Wine List Milan – Ristorante Al Mercante in Piazza Pio XI

Claudio Romanini, our sommelier, curates the wine list Milan at Ristorante Al Mercante. He draws on years of experience in Milan’s dining scene. In particular, he selects every label by favouring quality producers and outstanding terroirs. Here in Via Cesare Cantù 7, corner of Piazza Pio XI, wine plays an essential role in every meal. Above all, it tells the story of Italy’s finest wineries.

Our Wine Selection

First, our selection includes great Piedmontese reds such as Barolo, Barbaresco and Barbera d’Asti. In addition, we offer Tuscan reds like Brunello di Montalcino and Chianti Classico Riserva. Among full-bodied whites, you will find Soave, Vermentino di Sardegna and Fiano d’Avellino. Furthermore, sparkling wine lovers can enjoy our Franciacorta DOCG in Brut, Satèn and Rosé.

You will also find Southern Italian gems like Primitivo di Manduria, Nero d’Avola and Aglianico del Vulture. Meanwhile, a range of international labels awaits those who wish to explore beyond Italy. We update the list every season to follow new vintages.

Suggested Wine Pairings

Claudio guides you toward the perfect pairing for every dish. For example, he matches classic Milanese starters, saffron risotto or fish courses with the ideal wine. Moreover, he always suggests two options per course — one by the glass and one by the bottle. As a result, you enjoy a flexible experience without compromise.
