Highlights

Monte Maletto Sole e Roccia Carema Nebbiolo 2022 comes from the steep, high-elevation Carema DOC in northern Piedmont, where Nebbiolo vines are hand cultivated on schist-laden, sandy glacial soils. It offers hints of dried cherry, crushed leaves, iron and game; deceptively light in body yet with serious punch, plus an attractive texture and tannins that are still a bit raw today.

Monte Maletto Battito del Maletto Nebbiolo Canavese 2023

In the foothills of the Alps, way up in the north of Piedmont, sits the “heroic” Carema DOC, and at just 39 acres of vines, it’s one of Italy’s smallest wine regions. This steeply pitched, high-elevation area requires hand cultivation of its mostly Nebbiolo vines, so the winemakers who gravitate to this small but mighty region are special indeed. Gian Marco is one of those special people, and his five-acre Monte Maletto estate, founded in 2015, is on the trajectory to cult status. Before becoming a winemaker, Gian served as a sommelier to many high-profile, Michelin-star restaurants, so it follows that he crafts his wines to transmit his schist-laden, sandy glacial terroir. In addition to growing Nebbiolo and Erbaluce on his own lands, Gian rents plots in nearby Canavese for a more expanded Monte Maletto line. 

The 2023 Nebbiolo Battito del Maletto is laced with hints of dried cherry, crushed leaves, iron and game. Deceptively light in body, the Nebbiolo packs a pretty serious punch. The 2023 is very attractive texturally... Give this a year or two in bottle, as the tannins are a bit raw today.

Frequently Asked Questions

This is paramount to our business. We source our products exclusively from reputable, licensed importers, distributors, wine brokers, and world-renowned auction houses such as Sotheby's and Christie's. We also acquire bottles from select private collections where clear and documented provenance is provided, ensuring a verifiable history for our finest items.

Yes, in most cases, the photograph on the product page is of the specific bottle for sale. If we have multiple quantities of the same item, the photo represents the general condition of all bottles under that SKU. Any significant condition issues, such as low ullage or bin-stained labels, will be clearly noted in the product description. We are happy to provide additional high-resolution images upon request-please contact us.

We use premium, industry-standard materials to protect every shipment. Depending on the bottle and destination, we use a combination of insulated foam box inserts, custom-fit air column bags, and heavy-weight cardboard shippers to prevent damage.

For wine, we recommend storing bottles on their side in a dark, vibration-free environment with good humidity, ideally between 55-60°F. Spirits like whiskey should be stored upright in a cool, dark place (60-70°F) away from direct sunlight to preserve their quality.
