Rocche Dei Manzoni Barolo "Roche" 2003


94 Points | Robert Parker's Wine Advocate  

This is a stunning, opulent wine, with layers of ripe dark fruit that flow from the glass with notable depth and luxuriousness. It remains less well known, so this Barolo will likely fly under the radar. Discerning consumers, though, will want to give it careful consideration.” Antonio Galloni


Peter Dipoli Sauvignon Blanc "Voglar" 2006

92 Points | Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2006 Sauvignon Voglar is gorgeous. This is one of the few Italian Sauvignons that reconciles varietally true aromatics with ripe but beautifully-balanced fruit. Notes of ripe pears, peaches, apricots, minerals, flowers and spices all make an appearance as this superb white opens in the glass.” Antonio Galloni

Rocche dei Manzoni Barbera d'Alba Sorito Mosconi 1999

Ca'del Merlo


92 Points | Wine Spectator

One of Piedmont’s most elegant French-oak aged Barbera, it has matured since this Wine Spectator review into a wonderfully balanced version. "Big and juicy, with loads of ripe fruit and toasted coconut on the nose. Full-bodied and oozing with fruit and cocoa. Goes on for minutes. Wild."



Billecart-Salmon Brut Rose


billecartrose
One of the wine trade's best kept secrets and one of Robert Parker's favorite houses..."Billecart-Salmon is one of my favorite Champagne houses and their non-vintage Rose is a consistent winner. A delicate pink color is accompanied by gorgeous sweet cherry, mineral-like scents and a delicate, crisp personality."  Robert Parker



 

Giuseppe Quintarelli Primofiore 2005

Primofiore or First Flower is Giuseppe's entry level red made from the first pressings of traditional grape varieties with the possible addition of Cabernet Franc. This value wine introduces the true style of the Master, with layer upon layer of rich fruit, olives, plum and spices. Never overstated, the balance of this “table wine” is perfect with nice minerality and supple tannins.
