Podere le Ripi Brunello di Montalcino DOCG 2019 ‘Cielo d‘Ulisse‘ Song: The House of The Rising Sun by The Animals. Love, craziness, experimentation, expressiveness and simplicity: this is the perfect recipe applied by this biodynamic estate, led by the winemaker Sebastian Nasello, one of the stars in the firmament of Montalcino. The north-west vineyard of Le Ripi, surrounded by luscious forests that guarantee a cool shelter from warm summers, gives birth to this great ‘cool climate‘ Brunello di Montalcino. Intense ruby red, the wine offers a complex bouquet with notes of black currants, blackberry, withered violets, dark chocolate, candied orange peel, to***co, mushrooms and an intriguing note of pinewood. Palate is Rock, rich, persistent, layered with flavors of currants, mushroom and pine, with a majestic tannin that leads to a succulent, lingering finish with a good mineral push.

San Guglielmo Rosso di Montalcino DOC 2021 Song: The Less I Know The Better by Tame Impala. A star is born! I cannot hold the excitement for the discovery of this young family-run estate in Montalcino, led by Ilaria and her husband Michael, with their elegant Sangioveses and their unique heart-shaped vineyard. Located in the most wooded area of Montalcino, San Guglielmo’s first vintage was 2016, from the vineyard previously planted by Ilaria’s father, who is still present, everyday, in the winery with his experience and dedication. This Rosso di Montalcino shines in the glass with a bright ruby red color. It opens with notes of crunchy cherry, red currants, violet, undergrowth and a scent of pink pepper. Palate is refreshing and elegant with a sapid finish and a long aftertaste of currants and violet. A Rosso with a defined Rock/Pop personality that takes a different direction compared to its ‘elder brother’ Brunello, for a more lighthearted and playful version of the Sangiovese from Montalcino. Production is limited to 3’000 bts. 100% Sangiovese. 1bt in Shipment. Drink Through 2024-2027. Open 2h before. Price $30

Barbaglia Colline Novaresi Uva Rara DOC 2022
Song: Wannabe by Spice Girls.
Silvia Barbaglia’s Uva Rara, a rare varietal typical of Northern Piedmont, is pure joy, with a beautiful ruby red color and notes of rose petals, red & black currants, a sweet/peppery note of black tea, sour orange and menthol. I’d recommend to drink this wine at slightly cooler temperatures of 13°C/55°F, in order to enhance its freshness and vibrant character. Palate is playful, with a refreshing side of wild rose and red currants and almost imperceptible tannins, with a sapid finish that makes it extremely enjoyable, leaving the tastebuds craving for another glass. Production is limited to 2’300 bts. 100% Uva Rara. 1bt in Shipment. Drink Through 2024-2025. Open and drink. Price $26. Drink chilled at 13°C/55°F.

Certain wines don’t need a description or an introduction. Certain wines remind me why I pursued this career. Certain wines are an epiphany. When science and research intertwine with sensitivity. When a wine is the sublimation of a terroir. A 28 year old wine of incredible modernity, the elegance of 2016, the intensity of 2019. Thank you and .winewolffish for the magical event.

based on Noir in San Casciano dei Bagni, in the South-Eastern side of . With higher altitudes and a
biodynamic approach to winemaking, Sancaba shows the most elegant side of the wines from Franchetti family, with a
Burgundy-style Pinot Noir that shows lightheartedness and impeccable quality. A profound and intense Pinot Noir, with

silky, while the complexity, typical of great Pinot Noirs, is given by a lingering freshness of red currants, raspberry and

This is a revolutionary experimentation for Brunelloland. Whole-bunch fermented with no pump-overs, creating a semi-carbonic environment in the cask almost similar to the Beaujolais Nouveau style.

The bouquet is intense and recalls the smells of a cellar right after the harvest, as if the winemaker
captured all the aromas of the fermenting casks in the bottle: the wine opens with a dominant note of
, then a progression of balsamic hints of eucalyptus and wet forest, potpourri, sweet
and maraschino . Palate is energetic, vibrant, with firm tannins that are overwhelmed by
a long aftertaste of black currants, blackberry and Jasmine tea. Production is limited to 12’000 bts. 100%
