2002  Bricco Visette

"Barolo has ancient origins. Documents testify to the growing of Nebbiolo in the Visette area as long ago as the XII century, when the Saracen invasions advanced inland into Piedmont from the Ligurian coast. These influences led to the old centre of the village of Monforte being named "Saracca." The name Visette itself comes from the local dialect word for the vine, "vis." Made from Nebbiolo grapes grown in the Visette (Bussia) area of Monforte d’Alba." - Ghisolfi

2018  Sicilia Grillo Naturalmente Bio

Sicilia Grillo Naturalmente Bio -- The Grillo vines have always been the flagship of our vineyards. For Grillo we have chosen the highest hill to enhance its freshness and aromas. Intensity and elegance are the mix of this wine. Its olfactory and gustatory panorama is ample, maintaining its innate finesse.

2019  Terre di Giumara

Terre di Giumara -- Inzolia, which is characterized by intense and elegant fragrances, is a result of an ancient equilibrium between the strong and generous soil and the vine that seems to never suffer. Clean and graceful. Its intense bouquet expresses soft refinement and grace. The taste is fruity, crisp and soft. In one’s mouth it is persistent and intense.

2014  Barbaresco

"A lively version, displaying cherry, plum, licorice, spice and subtle tar flavors. Taut and balanced, exuding a mineral element on the long finish. Really elegant overall. Best from 2021 through 2035. 114 cases made." - 95pts WS

2015  Classico

Classico -- "Castell'in Villa's 2015 Chianti Classico is a gorgeous wine that will delight readers who enjoy the Chianti Classicos of this reference-point estate in Castelnuovo Berardenga. Crushed flowers, mint, licorice, dried herbs, cedar and tobacco give the 2015 lovely aromatic complexity. The 2015 is perhaps a bit more open than young wines tend to be here, but then again, 2015 is a warm vintage that generally yielded accessible Chianti Classicos. All that means is that the 2015 can be enjoyed with less cellaring than is the norm here. As it so often is, the Castell'in Villa Chianti Classico is a wine of real pedigree and distinction." - 92pts Vinous

2010  Castello di Verduno Barolo Riserva Monvigliero

92+ JG The 2010 Monvigliero Riserva from the Castello di Verduno is an absolutely superb wine in the making, offering up a deep and pure bouquet of black cherries, bonfire, spit-roasted gamebird, superb soil tones, licorice and a nice touch of fresh oregano in the upper register. On the palate the wine is pure, full-bodied and nicely structured, with a sappy core, fine focus and grip, tangy acids and a long, ripely tannic and nascently complex finish. Another outstanding example of this exceptional terroir. 2023-2055+.

2013  Bolgheri Rosso DOC

The Ceraltis have been farmers for several generations in Bolgheri, and after many years of selling grapes to Ornellaia and Sassacaia, 10 years ago, they built their own winery and are now bottling their entire estates' grape production This is their entry level Bolgheri DOC wine which means the grapes come from the best region of Bolgheri. A big, fruity red, almost New World in style except for the vibrant acidity and firm backbone of tannins. The bright fruit evokes black cherry and black currant flavors, while cedar and leather notes add depth. A complete package.
