Women's History Month: Women Making History in Wine: Caterina Dei

Caterina Dei (@cantinedei) continues the legacy her grandfather, Alibrando Dei, established in 1964 when he acquired the Bossana Vineyard in Montepulciano. Her father, Glauco Dei, was a renowned architect. At age 80 he realized his vision to build a winery of travertine marble (a family business), which is the current Cantine Dei, a stunning example of his architectural talents.

Initially Caterina Dei intended to be a professional musician and chanteuse. You can find a link to her songs on the @cantinedei website. But the music of the vines and the desire to carry on her family legacy lured her back to Cantine Dei where she grew up and where she now oversees wine production with her enologist, Paolo Caciorgna

We had the pleasure of visiting Cantine Dei during #AnteprimeToscana2023 when we tasted the wines of DOCG Vino Nobile di Montepulciano, a storied wine region renowned for its elegant Sangiovese reds. During our visit we tasted selections from different vintages of Bossona and Madonna Della Querce, Cantine Dei's two signature cru wines.

We visit with Caterine Dei on The Connected Table Live Wednesday March 15, 2pm EST to discuss her family and its estate wines. Live on W4CY Radio Or, listen on demand on your preferred podcast channel, including iHeartRadio @Spotify @applepodcasts

A special thank you to @consorzionobile

Women's History Month: Women Making History in Wine

Susana Balbo made history as Argentina’s first female winemaker. In 1999 she realized her dream of owning her own winery and established Susana Balbo Wines. In 2006 she was elected president of Wines of Argentina and served for three terms. During that time, she helped put Argentinian wines on the global map.
Serving as a standard bearer for women in wine in Argentina is only one aspect of her multi-faceted life. Susana also served as a member of the Argentine National Congress, chairing W20, an initiative focused on empowering women.

A mother and grandmother, Susana’s iconic CRIOS label is an ode to her family and to motherhood. The handprint on each label symbolizes the power of mothers to nourish, teach and inspire the next generation. The hand also reflects Susana’s work to lend a hand to elevate other women and her commitment to producing hand-crafted wines.

Tonight, we opened a bottle of CRIOS Torrontes, a native white grape of Argentina. This crisp white wine with its notes of lychee, passion fruit and citrus were a perfect Sunday night wine with our Chinese takeout, enjoyed with family.

Women's History Month: Leading Women in Wine: Delia Viader- Viader Winery, Napa- “The Wine Mother”

Born and raised in Buenos Aires, Argentina, Delia Viader is founder of family-run Viader Vineyards & Winery, located on Howell Mountain in Napa Valley. Established in 1986, Viader produces critically acclaimed small lot Bordeaux blends. @viader_napa

Delia likes to refer to herself as “The Mother of the Vines” and “Wine Mother.” Indeed, she is a mother of four including son and winemaker, Alan Viader, with whom she works closely. Delia has a Master's Degree in Business from M.I.T. and a PhD in philosophy from the Sorbonne in Paris. She speaks six languages.

Her decision to study enology and invest in remote property at 1200 feet in Howell Mountain to plant vineyards on steep, rocky slopes underscores to her entrepreneurial spirit and desire to seek out the best land to make great wines.

Viader Winery's first bottled vintage was 1989 with 1200 cases. Its 1997 vintage was named #2 in The Wine Spectator Top 100 Wines. The following year, Viader’s 1998 red blend was ranked #3. Viader's signature blend is a Cabernet Sauvignon-Cabernet Franc. We also likes the Viader "Black Label" an earthy blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah, and DARE, a single vineyard Cabernet Franc. In 2017 Viader received its Napa Green certification.

Women's History Month: Leading Women in Wine: Ambre and Madeleine Delorme, Domaine de la Mordorée

We had the pleasure of meeting Ambre Delorme and her mother, Madeleine, at Domaine de la Mordorée (@domaine_mordoree) during our Tour de France with @kyselaperefils this past January. Located in the heart of AOC Tavel, Domaine de la Mordorée was established in 1986 by Ambre’s grandfather, Francis Delorme, and her father Christophe, starting with 12 acres of vineyard in Tavel.

Today, Domaine de la Mordorée has 143 acres of vineyards in several appellations, including Lirac, Châteauneuf-du-Pape, Condrieu, Côtes- du-Rhone as well as Vins de France. Domaine de la Mordorée has been certified organic since 2013 and Demeter-certified biodynamic since 2020, a commitment that Ambre underscored was at the heart of her father’s philosophy of caring for the land. All harvesting is done by hand; yields are kept low, and intervention remains minimal and only when necessary.

Sadly in 2015, Christophe Delorme passed away unexpectedly at the age of 52. Ambre and her mother are continuing to maintain his vision of being stewards of the land, working with Domaine de la Mordorée’s longtime winemaker Rémy Chauvet.

The winery’s symbol is the woodcock, a game bird. Ambre’s grandfather, Francis, was a hunter. But digging deeper we learned the woodcock has spiritual significance in many cultures and faiths, including resilience and adaptability. Both are necessary when adapting to climate change and adhering to organice and biodynamic principles.

Ambre Delorme joins us on The Connected Table LIVE Wednesday, March 8, 2pm EST "International Women's Day". Tune in @W4CYradio. LIsten anytime post show @iheartradio or your preferred podcast channel. Streamed at theconnectedtable (dot) com.

Women's History Month: Leading Women in Wine: Theodora Lee, Theopolis Vineyard

Take notice of this black-woman-owned winery because the wines are exceptional! Theodora Lee leads a dual life as a San Francisco lawyer and owner of @theopolisvineyards in Mendocino County's Yorkville HIghlands. Lee acquired land to plant vines in 2001. Her first harvest was 2006.

This native Texan was used to farm life growing up back home. She is a force whether driving a tractor on her wine estate or litigating a labor relations case as a senior partner at @littler_law.

And, like the great state she was born and raised in, Theodora's wines are big and bold and command attention. Theopolis Vineyards' estate-grown Petite Sirah and Pinot Noir have received awards and top ratings, earning Lee the moniker, "Theo-patra, Queen of the Vineyards."

Women's History Month: Women Leaders in Wine Prod

Women's History Month: Women Leaders in Wine

Producer, grape, place, vintage, expression: simple affirmations on an origin of wine. Sure. There is nature's hand, the winemaker's skill, and chemistry, vinification and an aging process. In the end, it is about what you enjoy, not what others think.

For Mary Taylor it's about highlighting the true diversity of terroirs. Keep it straightforward; don't overdo it. Mary paid her dues working for big names in the business and then made the leap to launch her own eponymous label. Honest, uncomplicated, quality and value driven, terroir-focused wines, $25 and under/bottle.

Her @MaryTaylorWine White Label is the affirmation. Have you tried?
