Bright floral and citrus tones. Sweet red purplish berry fruit, blood orange, spice, menthol rose petal and lavender are some of the many notes that flesh out in this super-expressive Barbaresco. Aromatically lifted, dense on the palate and also very structured.

Michele Chiarlo was founded in 1956 by the sole and present owners, Michele and Giuseppina Chiarlo. Son of over seven generations of esteemed wine growers, Michele is today one of the most respected producers of the fine wines of Piedmont and a leading figure in its viticultural industry. Asili is a relatively new cru within the Barbaresco DOCG. It is said that the blue-grey calcareous marl and clay here contribute to the complexity of the wines here, along with their delicate and refined characters. Delicately perfumed, with characters of pure red fruits and gently aromatic, floral notes, supported by fine spices. Silky tannins frame a core of red berry fruits. Extremely charming, elegant and approachable.

Giovanni Rosso's Serralunga d'Alba Barolo represents the classic heart of this historic commune. Davide Rosso, who took over from his father Giovanni in the 1990s, works with old-vine Nebbiolo from key Serralunga sites, crafting wines that speak clearly of place. Fermentation occurs in concrete, with long macerations to build depth and structure, followed by extended maturation in large, neutral French oak botti to preserve purity and nuance. Each vintage shows the hallmarks of Serralunga, perfumed red cherry and rose, layered with tobacco, earth and iron. The palate combines freshness and tension with fine, persistent tannins that promise graceful ageing. It is both an introduction to and an authentic expression of one of Barolo's most powerful terroirs. A wine built for the cellar but compelling even in youth, the Giovanni Rosso Serralunga d'Alba Barolo offers pedigree and value in equal measure.

Part of the Badarina MGA (Menzione Geografica Aggiuntiva, or Cru) in the commune of Serralunga d’Alba, the vineyard is characterised by its considerable altitude, which brings a touch of freshness to the Barolos produced from its grapes. Barolo Badarina Docg from the Reverdito winery is vinified exclusively in wooden casks. Garnet red with orange highlights. Intense, complex bouquet with spicy and fruity notes. Full-bodied and elegant on the palate.

The Segni Di Langa Barolo DOCG 2018 is a true masterpiece from the Piedmont region of Italy. This vintage showcases the signature characteristics of the Barolo varietal, boasting a deep ruby red hue with garnet reflections. On the nose, aromas of ripe cherries, plums, and a hint of truffle dance elegantly with notes of violet and tobacco. On the palate, this wine is full-bodied and structured, with velvety tannins and a long, lingering finish. The 2018 vintage is a testament to the skill and expertise of Segni di Langa, with its well-balanced acidity and intense flavor profile. This Barolo pairs beautifully with hearty dishes such as braised beef or aged cheeses. Decanting is recommended to fully appreciate the complexity of this exceptional wine. A true delight for any wine connoisseur.

Boroli Barolo Villero is a single-cru Barolo from one of Castiglione Falletto’s most prized south and south-west facing vineyards, a historic MGA renowned for giving Nebbiolo both depth and line. The Boroli family farm clay-limestone soils with good water-holding capacity here, harvesting by hand around mid-October and dividing the site into micro-parcels so that each block and ripeness zone can be vinified and aged separately before a final blend. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel with long submerged-cap maceration of up to 30 days, followed by at least 18 months in a mix of barriques and larger oak before extended time in bottle, building structure while keeping tannins smooth. In the glass, Villero typically shows bright ruby to garnet colour, persistent aromas of ripe red fruits, plum and cherry with floral and spicy notes, and a succulent, full-bodied palate with sweet, fine tannins and a deep, long finish, built to reveal its full potential over many years in the cellar.
