2018  

Grapes are harvested from the municipalities of Castione Andevenno and Sondrio. Each vineyard site is harvested and vinified separately. Fermentation in stainless steel tanks. The wine ages in 25 hl and 56 hl oak barrels for about 20 months and then rests in steel tanks for 2 months before bottling. Bottle aging in dark and cool cellars for 6 months before release. Sassella comes from the Italian word "sasso", which means stone - this area is the rockiest sub-zone of the Valtellina Superiore DOCG. Ruby red color. Delicate bouquet with a prevalence of mineral and iron notes, hints of spices and dried flowers. On the palate the wine is harmonious, velvety and vibrant.

2017  

"The Rivetto dal 1902 2017 Barolo del Comune di Serralunga d'Alba shows more grit and power than most of the other Barolos in this flight, with a healthy serving of darkly concentrated fruit, sweet blackberry and cherry confit. Toasted oak, cedar sweetness and exotic spice also make an appearance. Some 20,000 bottles were made." - Wine Advocate

2019  

"The 2019 Barbaresco Marcarini (a certified organic wine) produces an elegant playlist of Nebbiolo aromas with wild berry, rusty earth, candied violets, lilac and licorice. This vintage is tonic and nicely firm in texture with a smooth and polished mouthfeel that is stitched together with a subtle tannic backbone. The wine is medium in length, but it would make a good near-term Barbaresco." - Wine Advocate

1990  Riserva Ducale

2016  

"The Salicutti 2016 Brunello di Montalcino Piaggione draws its fruit from a small 1.2-hectare parcel that sits a little lower in altitude on this beautiful bijou estate. Piaggione is one of the historic single-vineyard wines made here, and its personality is generous, open knit and elegant. The oak is well integrated and the wine offers taut, fresh and pure fruit intensity. There are bright berry and sour cherry aromas with blue flower, rosemary and a touch of crushed stone. Production for this pretty wine is 7,760 bottles." - 95pts WA

100% Nebbiolo. Serralunga d'Alba, a source of tannic, full-bodied Baroli characterised by deeper color, more structure, intensity & boldness. These are wines that require aging.

2016  

85% Nebbiolo, 15% Neretto and Ner d'Ala Red wine obtained from the best exposed vineyards with pergola and espalier raised on terraces. The first vintage was 2016. It is made up of 90% Nebbiolo “Picotendro” and the remainder of the more mature clusters of Ner d'Ala and Neretti. The grapes are heated under the sun to ensure a quick start of fermentation which takes place in steel and wood. Each vineyard is vinified separately. Maceration lasts an average of 90 days. The refinement, always separated by vineyard, is carried out in used wood (500 and 225 liters). Not filtered.

2009  Sagrantino di Montefalco

2019  Toscana IGT

""Wow. Fantastic aromas of blackberries, currants, minerals, violets and graphite. Full-bodied with firm, silky tannins that are incredibly polished and intense, yet ever so refined and integrated in the wine. It goes on for minutes. The is one of the best modern-day Orenos so far. Best in 2025 and onwards." - 99pts JS
