Cantina D’Arcy Langhe Nebbiolo 2020
$105.00Myers’ drop-dead gorgeous Langhe bottling is based on two 30-plus-year-old parcels of Nebbiolo rooted at the foot of Barbaresco’s famous Ronchi Cru. This celebrated, limestone-rich site runs along the southern belt of the appellation, near the town of Barbaresco itself. The deeper soils of the vineyard’s lower climbs gives a more open style of wine—exactly […]

Massolino Barolo 2019
$110.00“The 2019 Barolo is a very serious wine. Readers looking for an easygoing, entry-level Barolo will not find that here. Bright and sizzling with tannin, the 2019 is going to need at least a few years to fully come together. Crushed rocks, red/purplish fruit and dried flowers emerge with some coaxing, but this is really […]

La Torre Brunello di Montalcino 2017
$130.00Black cherry, red cherry, plum, lavender, cassis, dried herbs, lavender wood, tobacco and leather. Sensuous and expressive, full bodied, but with a lightness of touch that makes you forget about its tannic presence. The carry is very long and here the tannins kick in – robust and burley, carried by fine acidity. Earthy elements of […]

Cascina delle Rose Mixed Pack
$549.00 Per case of 6A few words from Ned Goodwin MW on the vintages: “2019 is the first of a triumvirate of very good vintages, following the forward, frisky and imminently approachable 2018’s. To make recent comparisons, 2019 is dense of extract with a bulwark of firm, marked tannins. It is frequently compared to 2013, by others to 2016. […]

Luciano Sandrone Barolo Aleste 2017
$295.00Considering some of the casks spent up to 2 months on skins, this is remarkably pure with extremely fine tannins. Compelling aromas of cassis, tar, cherry cola, leather polish, nutmeg, liquorice, cigar box, roses, cherry and violet. Tighter than the Le Vigne, and I prefer this in 2017, although usually Le Vigne gets my nod. […]

Cascina delle Rose Barbaresco ‘Rio Sordo’ 2018
$145.00Another classic Nebbiolo profile, but perhaps more animal, elemental and masculine. Fresh leather, rose, sandalwood, Port wine tobacco, aniseed, blackcurrant, blueberry and dark cherry. Rich and deep, but with no loss of elegance or purity. Interwoven red, blue and dark fruits, sweet balsamic, juicy, not so much as linear, but nevertheless precise, expansive and palate […]

La Torre Brunello di Montalcino Riserva 2016
$225.00Discreet nose, almost closed, but with plenty of vigorous swirling, a stunning aromatic tapestry emerges. Blood plum, red cherry, blueberry, cocoa, lavender, blood orange, dried flowers, cigar, sandalwood and polished leather. Texturally complex. Sleek, puckering and tannic, and it’s this combination that sets Brunello apart from other grapes. Very fine and elemental, expansive across the […]
