Ai Mercanti

Pricing is in euros, running from 6 to 2,700 euros with a median of 60 euros, so there is plenty of room to drink well without spending much. The 706 bottle list leans red at 268 bottles against 145 white, with a large 195 bottle other category and 72 Champagne and sparkling selections. The producer bench runs deep into Italian regional names, with Barolo from Camerano, Barbacarlo from the Oltrepo Pavese area, Nanni Cope's pallagrello nero, Fonterenza Brunello di Montalcino, Le Piane Boca, and Aia Vecchia pinot nero all appearing in multiples. Fourteen glass pours give some flexibility, but this reads as a bottle list built for guests who want to explore lesser known Italian growers.
