Marques de Vargas Rioja Reserva 2016
$54.99
“This dark ruby wine has a bouquet of blackberry, raspberry and salted almond. It offers a mélange of fruit and savory flavors: cherry, pomegranate, roasted nuts, butterscotch and dried kitchen herbs. Solid tannins slowly dissolve, revealing a touch of milk chocolate on the drawn-out finish.” Mike DeSimone, Wine Enthusiast

Coquard Beaujolais Nouveau 2021
From 50-year-old vines and terroir composed of granite, clay and calcareous. Kept a few days on fine lees in stainless steel and concrete vats before bottling. HEV (High Environmental Value) certified.
A rich ruby red with classic aromas of ripe red fruits - raspberry, wild strawberries - plus a hint of blackcurrant with mineral complexity. Fleshy and rounded with gentle tannins, it's best enjoyed at 11-12º with charcuterie, poultry and cheeses. This Beaujolais can be enjoyed young or kept 1 or 2 years maximum
Montezemolo Barolo Monfalleto 2018/19
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.
95 Points, Robert Parker: "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."
94 Points, Wine Spectator: "A plump, cherry-, raspberry- and tar-flavored red, showing accents of mineral, tobacco and eucalyptus, with a swath of solid tannins guarding the finish. Balanced and long, this should come around soon."
94 Points, James Suckling: "Attractive aromas of black cherry with strawberry and hints of vanilla and cedar. Some sandalwood. Medium body. Ultra-fine tannins integrate beautifully into the wine. Plenty of fruit flavors and length. Juicy."
Reverdito Barolo DOCG 2016

Soil: Marl & Limestone
Produced from 25 year old Nebbiolo planted on marl and limestone soils. Grapes are hand harvested and fermentation begins naturally using only indigenous yeasts.
