2016 Castello delle Cerbaie Brunello di Montalcino
The 2016 Brunello di Montalcino from Casanuova delle Cerbaie is a standout expression of Sangiovese from one of Tuscany’s most revered appellations. Sourced primarily from vineyards on the prestigious Montosoli hill—renowned for its exceptional terroir—the grapes benefit from elevations between 250 and 350 meters and soils rich in marl, calcareous rock, and galestro. The wine is traditionally vinified with indigenous yeasts in stainless steel tanks and undergoes extended maceration before aging for 30 months in large Slavonian oak barrels from Stockinger. A further four months of bottle aging ensures a balanced and elegant final product. In the glass, the 2016 vintage displays a brilliant garnet hue and an aromatic bouquet that unfolds with notes of ripe red cherries, black plum, hints of licorice, and Mediterranean herbs. The palate is both refined and structured, offering vibrant acidity, fine-grained tannins, and a long, graceful finish. This is a classic, age-worthy Brunello that remains approachable in its youth yet promises decades of evolution.The wine has received critical acclaim, including 95 points from James Suckling, who praised its precision and purity. Casanuova delle Cerbaie was established in the late 1970s by a German entrepreneur drawn to the beauty and potential of Montalcino. In 2008, the estate entered a new chapter under the ownership of Roy Welland, a New York-based wine collector and investor. Under his leadership and with guidance from celebrated enologist Paolo Vagaggini—whose expertise spans top estates such as Biondi-Santi and Fuligni—the estate has sharpened its focus on terroir-driven, traditionally crafted Brunello. With a limited annual production of about 2,500 cases, the 2016 Casanuova delle Cerbaie Brunello di Montalcino offers a rare and authentic taste of Tuscany’s finest winemaking traditions.

2019 Roberto Voerzio Barolo del Comune di La Morra
Roberto Voerzio is undeniably one of the stars of Piedmont and a Barolo producer with a worldwide following, his philosophy is a simple one; from the healthiest lowest-yielding vines, in the greatest plots, come the very finest wines. His vineyard management is meticulous and covers hard pruning, green harvesting, pruning, and leaf thinning which, together with his policy of having high planting density, result in an exceptionally small production. Though his family was never able to hold property in this area, Roberto, piece by piece, was able to put together 15 hectares and now owns a parcel of each of those gran crus. The beauty is that he bought those vineyards from people who already had 60, 70, or 80-year-old vines in place. The wines are an exquisite mix of intensity and lightness, measured concentration and bright juicy, moreish flavors. Structured and supple, the magnificent 2019 La Morra is a luxurious, enticing taste of what Voerzio's wines are all about...bombshell Barolo's which won't break the bank.

2012 Giuseppe Quintarelli 'Alzero' Cabernet
The 2012 Giuseppe Quintarelli 'Alzero' Cabernet is a profound expression of Veneto's potential to produce world-class wines from Bordeaux varietals. A rare and captivating blend—primarily Cabernet Franc, with smaller amounts of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot—'Alzero' is crafted using the appassimento method, traditionally employed for Amarone. Grapes are dried for several months before fermentation, resulting in a wine of tremendous depth, concentration, and complexity. In the glass, the 2012 'Alzero' opens with a kaleidoscope of aromas: ripe black cherries, cassis, dried figs, tobacco, and sweet spice, all wrapped in a framework of velvety tannins and well-integrated oak. The palate is opulent yet impeccably balanced, showcasing dark fruit compote, chocolate, and a savory herbal quality that lingers on the finish. Despite its richness, there’s a remarkable sense of freshness and energy. This vintage has been praised by critics, with Vinous awarding it 96 points, highlighting its remarkable depth and aging potential. Giuseppe Quintarelli, often referred to as the "Maestro of the Veneto," built his reputation over decades through uncompromising quality and traditional methods. The estate, located in the hills of Negrar in the Valpolicella region, has been a benchmark for artisanal winemaking since the 1950s. Quintarelli’s legacy lives on through his daughter Fiorenza, her husband Giampaolo Grigoli, and their children, who continue to uphold the estate’s revered standards. 'Alzero' remains one of the most unique and collectible wines from Italy—not only for its richness and elegance, but also for its soulful expression of place and tradition. The 2012 vintage, with over a decade of bottle age, is entering its prime drinking window but will continue to evolve beautifully for another 10–15 years.

2019 Livio Sassetti Pertimali Brunello di Montalcino
We’re delighted to offer the 2019 Livio Sassetti Pertimali Brunello di Montalcino, a standout vintage from one of Montalcino’s most historic and respected producers. Made exclusively from 100% Sangiovese Grosso, the wine reflects the pedigree of the Montosoli cru—one of the most esteemed zones in northern Montalcino, known for producing Brunello with exceptional balance, energy, and longevity. The Sassetti family has been rooted in Montalcino for over a century, with Livio Sassetti formalizing the Pertimali estate in the 1960s. Since then, the family has become synonymous with classically styled Brunello: wines that honor tradition while expressing a distinct sense of place. Under the stewardship of Livio’s sons, the estate has remained family-run, focusing on low yields, organic farming, and minimal intervention to allow the vineyard's voice to shine through. The 2019 vintage is a textbook example of this philosophy. It opens with aromas of crushed cherry, dried rose petal, sweet herbs, and warm Tuscan earth. On the palate, it is structured yet graceful, offering fine-grained tannins, bright acidity, and a persistent mineral core that speaks to its Montosoli origins. Already compelling, it promises to evolve beautifully over the next two decades.

2019 Tenuta dell Ornellaia
Ornellaia has established itself firmly among the iconic wine estates of Italy and has long been considered the Tuscan ambassador for truly exceptional wines. Inspired by their Gallic counterparts Chateaux Lafite & Latour, the combination of Bolgheri’s unique soils and perfect growing conditions, and what can only be characterized as a total obsession with excellence, result in the only possible outcome - stunning, world-class wines. The beautiful 98-point 2019 Ornellaia elicits this glowing testimonial from Robert Parker: "a specific darkness that has elements of both inky saturation and ruby highlights. The wine is saturated and rich—this is something you notice off the bat—but it also reveals a pleasing lightness or grace that is transmitted to both the bouquet and the palate. Dark fruit, pressed blackberry and plum mingle with more substantial aromas of spice, leather and sweetly cured tobacco. The tannins are beautifully managed, and the wine sports considerable heft and density on the palate that drives a very long and pleasurable mouthfeel." Come and get it - First come, first served.
