Well-spiced, with a minerally underpinning and tightly meshed notes of black raspberry, singed orange peel and licorice string, plus a hint of espresso crema. Fresh and firm on the lingering finish. Best from 2025 through 2030. 400 cases made, 38 cases imported.

Tightly meshed and fresh, with raw silk–like texture carrying finely detailed notes of nectarine and yellow plum, verbena and chamomile, chalk and brine. Elegant. Drink now through 2027. 583 cases made, 55 cases imported.

A vibrant red, with fine integration and good drive, layering taut tannins and bright acidity with flavors of macerated cherry, black tea leaf and tar-tinged smoke, plus a touch of lingering spices on the lightly chewy finish. Drink now through 2027. 583 cases made, 200 cases imported.

A zippy white, with salty tang supporting flavors of crunchy pear, grated ginger, Meyer lemon peel, pastry cream and blanched almond. Drink now through 2027. 2,083 cases made, 640 cases imported.

An understated Vino Nobile with discreet minerals, spiced plums, cumin and tarry savoriness that needs some time to pull together and open up further. Quite nicely chewy and tight, with a full-bodied palate and a clean, mineral finish. A little demanding now, but shows potential. Try after 2024.

“Bright red. The nose offers nuances of raspberry, tobacco and violet. Then similar flavours in the mouth have lovely juiciness and lifting acidity that really provides lovely clarity and cut. The long finish is savoury and fine. A lovely, very pure Nebbiolo wine that finishes youthfully mouthcoating; best with food but this will be very enjoyable on its own too with another six to twelve months of cellaring. Made with the youngest vines of Nebbiolo (at least six years of age) of the Brunate site (that is being replanted) and from a vineyard in Neviglie, just outside the Barbaresco denomination. Drinking window: 2025-2031..” -Ian D’Agata
