100% Pallagrello nero, a grape grown almost exclusively in Campania. Noted for cherry on the nose and palate, with pepper and spice characteristics, and tannins enabling the wine to be laid down for a time.
The red robin, who graced this wine with its name and image, is a symbol of Lombardy. The wine gets two years in barrel and is a blend of wines from all three of Arpepe's vineyards.
The Rosso di Valtellina is Arpepe's introduction to the perfect Nebbiolo wines of the Alps. Made at the Northern end of Lombardy at high elevations, this is the wine that sees the lightest treatment of oak and lightest aging.
This promising first bottling has a fragrant nose, with cassis, cherry, and a slight tobbaco edge on the palate, and fine tannins balanced by a lively acidity.
This promising first bottling from younger vines serves up a vibrant, slightly herbaceous red fruit profile with hints of minerality and spice. Drink now or before 2028.
COS pretty much single-handedly revitalized Cerasuolo di Vittoria when it was virtually extinct, and it is now the only DOCG in Sicily. The wine has bold red fruit, fine-grained tannins, and is also herbal/earthy. Can a wine be both sophisticated and rustic? If so, this is.
A tiny bottling of Nebbiolo from the 1.5 hectare Roccabella vineyard right outside La Morra. Stainless steel and used barrels keep this wine silky smooth and exquisite on the palate.
A luscious-on-the-nose, savourably complex, and intense red that plays well with both street vendor or bistro pizza, named in memory of the winemakers' adorable wiener dog, Tomomi.
Lacrima is a strongly rose-scented Red grape indigenous to the Marche region that usually makes a light aperitif wine. Natalino's grapevines are old and only give him one bunch per year, so he makes them count with a strong and intense Red wine.
Elizabetta's lighter drink-easy style of her storied Teroldego. Playfully combining amphora, wood, cement and steel 'let it be' for short maceration. Exotic, rare, valuable juice that belongs on Discovery Channel.
Rarely do you find a winemaker so dedicated to resurrecting a single grape varietal as Foradori is with Teroldego. This wine gives a pure vision of one of Italy's great Alpine red grapes from a blended selection of her vineyards. Amazing steak wine!
