The Tre Pile ‘Carlin’ is a fantastic, rock-solid Nebbiolo from the heart of Bussia (a cru Barolo vineyard site) made by the formidable Italian winemaker, Carlo Ghisolfi. Carlo locked into this site back in 1985, right as Barolos were becoming the highly prized commodities they’ve become today.
Here’s the best part: the ‘Carlin’ also blends Nebbiolo from a site that’s slightly higher elevation in Torricella. Because of this, it’s not bottled as a Barolo but instead as a Langhe Nebbiolo – not cheapening the quality of the final product at all, but definitely lowering the price tag!
Tre Pile’s vineyards are located right next to the famous Aldo Conterno vineyards. This is absolutely prime Piedmont territory. This wine was kind of the first of its kind in the region as nobody was aging Nebbiolo in Slovakian Oak before Carlo, and now it is the standard practice for a lot of these wines.
This has a little bit of everything. It’s big and beautiful but also wonderfully perfumed and structured with super refined tannins.

The newly released Fiancetto Howell Mt. Cabernet is a dream – a gorgeous, elegant dark-fruited Cabernet Sauvignon that is it picks up time in the glass, unfurls its full signature of cedar laced cassis nose and mid palate of chocolate-covered cherries and savory spices. Only four palates of this (224 cases) were made off a gorgeous, sprawling high elevation spot 1500 feet above sea level. It’s full and plush and finishes fresh and oh so long. The price is crazy for Howell Mountain Cabernet but that’s what Ry Richards and Fiancetto is all about.
The 2021 Napa Valley East side Cuvee is an instant classic. From the first whiff to the moment it hits the lips, its clear that this is a fabulously concentrated, serious wine: black in color, and featuring aromas of cassis, cedar and chocolate-tinged purple fruit. The mouthfeel is plush and voluptuous with a firm, solid finish that speaks to its potential for considerable aging.
With seemingly infinite access to some of the absolute very best vineyards in the most choice AVAs in the valley, the Wagner’s set out to make Quilt– a Cabernet blend from a patchwork of the top sites in Napa (Oakville, St Helena, Atlas Peak, Coombsville, Calistoga, and Howell Mountain.) The brand new 2021 edition is a beauty – deeply concentrated, rich and a truly show stopping Cabernet. It’s a dark, hedonistic blend that combines elegance with power and pairs the two together effortlessly.
91 Points, Wine Enthusiast
Always the one with the most personality of the bunch, this is what Wine Enthusiast had to say about the 2021 release: “This extremely ripe and bold style of Pinot Noir will please those seeking such lushness. Dark in the glass, it begins with black cherry, toasty caramel and cola milk shake aromas.” The cool, coastal days and abundance of sunshine lines up perfectly for a wine that has a good natural acidic backbone, with bold fruit-forward flavors. In an easy 2021 vintage, Joe Wagner had a field day with this single-vineyard beauty.
