Cappellano 1996 Barbera (Barbera d'Alba)
- $17
Good red-cherry aromas, with some intriguing earthy, gamy notes. Red plum and sour-cherry flavors; a zingy mouthfeel. Closes with cherry and licorice. A classically proportioned, very good food wine, especially if you don’t mind the gamy element up front.

Cappellano 1994 Nebbiolo (Barolo)
- $40
At first this smells a bit gassy, and then earthy, raisiny aromas take over. Fairly light-looking in the glass, but quite soft and full on the tongue. Seems to be getting there in terms of maturity; it has cherry, cigar, chocolate and coffee flavors, and dissipating but drying tannins. Remains slightly raisiny at all points, and is never very flashy.
