Masseto Massetino 2023
Toscana IGT
July 28, 2026 - Massetino is a wine crafted from the younger vines of Masseto, one of the finest Merlot plots on the planet. This wine is known for its crispness, vibrant color, and persistent bouquet. It's mostly Merlot with a touch of Cabernet Franc, providing lift and complexity as the youthful tannins evolve on the palate.

Sandrone Sibi Et Paucis Le Vigne Barolo 2015
Barolo
July 28, 2026 - Sibi et Paucis, Latin for "for oneself and for a few," is Sandrone's library selection: a small portion of each vintage held back under optimal cellar conditions until the winery determines it is ready. The seal on the label marks that journey. Barolo Le Vigne Sibi et Paucis is more tannic and structured than its sibling ALESTE, revealing classic Barolo character over time: black cherry, tar, violets, and remarkable freshness and length.
Wine Advocate - January 30, 2025 "The Luciano Sandrone 2015 Barolo Le Vigne Sibi et Paucis delivers a good sense of freshness and brightness. It offers a very good read of the vintage with an open-knit…
Wine Spectator - August 06, 2025 "This red is settling into a nice groove, with the cut grass, freshly mown hay and red fruit character of the vintage. Cherry, raspberry, iron and spice flavors are fused…
Champagne Ayala Rosé Majeur
Champagne
July 28, 2026 - Rosé Majeur is the perfect embodiment of the originality and finesse of the House’s wines. Made predominantly from Chardonnay, it is crafted with the addition of a small proportion of Pinot Noir from the best crus of the Montagne de Reims. A low dosage enables it to express the House style, both feminine and generous, with great elegance. The very high proportion of Chardonnay and the aging process result in a Champagne with remarkable finesse. It ages on the lees for three years, which is more than twice that is required by the appellation.
Wine Spectator - November 30, 2025 "Fresh and harmonious, this well-tailored rosé Champagne integrates a rich vein of chalky minerality and finely honed acidity with the raw silk–like mousse and a lovely range of crunchy white…

This cuvée achieves balance and finesse through low dosage, stainless-steel vinification, and three years of aging on lees.
