2020 in review: the individuals behind the scene s

2020 in review: the individuals behind the scene share with you their highlights of last year.

«One of my most rewarding memories in this very stressful year was meeting with new people who ended up bringing so much to my professional life but also my personal life. Dan Bilefsky from the NYT is one of them, Elyse Lambert, the Master Sommelier from Quebec and her friends, loyal club members, sommeliers from Vancouver: Andrew Forsyth, Maude Renaud Brisson, Leagh Barkley, Adriano Cartuliares (Victoria), and so many more. They recognize what we do, support it, and promote it. I am slowly realizing that as a team and myself included in that team, we are incredible! I am insisting that as a team, in this very stressful time, we all supported each other through the ups and downs.» - Severine Pinte, Winemaker & Viticulturist

«The unwavering support of some of our best customers and friends. Thank you so much for the phone calls and emails. We are so grateful for your well-wishes and support. Thank you for keeping us in your glass until our inevitable reunion in the tasting room.» - Wade Martin, LaStella Tasting room manager

«My highlight this year is not only seeing how great the fruit was when we processed everything this harvest, but how well everything is maturing in the barrel. 2020 is going to be an exceptional vintage and I think we all need something exciting to look forward to.» - Dave Marchand, Assistant Winemaker

«I am very proud of our entire nation for showing kindness, patience and support during the most unusual and scary time in my lifetime. We came together, we worked with each other and supported each other with a level of humanity and resiliency that is truly admirable. Pat yourself and those around you on the back. We did it and as of now, the light at the end of the tunnel is visible. In the next few months, with the arrival of vaccines and better weather, we should be all in a much better shape😊» - Rasoul Salehi, Diretor of Sales & Marketing,

Happy New Years Eve! Cheers to the end of 2020 as

Vinica celebrates Rasoul Salehi 🥂

Rasoul Salehi @rasoulak was born and raised in Tehran, Iran in a family of serious foodies and tea lovers. The Iran-Iraq war during his childhood meant all meals were homemade and prepped from scratch. His favourite activities, aside being a helper in the kitchen, were to help Grandma shock fava beans, peel citrus fruit for marmalades, plant edible flowers and veggies, and harvest them. With regular family trips to Europe for his father’s job, Rasoul became exposed to western gastronomy, as well as beer and wine.

He attended university (philosophy of technology @simonfraseru ) in Canada, studying toward his goal working in Canadian academia. Little did Rasoul know that his passion for wine will take over, and shake his world. Blessed with a photographic memory and speed reading, Rasoul would polish off a big wine book or two a week. He quickly accumulated a vast knowledge of wine and the wine business. He gained further wine knowledge on online forums and writers like Robert Parker’s @mark_squires_wine , Wine berserkers and others… his foot has stayed on the gas pedal since those early years and there is no slowing him down for his quest to gain more nuanced understanding of all things winegrowing.

Rasoul has been with the highly respected Le Vieux Pin @levieuxpin and sister winery Lastella @lastellawinery since almost the inception. Last year he started Substrat Wine Company @substratwineco , a passion-based side hustle of bringing in lesser-known wines of Piedmont, German Pinot Noirs, Austrian wines from the coolest zone in Wachau, Portugese wines from Bairada, Azores islands and more…

Thank you Michael Godel (WineAlign) for this great

Thank you Michael Godel (WineAlign) for this great review of our 2019 Vivace Pinot Grigio. Few pairings ideas: oysters, risotto, creamy white sauce pasta with shrimp, carbonara, linguine alla vongole...
Last call to get some ;)

"A wine should live up to its name and La Stella's Vivace succeeds. In the great sea of pinot grigio ubiquity there can be some
with a distinct energy that roll across the palate in waves. This is such a heart breaker, a "lively" PG that seems so much bigger and of more alcohol volume than it really is. The density of fruit and the balanced relationship with a thickness of acidity is how the breakers are developed, far out to sea and only realized just as they approach the shore. This will tumble over you with sudden haste and find you swimming in its juiciness, albeit a metallic oneand as with the best of northeastern Italy, unctuous
to an Adriatic degree. Great fruit and winemaking heed are what make this happen.

Drink 2020-2023.

Tasted September 2020.
Value Rating: 4/5 91 points"

They made it; harvest 2020 is done!
Now, it's time to say goodbye to our fabulous team of hard workers. We are so fortunate to work with these farmers year after year.

Luis, Salvador, Serafin, Roberto, Marcos, Eduardo, Jeronimo and Juan, thank you for your fantastic work this summer. We couldn't have done it without your incredible help. Take care of yourself and your loved ones this winter, and we will be delighted to have you back in March 2021.

Ha llegado el momento de despedirnos de nuestro fabuloso equipo de agricultores. Somos realmente afortunados de poder trabajar año tras año con estos incansables trabajadores.
