Prapian Prosecco Col De L’utia Brut
$37.99CERTIFIED ORGANIC
Touches of almond and orange blossom. Mandarin orange peel, and sourdough bread add depth. The finish is bracing, ending in a blaze of yuzu citrus. A focused, concentrated, and complex sparkler, well-made and organic to boot.
Reverdito Barolo Ascheri 2016
$129.99Vineyard: La Morra
Production: 4,000 bottles
Soil: Marl
Barolo produced here is best described as “warm-hearted”. Michele’s Barolo Ascheri comes from the classic chalky soils of La Morra about 250 meters up the steep hillside, inter-planted with several types of grasses and beans to aid biodiversity and soil structure. The resulting wine has an enticing nose of flowers, ripe strawberries and dark cherries, and a good mouthful of plummy ripe elegant fruit. This deceptively mid-weight Barolo has a ton to offer.
Rivolta Coda Di Volpe Sannio Taburno 2017
$37.9993 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 Langhe Nascetta 2016
