About this Wine
Timorasso is Piemonte's most compelling native white — a grape capable of producing structured, textured wines of real depth and aging potential, for decades overlooked in favour of international varieties, and now being rediscovered by sommeliers across Italy and beyond. L'Autin's certified organic expression from Mount Monviso altitude shows ripe pear, hazelnut, white mineral, and a lanolin richness on the palate, with an unusually long and saline finish that rewards the table rather than the aperitif. One of the most compelling Italian whites entering the U.S. market — essential for fine dining programmes, serious collectors, and any account building a credible Italian white wine narrative.

L'Autin Bonarda
Red
Mount Monviso · Piemonte Alps
Bonarda near Mount Monviso is produced by an ancient method of secondary fermentation that has defined alpine red wine culture in this corner of the Piemonte Alps for centuries — low in alcohol, lightly frizzante, deeply coloured, and built to be enjoyed cool. L'Autin's certified organic expression delivers fresh dark cherry, blackberry, wild violet, and a vivid frizzante texture that makes it ideal at the aperitif hour alongside cured meats and young cheeses. A vivid departure from the serious structured reds that dominate the Piemonte narrative, and one of the most accessible and crowd-pleasing wines in the portfolio.
L'Autin Ramìe
Red
Mount Monviso · Piemonte Alps
Ramìe is one of the rarest indigenous grapes in all of Piemonte — a near-extinct alpine variety cultivated on the high-altitude mineral soils below Mount Monviso, where certified organic farming and severe terrain shape wines of stark individuality that simply cannot be replicated anywhere else in Italy. L'Autin's expression is medium-bodied and poised: dried alpine herb, red cherry, a floral lift, and an earthy mineral character that speaks only of ancient, rare-breed viticulture at altitude. For wine-literate accounts and sommeliers who prioritise genuine rarity, provenance, and the story no other importer currently brings to their market.

Stroppiana Barolo "Leonardo"
Barolo DOCG
Barolo
La Morra · Bussia · Verduno · Piemonte
From La Morra — the most aromatic and perfumed subzone of Barolo — this Nebbiolo opens with dried rose, violet, and wild cherry, deepening into iron, dried herb, and a mineral thread on a palate framed by firm but refined tannins. Lively acidity and a lingering finish give it the structure to reward 5–10 years of cellaring, while its elegant profile and accessible price make it equally suited to the by-the-glass programme today.
Stroppiana Barbera d'Alba
Barbera d'Alba DOC
Barbera
La Morra · Bussia · Verduno · Piemonte
Barbera d'Alba is Piemonte's everyday red — and in Stroppiana's hands it punches well above its price point. Bright natural acidity lifts ripe dark cherry and fresh plum, with a touch of oak integration that rounds the mid-palate without masking the grape's vivacity. Versatile enough for the glass programme and honest enough for the wine list alongside pasta, pizza, and charcuterie.
Stroppiana Barolo Bussia
Barolo Bussia Cru
Barolo
La Morra · Bussia · Verduno · Piemonte
Bussia is one of the most celebrated crus in all of Barolo — a southeast-facing subzone in Monforte d'Alba prized for wines of density, depth, and uncommon longevity. This single-vineyard expression shows dried rose, tobacco, licorice, and dark cherry, with iron and tar minerality delivering the firm, gripping tannin structure that defines great Bussia. Best approached at 7–12 years; an essential cellar candidate at its price point, with 93-point recognition from James Suckling.
