Nebbiolo
2018 Bruno Giacosa - Barolo
A fine and pretty Barolo with plenty of strawberry and mushroom character. White truffle, too. It’s medium-to full-bodied and creamy with medium, round tannins. Delicious now and will improve nicely.
2020 Burlotto - Barolo
The Comm. G.B. Burlotto 2020 Barolo has delicate floral aromas with almond blossom and red fruits. To the palate, the wine shows a very tight and compact texture, tonic and polished, with lingering lavender bud, some grilled herb, sour cherry, tart flavor...

2019 Ca del Baio - Barbaresco Pora

2023 Cantina del Pino - Langhe Nebbiolo (750ML)

Lean in appearance with light ruby transparency, the Cantina del Pino 2020 Barbaresco Albesani (with 3,000 bottles created) shows savory notes on the bouquet with fresh berry fruit enhanced by smoke, tar and dark licorice. The wine also offers a more pron...
