Vintage 2022

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

Sparkling dark ruby red in colour, this rich Primitivo has a balsamic aroma of dark fruits, graphite and cherries. Lots of fruit on the palate, balanced and with a lovely length. SUPERIORE.DE

"Gently shining ruby with a garnet-red touch. Elegant bouquet of dark plum, cigar box and dark chocolate. Compact on the palate with ripe fruit, chocolate again, grippy tannins." Falstaff

Noble salmon pink. Istines Rosé from certified organic viticulture shows peppery flowers with lime zest and hints of green melon. On the palate, an impressively silky texture and balance from an attractive blend of zesty acidity, sweet red berries and minerals. Finishes spicy and tangy, with hints of sour cherry and rosy flowers that linger. Really a lot of fun! SUPERIORE.DE

Boscarelli's Prugnolo opens the bouquet with velvety and cherry aromas, then becomes full-bodied and powerful. Outstanding fruit on the palate, pleasantly fresh acidity, present tannins, structured and long. SUPERIORE.DE

"Bright ruby red with violet reflections. Lots of cherries on the nose, followed by green pepper and vanilla. Fruity on the palate, straightforward, refreshing acidity, medium-long, slightly salty finish." Falstaff

"The 2022 Rosso di Montepulciano Prugnolo is vibrant and fresh, with a burst of wild strawberries, lavender and violets. This is juicy and fruit-focused, with masses of tart raspberry and sweet herbs energized by zesty acidity. It leaves the palate coated in primary concentration and spices while ending gently tannic and refined. This is a fantastic effort and a great introduction to the Boscarelli house style." Vinous

"Pure, fragrant and transparent with lots of raspberries, strawberries, red cherries, herbs and potpourri. This wine is really fresh and tangy, with fine, linear tannins that carry the juicy, nimble red fruit to a fresh, buoyant finish. Really drinkable, fresh and expressive." James Suckling

The vines for this Chardonnay grow on volcanic rock in the Pianezzi, Coveli, Molini and Palai parcels at an altitude of 300-750 metres. Straw yellow in colour with greenish reflections. Intense fruity nose of apple, banana and pineapple, with a hint of flint and hay. Open and round flavour with well-integrated acidity, characterful final. SUPERIORE.DE

"The 2022 Chardonnay is wonderfully fresh with a delicate bouquet of lime-tinged green apples and sweet floral accents. This displays silky textures and ripe orchard fruits, carried by cooling acidity that maintains a fantastic balance. It finishes with a mineral and sour citrus tinge while finishing with medium length. This is like drinking Chardonnay from a mountain spring." Vinous

Dry Zibibbo (Muscat from Alexandria) from the island of Pantelleria, grown at an altitude of around 300 metres in ferrous soils of volcanic origin. Isesi is delicately floral and smells of honeysuckle and perfumed star jasmine, which is appropriately called Sicilian jasmine in Italy. The flavour is dry and balanced, with just the right softness, freshness and lightness to make this high-quality white wine so incredibly charming and delicate. SUPERIORE.DE

"Bright, radiant golden yellow with silver-coloured nuances. Distinctly fruity, fragrant bouquet of elderberry and lots of ripe tropical fruit. Tart and fruity on the palate, compact with lively acidity and a pleasantly salty finish." Falstaff

"A juicy and fragrant white with fresh lemons, savory herbs and hints of citrus leaves and flowers. Medium-bodied with clean acidity. Polished and smooth with a flavorful finish." James Suckling

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

The pure Chardonnay La Fuga presents an impressive aroma and taste profile. On the nose, allusions to exotic fruits - pineapple, apples and bananas - on an elegant framework of mineral imprint. Great the format of the finely balanced taste. SUPERIORE.DE

"White peaches, sliced apples, fresh flowers and wet stones on the nose. Juicy and delicious with a medium body and crunchy stone fruit character. Tangy on the finish." James Suckling

Delara is Guerrieri Rizzardi's new Bardolino cru from the single vineyard Montebaldo. It exudes a wonderfully fresh bouquet of wild strawberries, roses, blood oranges and wet stones. It is pure and airy with beautiful mineral red fruits and a hint of spice. The wine finishes with peppery, floral notes and a hint of tart raspberry that gives it a zesty energy. SUPERIORE.DE

Col d'Orcia's Rosso di Montalcino is a fabulous wine every year. Classic aromas of wild berries, camphor and ploughed earth as well as a hint of blue flowers. Full-bodied and savoury on the palate with flavours of marasca cherry, plum and liquorice and taut, fine-grained tannins flanking the finish. SUPERIORE.DE

"The Rosso di Montalcino 2022 is spicy, blending cedar shavings with cloves, spiced oranges and dried strawberries. It glides across the palate with ease, silky smooth and racy, with ripe red berry fruit and sour citrus. The 2022 leaves the senses reeling right into the finish, ripe in style yet fresh and tangy, with a pleasantly bitter hint of ground clove that slowly fades." Vinous

"Fine spices, iron, minerals, fresh berries and grapefruit. Juicy, firm and fluid on the palate, with a medium body and an effortless finish. Well balanced and ready to drink." James Suckling

Tense Pinot bianco from the southernmost part of the Valle Isarco, which is climatically particularly favourable for this grape variety. Straw yellow in the glass, pleasantly fruity aroma of ripe pears and apples with creamy nuances of camomile. Fresh, harmonious on the palate with lively acidity, fine herbal spice and nice fullness. Mineral in the finish. SUPERIORE.DE

"Intense straw yellow with golden reflections. Complex nose, yellow stone fruit, dandelion, lemon zest and a hint of flint. Precise and tense on the palate, starts juicy, then lots of mouthwatering phenolic, refreshing acidity, lingering juicy-spicy finish." Falstaff

After a year of ageing in the cellar, Feudi's famous Greco "Cutizzi" is labelled Riserva.

Intense, straw-yellow colour and a complex bouquet in which the aromas of melon and pineapple alternate with spicy notes of camomile, vanilla and nutmeg. On the palate, it is round with a rich texture and the pleasant mineral note so typical of the Tufo region. Elegant, long finish with a delicate almond flavour. SUPERIORE.DE

"Bright straw yellow with green reflections. Yellow peach and orange zest on the nose, delicate nuances of dandelion. Yellow-fruity, juicy and fresh on the palate, lively acidity, pleasantly salty on the finish." Falstaff

"The 2022 Greco di Tufo Cutizzi opens with an array of sweet white flowers, chamomile and crushed apples. It balances ripe fruit trees and green melon with salty mineral tones and tantalising acidity. The 2022 finishes with a saline tension and notes of nectarine." Vinous

"Elegant, fresh and dense, with a delicious acidity and a chalky base note that frames flavours of ripe mirabelle plums and nectarines, blanched almonds, aniseed, hyssop and preserved lemon." Wine Spectator

"This is a fine Greco. It's savoury, almondy, quinine, bitter and spicy, while subtly moving into stone fruit territory without going over the top. A tremor of mineral tension and shotgun acidity finds a nervous meeting with a stiff upper lip of richness. Convincing." James Suckling

"The Feudi di San Gregorio 2022 Greco di Tufo Cutizzi is just the thing for a plate of raw fish with spicy wasabi sauce or tuna tartare. Aged exclusively in stainless steel, it has the subtle power and firmness to support generous flavours of pear, quince and honeydew melon. The mineral signature of the wine is very pronounced." Wine Advocate

"Floral, zesty and peachy, it has good intensity allied to lovely freshness and a very saline finish. Still very youthful, it deserves the chance to gain some more bottle age before opening; wait and you'll be rewarded." Decanter

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 grapes for Chiarlo's classic come from various vineyards in southern Asti, in particular from the Podere La Court and Montemareto vineyards in Castelnuovo Calcea, La Serra in Montaldo Scarampi and Costa delle Monache in Agliano. Le Orme is the prototype of a young, fresh red with a clean fruit flavour of plum and blackberry. On the palate, the wine is flavoured with high-toned red cherries and raspberries, framed by elegant and fine tannins with perfect acidity on the finish. A Barbera full of character that offers great drinking pleasure. SUPERIORE.DE

"Bright ruby red with a drop of violet. Fine and subtle on the nose, with notes of violets, cherry juice and wild berry fruit, even a slight spiciness on the finish. Some youthful, vegetal tannins on the palate, with a lovely flavour, juicy, a good accompaniment to food." Falstaff

Bright yellow-green, floral on the nose, delicately underpinned with spices, a hint of herbal spice and apple aromas. Juicy fruit on the palate, complex, yellow tropical fruit, fresh acid structure, long, lively finish. SUPERIORE.DE

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
