Paolo Bea Cerrete 2017
$199.00Add to cartPaolo Bea is a singular winemaker who commands an amazing amount of respect from wine drinkers who bristled at the hyper-modernization that was happening around the world in the 90s and 2000s. His wines are deeply traditional. This wine comes from the vineyards at the highest altitude in Montefalco, and the resulting wine is intense in nearly every aspect. Despite being so intense it still has a beautiful lift and will get better and better with age.

Paolo Bea Pagliaro 2019
$129.00Add to cartPaolo Bea captures the pastoral beauty of Umbria in his iconoclastic wines.
With over 500 years of experience farming in Montefalco, the Bea family has deep generationally driven insight into the region. A commitment to organic agriculture (fused with certain biodynamic practices) set Paolo apart from his contemporaries in the 70s and 80s. Today his son Giampiero holds the reins and his wines are wildly regarded as some of the most exciting and challenging wines to come out of italy. The power and depth of this Sagrantino are monolithic in proportions. Delicious, brooding, dark and ageworthy.
