The Grotta Rossa clearly embodies its terroir and the grape variety. The clean, powerful bouquet is reminiscent of ripe berries and cherries, while on the palate the tannins blend perfectly with the acidity before the soft finish sets in. SUPERIORE.DE

"The nose starts crisp and savory, with aromas of graphite, earth, pepper and violets. Sweeter notes of blackberry, plum and chocolate gradually emerge, and continue to swell on the palate, but zippy acid injects a balancing, almost metallic tang." Wine Enthusiast

The Tonaghe, made from grapes from vineyards in Ogliastra, Oliena and the Sinis peninsula, has a medium ruby colour. Intense roasted and plum notes on the nose, roasted flavours on the palate, blackberry fruit, full, juicy and warm. SUPERIORE.DE

Intense, violet ruby red, explosive bouquet with notes of dark red fruit, roasted flavours and a slight hint of graphite. Densely packed on the palate with a wonderful balance between ripe fruit and mineral solidity. SUPERIORE.DE

"This shows spicy and earthy character with dark berries, walnuts and hints of cured meat. Medium-bodied, polished and refined, with beautiful fruit and creamy walnut character in the middle. Flavorful finish." James Suckling

Delightful drinking pleasure from organically certified cultivation at a sensational price! The dark and incredibly dense Rosso Piceno smells slightly sweet of berries with hints of plum. Its powerful consistency is supported by juicy, very soft tannins. A wine full of character and its own. SUPERIORE.DE

Brigaldara's Valpolicella is mainly made from Corvina and Corvinone grapes. The timing of the harvest is very important for this wine, so that its flavours are very delicate and its sensory balance is influenced by the precisely measured acidity. It expresses the characteristic flavours of the valley: from cherries to spicy notes, which are more or less pronounced depending on the vintage. Its beautiful and radiant balance is achieved by a short maturation in steel, which perfectly enhances its sensory characteristics. SUPERIORE.DE

"This wine is a classic example of Valpolicella with aromas of fresh raspberries and dried cranberries mixed with thyme, sage and forest floor leading to a lively palate. Driven by sour cherries, the palate is indulgent and generous, and the more it opens up, the more spicy and floral notes add complexity." Wine Enthusiast

"The 2022 Valpolicella is wonderfully fresh, with a gorgeous blend of violets and roses giving way to muddled blackberries and an air of crushed chalk. Incredibly pure, this flows across the palate with a juicy wave of ripe wild berry fruits. It finishes crisp, with a tart cranberry concentration and inner florals that linger on." Vinous

The deep red cuveé of Montepulciano and Sangiovese exudes a beguiling aroma of sour cherries, coffee, marjoram and vanilla. Flattering, juicy and very dense on the palate. Chocolate and plum on the long finish. Matured in Slovenian oak barrels, the tannins are ripe and melting. A fantastic everyday wine with charm and character. SUPERIORE.DE

"Medium-bodied red showing attractive aromas of chocolate maltesers, peaches, licorice and sour cherries. Juicy and well-integrated tannins." James Suckling

Carmelo Morgante's spicy and dark Nero d'Avola opens with a burst of blood orange, crushed blackberries, balsamic herbs and violet blossom. It is silky smooth yet cool in flavour. Crisp wild berries and tangy citrus fruits form the contrast. A youthful tension unfolds on the palate, while tart cherries and cranberries mingle with sweet tannins. It reveals much more depth, concentration and balance than you would expect for this price.

"Medium ruby colour with violet accents. Fresh acidity structure. Lots of Amarena cherry. Juicy and uncomplicated. Subtle notes of blood orange and violet blossom. Everything appears cool and modern. Silky tannins. Cranberries lend a youthful character. Forest plants and fir, tangerine and fresh redcurrant. Fresh acidity. Inviting." Vinum

"The 2021 Nero d'Avola is savoury in the glass with a forest-inspired blend of mentholated herbs, shaved pine, tangerine and crushed wild berries. The palate is pleasantly sweet, with cocoa flavoured red berry fruit and a hint of sage and lavender. Pickling and powerful, the 2021 tapers off with dramatic length, leaving taut tannins and notes of liquorice that linger." Vinous

The grapes come from the Ginestra, Mosconi and San Pietro cru sites, with around 10 rows planted outside the appellation boundaries (this is why the wine is a Langhe Dolcetto and not a Dolcetto d'Alba). Beautiful, detailed aroma of rose gardens and lavender fields. The finish is slender, soft and silky with aromatic richness and plenty of fruit. A wonderfully complex Dolcetto in the impeccable style of the Clerico house. SUPERIORE.DE

"This is a wine that is fun to drink and reveals sweet, explosive fruit. It is charming through and through. The Domenico Clerico 2022 Langhe Dolcetto Visadì shows fresh sour cherry and summery blueberry. The fruit is sweet and fresh, and there are also subtle floral aromas." Wine Advocate

Elibaria is characterised by its aromatic purity and clear territorial character. The granite soils give the Vermentino di Gallura that certain something. Compact, yet elegant, with a variety of tropical fruit flavours and fine minerality. An exceptional white wine! SUPERIORE.DE

Primitivo Felline smells of ripe berries, flowers, figs and sultanas. Its distinctly dense flavour is carried by present but sweet tannins and a fresh, tart plum finish. The classic of the winery. SUPERIORE.DE

"Bright ruby red with a dark core. Initially mingled notes of sealing wax and beetroot on the nose, plus some malt, reverberating with milk chocolate. On the palate with lots of tannin and open-hearted fruit, reminiscent of pineapple, ferruginous, precise." Falstaff

Falerno del Massico Bianco is a young, single-varietal Falanghina with a lively bouquet and has always been a classic of the region. Full-bodied and cheerful on the palate, finely balanced and with a dry finish. SUPERIORE.DE

Multi-layered bouquet of dark fruits, liquorice, mint, minerals and sweet spices. Exquisite and irresistible the taste of this balsamic Cannonau. Inu is a sublime, elegant, very refined wine. SUPERIORE.DE

"Plum stones, white pepper, walnuts and grilled herbs on the nose. Medium-bodied, lightly spicy and tight, with fine tannins. Drink or hold." James Suckling

Medium cherry red colour. Tobacco, leather and liquorice on the nose, with a beautiful cherry aroma on the palate, supported by a good acidity and tannin structure. An excellent interpretation of Sangiovese with a great value. SUPERIORE.DE

"A soft red whose core of dark cherry is accentuated by wood smoke and clay flavours. Balanced and fresh, this wine flows through to the long-lasting finish, in which the smoky note lingers." Wine Spectator

"Nose of fresh red berries, citrus peel and a hint of hibiscus. Medium-bodied, bright and refreshing, with dusty tannins and a crisp aftertaste." James Suckling

The sophisticated Rosso San Biagio combines sour cherry, peppery herbs, leather and dark earth tones to create a tasty and wonderfully inviting entry. The textures are soft, but the fruit is ripe and fleshy, with notes of sour citrus and juicy acids that maintain freshness while keeping the energy high. This wine is dangerously delicious and finishes long with hints of blackberry and spice. SUPERIORE.DE

"Sparkling ruby-violet with a slightly brightening rim. Very clear and intense nose with lots of rich blackberry fruit and dark currants, some bay leaves. Round and polished on the palate, fruit well brought out on the attack, then shows some harsh tannin, slightly drying." Falstaff

Pale straw yellow with greenish inclusions. Restrained, elegant bouquet of apple, mango and peach. Almost distinguished and aristocratic on the palate with the typical, flavoursome aftertaste of hazelnut and light fruit typical of the Nosiola grape variety. With its piquant acidity, it is ideal with light meat dishes or shellfish. SUPERIORE.DE

"The 2022 Nosiola is dusty and floral, with a whiff of cedar and dried flowers offset by spiced citrus. This is saline and precise, with soft textures yet an abundance of mineral tension, as tart orchard fruits cascade across the palate. It tapers off with admirable length and wickedly fresh, crunchy and savory, ending with a salty sensation." Vinous

This Refosco initially shows the restrained side of this grape variety before the fine scent of berries, liquorice, tobacco and flowers unfolds in the glass. On the palate, soft, caressing with finely woven tannins. A very elegant and feminine Refosco. SUPERIORE.DE

Medium ruby red colour. Sweet and spicy aromas of raspberry, milk chocolate, red cherry, orange zest and violets. Complex and juicy, with very soft tannins, high but harmonious acidity and beautiful generosity and elegance to the red cherry, savoury and floral aromas. A deep, rich and yet very clear wine with supple tannins that are wonderfully harmonious after a short aeration. SUPERIORE.DE

"Dark, strong ruby red colour. Aromas of dark berries, herbs and forest floor on the nose. Present, fine tannins on the palate, light, pleasant fruit sweetness and a lingering, spicy final." Falstaff

"A fragrant version, showing notes of espresso, cured tobacco and dark chocolate, this creamy red layers supple tannins with flavors of baked cherry and plum fruit. Balanced, with a spiced finish." Wine Spectator

Deep red colour, the nose is dominated by the scent of ripe cherries with hints of spices, plums and tobacco. On the palate, the same powerful aroma play, extract-rich, powerful and with juicy soft tannins. An organic wine in a class of its own! SUPERIORE.DE

Under the name Askos, Li Veli summarises a project in which long-forgotten, indigenous grape varieties are rediscovered and cultivated on the ideal terroir selected for them. The red Susumaniello grape is said to originate from the nearby Dalmatian coast and is one of the most exciting grape varieties in Puglia today, even though it is rarely vinified as a single variety.

The Susumaniello Askos is a solid red wine with a rich bouquet of red cherries, plums, dark spices and red earth. These warm flavours combine with a medium intensity and full, round fruit to create an extroverted style that is both soft and pleasantly fruity. Tradition meets modernity - very successful! SUPERIORE.DE

"A fresh, chewy red, offering a brambly mix of mulberry and black raspberry fruit, dried sage and thyme, smoke, vanilla and milled pepper. Medium-bodied, with its light, pleasing plumpness carrying the profile on the finish." Wine Spectator

After a year of bottle ageing in the cellar, Feudi's famous Fiano "Pietracalda" is labelled Riserva.

A particularly high-quality Fiano di Avellino from Campania with a bouquet of light-coloured stone fruit, nuts and honey. On the palate, its fruity character, aromatic herbal notes and clean structure and minerality make it extremely stimulating. SUPERIORE.DE

"The 2022 Fiano di Avellino Pietracalda wafts up with a delicate blend of white flowers, young peach and crushed stone. It flows across the palate with silken textures offset by tactile mineral tones as a core of ripe pit fruits and inner florals amass toward the close. A youthful tension lingers as the Pietracalda finishes classically dry and lightly structured. Today, the 2022 is coy, yet it possesses the balance for medium-term cellaring." Vinous

"That's good. Taut and fresh. It relies on a chewy lattice of salted lemon pith, as well as a distinct acidity. Taut and medium-bodied, with dabs of pistachio, fennel, tonic and jasmine. Long and complex." James Suckling

"The Fiano di Avellino Pietracalda 2022 is another very approachable and drinkable white wine from Feudi di San Gregorio. It is fresh and lively, both on the nose and in the mouth, with lots of flavours of white melon, pear, almond and gravel." Wine Advocate

The bouquet of this Morellino is characterised by clean impressions of red fruit, complemented by toasty notes. The soft flavour is followed by an impressive and persistent finish. An extremely successful and powerful Morellino with genuine Riserva qualities. SUPERIORE.DE

"Pure Sangiovese with a scent of plums and Mediterranean scrub; supple in the mouth, beautifully polished with fine-grained tannins, carried by a crisp acidity, warm and fruity finish." Vinum
