Madoro is an elegant cuvée of dried grapes of Cabernet Sauvignon and Marzemino. Overwhelming bouquet with intense tones of ripe and dried fruits, nuts and almonds. Full-bodied on the palate with an exceedingly powerful body, a fine-nerved structure and a long finish. A beautiful nectar that matured for 13 months in barriques. SUPERIORE.DE

Más de Fer is made from selected grapes from the Col de Fer and San Gallo hills. An exquisite cru that smells of meadow flowers and, with its pronounced fruitiness and delicate citrus acidity, is the ideal accompaniment from amuse-gueule to dessert. SUPERIORE.DE

"Bright straw yellow with an olive-green hue and small, persistent bubbles. Mango and orange zest on the nose, with notes of yellow flowers. Smooth on the palate, with good freshness and velvety fruit melt, good tension and fine pressure." Falstaff

"Typical nose of Glera , fresh and salty with floral, lemon, apple and pear notes, solid finish and spicy aftertaste." Decanter

Mediterra with its inviting aromas of paprika, redcurrant, elderberry, sage and black pepper is round and harmonious on the palate with beautiful fruit and spice. With its well-proportioned tannins and well-balanced acidity, Mediterra is a perfect accompaniment to food. SUPERIORE.DE

"Bright, dark ruby red colour. Aromas of dark plum, blueberries and black pepper on the nose. Soft and mouth-filling on the palate, with a noticeable woody note, slightly drying tannins, juicy fruit flavours and a hint of bitter almond." Falstaff

"This red is signaled by intense aromas of wild blackberry, black pepper, black olive and eucalyptus. Showing earth and underbrush accents that augment the fruity flavors, this firms up on the finish." Wine Spectator

"The 2021 Mediterra is bright, effusive and wonderfully inviting. Crushed flowers, herbs, tobacco, spice and leather meld into a core of juicy dark blue/purplish fruit. The Mediterra offers all of the immediacy of Bolgheri but with tons of freshness more than opulence. It is a hugely appealing style, especially at this level, where wines are typically intended to be drunk essentially on release." Vinous

"Dark chocolate, toasted walnuts, mocha and ripe dark berries on the nose. Medium- to full-bodied and structured with firm but very fine tannins. Shows notes of toasted cedar and bitter spices yet very delicate with integration and balance. Smooth and polished finish." James Suckling

After two years of ageing in Slavonian oak barrels, San Rocco, which is partly vinified using the appassimento or Amarone method, invites you to enjoy its warm, sincere character and rich, dark fruity and expressive flavour. SUPERIORE.DE

"Brilliant, medium ruby red with a brightening rim. Inviting bouquet of sour cherry, lavender and nutmeg. On the palate with a fine fruit melt, velvety tannin, pleasantly juicy and harmonious, right into the lingering finish." Falstaff

"This wine opens with floral and herbal aromas that pave the way for ripe raspberries and tart plums to show their freshness. The palate reveals sour red fruits with notes of dried leaves, cigar box, leather and cocoa, finishing with fine-grained tannins and balanced acidity." Wine Enthusiast

"Quite a stern, savory nose with only a hint of the mixed dried and fresh berries that open up on the palate. This is medium-bodied, tight and focused, with lightly firm tannins that do little to obstruct the fruit flow. Long finish, where the more savory elements take back the reins. Super focus and control here." James Suckling

Vigna Ochera is the new name for the popular Vigne dei Piai and is a fantastic Prosecco Spumante di Valdobbiadene Superiore from the Rive di Rolle vineyard. Rich, shimmering green-yellow in colour. A pronounced aroma of white flowers, lime and white roses, followed by quince and fresh butter. Pleasantly soft, fine bubbles, with a fresh apple flavour and invigorating taste. SUPERIORE.DE

From the 2019 vintage, the successor to the famous "Eticchetta Blu" is called "Maggiolo", derived from maggio (May) and giaggiolo (iris). The latter covers the fields in May with its flowers and floral scents, which we also find in the bouquet of this Chianti Classico. Bright ruby red in colour, fruity aromas of violets, mulberries, blackberries and blueberries as well as hints of sweet spices and cocoa. Very fresh and juicy on the palate, then the soft tannins envelop the pretty fruit centre and, together with a fine saltiness, lead into the medium-long finish. A wonderfully balanced and drinkable red wine from organic cultivation that certainly won't get old in good company. Drinking pleasure at a high level! SUPERIORE.DE

"Dense and tightly wound, exhibiting plum, cherry, boysenberry, earth and mineral flavors. Flashes of wild rosemary and thyme peek through as this persists on the long, dense finish." Wine Spectator

"The bouquet is very floral, red raspberry, nuances of nutmeg and laurel flavours. The sip is iodised, with spicy and floral memories." Luca Gardini

Our team drinks this after work, our very special insider recommendation for purists: finely balanced and very elegant Prosecco Millesimato Spumante Superiore with a shiny golden colour and green reflections. Floral bouquet, fine perlage and elegant flavours of pear and white fruit, which lend the aristocratic, dry structure a great deal of elegance and length. This is not an everyday occurrence, even in the noble DOCG Conegliano Valdobbiadene! SUPERIORE.DE

"Inviting, fresh and fruity; smooth foam, dry, subtle apple, also length, very nice." (JLF) Merum

After organic certification was granted for the 2021 vintage, the next generation of Carlettis, namely Maria Stella and Francesco, began working on a new wine. It was to be a Rosso made from 100% Prugnolo Gentile, the local variety of Sangiovese. The vines for the single vineyard at high altitude were selected from ancient clones that had already given Montepulciano wines supra-regional importance in the Middle Ages.

Fiori Rosso, the winery's new "Super Rosso", surprises with its enormous fragrance, reminiscent of blood orange, dark cherries and mulberries, violets and violet flowers. Modern, velvety and accessible on the palate, yet sophisticated - an incredibly hedonistic wine whose label is a promise of the wine's fragrance and an allusion to the fields of flowers between the organic rows of vines. A Rosso that has been allowed to sow its wild oats in big wood, with extra fine tannins and already outrageously delicious in its youth. SUPERIORE.DE

"Intense ruby red colour with a violet core. Floral on the nose, then fresh wild berries, Amarena cherry and mocha, with a peppermint aftertaste. Juicy, crisp on the palate, slightly broad tannins and dark berry fruit, accessible, somewhat vegetal on the final. Benefits from further ageing." Falstaff

Bright ruby red colour with a delicately brightening rim. Fresh, full-bodied, very enjoyable wine with the aroma of dark cherries, flowers and mint. Hearty, delicate flavour, good acidity, very lively and full of character. SUPERIORE.DE

"The Morisfarms 2019 Maremma Toscana Sangiovese Barbaspinosa shows very dense and tart fruit flavours and has a slightly green note reminiscent of blackberries or balsam herb. The wine is a little prickly with a medium-heavy palate that finishes with cedar and toasted wood. It opens up nicely when it gets more air in the glass." Wine Advocate

This masterful Vernaccia matures for 4 years in small Caratello barrels, whose natural shrinkage is never topped up so that the yeast flora, which is very characteristic of this Vernaccia, forms on the surface and not only produces the characteristic flavours, but also gives it its name.

Bright ochre yellow with golden reflections. Rich, multi-layered bouquet of apricot and orange zest, rounded off with a delicate almond flavour and warm honey notes. A wonderful texture and freshness on the palate, the primary yellow-fruity flavours are present, complemented by a fine salty vein with a mineral note on the finish. An absolute delight chilled as an aperitif or at approx. 16°C with dessert! SUPERIORE.DE

"Expressive, flor, nutty, almonds, nuts, candied apples, elegant and refined with layers of figs, raisins; long finish and pleasant grip." Decanter

Amber-coloured red. Finesse-rich notes of game, tobacco and undergrowth frame the sour cherry on the nose. Soft and ripe on the palate, very precise and pure, with medium pressure and well-proportioned tannins that flank a wonderfully long finish. 100% Sangiovese from the Marche, 100% performance from Bisci! SUPERIORE.DE

"The Rosso Villa Castiglioni 2018 begins with a dusty and delicate bouquet of dried roses, chalk dust and blackcurrants. It is silky-soft and round on the palate. Juicy acidity and peppery wild berry fruit accompany it. The wine finishes with a lovely inner sweetness and a surprising length, leaving a slight hint of fine tannin. Very beautifully made. On the palate and in the finish, the 2018 exceeds all expectations." Vinous

"This 100% Sangiovese, fermented in stainless steel, aged in used tonneaux and refined in concrete, has aromas of wild strawberries and flowers, with a hint of plum. In the mouth, it shows cherry fruit and firm tannins. Earthy, ripe and concentrated, with a long, fresh finish." Decanter

Il Nero fascinates with intense, multi-layered aromas of dark cherries, leather, liquorice and tobacco in an elegant, almost delicate frame, typical of an authentic Sangiovese. Fruity on the palate and with silky tannins at its core, the finish is long and pleasantly perfumed. SUPERIORE.DE

Re Manfredi is a masterpiece made from the indigenous Aglianico grape variety. Its label is emblazoned with the coat of arms of the ruling house of Emperor Frederick the Hohenstaufen, who was at home here. Deep ruby red in colour, fragrant, intense and multi-layered bouquet, rich fruit, robust structure, fine tannins and clean, pleasant bitter tones in harmony, very dense, elegant, spicy and complex with a subtle woody note. A wonderful, characteristic red! SUPERIORE.DE

"Dark shimmering ruby red with a brightening rim. Deep and powerful nose of blackberry jelly, roasted coffee and dark chocolate. Shows a polished, fruity-sweet attack, then with dominant, grippy tannins." Falstaff

High-quality Trebbiano Superiore with structure and a beautiful correspondence between aroma and flavour. Convincing with fresh, spicy to sweet flavours and a crisp, fresh finish, this organically produced white wine is a joy to drink! SUPERIORE.DE

"Lush, bright gold colour. A nose of squeezed lemon and lemon pieces as well as fresh pineapple, reminiscent of fresh resin, plus sea salt and rosemary. Juicy on the palate, with pronounced fruit and well-integrated acidity, savoury, spans a beautiful arc, also slightly floral in the middle section, dry, slightly phenolic finish." Falstaff

"A dusting of autumnal spice, raw almonds and musky dried apricots create an inviting bouquet as the 2021 Trebbiano d'Abruzzo Riserva Spelt opens in the glass. There's a pretty inner sweetness up front complicated by saline minerals and tart orchard fruits. This finishes crisp and with admirable length, leaving tropical inner florals." Vinous

"An impressive Trebbiano, also from organic cultivation. Yellow plum on the nose, with a hint of wild sage and hawthorn, crisp and salty on the finish, with balsamic and fruity notes, a clear snapshot of the area's great potential." Luca Gardini
