Le Macchiole Scrio 2021
Toscana IGT
March 12, 2026 - First produced in 1994, Scrio is a unique interpretation, and one of the very few Syrahs produced in Bolgheri, with an aromatic profile that tends more toward the spicy notes of the variety than the balsamic ones, and has acidity and freshness on the palate. The production numbers are tiny, never exceeding 5,000 bottles.

Sandrone Barbera d’Alba 2022
Barbera d'Alba
March 11, 2026 - Barbera is a delicate and demanding grape variety. A meticulous search in the area for the very best soils, agronomical decisions and particular attention to vinification enable Sandrone to show the very best qualities of this wine. Barbera d’Alba is made to be a medium-weight wine that will drink well for a decade. It shows delicious and plump berry and black fruits. As Barbera possesses almost no natural tannins, the use of tonneaux gives the wine some much-needed structure. It is a perfect match with rich dishes as the bright acidity keeps it from being too heavy.
