2021 Vietti - Barolo DOCG Cerequio (750ml)
The 2021 Barolo Cerequio marries elegance and power in the way only Nebbiolo can. Bright acids and strong oral inections run through this mid-weight yet dense, layered wine. All the elements are deftly woven together. This nuanced, nely sketched Barolo...
2021 Vietti - Barolo DOCG Monvigliero (750ml)
This is the baby in the bunch, representing one of the newest additions to the Vietti portfolio, with the first vintage produced in 2018. The learning curve in Monvigliero is always steep, or so most winemakers tell me, because very few can go to 100% who...
2022 Vietti - Langhe Nebbiolo DOC Perbacco (750ml)
Some fruit from Roncaglie goes into this wine, along with tidbits from other scattered Barolo vineyards. Aged for two years in large oak barrel, the Vietti 2022 Langhe Nebbiolo Perbacco is not too far off from tasting and smelling like a full-fledged Barb...
2020 Vietti - Barolo DOCG Brunate
The Vietti 2020 Barolo Brunate has a dark and spicy side that is infused throughout the fruit. Dark cherry and blackcurrant are folded into ferrous earth, grilled rosemary, aniseed and a hint of fresh mint. Brunate tends to be quite austere and firm in te...

This captivating red is expressive and layered, offering cherry, strawberry, plum, cut hay, green tea and iron aromas and flavors. Well-structured and balanced, with a lively feel and a superbly long finish that echoes the fruit and savory elements. Best ...
2021 Vietti - Barolo Ravera (750ml)
You could argue that this is the wine with the fasting growing quality trajectory because this vineyard site is one of those rare places in the appellation that appears to improve despite (or more likely because of) a changing climate. Ravera enjoys an op...
2021 Vietti - Barolo Rocche (750ml)
his is a serious beauty that reminds us of the brilliant work underway at this leading estate. Yes, ownership has changed over recent years, but this wine remains "Rocche-solid." From an epic vintage, the Vietti 2021 Barolo Rocche di Castiglione is a clas...
2020 Vietti - Barolo Lazzarito
Lazzarito stands out as one of the strongest wines in this portfolio of new releases from Vietti. With fruit from Serralunga d'Alba, the 2020 Barolo Lazzarito comes in at a very high threshold in terms of complexity, offering dark cherry, crème de cassis,...
