An under the radar producer, Pelassa may be the greatest Barolo that most people have never heard of! Founded in 1960, the family always made and bottled wine under the Pelassa name, however the Italian market for their Barolo was so strong, the wines never left Italy. It wasn't until sons Daniele and Davide took over operations, that Pelassa began exporting. Being under the radar keeps prices down, which explains why you can get a Tre Bicchieri, Gold Medal Award Winning, 93 Point Barolo for Under $40! It's a throwback to when great Barolo tasted like 1er Cru Burgundy, with ripe notes of freshly picked raspberries. Suave and juicy, with ample fruit and well integrated tannins. A lovely Barolo that will drink well today, and for the next 10-15 years.

James Suckling: 92 Points

"Mineral nose with dried grapefruit and orange citrus on the nose. Firm tannins remind you of the Barolo identity, but there is nothing chewy here. Creamy and well-honed with a subtle cranberry and mineral note to the finish. Drink now or hold." James Suckling, 92 Points
