Medium pale straw yellow in colour. Livio Felluga's Sauvignon Bianco impresses with its elegance, the typical varietal bouquet of pear and gooseberry, elderflower and garden herbs and a fascinating minerality. The flavour is soft and fruity, with a beautiful melting texture and a fresh, long finish. SUPERIORE.DE

"Bright straw yellow with a golden shimmer. Powerful, compact nose, ripe gooseberry and papaya, followed by a hint of nettle. Various citrus fruits on the palate, crisp, vibrant acidity, mouth-watering final." Falstaff

"The 2022 Sauvignon opens with an herbal tinge, as rosemary and sage give way to lemon rinds and exotic spice. This is soothingly round with cooling acidity that enlivens its depths of sour melon and citrus tones. The 2022 finishes spicy, potent and long, with a minty resonance and liquid stone hints." Vinous

"A rather restrained and noble Sauvignon with white sesame, light pears, apples and flint. Medium-bodied with a solid mid-palate and nice length. It is complex and beautiful. Real sophistication with sauvignon blanc." James Suckling

The olive groves, around 1,000 plants of the Coreggiolo variety, stand on hilly ground with excellent exposure - the most favourable conditions for this high-quality, single-varietal olive oil, which is produced organically. A wonderful addition to Mediterranean cuisine. SUPERIORE.DE

Libenter, which means "with pleasure", is an extremely refined Rosso Piceno with a broad bouquet of fruit, spices and flowers. Balanced, juicy, fresh and tangy and not only extremely typical in flavour, but also with remarkable depth and complexity. We are very fond of this high-quality red wine with its distinctive seductive qualities. SUPERIORE.DE

"This edition from 2018 offers medium fruit weight coupled to a rather austere bouquet with blackberry and prune. It ages in neutral oak (third and fourth passage), which helps keep the mouthfeel bright and the wine from feeling too extracted. There are earthy notes and a hint of savory tobacco as well." Wine Advocate

"The dark, seductive 2018 Marche Rosso Libenter draws you to the glass with a captivating blend of blackberries and dried cherries complemented by autumnal spices, hints of pencil lead and camphor. It is elegant and velvety to the touch, paired with a dense wave of mineral black fruits balanced by nuances of sour citrus, while a hint of tobacco builds towards the finish. The 2018 leaves the palate with primary concentration and sweet tannins, while hints of mocha mingle with a bitter touch of raw hazelnut on the long and lightly textured final. The Libenter 2018 is already a pleasure from start to finish, but it could do with a short stay in the cellar to develop further." Vinous

Bright, straw-yellow colour with greenish reflections. Pronounced, rich, somewhat smoky varietal aroma, fine woody spice. Clean, fruity, powerful flavour. Round, full-bodied flavour. Fresh final with a long, spicy aftertaste. For us, one of the most fascinating Pinot Gris wines in South Tyrol every year. SUPERIORE.DE

"Showing a copperish color, the Alois Lageder 2022 Pinot Grigio Porer offers an extra hint of crunchiness, thanks to some minimal white wine tannin. The aromas veer towards grape skin, apricot and poached pear, and you can almost taste the waxy bloom on the skins. This wine stands somewhere at the crossroads of a Ramato and a natural wine, stylistically speaking." Wine Advocate

"1,500 bottles and a destination yet to be determined - maybe it will be a wine just for friends." Thank you, dear Sean, for letting us be one of your friends!

Exciting, balsamic, white cuvée of Vermentino, Trebbiano and Malvasia - with a handful of Traminer and Riesling. Reductive in the nose at first, then dark yellow fruits, some smoke. In the mouth, very direct, straightforward and grippingly mineral, with crisp acidity, citrus zest and a fine-juicy yellow fruit. It lingers long in the mouth and, with its race and alpine freshness, makes you forget for a moment that this unadorned and very concise white comes from Tuscany. SUPERIORE.DE

"Intense, bright straw yellow. Intriguing nose, slightly reductive, relatively little fruit, some lemon, sage, a hint of rose petals. Gripping on the palate at first, mineral, then lively acidity, fresh, persistent, mouthwatering final." Falstaff

Here comes Surmont, the successor to Rain Riesling. As in the past, part of the grapes come from the South Tyrolean lowlands, while the other part now comes from the Valle Isarco from high and cool sites on soils of volcanic origin, which give the wine a fresher, almost alpine style.

Bright, straw-yellow colour with a slight greenish tinge. Clean, distinct, fragrant varietal aroma with fine fruity notes (peach, pear). Balanced, medium-bodied. Fresh, juicy finish. The racy acidity is harmoniously integrated into the fruit structure. A wonderful Riesling italico in a small edition. SUPERIORE.DE

What would Piedmont be without its slightly effervescent red Freisa? Normally, the Piedmontese tend to enjoy these immensely drinkable wines themselves, so that hardly any relevant quantity remains for export. The nose has an animating scent of rose petals, cinnamon and cherry, which are also found in the drink. L'Avvenata is a rather slender red, distantly reminiscent of a Nebbiolo. Its softer tannins and greater fruitiness make it a joyful companion for all occasions, even when slightly chilled. SUPERIORE.DE

"The 2019 L'Avvelenata is bright and beautifully perfumed, the 2019 is a fresh, vibrant red to drink now and over the next handful of years. The purity of the red berry fruit is compelling. Attractive floral and spice notes lend freshness throughout." Vinous

"The grapes come from the highest vineyard on our estate, in Monforte d'Alba, at an altitude of about 530 metres above sea level. Here, the climatic conditions ensure the freshness and acidity that make Riesling one of the most famous grape varieties in the world and one of our great passions." Franco Massolino

Bright in the glass, a fresh, lush nose of citrus, beeswax, sage, petrol and rock. Vertical on the palate, very tasty, with a characteristic acidity, when young the fruit predominates, with increasing maturity an impressive complexity follows. Only about 6,000 bottles were produced. SUPERIORE.DE

In this wine from Pietracupa, the aromatic grace of Fiano di Avellino is perfectly combined with the mineral power of the Montefredane soils. Citrus notes on the nose, a variety of fruit flavours on the palate, rocky minerality, complexity and an excellent structure beguile the senses. SUPERIORE.DE

"Bright straw yellow. Very fruity nose, of ripe mango and ripe peach, radiant and inviting, a hint of fresh honey. Hearty and flattering on the palate, balanced fruit-acid play, delicate pressure on the final." Falstaff

"Honeysuckle, jasmine, lemons, white pears and almonds on the nose. Medium-bodied, with crisp acidity and a creamy, dry palate with chalky notes at the end." James Suckling

Straw yellow with reddish hints. Powerful, complex aroma with late harvest character (botrytis). Tropical fruits in combination with floral and herbal scents. Powerful, opulent, full-fruity flavour with an elegant, fresh citrus tone and the typical bitter note in the successful finish. A highly elegant Demeter-certified Gewürztraminer. SUPERIORE.DE

In 1984, Count Giuseppe Tasca d'Almerita wanted to celebrate his golden wedding anniversary with his wife Franca by creating a wine that told the family story and the history of the Tenuta at the same time. The uniqueness of the grape composition shows his romantic spirit: Inzolia and Sauvignon from the Tasca selection, the selection of a vineyard in Regaleali that dates back to the end of the First World War. The use of selected yeasts from the estate's own vineyards links this wine even more inextricably with the terroir from which it comes. Fresh in its youth, the wine has an unexpected ageing potential and balances its tertiary aromas with the intensity of the fruit.

Rich straw yellow in colour with a hauntingfloral bouquet and notes of peach, exotic fruit and saffron. Then the harmonious flavour, whose wonderful substance is carried by a perfect acidity with a fine saline vein. SUPERIORE.DE

"Pungently floral, the 2021 Nozze d'Oro burst from the glass with a blend of lemony custard and wild herbs, complemented by sweet smoke and hints of mint. It’s beautifully balanced, with silken textures and opulently ripe orchard fruits carried across a stream of brisk acidity. Saline minerals add a more tactile feel toward the close. This tapers off with a tropical air of florals and sour citrus tones—long, potent and staining yet remarkably fresh." Vinous

This extremely delicate Moscato, which was christened Kabir (the Great) in Arabic so as not to be overshadowed by the far more powerful Ben Ryé, never fails to surprise and delight. Elegant and balanced, beguiling scents of melon and orange peel, aromatic balance, sweetness and freshness on the palate. A delight with intensely flavoured cheeses and shortbread with white fruits. SUPERIORE.DE

The grapes for this graceful Valpolicella Classico come from the Miniere vineyard of Bertani's Villa Novare estate, a south-western site of just 4 hectares consisting of two terraces. Bright ruby red, notes of fresh fruit, cherry, wild berries on the nose, with elegant hints of white pepper. Spicy, juicy and tasty on the palate, with remarkable persistence and great length! SUPERIORE.DE

"Young light red; reductive, fresh, fruity, peach; round, juicy, fruit deep, long, very nice." (JLF) Merum

"Juicy, crisp, light and playful, with exuberant energy running on a trail of white peppery acidity and a gentle drive of herbal tannins. Red limestone. Strawberry, mountain herbs, crushed musk and lilac. A great substitute for a Cru Beaujolais. A delicious drinking pleasure that reflects the current zeitgeist of quality fruit without dryness, tension and joyful immediacy." James Suckling

"Lively and spicy on the nose, with notes of strawberry sweets. Nervous and structured on the palate, very long and pure." Decanter

Pergolaia is mainly Sangiovese with smaller portions of Merlot and Cabernet Franc. The wine opens with a medium-bodied attack and a bright bouquet characterised by notes of cherry, wild plum, ploughed earth and pressed blue flowers. Very Mediterranean in style and with a strong personality, this red coats the palate with delicate, silky intensity. SUPERIORE.DE

"Medium ruby red with a slightly lightening rim. In the nose restrained at the beginning, then tones of ripe cherry, wild strawberry and currant, in the aftertaste hints of violets, seems slightly icy. Elegant on the palate with supple tannin, multi-layered and with a long and exciting finish." Falstaff

"Sangiovese takes the lead in this blend with Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, giving it nerve and deep cherry flavours, while the French additions absorb the touch of oak. The result is velvety, finely textured and long. You can drink this now and for up to six years while you wait for the 'grand vin' 2019 to come round. Sheer class and with bags of Italian flair." Jancis Robinson

"A lush, opulent red, featuring blackberry, blueberry, plum, violet and black pepper flavors. Dense, with well-wrought tannins that add support and bolster the lingering finish." Wine Spectator

"Black olives, iodine, salted plums and blackberries here. It’s medium-bodied with firm, creamy tannins. Lovely creaminess, with fresh, savory and saline character." James Suckling

"The bouquet opens to red and purple fruits with wild plum, dried cherry, potting soil and pressed rose. Those floral tones and mild herbal signatures are what give this wine its very Mediterranean, easy-drinking personality." Wine Advocate

Spicy, fruity notes with sweetish hints. Mild nuances of herbs and artichokes in the flavour, overall a very smooth olio that harmonises perfectly with fish and vegetable dishes. SUPERIORE.DE

Everything is just right here: Brolio Riserva is classic in its composition, in its ageing, in its overall impression from the label to the last sip. Velvety, dense ruby colour, dense nose with rich fruit, especially blackberry, some elderberry and a beautiful herbal spice. Juicy and supple on the palate, the finish is polished with fine-grained tannins and a long-lasting final. SUPERIORE.DE

"Bright ruby red colour. Dark berries on the nose, fine, spicy notes with a blood orange aftertaste. Medium structure on the palate, polished, present tannins, fresh acidity, lingering finish." Falstaff

"This Chianti Classico is a savoury version with aromas of green olive, tomato leaf, iron and tobacco clustered around a core of macerated cherry fruit. Although lean and sinewy, it is also intense and focused, with a lingering aftertaste that feels the pull of both the savoury and fruity sides." Wine Spectator

"A firm and fresh Chianti Classico with a light to medium body, sour cherries, orange peel and hints of sandalwood. Crunchy finish." James Suckling

"The 2020 Chianti Classico Riserva Brolio is a dark, brooding wine. Black cherry, licorice, sage, tobacco, incense and leather fill out the layers as this strapping Riserva shows off its imposing personality. This is nicely done." Vinous

"In the bottle with the black label, this is a very pretty, relatable and well-priced wine from Tuscany. Made with 100% Sangiovese, the 2020 Chianti Classico Riserva Brolio offers blueberry, plum and sweet spice thanks to 18 months of tonneaux aging. I especially appreciate the wine's pronounced mineral signature that gives the wine a salty or savory side, which is perfect for food pairing." Wine Advocate

"Its versatile aroma is reminiscent of redcurrants, Mediterranean maquis, peony and pepper leaf. Sip with powerful tannins, tension and juiciness, finish with a fruity-floral return." Luca Gardini

Light greenish yellow, floral aromas of flowers, tangerine and peach. Fresh and elegant on the palate, very precise, long-lasting and juicy on the finish. A multi-faceted, exotic wine with good development potential. SUPERIORE.DE

"Bright straw yellow with light greenish reflections. Very intense and persistent aroma on the nose, slightly aromatic, pleasantly fruity. Dry, fresh, balanced on the palate, with lively acidity and a velvety texture, with an excellent finish." Falstaff

"Intense straw with a green tinge. Firm, petrolly nose with apple and green peach. Full-bodied palate that comes with plenty of acidity, which gives it an edge. Apple and peach fruit on a long finish." Jancis Robinson

"The 2020 Riesling Afix emerges from the glass with an exotic blend of tropical flowers, dried citrus peel and sweet spice. On the palate, it displays a pleasant inner sweetness that combines lemon and lime with a stimulating core of salty minerality. The 2020 finishes with excellent length and tension, while the residual acids provide a fresh impression. It is very beautiful." Vinous

"An attractive white wine with sliced white peach, lime and lemon. Very tangy and lively. Medium body. Bright acidity with lots of fruit and a tangy finish. Lots of energy." James Suckling

When a wine is named after the founder and mastermind of what is probably the most famous and popular winery in the Modena region, then you should take a closer look, or even better, reach for the bottle. This exceptional sparkling wine is produced using the blanc de noirs method, i.e. a white spumante from red grapes - certainly not an everyday occurrence in the Lambrusco world.

And the result is just as special and high-class: golden in colour with greenish reflections, lively and with a fine, infinitely long-lasting perlage. Delicate white peach, flint, salt, lemon and grapefruit on the nose. The palate is crisp and vibrant with an elegant acidity, the subtle fruit sweetness opens up beautifully and its delicate mousseux gives this exceptional sparkling wine its inimitable structure. The archetype of an aperitif and simply unbeatable in its high-class, irresistible drinking flow and on a par with the great name of the founder! SUPERIORE.DE

"Bright silver with a delicate perlage. The nose initially has a slight reduction, a hint of flint, ripe lemons, cold smoke and candle wax. Precise, almost cutting on the palate, with racy acidity and a high draw, makes the tongue click." Falstaff

"This pale straw sparkler entices with ripe McIntosh apple aromas and delicate hints of lemon zest and white-flower honey. The zippy palate pops in mixed citrus notes culminating in a fresh finish accentuated by a delicate hint of green herbs, perfectly balancing the vibrant fruit notes." Wine Enthusiast

A medium-fruity olive oil with subtle nuances of flowers and fruit. The flavour has a harmonious sharpness and a fine bitter note, making it ideal for spicy meals and dressings. SUPERIORE.DE

Asso di Fiori from Braida is a fine Chardonnay late harvest. Seductive nose with aromas of meadow flowers, yellow fruits and a filigree spicy note. On the palate with great elegance and a lot of personality - absolutely up to the reputation of the famous family winery. SUPERIORE.DE

Complex of fresh red berries without being arbitrary. Excellent balance of fruit, acidity and fine tannin. Always one of Italy's great rosés - a characterful accompaniment to Mediterranean dishes and also an unforgettable pleasure on its own! SUPERIORE.DE

"The 2022 Purple Rose is silky, layered and polished. Crushed red berry fruit, mint, wild flowers and a kiss of French oak give this mid-weight Rosé lovely fleshiness and texture. This is beautifully done." Vinous

After almost two centuries, it is time to erect a "monument" to the enthusiastic grape grower Philip Mazzei (1730-1816). In the form of this single-varietal Cabernet Sauvignon, this succeeds extraordinarily well. Elegant, deep dark colour, classic aromas, complex, fruity and spicy flavour, well-proportioned tannins and acidity, taut, structured and persistent. SUPERIORE.DE

"The 2020 Philip (Cabernet Sauvignon) is a blend from vineyards in Castellina and Maremma. Rich and supple, the 2020 offers plenty of varietal character. Dark plum, menthol, liquorice and espresso are all present in this supple, resonant red. Attractive floral and spicy top notes brighten the finish." Vinous

"A bright, elegant red with cherry and blackcurrant flavours, with lively acidity and dusty tannins. Packs plenty of fruit, with hints of tobacco and wild herbs, despite the lean profile." Wine Spectator

"A multi-layered nose starts with salt and pepper, then turns earthy, herbal and woody before finishing with black cherries and blackberries. On the palate, a hint of earth keeps the freshness of the berries in check before a swirling mocha finish ties everything up with a bow. Tannins and acidity are harmonious throughout." Wine Enthusiast

"This is aromatic with blueberries and black cherries, as well as hints of blue flowers, spices, dark chocolate and crushed stones. Full-bodied with layers of firm, fine-grained tannins and deep blue fruit. Structured and focused with a lingering finish that continues to build. Well crafted." James Suckling

Pinot Nero Rosé presents itself with a bright cherry red colour. The bouquet is captivating with fresh, fruity aromas of red berries, cherries and raspberries, dried herbs and a hint of chocolate.

The grapes for this high-calibre Valpolicella Classico Superiore come from the rather barren, calcareous and terraced vineyards of Tenuta Novare above the Ognisanti church. Wines of greater complexity, perfect structure and higher concentration are produced here than in most other vineyards in Valpolicella. Sparkling ruby-garnet colour. Fragrant nose with wonderful overtones of sour cherry, dried flowers and white pepper. Perfectly balanced on the palate with firm tannins and wonderful spice and depth of fruit thanks to the ageing in wood. A superior, winning wine from the heart of the Valpolicella region. SUPERIORE.DE

"Offering an aromatic array of warmed cherries, plums, sun-dried tomatoes and underbrush showing a lift with hints of violets as the wine opens. A sip reveals a structure of refined tannins and a harmonious balance of tart cherry and a touch of leather with notes of black tea and roast coffee on the finish." Wine Enthusiast

"A medium-bodied red wine with fresh red berry aromas and flavours, showing floral, citrus and mineral nuances as it progresses. The tannins are very fine and almost chalky, soaking up more and more fruit on the ever-expanding palate. Long finish. This is a very graceful and well-made Valpo that reminds me a little of Pinot Noir. Very expressive without being loud in any way." James Suckling

"Vineyard of the same name in Arbizzano di Negrar, Corvina Veronese with a small amount of Rondinella, 12 months in French oak, a wine of juiciness and tension, notes of cranberries on the nose, with hints of marjoram, white pepper and wild mint. Firm and juicy on the palate, spicy finish." Luca Gardini
