K&L Discovery Series: Barbera d'Alba Superiore

The K&L Discovery Series is a curated collection of wines selected by our expert buying team to spotlight what we believe are the hidden gems, overlooked vintages, and exceptional expressions worth discovering in today’s wine world. The aim of this new collection is to showcase wines that are both quintessential and exemplary representations of their region and/or vintage— and are brought to life through labels designed to educate and inspire discovery. Each bottle in the series is the product of K&L’s 49 years of deep, trusted relationships with wineries and growers, crafted in collaboration with partners we know and respect. Each wine in this series must rise above its peers, often outperforming bottles at multiples of the price.

Only those that meet this high bar make it into the lineup.

Bordeaux


A passion for Bordeaux is what got K&L started in the wine business in the first place. Since our founding in 1976, we’ve been dedicated to building one of the most comprehensive selections of Bordeaux in the U.S.—from Blue Chip collectibles to perfectly aged, affordable bottles that are ready to open tonight. We’ve traveled to Bordeaux multiple times per year over the last 30 years and have developed deep and meaningful relationships with châteaux and négociants. It’s these connections that help us bring to you the exceptional pairing of value and quality in the Bordeaux Discovery Series.
