where Italian grapes are grown, but how their stories are told. Our Summer Shades collection showcases iconic Italian varietals like Pinot Grigio, Barbera, Nebbiolo, and Lambrusco, along with many more, expressed in both familiar and surprising ways.
From the crisp mountain-grown Chardonnay of Trentino-Alto Adige to a bold Pinot Grigio from Ukraine’s Black Sea coast, from the floral elegance of The Lampley Pinot Grigio from Michigan to the smooth Baja California Nebbiolo that stands shoulder to shoulder with its Piedmontese cousin—each wine speaks a different dialect of Italian heritage.
This release celebrates not only grape diversity, but the diversity of those who craft it. You’ll discover wines made by women, LGBTQ+, BIPOC, and multi-generational winemakers, whose perspectives give new shape and meaning to these timeless grapes. Whether it’s the dry, sparkling Lini 910 Lambrusco that redefines what this style can be, or the lush Barbera from El Dorado crafted by the women-led Teneral Cellars, these are wines that honor tradition while pushing boundaries.
Summer Shades – Italy in a New Light invites you to drink widely, think differently, and savor the many voices shaping the next chapter of how we perceive, taste and delight in Italian varietal styled wines from our worlds diverse blend of producers, winemakers and regions.
