2019 Azelia Barolo Bricco Fiasco
Bricco Fiasco is a proprietary name for a vineyard in Castiglione Falletto with 85 year old vines. Luigi Scavino says, "These vines represent a unique heritage for our family." The 2019 Barolo Bricco Fiasco (with 5,800 bottles released) is a little shy in...
2019 Azelia - Barolo Margheria
Azelia makes three wines with fruit from Serralunga d'Alba, including San Rocco, Cerretta and this wine. There is also a Riserva from Bricco Voghera. The 2019 Barolo Margheria comes from a southwest facing slope opposite the Perno Vineyard. The site has v...
2019 Azelia - Barolo Cerretta
Cerretta is one of my favorite sites in Serralunga d'Alba because it consists of vines wrapped around a hilltop with various exposures. For that reason, Cerretta wines can vary widely from producer to producer. The Azelia 2019 Barolo Cerretta has dark fru...
2017 Azelia - Barolo Cerretta

2015 Barale, Fratelli - Barolo Cannubi
The Barale Fratelli 2015 Barolo Cannubi offers a powerful nose with a hint more alcoholic power (measured at 14.5%) that reminds us of the warm and sunny growing conditions experienced in this vintage. There is a sweet note to the fruit that comes forward...

2015 Boscarelli - Toscana Rosso IGT Boscarelli dei Boscarelli
Super Tuscan Bordeaux Blend of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Petite Verdot, and Syrah. Rich and dark red with notes of black cherry, cassis, plum, tobacco, leather, and mocha. It’s full-bodied and plush but it doesn’t feel heavy on the palate. It’s not just...
2016 Bovio - Barolo DOCG Riserva de Rieumes (750ml)
Only made in the best vintages, the Bovio 2016 Barolo Riserva De-Rieumes is a blend of fruit from two MGA sites in La Morra, Gattera and Arborina. This classic vintage shows beautifully right now with sharp contours and a very bright and vibrant quality o...
2020 Bovio - Barolo DOCG (750ml)
Fine nose with dusty white pepper, dried oranges and flowers. Tight and focused with mineral tension and a juicy, bright finish. A heap of chalky tannins. Drink or hold.
