2020 Valli Ossolane Nebbiolo Superiore “Prünent Diecibrente”
Italy | Piedmont
The family’s top bottling of Prünent from a single vineyard is aged for an extra year in large cask and has another gear, and many corners and crevices to explore.

2021 Valli Ossolane Nebbiolo Superiore “Prünent Diecibrente”
Italy | Piedmont
Made from vines planted in 1933 and aged the longest of the Garrones’ reds, this is the pinnacle of the family’s world-class Nebbioli.

2024 Langhe Arneis
Italy | Piedmont
This dreamy wine reaffirms that we should turn more often to Piedmont not only for our reds but also for our whites!

2020 Barolo “Ravera di Monforte”
Italy | Piedmont
Beautiful, classic Barolo nose. Intense depth. Fresh and complex.

2021 Barolo “Marassio”
Italy | Piedmont
Unusual for La Morra, the soil here is rich in limestone with veins of chalk, giving Giulia’s most dense, profound, earth- and mineral-driven Barolo.

2022 Barbaresco “Vicenziana”
Italy | Piedmont
Rich, ripe fruit with the delicacy and floral notes we love in great Barbaresco.

2022 Dolcetto d‘Alba “La Costa” MAGNUM
Italy | Piedmont
Bone-dry and tangy, with brambly black fruit and a bold, old-school Italian bite.

“Ross da Travaj” Vermouth
Italy | Piedmont
A stellar, artisanal red Vermouth whose uses are endless.

2023 Erbaluce di Caluso “Tredicimesi”
Italy | Piedmont
Both generous and chiseled, it evokes orchard fruit, citrus, and has an irresistibly saline finish.

2021 Valli Ossolane Nebbiolo Superiore “Prünent”
Italy | Piedmont
This smooth and noble wine has the depth and structure to pair with venison or other wild game while remaining immediately approachable. There are no rough edges!
About The Producer
Tintero
The commune of Mango is the heart of Moscato country, and 20 of the Tinteros’ 30 hectares are planted to this grape. Their largest parcel is in the Sorì Gramella vineyard, whose full southern exposure and gradient of more than 20% pamper the grapes with many long hours of sunshine, without even casting shadows from one row to the next as is the case in most vineyards. The resulting wine is delightfully fizzy and slightly sweet, an irresistible combination that makes it a universal favorite. Marco Tintero also maintains that same spirit in his other wines, which are all fresh, easy, and fun to drink with friends.
About The Region
Piedmont
Kermit’s love affair with the great reds of Piemonte dates back to the early days of his career: the very first container he imported from Italy, in fact, featured legendary 1971 and 1974 Barolos from Vietti and Aldo Conterno. Regular visits since then have seen our portfolio grow to now twelve Piemontesi estates, with a strong focus on the rolling hills of the Langhe.
Nebbiolo rules these majestic, vine-covered marl slopes, giving Italy’s most mystifyingly complex, nuanced, and age-worthy reds. When crafted via traditional production methods—long macerations and extensive aging in enormous oak botti—the powerful, yet incredibly refined Barolos and Barbarescos provide haunting aromatics of tar, raspberry, incense, tea, roses, and more. At times austere in their youth but well worth the wait, they pair beautifully with the hearty local cuisine starring veal in many forms, braised beef, pastas like tajarin and agnolotti, and of course, Alba’s famous white truffles.
Surrounded by mountains on three sides, Piemonte’s climate is continental, with baking hot summers and cold winters. Nebbiolo is only part of the story here: juicy, fruity Barberas and Dolcettos represent the bread and butter throughout the region, and other native grapes like Freisa, Croatina, and the white Arneis are also noteworthy. Value abounds in the Monferrato, while Alto Piemonte also has its share of thrills to provide.
Every corner of Piemonte is rich with tradition, especially when wine is concerned. It’s no wonder we have been singing the region’s praises for over forty years.
