(stock up before November)

Anna spent her childhood in and around the cellars of her family winery, Steininger. She has her Masters in International Wine Marketing and has worked in vineyards all over the world.
Beatriz Herranz of Barco del Corneta
Only in her early thirties, Beatriz returned to her family village and the vineyards of her grandfather to begin this project
Anna Martens of Vino di Anna
Originally from Adelaide, Australia, Anna worked on vintages in Burgundy, Stellenbosch, New Zealand, Mendoza, and Corbières, before starting her own project with husband, Eric Narioo, on Mt Etna, Sicily.
Stefania Carrea of Terre di Maté
Inheriting the vineyards from her father, Stefania decided work the land, experimenting, and ultimately producing her own natural wines.
Ruth Campelo Gonzales of Narupa
Dreamers at heart, Ruth and Rosa have worked to create this true expression of their family's land, using grapes from 30 year old vines.
Silvana Forte of Le Due Terre
Starting in the early 1980s, Silvana and her husband were looked at as fools for working naturally and creating organic wines. Clearly, they have proved the naysayers wrong.
Giovanna Tiezza of Pacina
Taking over the estate, originally a monastery dating back to 900AD, and later bought by her grandparents, Giovanna and her husband, Stefano, are leading the way with organic farming in Tuscany.
