  • Marcarini Barolo Chinato 375ml

    Marcarini Barolo Chinato 375ml

    Aged for a long time in oak barrels, this aromatic wine becomes a low-alcohol "elixir," amber-colored and with ruby-red reflections. Its spicy, intense and persistent nose and the bittersweet taste of the China bark make it a lovely and inviting wine. A rare specialty for connoisseurs!

    Marchesi Di Barolo Cannubi Docg

    This wine is garnet-red in color with ruby reflections. Its intense nose has distinct traces of roses, vanilla, licorice, spices, toasted oak and a gentle scent of absinth. The flavor is full and elegant, good-bodied and austere with remarkably elegant tannins.

  • Marco Bonfante Barolo

    Marco Bonfante Barolo

    An intense ruby-red colour with tenous, brigth garnet reflections. It presents certain delicate, spicy aromas, interesting in theire hints of weet leaves and soil, accompanied by an elegant suggestion of violet and ripe plums. The first impact of this wine is inviting, its tannic vein sturdy, well harmonised by its structure and the fresh, final touch of liquirice. We would recommend that this wine be served with very tasty food such as: roasts and braised red meats and particulary, as is the custom in Piedmont, the traditional game salmi: hare, pheasant and boar, served with large helpings of polenta.

  • Maretti Barolo

    Maretti Barolo

    'Traditional style, more or less, rich in dark cherry, with sage, mint, and new leather, and some aniseed and cocoa. Full-bodied, slightly meaty and rustic, but in a good way, ripe suede-like tannin, earthy, freshness with power, and a mesh of dry tannin and dried herb laced dark fruit on a finish of solid length. It’s already quite approachable, but should do well over the medium term. Value is excellent.' - 93 points. Gary Walsh, The Wine Front

  • Masi Amarone Costasera

    Masi Amarone Costasera

    Corvina, Rondinella, Molinara.

    Proud, majestic, complex and exuberant: this is Masi's gentle giant. A benchmark for the Amarone category, which, together with Barolo and Brunello, makes up the aristocracy of the Italian wine world.

    The product of Masi's unrivalled expertise in the appassimento technique, whereby traditional grapes for the Valpolicella Classica area - Corvina, Rondinella and Molinara - are laid out on bamboo racks to concentrate their aromas during the winter months.

    Very dark ruby redin colour, on the nose baked fruit, plums and cherries, finishing with fruity tastes, with hints of coffee and cocoa. Very well balanced.

    Excellent as an after-dinner wine, or to go with red meat, game, quails and richly flavoured dishes. Very good with well-aged cheeses, such as parmesan, pecorino and gorgonzola.
