This wine really makes it all happen. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAs to the wine itself – the full name is Fattoria Villa Ligi Vernaculum Pergola Aleatico. That’s a bit of a mystery—even to people who know Italian wine well—so I’ll break it down for you. The vineyard (farm and house, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003efattoria, villa\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e) are named after the fifth-generation daughter of the family, Ligi. The rest, in a wonderful Italian twist, gets even more confusing. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eVernaculum\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e is the name of the wine, but in this case it is doing double duty. Is an Italian way to refer to the Latin word \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003evernaculus\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e, and you can probably guess its meaning – in Latin, native or indigenous. Which is important when coupled with the next two words, Pergola Aleatico. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePergola is also doing double-duty – it’s a style of farming wherein grapes are planted on high-above-the-head trellises. Five generations ago at Villa Ligi, this was done to maximize crops. You could grow your corn crop, or tomato, or squash, or what have you, and then also grow grapes in the same space for wine! But here, at Ligi, it is also the name of the wine appellation in the Marche of Italy. There are just three producers in this entire region, with Ligi being the founding one. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAnd now finally, the Aleatico, which is the grape’s indigenous name in Pergola. Tie it all together and you get the name of this tiny place, its grape variety, its method of viticulture, and the people producing it, all in one short phrase. Who said Italians can’t be concise? Or, if that is still hard to nail down, let’s summarize it quickly - just think of Sangiovese with a splash of Barbera for fruit richness, and a little touch of Montepulciano for spice. But in the end, what matters the most is the charming pleasure this wine brings.

In Bordeaux’s gentle western reaches, where the clay-limestone soils hold cool nights long into the growing season, this 2024 Clairet unfurls like a breath caught between rosé’s blush and red’s resolve: alive with fruit yet anchored in structure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"590\" data-end=\"1071\"\u003eOn the nose, the wine is at once inviting and curious. Crushed wild strawberries and red currant skins mingle with a soft hitch of pomegranate seed, turning slowly toward the deeper beckon of sour cherry and just-ripe plum. There’s a whisper of bruised rose, a hint of lavender clipped from a field on a warm afternoon, and under it all, a sandy mineral thread that speaks of gravelly topsoils heated by afternoon sun.

Tannins are fine, almost filigreed, giving shape without weight, like a memory of grip more than the thing itself. The finish nudges back toward saline and earth: river pebbles warmed by sun, a trace of cedar, and the lingering echo of berry skin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1688\" data-end=\"2276\"\u003eThis is a Clairet that doesn’t hide its roots.

It invites you to pair it with the easy poetry of food — ceviche of the day’s catch, grilled sweetbreads with herb butter, or a hunk of stone-baked bread slathered in Bordelaise pâté — and lingers like the memory of summer light on water as the next glass beckons.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Select Sellars","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48369796841705,"sku":"515106","price":17.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0579\/2805\/7022\/files\/IMG-2453.png?v=1768253887"},{"product_id":"chateau-des-loges-3-madones-beaujolais-villages","title":"Chateau des Loges 3 Madones Beaujolais Villages","description":"\u003cp\u003eBright, clear ruby.
