Hacienda Corralejo was founded in 1755 and became one of the first estates in Mexico to produce tequila for commercial sale. It remains one of the few distilleries outside Jalisco with official rights to produce tequila. Every part of our process still takes place here, from agave harvest to final bottling. Our agave grows in the high-altitude fields of Guanajuanto, there volcanic soil and strong sunlight create a bold, natural flavor. This land is more than our home. It is the reason Corralejo tastes the way it does.
TEMPLETON AMERICAN WHISKEY
Templeton, Iowa was founded in 1882 by German immigrants who brought with them something more valuable than just strong hands and farming know-how. They brought tradition. Back in the old country, rye whiskey was the drink of choice. So when the crops took root in Iowa’s soil, so did the custom of distilling rye.
We built a state-of-the-art distillery right here in Templeton, Iowa — not just to make great whiskey, but to do it the way our town always has: patiently, proudly, and with plenty of good stories to tell.

The myth of La Llorona, “The One Who Cries,” is one of faith and faithlessness, passionate love, and shocking loss. It’s a tale of a beautiful young woman scorned to madness by an unfaithful husband. Her passionate tears, that some say still haunt the mexican landscape have inspired the Tears of La Llorona.
AGED 5 YEARS in a distinctive combination of Sherry, Scotch, and Brandy barrels, it offers a deeply layered flavor profile that reflects both tradition and innovation. Every bottle is a testament to the meticulous care that begins in the volcanic Highlands, where Weber Agave Azul grows, and ends with the thoughtful aging process that gives each batch its unique character.

“WIDELY CONSIDERED ONE OF THE GREATEST EXTRA AÑEJO TEQUILAS EVER MADE, TEARS OF LLORONA IS AN ABSOLUTE MUST-HAVE ADDITION TO ANY TEQUILA COLLECTION.”
German Gonzalez Gorrochotegui, one of the most celebrated working tequileros, was born in Mexico City with strong spirits running through his veins. He is the son of prominent tequilero Guillermo González Diaz Lombardo, who created Chinaco, the first ultra-premium tequila imported into the United States. Fascinated by the family business and eager to follow in his father’s footsteps, Germán chose to pursue a hands-on experience in tequila-making at his family’s distillery.
The story of La Llorona, “The One Who Cries,” is one of faith and faithlessness, passionate love, and shocking loss.
While the tale’s origin has been lost over time and many versions exist across Central and South America, all feature a beautiful young woman scorned to madness by her unfaithful husband. Legend has it that she wanders Mexico’s landscapes crying bitter tears of regret.
It is a story Germán heard many times as a child. And it was Llorona’s passionate tears that inspired Germán’s greatest creation.
In 1928, Juan Torres Casals, second generation of the Torres family, began to make aged brandy from the best white wines of Penedès (Barcelona). As part of the process, he distilled the wine and aged it in oak barrels. The work of Juan Torres was recognised and his brandies started to become synonymous with quality.
For several years, Torres 20 is chosen as the Best Brandy in the World at the International Wine & Spirit Competition. It also receives an award at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition in recognition for almost a century of brandy-making tradition.

Way back in 1733, the Jesuits saw that northern Chile was a ideal for producing liqueurs thanks to its dry, sunny climate. Chilean piscos were presented at international level for the first time at the 1889 Paris world’s fair, while the Chilean government obtained the appellation of origin and exclusive right to produce pisco in 1931.
In 1928, Juan Torres Casals began distilling his wines to make brandy in the Penedès region of Spain. Eighty-four years later, Miguel Torres Chile produced the winery’s first pisco in the Limarí Valley, IV region where the variety of Moscatel Rosada and Moscatel de Alejandría grapes is harvested, perfect for flavoring “El Gobernador”, the name given to our Reserved Pisco.
A. A. BADENHORST
Adi Badenhorst grew up among the vineyards of Groot Constantia, where his grandfather served as general manager for 46 years. As a child, Adi spent his days picking (and occasionally stealing) grapes and made his first wine at the age of thirteen, with renowned winemaker Jean Daneel. Adi studied at Elsenburg, then went to work harvest at Chateau Angelus & Alain Graillot in France, Wither Hills in NZ and locally at Simonsig, Steenberg & Groote Post. He spent nine years as winemaker at the esteemed Stellenbosch estate, Rustenberg. In 2008, Adi and his cousin Hein bought a 148 acre (60 ha) piece of land in the Swartland appellation, and A.A. Badenhorst Family Wines was born. Since its inception, the cousins have remained committed to the tenets of the family estate: to practice biological farming and make natural wines in the traditional manner. Over time they have acquired more vineyards and today farm 395 acres (160 ha). —www.thesortingtable.com

ALEVA
ALEVA is the story of Alejandro Fernández—a man who dedicated his life to wine—and whose legacy lives on through his daughter, Eva. Fernández is recognized as a visionary who helped to revitalize Ribera del Duero and bring its quality wines to the international stage. He was a driving force behind the creation of the Ribera del Duero Designation of Origin (DO) and remains one of Spain’s most celebrated wine producers. Beginning in 1993, Eva and her father worked side by side as a winemaking team until his passing in 2021. Together, they crafted a wine that reflects not only the unique terroir of Ribera del Duero but also their shared passion and commitment.
Aleva Ribera del Duero is produced from 100% Tempranillo, sustainably farmed at nearly 3,000 feet altitude, facing northwest on clay-limestone soil in the province of Burgos. The fruit is hand-harvested, de-stemmed and fermented in stainless steel with natural yeasts. After malolactic fermentation in barrel, the wine ages 27 months in new and used American oak barrels. The high altitude and exposure of the vineyard was chosen deliberately to prioritize finesse and elegance in the wines in preference to weight and power. The 2021 vintage is the first to be sold in the US. www.thesortingtable.com

BROADSIDE
“Brian Terrizzi of Giornata, which focuses on Italian grapes grown in California. This cabernet, from a single vineyard in a cooler, southern part of Paso Robles, is animated by lively acidity and is made in a restrained style that nonetheless is insistently spicy and stony.” - NYT “Appealingly vibrant and fresh for a CA Chard, especially one from this sun-drenched region. Perfect as an aperitif as well as with crab cakes, clams and even lobster.” - Forbes
Broadside started as a reflection of a place – the stunningly beautiful Margarita Vineyard in southern Paso Robles. The vineyard is special. You can feel the presence of the Pacific Ocean here, both in the sudden chill of the maritime air, and the white, fossilized marine shells that pockmark the limestone soils.
As a testimony to the vineyard’s quality, Robert Mondavi planted the site to Cabernet Sauvignon in the mid-1990s. This was to be his flagship Bordeaux vineyard (outside of his Napa To Kalon Vineyard).
Fast forward 10 years after a corporate buyout of the property, some of the best parcels of Cabernet there were up for grabs. Enter Brian Terrizzi, who, thanks to his friendly connection with the vineyard manager, got in early and literally handpicked the Cabernet blocks that he wanted to work with.
Brian made Broadside’s first vintage of Margarita Vineyard Cabernet in 2006, and today he and his viticulturist partner and wife, Stephy Terrizzi, continue to source their Margarita Cab from the same parcels.
Their approach to wine is consistent in the vineyard and the cellar – to craft wines focused on purity and true varietal expression. This means grapes sourced from sustainably farmed vineyards, and minimalist winemaking (native fermentation, minimal racking, pumping, and handling, no additions, and neutral oak). And the winery itself is powered by solar energy and built from green building products. www.winehooligans.com
BURGANS
Burgans is a custom cuvée made for European Cellars by Martin Codax, the largest cooperative in Rías-Baixas. Founded in 1986 by about 50 families with small plots of Albariño around the village of Cambados under the guidance of Luciano Amoedo, a ninth generation grape grower in Rias Baixas, it has grown over the last three decades to include almost 600 families and well over 3000 small parcels of Albariño. All the vineyards are located in the Salnes sub-zone of the appellation – the coolest and most humid of the regions within Rias-Baixas.
In the cellar the wines are fermented and aged in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks to preserve the freshness and bracing acidity that is typical of Albariño grown in the Val do Salnes. Each vintage several experimental fermentations are conducted to understand the minor variations of site, the role of natural yeasts, the length of elevage and the applicability of different fermentation vessels. All of these experiments are used to improve the quality of the wines with each successive vintage. www.europeancellars.com
CALUMET FARM
In 1924, William Monroe Write, a successful entrepreneur and owner of Calumet Baking Powder Company, established a farm in the beautiful Bluegrass pasturelands of Lexington Kentucky. The farm would go on to to win eight (8) Kentucky Derbies and two (2) Triple Crowns. It’s with these high standards that Calumet Farm Bourbon Whiskey embodies the tradition and excellence of Kentucky Bourbon and thoroughbred racing.
Bottled from hand-selected barrels, Calumet has a customary mash bill of corn, rye and malted barley that offers a sweet, flawless finish. Glowing with butterscotch and soft oak, Calumet’s harmonious perfection of wood and caramel is admirably balanced with complex flavors of light brown sugar and soft white pepper. www.calumetbourbon.com
CASAL GARCIA
Casal Garcia was born in 1939, a year in which the vintage was particularly good. Returning by train from the grape harvest in the Douro, the French oenologist Eugène Hélisse decided to interrupt his journey to Oporto after passing the vines of the Quinta da Aveleda, in Penafiel. Dressed in white, and with a straw hat to ward off the heat of the end of summer, he began to walk towards the property’s cellar. He went in, introduced himself and insisted on speaking to the owner, Roberto Guedes. What he had seen minutes before from the window of the train was truly special: the vines were beautifully cared for and the land was divided according to grape variety, everything in French style. This was not a usual procedure in the Vinho Verde region. After a long conversation, Roberto Guedes decided to contract the services of the French oenologist, who had promised him significant improvements in the method of winemaking. The results became evident at the end of the harvest, when Eugène Hélisse took a sample from a wooden barrel and placed it in an old glass bottle. The wine had a beautiful, transparent colour and such a freshness that everyone present was thrilled. Thus, in order to enhance the wine’s appearance, he passed a lace handkerchief over the bottle to clean the dust. And there the lace remained! The name came about by itself, since the wine was produced from one of the vines of Aveleda: that of Casal Garcia. www.casalgarcia.com
CASTELLO D’ALBA
Winemaker Rui Roboredo Madeira was raised in the heartlands of Portugal’s Douro Superior, a remote yet magical corner of the Iberian Peninsula where his family had owned vineyards and olive groves for more than 200 years. Here the scents and smells of the rugged landscapes made a powerful impression on him. After travelling through many of the winemaking regions of the world and learning their winegrowing and winemaking practices, he returned to his family vineyards in the Douro in the late 1990s, convinced of the area’s potential to make world class dry wines.
Rui became one of the pioneers of “new wave” Portuguese winemaking in the early 2000s who, according to Wine Spectator, “set… the pace for the rising quality of the nation’s table wines.” For more than 20 years now, he has been working to coax the best out of indigenous Douro grape varieties such as Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca, Tinta Roriz and Jaen.
Based in the Douro Superior, Castello d’Alba was the first wine that Rui Roboredo Madeira released, in 2000. Today Castello d’Alba continues to combine traditional grape varieties with modern winemaking techniques and has become a leading brand of the Douro. The wines are made from a selection of grapes from top vineyards throughout the Upper Douro and are vinified and matured in Rui Madeira’s winery in São João da Pesqueira. www.ruimadeira.pt
CHAUCER’S MEAD
Chaucer’s Cellars, part of the Bargetto Winery, has been producing Mead (100% fermented honey wine) since the 1960’s. Winery president, Lawrence Bargetto, envisioned creating a wine that paid homage to the libation celebrated in Geoffrey Chaucer’s Canterbury Tales. Chaucer’s Mead is made from fresh honey without the addition of artificial flavorings, concentrates or artificial colorings. The honey for this award-winning Mead is produced from hives throughout the Sierra Nevada Mountains. It is composed of a blend of four types of honey: orange blossom, mountain wildflower, sage and alfalfa.
Serving suggestions: Truly a Mead for all seasons, Chaucer’s can be enjoyed chilled on its own, combined with mulling spices to create a spiced hot or cold beverage, or paired with an IPA to make a blissfully bittersweet beer cocktail. www.chaucerswine.com
COMTE DE MALARTIC
Château Malartic-Lagravière stands on one of Bordeaux’s most prized gravel terraces in the heart of Pessac-Léognan, its vineyards rooted in deep gravel, sand, and clay that give rise to wines of remarkable balance and finesse. The estate’s history stretches back to the late 18th century, when the Malartic family, led by Admiral Count Anne-Joseph Hippolyte de Maurès de Malartic, lent their name and pioneering spirit to the property. Over the centuries, the château earned renown for both red and white wines, becoming one of the few Crus Classés of Graves distinguished in both categories. Since acquiring the estate in 1996, the Bonnie family has carried that legacy forward, revitalizing the vineyards and cellars while championing sustainable, agroecological practices that honor the land’s natural vitality. Their second label, Le Comte de Malartic, captures the same terroir-driven character with an expressive, modern approach, while each bottle of Malartic Lagravière remains a reflection of the family’s enduring commitment to heritage, innovation, and the timeless elegance of Bordeaux.

Our agave grows in the high-altitude fields of Guanajuanto, there volcanic soil and strong sunlight create a bold, natural flavor. This land is more than our home. It is the reason Corralejo tastes the way it does.
CYCLES GLADIATOR
Noted award winning winemaker Adam LaZarre started Cycles Gladiator in 2005. His goal: to use 20 years of Central Coast vineyard experience to produce authentic wines connected to the land. It didn’t hurt that the provocative packaging had an iconic image of a naked red-headed siren on a bicycle to attract as many wine lovers as possible to Cycles Gladiator wines. And it worked. Cycles Gladiator is the most risque wine label to ever get through the TTB (it’s also the most common wine label hung on wine retail shop walls).
Cycles was once one of dozens of bicycle companies during the Belle Epoque that plastered Paris with posters depicting women bearing it all – on bikes. Of course, bike sales flourished prompted by the momentum of the women’s suffrage movement. Bicycles, as Susan B. Anthony praised, literally liberated women from domesticity to work and vote. Over a century later, the iconic image still resonated with wine lovers across the country. The brand was so successful that corporate strategy dictated that LaZarre ramp up production to bolster sales – a win-win scenario for everyone except LaZarre and the wine-loving consumer. He moved on to make real wine elsewhere, and Adam’s Cycles’ story ended there. Until 2013, when wine entrepreneur Dennis Carroll called him. “I want you to rescue the woman on the bike.”
Dennis Carroll had just acquired Cycles under his Wine Hooligans artisan wine brand reinvention project, and he needed to reunite the iconic siren and LaZarre to resurrect Cycles. He agreed without a moment’s hesitation (she is irresistible, after all), and now he’s back at the helm. www.winehooligans.com

DONA MARIA
The Quinta do Carmo estate, home to Dona Maria wines, is situated in the north of the Alentejo region, east of Lisbon. The property and its palace-like home, which dates back to 1718, once belonged to King John V of Portugal, who offered it as a gift to his mistress, Dona Maria. Wine has been produced on this historic estate for more than 150 years. It is currently owned by Júlio Bastos, whose family brought the Alicante Bouschet grape (one of the world’s few teinturier grapes) to Alentejo from the Languedoc a century and a half ago.
Júlio joined forces with Domaines Barons de Rothschild in 1992 to produce Quinta do Carmo wines. After a decade, he parted ways with them in order to preserve his estate’s precious old vines, and in 2003, he established Dona Maria wines. The ancient estate winery was lovingly restored, preserving the 19th century marble lagares where grapes are vinified using the traditional foot treading method. The estate boasts 80 hectares of vines planted in limestone and clay soils, at elevation of 1450 feet.
In 2009, Júlio Bastos was named “Producer of the Year” by Portugal’s prestigious “Revista de Vinhos.” In its short history, Dona Maria has become one of Alentejo’s (and Portugal’s) most iconic wine producers. www.donamaria.pt
FORAL
The Melgaço region is the original home of Alvarinho grape. Melgaco, the most northern region of Portugal, is protected by the surrounding mountains that allow a perfect marriage between rainfall, temperature and the number of hours of sunshine need it for the maturation of the Alvarinho grape. It is here that Quinta do Regueiro Estate produces Foral Alvarinho.
In 1988, the first vineyard was planted on a plot of merely 0.3 hectares. Over the following 10 years, the Estate’s owner, Paulo Rodrigues, continue to plant his vineyards on terraces to increase production making it total 15 hectares. www.mswalker.com

JOSEPH A. MAGNUS
Magnus’ story begins all the way back in the young, war-torn America of the middle nineteenth century. His late father had been a merchant, and Magnus took after him to become a savvy businessman. He soon discovered a niche market for wholesale liquors, and by the time he was twenty-six he had painstakingly built up a liquor empire based out of Cincinnati, Ohio. Magnus prided himself not only on the quality and age of his spirits, but on intelligent and honorable business methods. Excellent whiskey, he recognized, was more than simply a pleasant experience for the drinker – it was a means of promoting good conversation, close fellowship, and “the interchange of kindly deeds and pleasant thoughts.”
Then, nearly a century later, a fortunate discovery was made by one of Magnus’ great-grandsons: a bottle of 122-year-old Murray Hill Club Whiskey, tucked away and seemingly forgotten. The possibility of having an original, unadulterated remnant of Magnus’ famed whiskey was incredibly exciting and also carried a weight of responsibility to do justice to this beautifully aged and preserved bottle. To make sense of this rare find, the family gathered industry veterans to extract a few milliliters from the famed bottle, to taste, test, and reproduce, if possible. These experts were stunned to discover it to be one of the greatest bourbons they had ever tasted.
Today, using the same blending and finishing techniques Joseph Magnus employed over 100 years ago, Magnus Master Blender, Nancy Fraley, finishes 12-year-old bourbon in a triple cask finishing process using Oloroso Sherry, Pedro Ximénez, and Cognac casks. The result is that we have come as close as possible to the original Joseph Magnus Bourbon in that 122-year-old bottle. www.josephmagnus.com

SANTA MARIA LA PALMA
At Santa Maria la Palma, there are no counts, barons or marquises. Instead, there are numerous families of humble winemakers. Fifty years ago, these winemakers were allocated a series of uncultivated plots near the city of Alghero. Rather than a silver spoon, they had strong arms, straight backs, passion and commitment. Together, they tilled the soil and planted the vines. Working side by side, they harvested the grapes and built a cellar complex. These plots were ideal for vines, with great soil, plenty of sun and the sea nearby. They chose the grape types they wanted to grow, combining some well-known names with some lesser-known jewels. Today, 326 growers contribute to the winery. We are the children and grandchildren of those who first tilled those clods of earth, with their own hands, many years ago. Nobility is to be found in hard work and in the fruits of that labor. For this reason, our nobility is in the wines we make. www.santamarialapalma.it

TEARS OF LLORONA
The myth of La Llorona, “The One Who Cries,” is one of faith and faithlessness, passionate love, and shocking loss. It’s a tale of a beautiful young woman scorned to madness by an unfaithful husband. Her passionate tears, that some say still haunt the mexican landscape have inspired the Tears of La Llorona.
AGED 5 YEARS in a distinctive combination of Sherry, Scotch, and Brandy barrels, it offers a deeply layered flavor profile that reflects both tradition and innovation. Every bottle is a testament to the meticulous care that begins in the volcanic Highlands, where Weber Agave Azul grows, and ends with the thoughtful aging process that gives each batch its unique character.
• ADDITIVE-FREE
• PROPRIETARY YEAST
• NATURAL VOLCANIC SPRING WATER
• AGED 5 YEARS IN SHERRY, SCOTCH,AND BRANDY BARRELS
TEARS OF LLORONA WAS BEVTEST’S 2024 TEQUILA OF THE YEAR.
“WIDELY CONSIDERED ONE OF THE GREATEST EXTRA AÑEJO TEQUILAS EVER MADE, TEARS OF LLORONA IS AN ABSOLUTE MUST-HAVE ADDITION TO ANY TEQUILA COLLECTION.”
The BevTest Judging Panel described the Tequila as exhibiting: Aromas of chocolate-covered orange peel, chipotle, and herbs sautéed in an iron skillet. The flavors feature smoky persimmon, red cherry, and medulla dates. A luxuriously aged example of agave that retains the base spirit and exemplifies the cask management that puts this in the pantheon of other finally aged spirits.
German Gonzalez Gorrochotegui, one of the most celebrated working tequileros, was born in Mexico City with strong spirits running through his veins. He is the son of prominent tequilero Guillermo González Diaz Lombardo, who created Chinaco, the first ultra-premium tequila imported into the United States. Fascinated by the family business and eager to follow in his father’s footsteps, Germán chose to pursue a hands-on experience in tequila-making at his family’s distillery.
The story of La Llorona, “The One Who Cries,” is one of faith and faithlessness, passionate love, and shocking loss.
While the tale’s origin has been lost over time and many versions exist across Central and South America, all feature a beautiful young woman scorned to madness by her unfaithful husband. Legend has it that she wanders Mexico’s landscapes crying bitter tears of regret.
It is a story Germán heard many times as a child. And it was Llorona’s passionate tears that inspired Germán’s greatest creation.
THIRD LEAF WINES PORTFOLIO STARS
TOHU
At the foot of snowcapped mountains, in the Awatere Valley of New Zealand, grow the grapes of the Tohu Winery, the world’s first Maori-owned wine company. Launched in 1998, by the indigenous people of Aotearoa, the company is committed to the tradition of kaitiakitanga, or guardianship of the region’s natural resources. This belief drives all production.
The Awatere Valley, where the vineyard is situated, is cooler, drier and windier than the rest of the Marlborough district where most vineyards lie. This causes Tohu grapes to ripen more slowly, resulting in intensely flavorful wines. This sub-climate has been very rewarding for Tohu. The company has earned high praise for its Chardonnay, Riesling, Pinot Noir and Méthode Traditionelle. Prepare yourself for the robust flavors produced by this award-winning Maori winemaker. —www.tohuwines.co.nz
VAN ZELLERS
Van Zellers was officially established as a Port Wine shipper in 1780, by the first generation of Portuguese van Zellers. One of the earliest larger shippers, it was sold to other wine merchants in the middle of the 19th century. It was then reacquired by the van Zeller family in the 1930s, when it was incorporated by Quinta do Noval. Quinta do Noval was then owned by Cristiano’s great-grandfather, Luís de Vasconcellos Porto, whose only daughter and heiress, Cristiano’s grand-mother Rita de Vasconcellos Porto, had recently married his grand-father Cristiano van Zeller, descendant of the founder through the eldest male line. van Zellers & Co. was again sold by the van Zeller family along with Quinta do Noval in 1993, entering a stage of dormancy, with no stocks or commercial activity. In 2006, Cristiano finally reacquired the company and its brands. That same year he started producing the “VZ” and “van Zellers” Douro DOC wines, and in 2009 the van Zeller Ports, thus opening a new chapter in this more than two-hundred-year-old company.
