Massolino Barolo 2017
$100.00The 2017 Barolo is a gorgeous, harmonious wine. In this vintage, the straight Barolo is a bit lighter than normal, as most wines are, but it is so impeccably balanced.

Fletcher Barbaresco Recta Pete DOCG 2018
$75.00Right from the early days of drinking wines from the Langhe, we always tend to gravitate to Barbaresco. Elegance, drinkability, finesse and value for money.

Crimson in colour with sour cherry and bramble notes. The palate has a subtle, lithe character full of perfumed fruit and is given depth by a […]

Fontodi Chianti Classico 2018
$85.00I always find Fontodi’s Chianti Classico to have impressive amplitude and weight, especially when you consider some of the skinny versions available.
