Sparkling ruby violet, smells exciting, lots of rich fruit, plus fine spices. Plump on the palate, of cassis and dark cherries, underpinned with fine tannin, very clear and straightforward. SUPERIORE.DE

"L'Atto" - "The deed". The names of Gerardo Giuratrabocchetti's wines are reminiscent of his father's world as a notary.

Atto exudes a bouquet of crushed purple candy, freshly cut plums and a hint of musk. It is soft and fleshy in style, while silky textures reveal an opulent display of ripe black fruits and sweet herbal notes on the palate. Spiced blackberries mingle with hints of ginger biscuits and violet-coloured flowers as it finishes long. There's plenty of immediate pleasure here, but not at the expense of balance. SUPERIORE.DE

Dark ruby red colour. Aromas of dark cherry, blueberry, milk chocolate and pepper are enhanced by intense violet notes. Smooth, concentrated and delicately sweet on the palate, with lush red fruit and dark berry flavours. The medium-long finish has strong but well-integrated tannins and good acidity. A very impressive entry-level wine. SUPERIORE.DE

"Ripe dark and blue fruit, blue flowers, candied orange peel and spices on the nose. Medium- to full-bodied, smooth and succulent, slightly jammy but well formed and focused, with a seamless tannin structure." James Suckling

Emilio Rotolo's Refosco dal Peduncolo Rosso draws you into the glass with its deep, peppery black raspberry flavours, complemented by pretty violet and lavender tones. Wrapping the palate in a cloak of dark, ripe, textured fruit, it is incredibly elegant and polished, but also tangy. A layer of sweet tannins frames the expression and caresses the cheeks, while citrus fruit and a hint of spice linger. This is a very nice wine that will benefit from a slight chill. SUPERIORE.DE

"Spiced tobacco leaves and dried black cherry aromas lift from the glass of this spicy red. Inviting on the palate with smokiness that adds character to the black plum and cassis flavors to craft rich and intriguing wines with fine tannins on the finish." Wine Enthusiast

This Rosso is made from mainly Dolcetto and Barbera grapes and some Nebbiolo from various vineyards in the hills of the Langhe. Cherry-red in colour with violet reflections, it has a vinous fruit aroma, a spicy, full-bodied flavour and a pleasant acidity. SUPERIORE.DE

Sofi Rosso is a cuvée made mainly from Lagrein and a small proportion of Merlot from vineyards between 230 and 350 metres above sea level. It has a strong garnet red colour and aromas reminiscent of ripe red fruit and violets. Fruity and fleshy on the palate, with spicy notes on the finish that make it easy to drink. SUPERIORE.DE

"Reductive and vinous yet relatively simple, with ripe red fruit. It’s crunchy and easy drinking, with a light to medium body and refreshing acidity allied to chewy tannins that are a bit rustic." James Suckling

Light yellow in colour, fine nutty and buttery notes on the nose with juicy fruit such as mango and apple. Fresh and elegantly textured on the palate. A harmonious, versatile Chardonnay with a clean, yellow apple finish. SUPERIORE.DE

"A sparkling, tangy Chardonnay that tastes a little more like Pinot Blanc than Chardonnay. It's fresh, apple-flavoured, bright with green pears and spring blossom and sweet with satsuma acidity. Like a crisp white envelope, neatly pressed, containing a bright yellow card with sunshine and flowers." Jancis Robinson

"An attractive chardonnay with sliced cooked apples, lemon rind and peach stones. Medium-bodied with lovely density and freshness and a bright, tangy finish. Fresh, clean and direct." James Suckling

Classic, clean bouquet with notes of blackcurrant and blackberry. Convinces on the palate with power, clarity and lots of fresh fruit. SUPERIORE.DE

Inarno is a joint project of friendly neighbouring winemakers in the region who supply the grapes and Petrolo who do the artisanal and authentic vinification. A traditionally crafted yet modern, fresh Sangiovese full of beauty and generosity in its aromatics and richness. SUPERIORE.DE

S. Maddalena Classico "Huck am Bach" is a pretty, feminine wine with a lot of character and South Tyrolean personality. Small red berries, hints of sweet spices and flowers on the nose, supple tannins, round and fruity flavour and very appealing length. SUPERIORE.DE

"Reductive nose with aromas of spicy flavours, pomegranates and a hint of milk. There is complexity here. The attack is dense and velvety, with a medium body, crisp acidity and ripe tannins." James Suckling

Ramitello impresses with an immense aroma of intense red fruit flavours and delicate balsamic notes. The taste is warm and full, with rich fruit tones spiced with a hint of tobacco, coffee and liquorice. SUPERIORE.DE

"Very dark ruby red with garnet reflections and a violet-coloured core. Very ripe blackberry and blueberry fruit on the nose, followed by earthy notes, eucalyptus and coffee powder. The palate shows great balance and equilibrium, the long final is very fruit-driven, the grippy tannins full of tension." Falstaff

"A concentrated, tasty red wine with aromas and flavours of mulberry, laurel, sage and black bean. It is full-bodied, dark fruity and balanced with medium-bodied tannins." James Suckling

Fresh ruby red colour with violet reflections. Refined aroma of rose petals, roasted herbs, elderberry and small red berries. Fleshy, drinky flavour of stewed fruit, very fresh and supple tannins. Long finish with great Italian personality. SUPERIORE.DE

"Aromatic and fruity, this red exhibits blackberry, raspberry and violet flavors, with vibrant acidity and a light coating of tannins on the lingering finish." Wine Spectator

"Aromas of smoky black fruits and cherries. Full of primary fruit with bright acidity, very balanced, good texture with mouth-filling flavours of bitter plums. Excellent drinkability." Decanter

"Notes of fresh raspberries and spiced plums with liquorice, aniseed and dried flowers. Medium-bodied, smooth and supple with a silky finish. Pleasant and attractive." James Suckling

Zecca's Primitivo from old vineyards is characterised by elegance and refinement, without the outrageous fullness of extract often found in Puglia. The bouquet opens with smoked spices, sausage, tobacco and candied fruit. Beautiful mineral nuances on the palate, a fine fruity texture and silky, extract-sweet tannins. SUPERIORE.DE

Our price-performance favourite at a high level: pure and juicy Primitivo with a shimmering purple, dark ruby red colour and the scent of cherries soaked in alcohol, chocolate and hazelnut. The full, warm and well-structured flavour has good length and pleasing, slightly sweet tannins. SUPERIORE.DE

"Ruby red with brightening edges. Forest berries and pomegranate on the nose, some dried thyme and rooibos. Initially light-footed on the palate, with fresh fruit and good juiciness, showing grippy tannins and fine spice on the finish." Falstaff

The "I Giganti" line, with its three wines, represents Contini's top collection. In white, rosé and red, they pay homage to the large statues that were discovered in the 1970s in the archaeological site of Mont'e Prama, just 2 km from the Cabras pond. They were farmers working the fields with their ploughs, bringing to light the precious treasures of the past. These sandstone figures were called "giants" because of their considerable size. They represent brave warriors, symbols of strength and courage.

I Giganti Rosa is an exciting cuvée of Nieddera and Cannonau. Delicate, elegant pink with peach-coloured reflections. Delicate and fruity on the nose, reminiscent of fresh roses with notes of citrus and raspberries. Taut and firm on the palate, very decisive with fresh, salty citrus notes and respectable persistence. SUPERIORE.DE

The straw-yellow Somereto has a fruity, intense aroma of ripe banana and other tropical fruits. On the palate, it has a smooth texture, rich and persistent, with pleasant acidity. A modern cosmopolitan with an exotic touch, beautiful freshness, straightforwardness and strength. SUPERIORE.DE

"The Somereto is still somewhat restrained with a fine bouquet; with air, notes of apricot, quince and orange are expressed. On the palate, it has a dense but elegant melting texture that shows a sensitive bâtonnage, supported by the juicy freshness and still has rough edges." Weinwisser

"Fresh and focused, with well-cut acidity and a subtle chalkiness working nicely with flavors of yellow apple, pear, white blossoms and pickled ginger, plus a touch of blanched almond." Wine Spectator

Lagrein Grieser with warm aromas and a ripe blackberry nose and notes of lilac and cocoa. Fine and tart on the palate, beautifully balanced fruit and a harmonious finish. The differences in temperature between day and night sharpen the profile of this classic wine with precision and structure every year. SUPERIORE.DE

A Vermentino di Gallura with a strong personality from the DOCG of the same name, which is located in Sardinia between the provinces of Sassari and Nuoro. A complex, soft white wine with an aroma of tropical fruits that is unrivalled in its price range. Fresh on the palate, with a fine minerality and good persistence. A hint of tension lingers on the finish, reminiscent of sour citrus fruits and rosemary. Branu is full of energy and crisp Vermentino fruit. SUPERIORE.DE

"Light, bright lemon yellow colour. Floral bouquet in the first nose, later some pear and white pepper. Juicy on the palate with clear fruit sweetness, green acidity, medium-long final." Falstaff

"On the nose, there are nutty and herbal aromas, but also lively notes of narcissus and citrus fruits. All these elements reappear on the palate, while a pinch of salt and white pepper and a lively acidity provide a fresh, crackling sensation." Wine Enthusiast

This noble white displays an intriguing, lingering aroma and flavour, grandly exuding its aromas of banana and pineapple, plus a delicate floral note. Its fine, fresh body provides a pleasant, long-lasting sweetness and an animating drinking flow. SUPERIORE.DE
