Sella E Mosca Riserva Cannonau di Sardegna Riserva 2008
Sardinia

Vinous 91:

A frankly ridiculous value, the 2008 Cannonau di Sardegna Riserva is gorgeous. Firm tannins frame a core of expressive red cherries, tobacco, wild herbs and flowers. The 2008 impresses for its depth and sheer richness. It is a magnificent wine from Sella e Mosca.

Cavallotto Langhe Nebbiolo 2014
Piedmont

Wine Advocate 90:

The 2014 Langhe Nebbiolo was born in what Alfio Cavallotto tells me was a problematic vintage with severe hail and rain storms. Because this estate farms according to organic and biodynamic methods, it lost up to 65% of its production. In fact, Cavallotto will not produce Barolo in 2014. The best Nebbiolo fruit was directed to this wine instead. Their loss is our gain as this wine offers a very good quality to price ratio. Fruit was harvested very late (the last few days of October) and the wine shows dark cherry ripeness with good structure at the back. The finish is slightly sweet and the wine ages in large oak casks for 18 months. Best 2017-2021.

Paitin Barbera d'Alba Serra 2010
Piedmont

Vinous 90:

Another solid effort, the 2010 Barbera d'Alba Serra is beautiful. Sweet red cherries, tar and roses jump from the glass as this juicy Barbera opens up. The 2010 has plenty of both fruit and structure. It is a nicely balanced, textured wine to enjoy over the next handful of years.

Sterza Valpolicella Ripasso Classico Superiore 2010
Veneto

Wine Enthusiast Editor’s Choice 90:

This drinks like a young Amarone but is priced like a Valpolicella red. Carefully aged in oak for 12 months, this is supple and soft, bursting with red fruit aromas and a long, spicy finish.

Terrabianca Campaccio 2004
Tuscany

Wine Advocate 91:

The 2004 Campaccio (70% Sangiovese, 30% Cabernet Sauvignon) reveals layers of ripe fruit with notable vitality on the palate and enough concentration to stand up to the oak treatment. It offers outstanding length and fine overall balance in a big, bold style that will require a few years to come together in the bottle.

Rocca Di Castagnoli Chianti Classico 2007
Tuscany

Wine Advocate 90, Vinous 90:

The 2007 Chianti Classico is an impeccable, elegant wine graced with fine, silky tannins that frame floral red berries, spices and licorice. This soft, inviting Chianti Classico impresses for its superb balance and class.
