Casa D'Angelo
This is a big Italian anchored cellar, north of 1,500 wines built around Tuscany and Piedmont, with deep verticals of Brunello, Super Tuscans, and Barolo behind producers like Gaja, Casanova di Neri, Tenuta dell'Ornellaia, and Quintarelli. Reds dominate hard, more than 800 of them, and the second pillar is California Cabernet and a respectable run of California Pinot Noir, so when a guest wants a domestic alternative to the Italians you have it. Depth at the top end is real, all the way to Romanee Conti and Petrus in the five figures, but the median sits around $275 and bottles start at $15, so you can pour honestly across budgets. The glass program runs 55 selections, enough to cover most tables without opening big bottles. This list rewards the Italophile and the steakhouse Cabernet drinker most, so steer guests toward Tuscany and Piedmont and lean on the by the glass list when they want to explore.
