An Italian red that you can serve lightly chilled during the hot summer season, this is a recommendation from Wainscott Main, the only sommelier-led retail wine concept in the Hamptons. 

If you’re after a red that captures both finesse and regional charm, meet the 2022 ‘Baluma’ Langhe Nebbiolo ($30).

Cultivated in the Monforte d’Alba hills, Diego Conterno’s Nebbiolo is passion articulated through terroir. Pouring a deep ruby, it unfurls violet, strawberry, and cherry aromas — bright, floral, and inviting. On the palate, mature fruit meets balanced tannins for a vibrant finish that lingers kindly.

Inside Tip 🪄

Just don’t overchill — too cold and you’ll mute its aromatics and structure. Stick it in the fridge for 30–40 minutes before serving, and you're good to go.
