Lorenzo Accomasso
For lovers of traditional Barolo, Accomasso will add a new dimension to your appreciation and enjoyment of Italy’s greatest wine, Barolo.
Cascina Baricchi
With his Barbaresco “Rosé delle Casasse,” proprietor Natale Simonetta’s Cascina Baricchi is today’s standard-bearer for the rare Nebbiolo clone, Nebbiolo Rosé.
Biondi-Santi
For more than a century, Biondi-Santi stood apart from all Brunello producers, producing legendary wines that have come to define classic Brunello. The Biondi-Santi traditions continue today, unchanged, in the very capable hands of Franco’s son, Jacopo.
Brovia
Long a favorite among Nebbiolo cognoscenti, Brovia produces some of Piedmont’s most profoundly expressive wines. Yet, this cantina has long flown under the radar, only recently gaining recognition as one of Barolo’s traditional giants.
G.B. Burlotto
In the late 19th century, Giovan Battista Burlotto’s accomplishments were rivaled only by those of Biondi-Santi and Vega Sicilia, as he achieved superstardom in a world dominated by French wines.
Tommaso Bussola
When Veneto legend Giuseppe Quintarelli was asked years ago to name the region’s next superstar, he didn’t hesitate: Tommaso Bussola. Today, that prediction has been proven by a string of superlative ...
Calabretta
Like the great traditionalists of Barolo and Montalcino, Calabretta uses indigenous varieties and long aging in large casks to produce some of Italy’s most extraordinary wines – at extraordinarily low prices.
Cappellano
A legend in Barolo, Teobaldo Cappellano was one of the region’s most outspoken traditionalists. Today, his son Augusto continues his father’s important work producing the renowned Barolos “Pie Franco” and “Rupestris.”
Il Carnasciale
Il Caberlot, and its second label Carnasciale, are grown on a bluff overlooking the Arno River, and are the only wines in the world made from a mysterious clone discovered four decades ago.
Cerbaiona
The more we explore Brunello, the more we realize that a handful of surviving traditionalists are the growers to be truly revered. One of the greatest of these is Cerbaiona's Diego Molinari.
Giacomo Conterno
Among the most profound expressions of Barolo can be found in bottles bearing the Giacomo Conterno name. They represent the ideal of traditional Barolo: rich, powerful, massively structured.
Marco Ferrari
Bruno Giacosa
Few could rival Bruno Giacosa for not only the stature of his work, but the dizzying number of famous wines he made.
Margherita Otto
Alan Manley’s Margherita Otto has an utterly traditional and singularly harmonious character, making it a must for anyone who loves Old School Barolo.
Il Marroneto
Giuseppe’s son, Alessandro, has been one of Montalcino’s staunchest defenders of tradition, employing wild yeast fermentations and long aging in large, neutral wood. The estate’s Madonna delle Grazie cuvée – sourced from a north-facing parcel of 40+-year-old vines – has become one of Italy’s most collectible wines.
Cantina Bartolo Mascarello
Until his death in 2005, Bartolo Mascarello was a towering figure in Barolo, producing some of the region’s most prized wines. Today, Maria Teresa Mascarello continues to build on her father’s legacy.
Giuseppe Mascarello
Mauro Mascarello and his legendary Barolo Monprivato represent the culmination of more than 130 years of great Giuseppe Mascarello wines.
Mastroberardino
Taurasi is finally receiving widespread recognition as one of Italy’s greatest red wines, thanks to Mastroberardino, the greatest producer and champion of this ancient Campanian wine.
Montepeloso
Through unstinting effort and deep passion, Fabio Chiarelotto has made his Tuscan estate, Montepeloso, a beacon for those who prize purity, refinement and vineyard expression in wine.
Nervi-Conterno
With its hallowed vineyards, Roberto Conterno found the chance to own Nervi irresistible. It was as he told Monica Larner: “If you love Nebbiolo, that means you love all the areas where Nebbiolo grows.” Founded in 1906, Nervi is the oldest cantina in Gattinara. It has holdings in the appellation’s two greatest crus—Molsino and Valferana—as well as the top sites of Garavoglie and Cassace.
Elio Perrone
The precocious appeal of Stefano Perrone’s Moscato can cause people to overlook their subtlety and finesse. His Moscatos, Barberas, and the rose “Bigaro” find a striking balance between accessibility and seriousness.
Agostina Pieri
Francesco Monaci’s warm, south-facing vineyard yields wine that are unmistakably from Montalcino, yet also possess a warmth and youthful generosity often lacking at the zone’s more “severe” addresses.
Produttori
It finally happened: the world has awakened to one of its greatest wine treasures, the Produttori del Barbaresco. Since 1958, the Produttori has been the reference point for classic Barbaresco. And since their launching in 1967, the Produttori’s Riservas have been the defining expressions of Rabajà, Asili, Ovello and Barbaresco’s other noble vineyards.
Giuseppe Quintarelli
Of Italy’s most sought-after blue chips, few are as coveted as the masterpieces of the late Giuseppe Quintarelli. His legendary Amarone has often been held up as the Valpolicella region’s ultimate expression of tradition. Yet, over his long career Bepi was as brilliantly innovative as he was an old-school champion.
Giuseppe Rinaldi
Since taking over the Giuseppe Rinaldi estate in 1993, Beppe Rinaldi has taken the wines to new heights, crafting some of Barolo’s finest traditional wines.
Gianfranco Soldera
Gianfranco Soldera pioneered Brunello’s modern era, founding his Case Basse estate in 1972. Today, virtually every Brunello or Brunello Riserva he’s ever made is considered a Holy Grail wine.
Terre Porziane
Antonio Pulcini stands nearly alone in holding on to his greatest white wine from his best vineyard, The Colle Gaio Old White, for 20 to 25 years before selling it, not only in sublime condition but at astonishingly low prices.
Trediberri Barolo
Nicola Oberto, along with his father and business partner, is today championing the resurgence of traditional Barolo winemaking in the town of La Morra.
Valentini
This extraordinary wine became legendary due to the intensity, complexity and ageworthiness reported by those lucky enough to have tasted it. And the legend was only fueled by its extreme rarity and Valentini’s reluctance to talk about how he made it.
Vallana
What was true then is still so today: for seventy-five years the name Antonio Vallana has meant great Piemontese Nebbiolo.
