Rossore, 100% Barbera, was Fabrizio's first wine. The name refers to the red flush on one's cheeks after drinking it.  It comes from different south-facing parcels planted between 1985 and 1990, harvest at the end of September or beginning of October. Vinification is in concrete with 21-28 days of...

TA-DA! is a co-harvest/co-ferment of Pinot Nero, Baratuciat, Slarina and Grignolino. Pinot Nero harvested on late side of ripeness, Grignolino on early side.  Fermented and aged in concrete.

Malidea is 100% Nebbiolo.  It's also the name of the hill between the cantina and where the Nebbiolo vines were planted, in 1999.   "Mal' idea" in Italian means "bad idea," an apt name for a Nebbiolo wine in the land of Barbera, but a challenge Fabrizio wanted to take. The south-facing vineyard was...

Natalin is made with 100% Grignolino.   Natalin was also Fabrizio's grandfather's nickname and Grignolino was the wine he loved the most.  This wine comes from a few different vineyards, planted in 1970, 1990, and 2016 with east, west, and north expsoures.  Fermentation in concrete vats with 12...

Located in the southeast corner of Bennett Valley, Jemrose Vineyard consists of rolling hillsides surrounded on the south, east and west by Sonoma Mountain.

Grenache (42%), Syrah (38%), and Mourvèdre (20%) grown in three sites - from Sonoma to the Yorkville Highlands, and further north at Alder Springs in Mendocino County. These rocky, coastal, and high-elevation vineyards produce a vibrant and concentrated Rhone-inspired blend. The fruit was foot...

Again from the Contrada San Nicola vineyard, outside the village of Mazara del Vallo in western Sicily, we find Nero d’Avola vines tended to by the ever thoughtful Sala sisters. The vines are just 15 years old on average but the wine is ever complex. While some Nero d’Avola wines can be on the...

In the history of Barolo, before the prevalence of single-cru bottlings, it was more common to blend fruit from sites of differing exposure, altitude, and soil type in order to obtain a more expressive and balanced wine.  Baudana's Barolo Serralunga combines fruit from the younger vines (planted...

The cru of Baudana can seem undersung compared to more famous sites, but in the recent past it was not so. “This vineyard has contributed to creating excellent signature wines since the 1930s and has always been held in high esteem by the locals”--Atlante delle Vigne di Langa, Slow Food, 1990.  It...
