Raffaldini Releases first of Four Botanical Wines
Made from Sangiovese and Montepulciano grapes and infused with Strawberry and Basil, this botanical sparkling rose is aromatic, refreshing and delicious. Designed in the style made famous by the classic 1950s movie “Roman Holiday” with Gregory Peck and Audrey Hepburn, sipping this off-dry bubbly will take you to Italy and a slower pace of life where time is joyously spent with friends and family.
Mark your calendars for the weekend of June 8th when we will pour tastings of our newest effort, the first of four fruit and herbal infused sparkling rose wines. No reservations necessary.

Chianti in the Carolinas Claims 94 points, Platinum at Int'l Winemaker Challenge
Our acclaimed 2022 Sangiovese Classico, honored with the prestigious platinum award, boasting an impressive 94 points and clinching the title of Best Sangiovese in show among entries worldwide at the 2024 Director's Awards at the Winemaker Challenge International Wine Competition. Crafted with precision and passion, this exceptional vintage captivates with its unparalleled quality and distinct character, promising an unforgettable journey for wine enthusiasts. Stay tuned as we proudly feature this triumph front and center in our upcoming newsletter, inviting you to savor the excellence of our award-winning creation. Cheers to indulging in greatness.
Sangiovese is the grape used to make Chianti and is notoriously difficult to grow in climates that are not arid. Taking care of this grape is a labor of love and our plantings (lead by a clone called Vino Nobile) produces sensual and soft wines with beautiful aromatics and balance. The grapes are also put through the Appassimento drying process to further concentrate their structure. Finally, we use another Italian technique called Ripasso which utilizes grape skins that have been dried for other wines and “repass” the fresh wine over the skins to further deepen the wine. This wine is light and elegant with plenty of fresh red fruit and floral notes.

After nearly two decades of having Raffaldini wines available exclusively at the Villa we have found a wholesale distribution firm that targets wine shops and restaurants rather than mass supermarket, etc. We sought to build connections with independent retailers and restaurateurs so we can still tell our story to the sales outlet and build on the connection that we have with all of you. To begin, we agreed to have two value-based wines (Bella Misto and Bianco) as well as higher end (Vermentino Superiore and Montepulciano Riserva) available for sale.

Meet Monty and Brenda, the dynamic duo behind the lens and beloved members of our wine club community. You may recognize them as the ones always capturing the magic, with cameras dangling from Monty's neck at our events.
Their wine journey spans many years, dating back to 2000 when Monty began crafting dry reds, dry whites, port, and sherry, adding a splash of Christian Brothers Brandy to the latter for an extra kick. While Monty hasn't made wine since 2015, their passion for wine has only deepened.
Their connection with Raffaldini Vineyards goes back to our early days. As some of our very first wine club members in 2008, they've been an integral part of our community. Whether it's attending events or simply relishing a bottle of wine while soaking in the scenic views, Monty and Brenda epitomize the essence of our vineyard experience.

After nearly two decades of having Raffaldini wines available exclusively at the Villa we have found a wholesale distribution firm that targets wine shops and restaurants rather than mass supermarket, etc. We sought to build connections with independent retailers and restaurateurs so we can still tell our story to the sales outlet and build on the connection that we have with all of you. To begin, we agreed to have two value-based wines (Bella Misto and Bianco) as well as higher end (Vermentino Superiore and Montepulciano Riserva) available for sale.
To locate a store near you, simply go to raffaldini.com then hover your mouse over shop on the header. When the drop down menu appears, click "Find Raffaldini Wines" at the bottom of the list. Once on the Raffaldini Store Locator, you can use the drop down to search by type or location or type in your zip code and search a radius for outlets near you. If you don’t see your favorite wine shop listed please email me directly at jay@raffaldini.com and I will work with our wholesale partner to get them in the store near you.

2022 Sangiovese Classico - Sangiovese is the grape used to make Chianti and is notoriously difficult to grow in climates that are not arid. Taking care of this grape is a labor of love and our plantings (lead by a clone called Vino Nobile) produces sensual and soft wines with beautiful aromatics and balance. We also put some of these grapes through the Appassimento drying process to further concentrate their structure. Finally we use another Italian technique called Ripasso which utilizes grape skins that have been dried for other wines and “repass” the fresh wine over the skins to further deepen the wine.
2023 Vermentino Superiore - Our largest white planting this is our signature grape which we make in two distinctly different styles (the other being Desaria). Our Vermentino is made similar to the wine commonly found in the Italian island of Sardinia with its beautiful minerality and saline features which reminds drinkers of Mediterranean summers. Vermentino grows effortlessly on our property and when it arrives at the winery there is little winemaker intervention that takes place. It is simply a lovely wine that thrives here.

WINE CLUB MEMBER FEATURE
Keith and Mary Lou Church
“Beekeeping has been a part of my life since I was a child here in Wilkes. On average I manage 20 honey bee hives per year but have had up to 40. Being a hobby that has turned into a micro business, it is still a passion. I am a Certified Beekeeper and NC Certified Honey Producer. I enjoy sharing my knowledge and experience with others. Living in Wilkes we have 2 honey seasons and therefore 2 honey varieties, Wildflower honey in the Spring and Sourwood honey in Summer. The most fun is selling my honey at festivals and at Raffaldini Vineyards so I can meet people and listen to the stories they share.”
Please email Keith to purchase honey or learn more about the farm.

Cabrini - in Theaters March 8
Cabrini is the powerful epic of Francesca Severio Cabrini, an Italian immigrant and Catholic missionary who arrives in New York City in 1889 and is greeted by disease, crime, and impoverished children. Cabrini sets off on a daring mission to convince the hostile mayor to secure housing and healthcare for society's most vulnerable. With broken English, poor health and fighting against the prevalent anti-Italian sentiment of the times, Cabrini uses her entrepreneurial mind to build an empire of hope unlike anything the world had ever seen. On July 7, 1946, she became the first United States citizen to be canonized a saint by the Roman Catholic Church, and in 1950 Pope Pius XII formally proclaimed St. Frances Xavier Cabrini as the Patroness of Immigrants,recognizing her efforts on their behalf across the Americas in schools, orphanages, hospitals, and prisons.

WINE CLUB MEMBER FEATURE
Keith and Mary Lou Church
“Beekeeping has been a part of my life since I was a child here in Wilkes. On average I manage 20 honey bee hives per year but have had up to 40. Being a hobby that has turned into a micro business, it is still a passion. I am a Certified Beekeeper and NC Certified Honey Producer. I enjoy sharing my knowledge and experience with others. Living in Wilkes we have 2 honey seasons and therefore 2 honey varieties, Wildflower honey in the Spring and Sourwood honey in Summer. The most fun is selling my honey at festivals and at Raffaldini Vineyards so I can meet people and listen to the stories they share.”
Please email Keith to purchase honey or learn more about the farm.

Cabrini - in Theaters March 8
Cabrini is the powerful epic of Francesca Severio Cabrini, an Italian immigrant and Catholic missionary who arrives in New York City in 1889 and is greeted by disease, crime, and impoverished children. Cabrini sets off on a daring mission to convince the hostile mayor to secure housing and healthcare for society's most vulnerable. With broken English, poor health and fighting against the prevalent anti-Italian sentiment of the times, Cabrini uses her entrepreneurial mind to build an empire of hope unlike anything the world had ever seen. On July 7, 1946, she became the first United States citizen to be canonized a saint by the Roman Catholic Church, and in 1950 Pope Pius XII formally proclaimed St. Frances Xavier Cabrini as the Patroness of Immigrants,recognizing her efforts on their behalf across the Americas in schools, orphanages, hospitals, and prisons.

After nearly two decades of having Raffaldini wines available exclusively at the Villa we have found a wholesale distribution firm that targets wine shops and restaurants rather than mass supermarket, etc. We sought to build connections with independent retailers and restaurateurs so we can still tell our story to the sales outlet and build on the connection that we have with all of you. To begin, we agreed to have two value-based wines (Bella Misto and Bianco) as well as higher end (Vermentino Superiore and Montepulciano Riserva) available for sale.
To locate a store near you, simply go to raffaldini.com then hover your mouse over shop on the header. When the drop down menu appears, click "Find Raffaldini Wines" at the bottom of the list. Once on the Raffaldini Store Locator, you can use the drop down to search by type or location or type in your zip code and search a radius for outlets near you. If you don’t see your favorite wine shop listed please email me directly at jay@raffaldini.com and I will work with our wholesale partner to get them in the store near you.

Raffaldini Olive Oils and Vinegars Are Back!
They are joined by two new products, White Balsamic vinegar, and Black Balsamic Vinegar. The White Balsamic Vinegar is a careful blend of cooked white trebbiano grape must, and fine white wine vinegar, aged in oak barrels. The white wine vinegar is delicate and balanced, refreshing yet mature and surprisingly sweet. It is commonly used for cooking white fish or shellfish, especially because the color of the food is not affected. Good also for vinaigrettes and salads and also with breast of chicken.
Balsamic or "black" vinegar, is a strong, full bodied, mature and balanced Balsamic Vinegar of Modena IGP with a high proportion of sweet cooked grape must and a small amount of wine vinegar. Tamia Black is noble with broad shoulders, it has been aged in oak, chestnut and cherry barrels. Thick and dense, pour some onto a spoon and take a sip: it speaks for itself. A great ‘all-rounder’ for the kitchen, use it with cooked and raw vegetables, risottos, beans, mature cheeses (especially pecorino), fish, beef, lamb and pork. Also great to drizzle on fresh strawberries.
Barbara Raffaldini will be offering free tastings of the 2023 Raffaldini Tamia olive oils and the Tamia vinegars in the Tasting Room on Sunday, February 18, from 12:00pm to 4:00pm. Stop by and learn all about these new products from Barbara.

After nearly two decades of having Raffaldini wines available exclusively at the Villa we have found a wholesale distribution firm that targets wine shops and restaurants rather than mass supermarket, etc. We sought to build connections with independent retailers and restaurateurs so we can still tell our story to the sales outlet and build on the connection that we have with all of you. To begin, we agreed to have two value-based wines (Bella Misto and Bianco) as well as higher end (Vermentino Superiore and Montepulciano Riserva) available for sale.
To locate a store near you, simply go to raffaldini.com then hover your mouse over shop on the header. When the drop down menu appears, click "Find Raffaldini Wines" at the bottom of the list. Once on the Raffaldini Store Locator, you can use the drop down to search by type or location or type in your zip code and search a radius for outlets near you. If you don’t see your favorite wine shop listed please email me directly at jay@raffaldini.com and I will work with our wholesale partner to get them in the store near you.
