Casin del Gamba
This is a big, bottle only list of 488 selections built around sparkling wine and Italy, with Champagne alone accounting for 50 references and another deep bench of Veneto and Piemonte reds and Veneto spumante behind it. Sparkling and reds carry the most weight, roughly 102 bubbles and 118 reds, while whites lean local to the Veneto and the dessert and fortified section runs an unusually generous 33 wines. Strength sits in northern Italy and producers like Pojer & Sandri and Cantina Produttori di Terlano, with a real Burgundy presence among the foreign reds for anyone who wants to step outside Italy. Prices start around the low 70s in euros, so there are honest entry points, but understand there is no by the glass program, every pour comes from a full bottle. This list rewards a guest who wants Italian depth and is ready to commit to a bottle, especially one who drinks sparkling or wants something sweet to close.
