2022 Guido Porro Barbera d’Alba “Vigna Santa Caterina”
The 40-year old vines for this Barbera sit in a privileged Barolo site, so there is no shortage of pedigree here. It’s a head-turning everyday pizza wine that makes you feel like you got a good deal. We love those wines. It’s also something you want to have on hand for a dinner party – and if you aren’t having pizza, enjoy it with chicken parmigiana.

$55.00Grown high on a west-facing slope above the fog line on the northern ridge of Atlas Peak, this is a true mountain Cabernet. The palate is dense, layered, and impeccably structured, finishing long and refined. It carries the essence of red volcanic soil, wild California chaparral, and sun-drenched hillsides.
