La Rivolta 2021 Coda Di Volpe Sannio Taburno
93 pts – “Peach, apricot and minerals on the deep, complex nose. Then rich, dense and tactile, with flavors similar to the aromas on the long, ripe, stony finish. Another smashingly good Coda di Volpe wine by La Rivolta, an estate that has a real knack for this variety and a long history of making outstanding wines with it.”
– Ian d’Agata (Vinous)
Reverdito 2021 Langhe Nascetta
Reverdito 2021 Barbera D’Alba
Fatalone 2021 Primitivo Riserva
This wonderfully balanced and mature, authentic primitivo boasts great intensity of tobacco spice, sweet blackberries, chewy tannins and gentle oak underpinned by energetic acidity rarely seen in wines from this part of the world.
In the 7th Edition of the the World Atlas of Wine (Jancis Robinson & Hugh Johnson) Fatalone’s Primitivo Riserva is listed as one of the top 4 wines from Southern Italy and the most notable winery of the DOC Gioia del Colle.
La Rivolta 2019 Aglianico Del Taburno
100% Aglianico. “Outstanding example of what the Aglianico variety can deliver in the right hands. Ripe red cherry, orange peel and sweet herb aromas. Then rich, fresh and perfumed in the mouth, displaying outstanding cut and clarity to the vibrant red berry and blue fruit flavors. Finishes with a dusting of minerals and botanical herbs. Still very young and will age well.”

Collemattoni 2018 Brunello di Montalcino
100% Sangiovese
92 Points Vinous: “Bright, deep red. Red cherry, sweet spices and smoky oak on the enticing nose. Strong soil tones complement musky spice, sweet pipe tobacco, and red fruit flavors. Finishes creamy, tactile and long, with polished tannins. Made from Sangiovese grown in vineyards located in all four of the major quadrants of the Montalcino production zone, which allowed owner Adon Bucci to make a highly balanced wine”.

Montezemolo 2019 Monfalleto Barolo
95 Points, Robert Parker's Wine Advocate (2019 Vintage):
"The 2019 Barolo Monfalletto (made with organic fruit selection from across the vineyards that surround the winery in La Morra) shows grit, density and rich texture. The house style prizes muscle and brawn in this vintage that lends itself handily to these qualities. Pressed cherry and blackberry cede to licorice, cured tobacco and iron ore."
The Nebbiolo that comes off this property is some of the best in La Morra. Even in challenging vintages the Monfalletto terroir yields Nebbiolo that is both powerful and supple. Insiders know that this is one of the best terroirs in Barolo. The 2019 vintage is perhaps its best yet, with stellar ratings across the board - it captures the true essence of the Langhe region.

Elena Italian Gin
Elena Italian gin is a spirit of regional provenance and features native botanicals from the Italian Alps of Piedmont including juniper berries, almonds, Langhe thyme, coriander seeds, black elderflower, Angelica, wild mint, chamomile, cassia bark, and the peel and flowers of organically-grown citrus fruits from the Ligurian hills bordering Piedmont. Juniper dominates the profile here. The palate is silky yet weightless.
