Marchesi di Barolo Barolo DOCG 2019
Marchesi di Barolo · Marchesi di Barolo
The Marchesi di Barolo estate is where Barolo wine was born. In the 1840s, Marchesa Giulia Falletti commissioned the first dry Nebbiolo wines from these vineyards.
Kit Aromas
Nose
Dried rose petals and violets rise above a bed of sour cherry, tar, and cedar, with hints of dried herbs and a truffle-like earthiness that deepens with air.
Palate
Ethereal yet powerful, with bright cherry and raspberry fruit framed by firm, fine-grained tannins, rose petal, and a savory tar note that grounds the elegance.
Finish
Remarkably long, with cherry, rose, and cedar persisting through waves of tannin that promise decades of development.

Ferrer Bobet Priorat Vinyes Velles 2018
Ferrer Bobet
Ferrer Bobet's old-vine Priorat bottling captures the essence of warmth radiating from ancient llicorella slate — a wine that speaks before you find the words. This 2018 has reached a gorgeous drinking window where concentration meets elegance, offering serious depth at a price that undercuts many of its Priorat peers. A bottle built for contemplation beside a low fire.
Bourgogne Rouge, Domaine de Montille
Domaine de Montille
Domaine de Montille's Bourgogne Rouge is a masterclass in what restraint can achieve at the regional level — no excess, no artifice, just transparent Pinot Noir from one of Burgundy's most principled estates. It embodies the theme of clarity through constraint: a wine that finds its beauty in what it withholds rather than what it offers. An essential benchmark for understanding why less, in Burgundy, is always more.
Nerello Mascalese Vigne Vecchie
Calabretta
Calabretta's old-vine Nerello Mascalese is a masterclass in how air and altitude sculpt a wine—vineyards perched high on Etna's slopes channel wind and volcanic breath into the glass. This is traditional Etna winemaking at its most soulful: no shortcuts, no polish, just pure terroir captured by a family that has farmed the same contrada for generations. A hauntingly beautiful wine that rewards patience and contemplation.
Perrin Cotes du Rhone Reserve Rouge 2022
Perrin
The Perrin family's Réserve Rouge remains one of the Rhône's most reliable everyday reds, delivering genuine terroir character at a fraction of the cost of their Châteauneuf-du-Pape holdings. It captures the warmth of a late November harvest—generous, grounding, and quietly soulful. A wine that pairs as well with weeknight suppers as it does with the season's final fireside gatherings.
