Cappellano is a winery that represents all we believe in when it comes to the greatest wine. They care for their vineyards in the best way possible. They make wines that can age, but are also tasty enough to drink young. They don’t do flashy marketing campaigns—in fact, they may not even have a telephone. Their wines taste like they’re made by someone who has a point of view rather than someone who plays to what’s popular. Above all, their wines are just delicious. We only have 15 bottles of this, but we wanted to share them with you. Whatever’s left is coming home with us.

Here's what you should know about it:

Cappellano is both a natural winemaker and classic one too.
They invented the after-dinner wine Chinato.
Their vineyards are based in one of Barolo’s best parts: Serralunga d’Alba.
2006 is a rich and powerful vintage.

Things we actually said...

“I started drinking wine well before I was legally allowed to. My interest then skewed more toward the fact that it got me drunk than it being something to learn about. At age 21, I somehow scored an appointment at Cappellano. In hindsight, I wasn’t worthy of that access, but I do believe that trying this wine opened my eyes to the fact that the wine industry could be pretty great. They're just one of those producers even the most opinionated connoisseur tips their hat to. Their wine is rustic and smooth, cool and aristocratic—and just delicious."

—Grant Reynolds, Founder of Parcelle Wine

As sommeliers, we often get asked, "What’s the best wine on the list?"

Rarely would we ever tell the truth. We wanted to hoard them for ourselves, or stash them away to drink with our sommelier friends in-the-know. Well, Parcelle Picks is our big reveal. This is our selection of the hard-to-find, ready-to-drink, sometimes well known, maybe obscure, and always limited wines we love most.
