Falconry is thousands of years old, and it lives on in the hills of San Gimignano 🦅🍷

UNESCO lists falconry as living heritage. At Podere La Marronaia, an organic and biodynamic estate in Tuscany, a professional falconer shows you why: how falcons hunt with speed, hawks with ambush, owls in silence, and why the bird is never forced to return. It chooses to.

After the flight, four estate wines, extra virgin olive oil, traditional balsamic and Tuscan bites with the valley in front of you. Two hours, groups of 2 to 30, free cancellation up to 48 hours before.

Polkura means yellow stone in Mapuche, and on Polkura Hill in Marchigue, Colchagua Valley, that name is literal.
Yellow granite runs through the clay soils where this Chilean winery grows its Syrah. Polkura says the decomposed granite brings mineral character and elegance, while the clay brings body and structure.
Some parcels are dry farmed, relying only on winter rain.
Taste it where it begins.

Alexander Valley, Sonoma County.
Cabernet country an hour north of Napa, and almost nobody talks about it.

Warm days, cool nights pulled in off the Russian River, and old vines that are still worked by hand. This is the part of California wine country that still feels like farmland instead of a destination.

Save this one for your next Sonoma trip.

Last year one of our partner wineries lost its entire crop to hail.

This summer they installed a hail cannon. Four metres of steel over a combustion chamber, solar powered, wired to a weather station. It reads the conditions and fires on its own, roughly every four seconds, for as long as the cell is overhead.

They report five percent damage from the storm that followed, against an estimated thirty percent without it.

Sixty years of hail suppression in Mendoza produced no clear measurable reduction. Netting is the only method whose result can be inspected after the storm, and most classic appellations will not permit it over the vines.

So a grower is choosing between a subsidised insurance policy and a machine nobody can test from the yard.

I want to hear from people actually farming.

What do you use? Nets, cannon, rockets, insurance, spread parcels, or nothing. And would you buy the same thing again?

Udine is the capital of Friuli, and it is where wine stopped being a tourist product.
Ninety minutes from Venice sits a square most people never see, arcades nobody photographs, and a ritual called the tajut: one small glass of wine, drunk standing, in the middle of an ordinary day.
Around the city lie the Colli Orientali, a region famous for white wine, though the glass on a local table is usually Refosco, the dark native red they mostly keep for themselves.
This is what wine culture looks like when it is not performed for visitors.

Sounds of the Chardonnay harvest in Šumadija. That hill in the opening shot is Oplenac, with St. George’s Church standing above Topola, and the rows below it are Ježevac, one of the Aleksandrović vineyard sites.

Everything picked here ends up in five wines: Aberdar Superior, Harizma, Trijumf Terroir, Tema and Trijumf Chardonnay Sparkling.

Turn the sound on. Then come stand in it yourself, tastings at Aleksandrović are bookable through Winera | Wine experiences, link in bio.

Teroldego grows in one triangle of land in the world. Piana Rotaliana in Trentino, 432 hectares, nowhere else.

Our host Holly Friel explained why. The valley floor is silt from the Adige river mixed with rock from the Noce, and that combination is the reason they call Teroldego the prince of Trentino.

Nadia grows hers down in the valley, some of it in garden vineyards behind houses in town, while up on the mountain she keeps only white grapes for sparkling wine.

One estate, two altitudes.

Harvest 2026 has officially started at Aleksandrović Winery, and it begins the way it always does, with Chardonnay.
We spent day one in the vineyards above Topola with the people who decide when the grapes come in.
They told us how this vintage is shaping up, what made this year difficult, and summed up the whole harvest in three words.

Everything picked today ends up in five wines: Aberdar, Harizma, Trijumf Terroir, Tema and Trijumf Chardonnay Sparkling.
, Oplenac vineyards, one hour from Belgrade, over 300 international awards behind them.

Wine tastings and food and wine pairings at Aleksandrović are bookable through Winera | Wine experiences, link in bio.
