Great Value Barolo


Incredible price for a Barolo!
Barolo in this price range is pretty much non-existent these days! This wine is soft and delicious, ready to pop and pour. Enjoy with some hearty pasta on one of these cold nights!

2018 Collina San Ponzio Barolo...$29.99
Toasted notes and dried herbs give savoury depth to the ripe red fruits. The dense tannic structure gives the wine a firm finish.
Rated 91/100 Decanter, 2022 World Wine Awards
Aromas of rose petal, chopped herb and tilled soil lead the nose. The savory palate offers crushed raspberry, star anise and tobacco alongside taut, refined tannins and bright acidity. Drink 2024–2033. 
Rated 90/100 Wine Enthusiast
A clean and pleasant, early drinking Barolo with fresh berries, medium body and very fine, non-impeding tannins.
Rated 90/100 James Suckling
