Davide Fregonese Horizontal Barolo Four-Pack 2019
Davide Fregonese makes Barolo from two of Serralunga d’Alba’s most coveted single vineyards – Cerretta and Prapò. They sit right next to each other on the hillside, but they produce completely different wines. And today, I’m offering a horizontal (side-by-side from the same vintage) from the iconic 2019 vintage, with some massive scores to boot.
Each Barolo Horizontal Four-Pack includes the following:
(2 Btls.) Davide Fregonese Barolo Cerretta 2019 – 97 Pts, JS
(2 Btls.) Davide Fregonese Barolo Prapò 2019 – 96 Pts, JS
Original price was: $350.00.$309.00Current price is: $309.00.

97 Points, James Suckling – Cerretta
Bright telltale ruby color introduces a complex and layered aromatic profile of earthy minerality, Parma violets, rhubarb root, red currants and wild strawberries. Graceful and bracing palate with firm, velvety and refined tannins, crisp integrated acidity and great balance in the finish, which is polished and classy. Best after 10 years.
96 Points, James Suckling – Prapo
Potpourri and bitter oranges dominate this complex wine. It’s bright ruby in the glass, with sweet spices and graceful depth. Firm on the palate with dusty yet ripe tannins, integrated delicate acidity and an amazing finish. Grace and power are well managed here. Long finish with rhubarb notes. Drinkable now, but best from 2025.
Davide Fregonese is a superstar in the making. You can ask anyone in Piedmont. He had a successful career in finance in Turin before pursuing his true passion: creating high-quality Italian wines. He named his winery Bugia Nen – Piedmontese dialect for “don’t cease ground” – symbolizing resilience and determination. And when two tiny 0.6-hectare plots came up for sale in Cerretta and Prapò, he jumped on them.
He’s lucky, he gets to make wines from two of the most prestigious vineyard sites in all of Barolo, and he works alongside his dear friend Davide Rosso (of Giovanni Rosso fame) to craft wines of immense depth and longevity.
