Marchesi Antinori Vina Haras de Pirque
Marchesi Antinori Hussonet Cabernet Sauvignon Gran Reserva 2018
The 2018 growing year gifted Haras de Pirque with stupendous raw materials, and the ’18 Hussonet packs a serious punch at its modest... price point. A blend of mostly Cabernet Sauvignon with Carménère and a kiss of Merlot, this silky-smooth, aromatic wine holds its cassis and blackberries in a spicy, peppery hand, scattering the nose with fresh mint, milk chocolate and oak. Balanced and delicious, this wine makes you want to open another bottle almost immediately.

Hands down this is one of the very best Barbera I’ve had, not just from Asti, but from Alba as well. This voluptuous, velvety delight is a dark wonder that pops in... the glass with notes of violets and plums. Balanced acidity that marries perfectly with notes of bright red fruits, the Valmorena’s smooth tannins caress the palate as you sip away at this simply gorgeous little wine.

Agricola Punica Samas IGT 2018
The 2018 Samas is a lovely golden, straw-yellow color that scintillates in the glass as light passes through it. There is a distinguished Mediterranean aroma in the... nose, like you’re standing on one of Sardegna’s high hilltops and looking out over the sea. The bouquet pops with tropical and citrus notes revealing a light freshness that explodes on the palate as you take your first sip. Balanced and clean with fresh lemons, tangerines and orange, there is a bit of salinity that grabs your attention. It all then vanishes with a clean finish. Wow. An extra note on the wine making process: The wine is pressed at an average temperature of 60°F and kept cool while refining. Open vats for the vinification process allow for proper yeast control and while most whites ferment for a week or two at most, this little wine ferments for 40 days...that’s crazy! After pressing and fermenting, the two wines (Vermentino and Chardonnay) are then blended and allowed to rest in concrete for 3 months unfiltered and as naturally made as possible. This attention to detail is amazing for such an affordable wine!

Primosic Collio Pinot Grigio
Hailing from Collio, the famous Italian white region of northern Italy, Primosic has been producing mostly white wines since the late 1960s. Primosic himself was one of... the founders of the Collio DOC in 1967 and he, like Gravner and Radikon, has been one of the pioneers in making incredible wines from this region become a worldly affair. Their Pinot Grigio has a bright minerality thanks to the calcareous and sandy soils of the vineryards and a fresh, clean finish you want in a house-styled white in the price point. You’ll love this!

Tommaso Bussola Valpolicella Ripasso Superiore Ca' del Laito 2018
Though the grapes for this wine come from a number of vineyards, it gets its name from the Ca’ del Laito vineyard, which sits on a... ridge directly above Quintarelli. Bold, rich, and surprisingly complex, the 2018 Valpolicella Ripasso Superiore Ca' del Laito explodes with juicy cherries and berries, balsamic herbs, underbrush, warm earth, and sprinklings of potpourri and cocoa. A ripasso wine, this Valpolicella “passes” through the lees of the estate’s classic Amarone, adding intensity, polish, and finesse. An absolute bang for the buck!
