Our Barbera d'Alba Superiore is made from Barbera grapes grown on our own vineyards. These vineyards are planted on Helvetian soil, which lends structure and elegance, enhanced by approximately one year of aging in wood. The color is an intense ruby red, tending towards violet and purple. On the nose, it offers vinous aromas of red and black fruits such as cherry, plum, and blackberry. The palate is full and robust, with a pleasant flavor of typical red and black fruits and a pleasant sensation

From Ravera in Monforte. As the vines age they will make Barolo! From Ravera in Monforte, this is made from the youngest vines (that will eventually be made as Barolo) and is made the same way as her three Barolos and then aged in barriques for twelve months. As a baby Barolo, this has some serious pedigree with rich, plush fruit of red berries with crushed flowers. Hard to beat for the money and an ‘affordable’ cellaring option.**Due Sept 2025**

Domenico Clerico Barolo 2013

Nebbiolo | Piedmont, Barolo (sub-region)

From one of the Barolo Boys, it's only fitting that 2013 has ended up as the release in the year of Domenico's Passing A Barolo with a great purity of darker fruit, hints of tar, and, a perfumed lift of violets. Just a lick of oak adding to the wine's complexity. Lovely generosity and length of fruit. Long even tannins.

Domenico Clerico Barolo 2017

Nebbiolo | Piedmont, Barolo

A massive surprise, the oak is no longer the dominant feature of the Clerico wines. Hoo fucken’ ray! We have balance! I can see fruit, I can see the Commune and I can happily swallow the beverage and want to go back for another sniff. I couldn’t even say that about the 2016’s. So what’s going on? Domenico did so much to help revitalise Barolo, it would however be fair to say that after the early revolution, evolution was very slow. The wines often dominated by overt oak and tough tannins

Domenico Clerico Barolo di Monforte 2021

Nebbiolo | Piedmont, Barolo

This is an excellent evolution for Clerico. The Barolo di Monforte has wonderful harmony. Very expressive, where historically Monforte shows much firmer, structured tannins.  Demonstrating how the hand of the maker can create a wine that is more approachable upon release.The tannins are exceptional, long, even and fine. Yes, structurally present in a very good way and with the core of fruit to hold them. This will undoubtedly deliver more in the bottle as it resolves and the secondary devel

Barale Barolo ‘Bussia’ 2018

Nebbiolo | Piedmont, Barolo

Oh so pretty! This is very well played. Bussia is right in the north of Monforte, which as a whole was very poorly defined during the MGA classification. It tends to produce wines of more elegance than many of the Crus further south in Monforte. Barale’s 2018s have been beautifully composed. The Bussia tannins are fine and restrained. The development and oxidative handling demands quality fruit and it has that with a solid core of red fruits layered in with savoury, earthy notes. I’m enjoyin

The Bold!

Giovanni Sordo Barolo ‘Perno’ 2015

Nebbiolo | Piedmont, Barolo

Took the second longest to reveal more of itself. Like the other wines in the bracket it demands time in the bottle. Perfume combined with secondary complexity the name of the game here! This is all Monforte, with giveaway blue fruits, violet, cherry liqueur and some mint. Firm, taut and fleshy, this is typical of this part of Perno, the Cerretta parcel, immediately adjoining Conterno-Fantino’s, with which it shares a similar darker ‘blue’ style. Tannins seem very ripe this year…but they
