True to the region, it has exuberant, piquant fruit, both peppery and floral throughout.

Punta Crena
Italy | Liguria | Colline Savonesi
A delightfully fresh, spicy, medium-bodied red scented of tart blackberries, wild mint, and other aromatic herbs.
Vigne Rada
Italy | Sardinia | Cannonau di Sardegna
This is by far the most aromatic Grenache we import, with a sweet fragrance of flowers, ripe strawberry, and Mediterranean herbs.
Corte Gardoni
Italy | Veneto | Bardolino
There is actually a depth of interest that can reflect man’s insignificance in the solar system. Take me to the terrace!
Guido Porro
Italy | Piedmont | Barbera d’Alba
These Barbera vines sit in a privileged Barolo site, so there is no shortage of pedigree.

A toothsome red wine showing deep, wild fruit of alluring levity, “Passatella” comes in convivial one-liter bottles perfect for sharing.

Fumin truly is, as Feuillet’s vigneron Maurizio Fiorano puts it, “an age-old pearl of local enology.”

This inky, chewy blend of Cannonau with the native Muristellu boasts a strikingingly wild perfume that soars from the glass.

Supple, pretty notes of freshly crushed blackberries and raspberries—it will pair well with pretty much anything.
Corte Gardoni
Italy | Veneto | Corvina Veronese IGT
At Corte Gardoni they believe in pure Corvina, putting the best aside for their Becco Rosso. Vibrant and faultlessly refreshing, this bottling has also been known to resemble much pricier Burgundy with some bottle age.
Gregoletto
Italy | Veneto | Colli Trevigiani
Unlike the opulent, Cassis-scented Merlots from Bordeaux’s Right Bank, this rendition—with its pretty notes of brambly wild berries and hints of spice—shows the more mineral, ethereal side of the grape.
Giovanni Montisci
Italy | Sardinia | Cannonau di Sardegna
The sweetly perfumed nose of rose petals, wild strawberry, and juniper prefaces this deep and powerful, yet exquisitely refined Cannonau, definitively putting Mamoiada on the map for lovers of Grenache and great Italian reds in general.
Corte Gardoni
Italy | Veneto | Bardolino
Lovely right now, but a candidate for cellaring as well. It is cool to drink some reds cool.

Vigne Rada
Italy | Sardinia | Alghero
Rada’s dense, minty Cagnulari is a reminder to take Sardinian reds very seriously.
Portelli

The wine builds to a crescendo and leaves the palate stained and saturated with staying power. This is much more than quaffing Frappato. Irresistible.

Italy | Sicily | Etna Rosso
This rosso shows a softer side of Etna, with all the volcano’s wild aromatics but none of the edgy tannins or high alcohol.
Giovanni Montisci
Italy | Sardinia
You’d be right to be skeptical of a Nebbiolo from Sardinia, but from a top-notch terroir high in the mountains, it is something else entirely.
La Basia
Italy | Lombardy | Valtènesi DOC
Fresh fruit, a peppery crunch, bright acidity, and light, smooth tannins.
Grottafumata
Italy | Sicily | IGT Terre Siciliane
Grottafumata means “smoky caves” and that's exactly what I think about when I swish this around. Grown in volcanic soils, it's a perfect balance between smoky tannins and Sicilian grapes.

Italy | Piedmont | Barbera d’Alba
Elegant, lithe, and versatile, this Barbera is full of young charm, fragrant fruit, and bright, mouthwatering acidity.
Silvio Giamello

Italy | Piedmont | Barbaresco
Gentle tannins and mouthwatering red fruit—this is young Barbaresco at its most pleasurable.
Giovanni Montisci Italy | Sardinia | Vino Rosso
Edi Kante
Italy | Friuli | Venezia Giulia
Medium-bodied and intensely aromatic, this wine provides an abundance of red berries and lip-smacking acidity.

Italy | Tuscany | IGT Toscana
By planting Pinot Nero in limestone at high elevation, he has found an unlikely home for the grape, yielding a singular rosso that is anything but international in style.
Tenuta Anfosso

Italy | Liguria | Rossese di Dolceacqua
The single-vineyard Luvaira showcases vines planted in 1905 for a bold, savory expression of this historic appellation, rife with suggestions of stones, faded flowers, leather, and game.

Tenuta Anfosso
Italy | Liguria | Rossese di Dolceacqua
The fruit—think cherries and strawberries—is more reserved, with smoke and stones sharing the stage.
Ferruccio Carlotto
Italy | Alto Adige | Alto Adige
This cuvée is dark-fruited velvet in a bottle.
Cantine Valpane
Italy | Piedmont
This light-ruby-colored red has less body than Valpane’s Barberas, but what it lacks in weight, it more than makes up for in perfume.
Masseria del Pino
Italy | Sicily | Etna Rosso
It’s immediately likable as it draws you in for another glass: fun, folksy label, vibrant berry and spice aromas, meticulously crafted using ancient methods.

Italy | Tuscany | Chianti Classico Riserva
Perennially Campriano’s bottling with the most irresistible, terroir-reminiscent notes of earth and undergrowth.
Villa Di Geggiano
Italy | Tuscany | Chianti Classico Riserva
Concentrated, youthful, and soulful, this Sangiovese is enchanting now, but it has a long life full of gorgeous evolution ahead.
Podere Campriano
Italy | Tuscany | Chianti Classico
This is delicious Sangiovese from the Greve zone of Chianti Classico and made by some of the nicest and most talented people you could ever hope to meet.

Italy | Sicily
Enough vibrance and freshness to drink well on its own, but just enough tannin and acid to be versatile at table.

Beautiful, classic Barolo nose. Intense depth. Fresh and complex.
Piero Benevelli
Italy | Piedmont
One of the most prestigious vineyard sites in his village of Monforte d’Alba, if not all of Barolo.
Benevelli Piero
Italy | Piedmont | Barolo
Le Coste is all about delicacy, finesse, and high-toned Nebbiolo fruit accented by perfumy floral notes.
Giulia Negri
Italy | Piedmont | Barolo
La Tartufaia is a divinely atmospheric truffle forest in the heart of La Morra where Giulia’s vineyards run parallel. The wines produced here, from clay-rich soil, are textbook examples of classically structured Barolo typical of the area.
Guido Porro
Italy | Piedmont | Barolo
The Barolos of Serralunga are renowned for their power and longevity, and while Porro’s Gianetto is not the unyielding, tannic beast of old, it will certainly benefit from a few years in your cellar.

Italy | Piedmont | Barbera del Monferrato
Luscious, mouth-filling cherry fruit, a strong soil signature, and smooth tannins make this the perfect Barbera to cure your weeknight Italian craving.

Riofavara
Italy | Sicily | Eloro
“Sciavè is the result of ancient clones of Nero d’Avola which, besides exalting the limestone matrix of its terroir of origin in the Eloro appellation, carry forth the elegance gleaned from patiently aging the wine in barrel.”
Villa Di Geggiano
Italy | Tuscany | Chianti Classico
Broad-shouldered, with hearty tannin and acidity and a dark, earthy quality to its fruit, it is a lumberjack wine that can cut through anything a Tuscan table can throw its way—wild game and aged cheeses are some of our favorites.

Guido Porro Italy | Piedmont | Barolo
Guido Porro
Italy | Piedmont | Barolo
A few years ago, Guido seized an opportunity to farm a tiny sliver of Serralunga’s historic Vigna Rionda vineyard. He paid dearly for half an hectare of what is the Romanée-Conti of Serralunga, and his rendition of this hallowed site is worth every cent. This is a masterpiece...
Guido Porro
Italy | Piedmont | Barolo
A decidedly bold Barolo style, which Guido tactfully finesses to allow room for all those sunbaked black cherry flavors.

Italy | Piedmont | Barolo
Alessandro Fantino’s Riservas are as good as Barolo gets.

Concentrated and intense yet elegant and refined, the “80” is made for the dinner table and built to last.
