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.

Planted by Silvano Reverdito in 1967, the year of his marriage, the Bricco Cogni vineyard is located in the comune of La Morra. It produces extremely fine and elegant Barolo Docg wines.

The Vada Emilio Nebbiolo Langhe L'Erth DOC 2017 is a stunning example of the renowned grape varietal from Piedmont, Italy. With a deep ruby hue, this wine is visually striking and immediately entices the senses. On the nose, aromas of dark cherry, blackberry, and dried herbs mingle with hints of leather and tobacco, showcasing the complexity of the Nebbiolo grape. On the palate, bold tannins give way to a well-balanced acidity, with flavours of ripe red fruit, earthy undertones, and a touch of spice. The 2017 vintage has allowed this wine to reach its peak, making it a delight to drink now or to cellar for future enjoyment. Vada Emilio's expertise in winemaking is evident in every sip, making this Nebbiolo a true masterpiece.
