2016 Giacosa - Barbaresco Riserva Asili DOUBLE MAGNUM (3L)
Packaged in its distinctive red label, the 2016 Barbaresco Riserva Asili is a rich and profound wine with incredible depth and dimension. Bruna Giacosa skipped over the 2015 vintage because she felt that the fruit was not poised for long aging. From the 2...
2019 Giacosa - Barbaresco Asili
Sweet and succulent aromas of tangerines, freshly cut ripe strawberries, cherries and flowers follow through to a full-bodied palate with sleek and dense tannins that run the length of the wine and then fan out into a dense, vivid finish of fruit. It’s ch...
2023 Giovanni Almondo - Langhe Nebbiolo DOC (750ml)
Its denomination is Langhe Nebbiolo, its spirit is that of Roero Nebbiolo.
It was born of our youngest Nebbiolo vines, 20 years of age. It takes inspiration from the traditional Roero Nebbiolino, the most authentic and honest expression of the Nebbiolo grown from the sands of Roero, the one that old people recognized as the true Roero Nebbiolo. This is a light-hearted and graceful wine. On the nose, you immediately understand the difference compared to structured and intense Nebbiolo wines, with its gentle fruity and floral fragrance, a slightly spicy finish as well as overtones of raspberries, blackberries, currants, violets and wild roses.
On the palate, it is dry, harmonious, velvety, with touches of freshness and the right amount of tannin. Within the traditional culture of Roero, this was an all-round wine and this great versatility does show.

2021 Grasso, Elio - Barbera d'Alba Vigna Martina
Powerful and concentrated, featuring blackberry, plum, fruitcake and iron flavors. Exuberant and resonant on the long, iron- and spice-tinged finish. Think salumi and cheeses.
2018 Grasso, Elio - Barolo Gavarini Chiniera
The Gavarini Chiniera vineyard is shaped like an amphitheater with thick forests at the back (which protects from cold air currents) and sandy chalk soil at 380 meters in elevation. This is a special site, and the Elio Grasso 2018 Barolo Gavarini Chiniera...
2018 Grasso, Elio - Barolo Casa Mate Ginestra
From a vineyard located across from Gavarini Chiniera, this is a slightly more robust and concentrated wine. The 2018 Barolo Ginestra Casa Maté sources its fruit from a position at a slightly lower elevation with a bigger component of clay in the soils. ...
2019 Grasso, Elio - Barolo Gavarini Chiniera
With vines adjacent to forests on white chalky soils, the Elio Grasso 2019 Barolo Gavarini Chiniera is a luminous and very beautiful wine. Vintner Gianluca Grasso called this "the helicopter vintage" because he actually rented a helicopter to fly over the...
