"Fresh and mineral Grillo with lively citrus fruit and hints of white flowers and crushed stones. Medium-bodied, clean and crisp on the palate. Lively and vertical with a flavourful finish." James Suckling

Orion is a very special Primitivo, always fresh and with remarkable persistence. Dense ruby red with a violet rim, the nose has intense aromas of ripe and fleshy red cherries, followed by spicy notes such as cinnamon and nutmeg. Powerful, smooth and very long in the mouth. Its clearly defined acid wire makes it fresh and pleasantly different from the sweet, jammy Primitivo monotony that is otherwise all too often on offer. SUPERIORE.DE

"The nose is simultaneously weighty, fresh and elegant, with aromas of black cherry, blackberry and dark chocolate, along with undertones of orange peel and stone. All of those notes reappear on a palate which is bitter, but friendly, as acid soars overhead." Wine Enthusiast

According to Aristotle, the ancient clones of the Greco vine come from Tessaglia. The most famous among them is the "Aminea Gemina Maior", from which this wine is made. Lively brilliant straw yellow and a wide, intensely fruity bouquet. Versatile fruit aromas in the harmonious taste. SUPERIORE.DE

A very inviting nose of cherries, almond flakes, a potpourri of violets and rose petals, with minimal earthy notes on the finish that add complexity. Excellently integrated perlage, juicy cherry fruit, light-footed yet complex, lingers for a long time, contemporary drinking pleasure." Falstaff

Brigaldara's Soave is a fresh, clear and very successful white wine. Aromas of ripe apples, lime zest, flowers and a delicate hint of spice. Soft and supple on the palate, very focussed on the fruit and the pleasing acidity, with notes of almonds that give it a respectable depth. Subtle notes of kiwi and citrus fruit on the pleasant finish - very successful! SUPERIORE.DE

"Sensibly under screw cap, a fair closure for this type of sharp, mineral, medium-bodied white wine. And it's very good too, albeit in a more traditional form. Orchard fruits, jasmine and a hint of tangerine peel, marking a noble bitter finish of excellent persistence. Very easy to drink. Lasting." James Suckling

A wine of refinement and enviable balance, it carries its beautiful concentration and fruitiness without fuss. SUPERIORE.DE

The Croatina grapes for this finely sparkling Oltrepò Pavese classic come from the south-west side of Cascina San Carlo at an altitude of about 250 metres. The vineyard covers 12 hectares of land composed of silt, clay and sand. Intense ruby red with violet reflections. Fresh scent of red fruits, soft, full-bodied-fruity and vinous on the palate. The fine acidity, the mousseux and the hearty-fresh fruit make this Bonarda a classic companion of rustic breads, pasta dishes with meat or risottos. SUPERIORE.DE

"The 2022 Montepulciano d'Abruzzo is remarkably pretty. It opens with a cascade of violets and lavender before giving way to crushed blackberries and a twist of sour citrus. It's soft and round with saturating wild berry fruits and inner herbal tones, taking on a peppery edge toward the close. Vibrant acidity maintains a fantastic balance as the 2022 tapers off long, potent and gently tannic. This makes for a beautiful introduction to the La Valentina house style." Vinous

"A spicy and fleshy red with aromas and flavors of blueberries, plums, mint, chocolate and paprika. It’s medium- to full-bodied with grainy tannins. Good freshness." James Suckling

As the name Sasyr suggests, this wine is a blend of Sangiovese and Syrah. Only 15 per cent of the Sangiovese matures for six months in large oak barrels, the rest comes from stainless steel. Pretty red colour with notes of blood orange, blueberries, crushed violets, dried herbs and some cedar wood. Medium body, fine tannins and a fresh, dense finish. Sasyr is a fresh and harmonious red wine for many occasions. SUPERIORE.DE

"A fruity, juicy and velvety blend of sangiovese and syrah. Notes of dark cherries, cassis, chocolate and wildflowers on the nose. Medium-bodied with fine tannins and a refined texture. Silky and delicious, with more blue fruit and flowers in the finish." James Suckling

An excellent drinking wine and also an accompaniment to typical Tuscan grilled dishes. SUPERIORE.DE

Authentic Piedmontese white wine made from Arneis grapes. Delicate aromas of flowers, flint and fruit, clean, supple, solid on the palate and wonderfully fresh in flavour thanks to the well-integrated acidity. Its lively and tangy character makes this wine an ideal accompaniment to a variety of dishes, from light salads to grilled seafood. SUPERIORE.DE

The classic among Sicilian red wines - lively and fresh like the sunny island it comes from. It has a bright ruby red colour in the glass and pampers the nose with a beautifully fruity, deep bouquet of blackberries and cherries. A clear blackcurrant flavour and almost sweetish fruit on the tongue, followed by a strong, fruity body with silky tannins on the palate. A well-balanced Nero d'Avola that is a pleasure to drink. SUPERIORE.DE

Rich ruby-violet colour, very clear and intense bouquet with strong notes of dark fruit and a hint of violets. Juicy, fresh with lots of ripe berry fruit on the palate. Round, supple and dense with a fruity, savoury final, preferably served slightly chilled. SUPERIORE.DE

Attractive bouquet of black pepper with notes of dried cherries and strawberries. Medium-bodied and floral on the palate, Sartiglia Cannonau offers a taut texture wrapped in a fine layer of bright acidity. SUPERIORE.DE

Distinctive white wine from Monferrato. The aromatic Sauvignon Blanc grape variety gives the wine its unique floral bouquet, along with some pear and apple slices, passion fruit, gooseberry and citrus fruit. Its powerful texture and racy acidity are the basis for the medium-bodied and fresh flavour. Tra Donne Sole (The Lonely Women) is named after a work by Cesare Pavese. SUPERIORE.DE

"Pale straw yellow with silvery reflections. Above-average intensity on the nose, of gooseberries, followed by fresh grass and elderberry. Smooth on the palate, delicately bitter, juicy and also fresh until the medium-long finish." Falstaff

This could be your perfect white house wine. Delicately fruity flavour of light fruits and flowers. Just as delicate and restrained on the palate, yet very delicious, with mild acidity. SUPERIORE.DE

Cervidoni, a fresh and pleasantly fruity blend of Montepulciano and Sangiovese with great drinkability, smells of herbs and dark berries. Beautifully aromatic on the palate, straightforward and with a fine, smoky flavour. SUPERIORE.DE

I Vini del Mare Belvento - this name stands for the still young project of the Moretti family, as it says which wines they harvest and press here in the Maremma, close to the sea: the wines of the sea of beautiful winds.

"According to legend, this is the sea into which Aphrodite scattered the pearls of her necklace and from which Tuscany was born. The beauty of the region makes us believe this legend! But scientifically speaking, the Belvento, the beautiful wind, is an important factor in the development of grape quality, as it is precisely this wind that ensures good ventilation of the vineyard, the cooling breeze that keeps the freshness in the grapes and makes these wines so pleasantly invigorating." Flavours and aromas are always created here from the interplay of land and sea. This is why the labels of Belvento wines depict the animal species that live on the coast, in the waters and in the nearby nature reserve.

Strong straw yellow colour with greenish reflections. On the nose, there are notes of lavender, elderflower, lemon balm and sage, framed by lemon, honeydew and tropical fruit. Soft and sensual on the palate, full of flavour and crisp like a bite of iceberg lettuce. SUPERIORE.DE

Intense, bright lemon yellow colour. It caresses the nose and palate with aromatic floral notes and yellow-fleshed fruit with traces of minty freshness. Full of energy, with vigour and expressiveness right to the finish, this clear and balanced white wine from the trendy Sicilian Grillo variety offers exemplary value. SUPERIORE.DE

"Bright, pronounced straw yellow colour. Pleasant with a delicate nose of yellow peach and white flowers, with a hint of marzipan underneath. Clear and light-footed on the palate, animating acidity, beautiful drinking flow through to the finish." Falstaff

Deep red colour, fascinating complex aroma spectrum on the nose. Dominated by the ripe berry scent, with hints of plums and tobacco. Powerful and intense on the palate, rich in extract, with juicy soft tannins. SUPERIORE.DE

"The 2020 Montepulciano d'Abruzzo Ilico opens with a burst of crushed blackberries, underbrush and ashen stone. It's silky-smooth with polished red fruits that form beneath an air of inner violet florals. This finishes long and staining yet only lightly structured with a bump of residual acidity that maintains a lovely balance." Vinous
