CA DEL BAIO Barbaresco Cru Asili For four generations, the Grasso family has quietly made a name for themselves in the Barbaresco region, stretching back to the late 1800s when Giuseppe Grasso moved from Calosso in the Asti region to Treiso. The Barbaresco Cru Asili displays an intense aroma, with fruity perfumes of morello cherry and floral violet. The palate imparts spicy notes of tar, black pepper, and licorice and reveals a velvety, rich texture. Iron, herbs and tobacco add depth to the lingering finish.

ANTONIOTTI ODILIO, Bramaterra, Piemonte, Italy Today Odilio and his son Mattia work the vines, yet the Antoniotti family have been making wine in Casa del Bosco (west of Milan) in northern Piemonte for generations. The Antoniotti Bramaterra Nebbiolo blend is a fresh and attractive Piemonte red. With aromas of predominantly red fruits, herbs and spicy notes on the nose, this wine has a moreish mouth-coating quality with delicate tannins and a lengthy finish. An elegant and juicy wine of immense quality, especially at such a great price.

GAJA Sito Moresco, Langhe Fruit is sourced predominantly from Pajorè in Treiso and in Serralunga, with eastern and western exposure and rich soils laden with limestone. Fermented and aged in stainless steel tanks and oak casks, the Sito Moresco combines the complexity of Nebbiolo with the roundness of Barbera and the body of Merlot. Elegant, fruity and balanced, the wine has a refined bouquet of small red fruits with smooth tannins and a lingering finish.

Orlando Abrigo Rongalio Riserva Barbaresco DOCG A reserve wine, only produced in the best vintages using grapes from the oldest vines of the Meruzzano vineyard. Deep, ruby red colour with a complex and highly elegant bouquet revealing layers of violets, plums, cherries, and a touch of cinnamon. Sophisticated and harmonious with an intense lingering finish. The fruit (100% Nebbiolo) for this Riserva is sourced from Rongalio, a highly-prized vineyard in the Meruzzano Me. GA (Italian equivalent of a French Cru), with vines between 35 and 40 years old. The soil is very rich in microelements such as iron and zinc, and is frequently streaked with veins of lime and clay, steeping the wine in unquestionable personality and a great propensity for ageing. Since the 2011 vintage, Barbaresco Rongalio has been sold as a Riserva.
