The Motherlode of Aged Vintages

Italy holds an unrivaled place in our imaginations – whether through trips we’ve taken, shared meals, or the country’s natural beauty. This collective love for Italian culture has certainly helped make our Italian offers among our top performers. Last year, an aged Barolo offer stood out as one of our most successful, proving that collectors and restaurants alike are returning to back vintages and cellar-worthy classics, seeking both history and pleasure in every bottle.

We’re often asked how our Italian prices remain so reasonable. We always price against the market, using auctions as our benchmark, so you know you’re getting fair, current value. Speaking of value, I’m especially taken with Produttori del Barbaresco’s single-vineyard bottlings – pure expressions of the cooperative’s genius. Their entry-level Barbarescos and Rossos are staples in my own cellar; the quality is extraordinary, and the single-vineyard bottlings are absolutely worth stocking up on. Biondi Santi, the original Brunello, continues to define age-worthy Sangiovese, and no serious cellar should be without a few bottles. Other highlights include multiple vintages of Gaudo al Tasso and Fontodi’s Flaccianello, modern masterpieces that even classicists can’t resist. These wines perfectly marry tradition with contemporary finesse, proving that modernity, when done right, is unforgettable.

This is your chance to acquire wines that combine elegance, depth, and smart pricing, whether you’re seeking iconic growers, mature Piedmont or Tuscany to enjoy soon, or back vintages to enrich your cellar and age gracefully. These wines still have years of life ahead, so don’t miss the opportunity to fill your storage with bottles you’ll treasure. As always, provenance is impeccable, and all are already in the U.S. so no tariffs!
