Boasso Barolo Gabutti 2018
$55.00Add to cartA rich Nebbiolo from one of Barolo’s most delicious crus where the fruit is picked, pressed and fermented before aging in new oak for three years. This is a wine that is never filtered and is left to age further in bottle before release where the flavors have time to harmonize. Boasso is a smaller producer and this wine offers a great value in Barolo that will develop more complexity with age.

Brezza Barolo Cannubi 2020
$93.00Add to cartBrezza, a very traditional Barolo maker, has been on the up-and-up for the past few years as drinkers swing back to expressiveness and terroir over simple power. The Cannubi is fantastic. Crushed woodsy fruit, silky texture, and flowers are offset by orange zest and herbs.

Cantina Sociale di Gattinara Gattinara 2017
$72.00Add to cartEstablished in 1908, Cantina Sociale di Gattinara is a local cooperative of growers, embodying a rich tradition in Piedmont that supports family farms in their growth, stability, and stewardship. In the Land of Nebbiolo, Gattinara often takes a back seat to the region’s giants, but do not overlook this elegant red. Bright red fruit command the palate with floral, acacia, and cedar notes; the tannins are chewy yet refined, and the finish is contemplative.

Cappellano Barolo Otin Fiorin Pie Rupestris 2018 1.5L

Cappellano Barolo Otin Fiorin Pie Rupestris 2019
$275.00Add to cartThis wine is everything you want Cappellano to be: it’s earthy and complex, mineral and layered, and almost monolithic. We love this wine, but if you are patient enough to age it, it will reward you even more with gorgeous tertiary notes of truffle and forest floor that jump out of the glass.

Casanova di Neri Brunello di Montalcino 2019
$109.00Add to cartThis is a great entry into the 2019 vintage that can be enjoyed now, but will also be great laid down for a few years. It has the heft that some seek, but there’s plenty of nuance that comes from their deft balance between the wildness of the grapes and the slickness of the cellar hand.

Cascina Luisin Barbera d’Alba Maggiur 2019
$27.00Add to cartWhat a delicious wine from a very fun producer.

Cascina Penna-Currado Barbera d’Alba Carra 2022
$59.00Add to cartCascina Penna-Currado is the new and exciting project from the Penna-Currado Vietti family, spearheaded by Elena Penna, Luca Currado Vietti and their kids, Michele and Giulia. After running one of the Piedmont’s most respected wineries (see the last names), the family decided to focus on an artisanal expression of what the Piedmont can provide.
This is a focused and interesting Barbera with a core of pretty dark fruits and good tension. Luca is an incredible winemaker and we look forward to seeing how all of his wines develop.

Cosimo Taurino Notarpanaro Rosso 2013
$25.00Add to cartThis wine is an easy recommendation and hopped right out the gates as a staff favorite (especially for Will) showing that no matter the price point you can find wines with depth and soul.
Hailing from Lecce in Puglia (the heel of the Italian boot) where most wine is made in bulk to be drunk out of a jug comes a wine that’s rustic and earthy while still being classic and elegant. This is Grand Cru Puglia, a diamond in the rough?
Cosimo Taurino takes his wines seriously, holding them back for years to tame the tannins and allow them to harmonize in the bottle. This current release is a 2012!

Dal Forno Romano Amarone Monte Lodoletta 2017 750ml
$504.00Add to cartThis is a wine that will reward patience. Like most Amarone’s the Dal Forno is brooding, brimming with dark cherries and violets that play off the spice, earth, and coffee notes that add complexity. This balance between the rich acidity, the savory umami, and the fresh fruit leave this looking like a linebacker dancing a ballet. It’s graceful.

DeForville Nebbiolo d’Alba 2022
$27.00Add to cartThis wine is definitely a store favorite! A great entry level Nebbiolo that is perfect for pairing with dinner.

Gaja Costa Russi
$935.00Add to cartThis is one of the most epic Italian wines there is. If you really want the inside scoop ask David about his time in the Piedmont.

Giacomo Conterno Barbera d’Alba Vigna Francia 2021 Magnum
$225.00Add to cartThis is a Barbera (which often plays second fiddle in the Piedmont) from one of the regions greatest producers. The Barbera has great fruit but lighter tannins than their Nebbiolos, but given its pedigree it still has a definite heft. We think this is a true value wine to taste one of the greats. And it’s in a magnum!

Grifalco Aglianico del Vulture Gricos 2022
$29.00Add to cartAfter a stint in Tuscany the couple behind Grifalco decided to decamp for a new project somewhere else in Italy. In Basilicata they found terroir and untapped potential that they were excited to explore, particularly in the shadow of the Vulture volcano where stellar Aglianico grows. This wine is their entry level bottling and it is a delightful look at what the grape can be.
