Italy is a wonderful patchwork quilt of a country with incredible regionality and local traditions.

Whether you like a more modernist or traditionalist approach, international or indigenous varieties, the Italian wine scene has never been more exciting.

TASTING NOTES
As always, this Barbera impresses for its sheer depth and charm. It comes from vines close to the Gavarini vineyard. Gianluca employs a very gentle use of barriques to help soften the sharp natural acidity of the Barbera. The result is pure joy. Its mouth-watering, juicy bramble fruits combine on the palate with sleek and softly spiced essence. This is...
