Sangiovese 50%, Cillegiolo 50%

A superbly structured and beautifully velvet expression of Montepulciano that is overflowing with ripe plum flavours. New oak adds smoky sandalwood aromas and an elegant framework to this outstanding full bodied southern Italian red wine.  

This wine comes from the Piana Rotaliano area in the recess of the Adige Valley, tucked between the Dolomites. This wine is neither a rosé or a red wine, but sits somewhere between the two. The Lezer manages to balance freshness, elegance and seriousness.

The climate tempered by the nearby sea and the characteristics of the karst soil give this Malvasia a personal identity and superb texture. The aging in bottle drives a straw colour and emphasises the aromatic fragrance. The palate is elegant, lively and sumptuously savoury.

An ideal match for seafood and grilled fish in particular.

Sessantanni is a full bodied, rich red from the San Marzano region. The palate is very concentrated and juicy, with powerful tannins and complex notes of tobacco and cherry. The finish offers notes of cocoa, toffee and vanilla.

Vigor is made from Sangiovese and Merlot grapes grown in the Marche hills, rolling down the Appennine mountains to the Adriatic sea. Aged for one year in oak cask. This is a very fruity wine with savoury undertones. Medium bodied on the palate with balanced acidity, Vigor is a very versatile wine.

Timorasso is one of the great white grapes of northern Italy and it nearly died out following phylloxera in the late 1800s, until it was revived in the small Colli Tortonesi DOC of Piedmonte.

Commanding Pinot Noir from the oldest winery in Italy, dating back nearly 1000 years and situated high in the foothills of the Sudtyrol in north east Italy. This structured and statuesque Pinot Noir drinks beautifully now with its velvet smooth texture and great depths of flavour with bright bold red fruit and macerated cherries, expressing Pinot Noir at its best from the highest altitude vineyard in Europe, in the very north of Italy. This winery has been making wine since 1142.

The Abbazia di Novacella winery is one of the oldest wineries in operation in the world and has been making wine for nearly 1000 years from terraced vineyards at an altitude of 600 metres above sea level in the steep hills of the Tyrol. This wine is one of our most impressive Pinot Noirs in store; known correctly as Pinot Nero.

Idda Etna Bianco is a white wine from Mount Etna, Sicily, made from the Carricante grape variety. The wine is a collaboration between Italian winemaker Angelo Gaja and grower Alberto Graci and offers real complexity with a firm texture, deep minerality and vibrant acidity. 

Nose - Notes of lemon oils, wild herbs, orange blossom, young peaches, crushed stone, wisteria, cantaloupe and marzipan.

Palate - Tropical citrus, melon, saline hints, florals, peach, passion fruit and papaya.

From the sun baked slopes of Mount Etna and a joint venture between winemakers Gaja and Graci, this is 98% Nerello Mascalese, 2% Nerello Cappuccio which is vinified in a mixture of concrete and oak vats, with a three-week maceration followed by ageing for 24 months also in concrete and oak.

"Perfumed nose of red berries, spiced cherries, hazelnuts and smoke. Medium-bodied with fine-grained tannins and bright acidity. Balanced and round with a silky texture on the mid-palate and volume on the concentrated, long finish. It really grows on the palate. Better after 2024."

This so-called ?Sardinian Sassicaia? is made by the same people who brought us the legendary Tuscan red wine. 60% Carignano, 10% Cabernet Sauvignon, 10% Cabernet Franc, 10% Merlot and 10% Syrah. This is a rich, intensely aromatic red with dark-fruit flavours and a full body. Super Sardinian anyone?

Fuoripista narrates an alternative route, a pathway out of the common, a
different perception and vision of nature. Fuoripista Pinot Grigio arises from
the cooperation of Foradori and Marco Devigili, biodynamic winegrower of
the Campo Rotaliano, and expresses the essence of a variety widely diffused
in Trentino. More than 8 months of skin contact in amphorae (tinajas from
Villarrobledo, Spain) liberates and emphasizes the delicate character of this
Pinot Grigio.
