Trediberri Barolo DOCG 2019
Trediberri
Trediberri represents a new generation of Barolo — respectful of tradition but willing to bottle with less extraction and shorter maceration, letting the vintage and vineyard define the wine. The 2019 is precise, energetic, and remarkably accessible for young Barolo without sacrificing any aging potential.
Kit Aromas
Nose
Lifted rose petal and tar — classic Barolo. Ripe cherry and a dusting of dried herbs follow, with a mineral, chalky undertone. There's a suggestion of cedar and dried orange peel that adds intrigue.
Palate
Elegant rather than massive, with bright cherry fruit wrapped in firm but fine-grained tannins. A streak of violet and earthy minerality runs through the mid-palate. The oak is restrained, allowing the Nebbiolo to speak clearly. Taut and structured but not austere.
Finish
Long and persistent, with cherry, rose, and a lingering mineral grip that invites another sip.

Handmade tajarin pasta with white truffle butter
Founded in 2009 by Nicola Oberto and Federico Quarello, Trediberri farms just three hectares in La Morra, vinifying with large Slavonian oak botti and a light hand that lets the Berri vineyard's calcareous clay soils shape every bottle.

Domaine de l'Hortus Grande Cuvée Pic Saint-Loup 2020
Domaine de l'Hortus
Domaine de l'Hortus Grande Cuvée is a masterful expression of Pic Saint-Loup — a region where the altitude and dramatic temperature swings between day and night produce wines of remarkable freshness despite the Mediterranean heat. This is serious Languedoc red at a fraction of Rhône Valley prices.
Domaine de la Côte Pinot Noir Estates 2021
Domaine de la Côte
Rajat Parr and Sashi Moorman's estate-wide blend offers a window into their meticulous Sta. Rita Hills farming without the single-vineyard price tag. It drinks like Burgundy in its restraint and transparency, proving that California Pinot Noir can whisper rather than shout.
Domaine de la Bouïssière Gigondas Les Olivets 2021
Domaine de la Bouïssière
The Faravel family farms old-vine Grenache and Mourvèdre on Gigondas's rocky Dentelles de Montmirail slopes, where low yields and extreme diurnal temperature swings build concentration naturally. Les Olivets is their flagship — a wine of real substance that never sacrifices drinkability for power. Give it thirty minutes in a decanter and it opens beautifully.
Pietradolce Etna Rosso DOC 2021
Pietradolce
Pietradolce farms some of the highest vineyards on Etna's north slope, and this entry-level Rosso punches well above its price. Nerello Mascalese shows its best here — transparent, mineral-driven, alive with tension. It's a red wine that feels like it was drawn from the rock itself.
