Best Wines Under $40

Every wine in this collection is under $40 and comes from a family estate in Italy or France that we import ourselves. There's no distributor in the middle, which is why a single-vineyard Nebbiolo from Piedmont or an organically farmed Gavi lands at a price most shops reserve for mass-produced labels. We taste everything before we import, and this page only holds bottles we would drink at home ourselves. The lineup changes as vintages sell through, so if a bottle catches your eye, it may not be here next month. If you want help choosing between them, tell us what you usually drink and we'll point you to the closest match.
