2018 Brovia - Barolo Villero
The 2018 Barolo Villero is laser sharp and etched with ferrous mineral notes next to wild berry, cherry, cola, campfire ash and grilled rosemary. This elegant, mid-weight wine shows a very long finish and should not disappoint on the cellar-aging front. I...
2018 Bruno Giacosa - Barolo
A fine and pretty Barolo with plenty of strawberry and mushroom character. White truffle, too. It’s medium-to full-bodied and creamy with medium, round tannins. Delicious now and will improve nicely.

2018 Cantina del Pino - Barbaresco Ovello
Showing subtle and sweet fruit, the 2018 Barbaresco Ovello is all about softness and silkiness. Starting off shy, the wine grows in intensity with time in the glass. It shows good structure and stays gripped to the palate thanks to the well-integrated tan...
