The Enoteca dei 100 Barolo in Cologno Monzese

Off the city streets, in a working-class neighborhood of Cologno Monzese abutting the eastern ring road that almost marks the boundaries of the Lombard capital, stands among the buildings The 100 Barolo wine shop. Waiting for you at the counter you will find Tommaso Primo, Alessandro Ridolfi and Umberto Graziano who opened this wine shop with kitchen, with 45 covers, in 2000.

As for the gastronomic offerings, the idea is to propose a simple but carefully prepared cuisine, based on selected raw materials and a menu that changes once a month, following the rhythm of the seasons. Exquisite grilled Piedmontese meats such as Chateaubriand, braised beef with Barolo, or gran bollito misto in the cold season. A different risotto and soup every day. High-quality cured meats and cheeses.

Aside from the kitchen department, The Hundred Barolo Wine Shop is also a take-away wine shop and wine distribution for the catering industry. For this very reason, and the name of the venue suggests it, the real fun is to open the boundless wine list.

It is possible to find all the most representative areas of Italy, also discovering small producers that are not always easy to find. A very interesting section is devoted to Champagne and France. The real dream, however, is the section dedicated to Barolo and Barbaresco: here you can find the best MGAs of the appellations and a depth of incredible vintages, all with absolutely honest prices.

The atmosphere of neighborhood tavern helps to experience an evening in an informal and relaxed way, breaking away from a certain somewhat congealed Milanese aura. From a business lunch, to dinner with friends, to occasions with family to a quick aperitif, for an after-dinner glass of wine or buy some wine or spirits.

They are open Monday through Saturday, both lunch and dinner, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. and 6 p.m. to midnight.
