Alessandro Castellini’s vision of Valpolicella calls for aromatically driven wines, filled with lively fruit and fresh vibrancy with little oak influence. Friend and winemaker, Alessandro Castellani is famous among Nicholas Wines clients for his blockbuster Amarone, a quintessential Saturday nighter. And rightly so, but Alessandro’s Tuesday nighter is just as impressive.
His 2017 Valpolicella Classico is elegant, with aromas and flavors of spicy raspberries and black cherries. It’s aromatically complex, with fine aromas of blackberries, anise and Asian spices. It is a wine for pizza, fresh, fruity and vibrant, working just as well with the sausage, kale and vinegar pepper pizza as it does with the classic Margherita. Be sure to check it out on your next pizza night.
This blend of Corvina, Rondinella and Molinara is a great choice for a ‘house wine’, as it pairs quite well with a variety of food, from pizza to grilled meat to roasted poultry.

Chad’s 2020 McKinley Springs Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon is drop dead gorgeous and actually makes zero sense at all at this price. Dark purple to the rim with aromas of black fruits, violets, creme de cassis and a hint of spice. On the palate, full-bodied, round and juicy with elegance and the gorgeous, pure fruit– red and black currants, blackberries and a touch of sweet tobacco. It’s a delicious bottle of Cab.
Made by Bo and Heidi Barrett’s rising superstar daughter, Chelsea, this Right Bank ode is a gorgeous Bordeaux blend that leads with dark fruits like black cherry and plum with clove, hints of vanilla and hint of nutmeg. It’s a very round, plush mouthfeel with smooth, silky tannins that expertly support the wine along with a rich, dark-fruited finish that steals the show.
Fresh off its feature as one of Wine Spectator’s ‘Exciting California Values Under $25’, winemaker Matt Cline looks to stay hot with his release of the 2019 Contra Costa Zinfandel. This one is a beauty crafted off old-vines that are now between 110-140 years in age. There’s a ton of darker fruits that drive this one with a dusting of baking spice. The fruit is pure, fresh and long making it both delicious on its own or terrific with a burger, BBQ ribs, or grilled leg of lamb. Crazy cheap for what is in the bottle, load up!
94 Points, James Suckling – 94 Points, Jeb Dunnuck – 93 Points, Wine Spectator
The 2016 Val di Suga Brunello is spectacular– easily one of the best 2016s that I’ve been able to taste. Armed with vineyards in the top three spots of Montalcino, Val di Suga blends elements of each into their flagship Brunellos– continuously making some of the most interesting Sangiovese in the region. Critics always love them, and in 2016s, it is no surprise that trend continues. Double 94-point scores from both Jeb Dunnuck and Italian expert, James Suckling with Wine Spectator joining in on the fun with a 93-point review of their own.
