Savoury, woodland and autumnal aromas open slowly, joined by florals, sliced orange and a balsamic lift. The palate is light and fresh, with transparent red fruit, orange rind and dried lemon peel carried by delicate tannins. Woodland spice and a subtle nutty note emerge on the clean, distinctive finish.
Travaglini 2017 Nebolé Metodo Classico Dosaggio Zero
Brilliant straw yellow, with a fine, persistent bead. Pastry, toasted hazelnut and fresh bread crust lead into yellow apple, grapefruit and delicate floral notes. The palate is taut and energetic, its brisk acidity framed by subtle tannin and a distinctly savoury mineral line. Coffee and citrus linger on the long, lively finish, bringing depth without sacrificing precision.
Poderi Cellario È Orange 1L
Cloudy and gently aromatic, with clementine, lime and a touch of honey leading into candied ginger and soft stone fruit.

Easy to enjoy but neatly composed, it works well as an aperitif or with antipasti, grilled fish and simply dressed vegetables.
Ezio Poggio 2018 Archetipo Timorasso
Freshly cut stone fruit and lemon meet a pronounced saline, stony mineral line.

Concentrated without heaviness, it is well suited to roast poultry, firm fish, risotto or aged cheese.
Adriano Basarico 2021 Langhe Sauvignon

Marchesi di Gresy 2016 Barbaresco Martinenga
Wild cherry and redcurrant are lifted by dried rose, orange zest and fine herbs, with forest floor and liquorice adding savoury depth.

Decant before serving with braised beef or truffle dishes.
Mauro Sebaste 2016 Ghè Barolo Riserva DOCG

The palate is focused and measured rather than showy, balancing floral lift with fine savoury depth. Structured for the table or cellar, it finishes dry, composed and quietly persistent.
Azelia 2017 Barolo Margheria
Scorched earth opens the nose before toasted hazelnut, forest floor, dried herbs and a faint floral note emerge.

Tightly knit, fine-grained tannins provide structure, while a saline edge lengthens the finish and rewards patient cellaring.
Cellario E! Grino Grignolino Piedmont 1 L
Pale ruby and lightly framed, with bright red fruit, gentle spice and a quiet earthy-mineral note.

Bottled unfiltered, it works equally well lightly cool as an aperitif or alongside a relaxed meal.
Santa Vittoria 2017 Barolo DOCG
Clear garnet with a brick-toned rim, opening on dried cherry, rose petal and tar, followed by leather, sweet tobacco, forest floor and anise.

Polished and versatile, it suits grilled sausage, tomato-based pasta or slowly braised meat.
Cavallotto 2019 Barolo Bricco Boschis
Earthy and smoky at first, opening into dark cherry, blood orange and dried fruit. Firm acidity and tightly knit tannins give the palate a powerful, classical frame, while concentrated fruit carries through the middle and into a focused, persistent finish. Still youthful and structured, this will reward decanting or further cellar time. Serve with braised beef, game, truffle dishes or aged cheese.
Giordano Lombardo 2020 Sasso Alto Barbera
Tangy blueberry, cherry and kirsch give this medium-bodied red a bright, generous core. The fruit stays vivid through the palate, supported by lively acidity and an easy, approachable texture.
