"The 2023 Grillo SurSur opens with a burst of grapefruit and lime zest complicated by a whiff of savory herbs. This is highly energetic, with a zesty core of acidity and gingery spices propelled by juicy acidity. The SurSur finishes with medium length and a sour citrus resonance, resetting the palate for another tension-filled sip." Vinous

Bright, straw-yellow colour, floral and fruity notes in an elegant, slightly mineral fragrance. As it matures, the bouquet develops flavours reminiscent of sultanas and honey.

"La Manina - young generation. Fresh and cheerful, upbeat and yet always carefree. A wine for people of today." Michael Graf Goëss-Enzenberg, Weingut Manincor

The elegant and sophisticated form of the light summer wine: with La Manina, Manincor once again manages to combine the expectedly high standards and drinking fluency.

A wine that can hardly be surpassed in terms of drinkability - and all in the proven Manincor style. SUPERIORE.DE

A highly respectable, stylish rosato that tastes of pure Tuscany with its bright acidity and is an excellent accompaniment to Mediterranean dishes. SUPERIORE.DE

"The 2023 Rosato Fuori Misura is gorgeous. Rich, ample and creamy, the 2023 possesses notable depth and the textural breadth to match. Sweet red cherry, blood orange, spice and mint are all dialed up. The Fuori Misura is more of a light red wine than a Rosato. As such, it will especially appeal to readers looking for something serious for the dinner table. This is an especially fine edition." Vinous

Golden yellow with a complex aroma of roses, cloves and fruits. Full-bodied, soft and round on the palate, with an interesting slight bitter note on the finish. Beautifully interpreted and characterful Traminer from South Tyrol. SUPERIORE.DE

The almost flat vineyards of Gries near Bolzano are characterised by sandy alluvial soils permeated by quartz porphyry. The Lagrein grapes, which predominate in this fresh cuvée, reach full ripeness here thanks to the heat-retaining properties of the Bolzano valley basin and thus gain their typical velvety softness. These deep red grapes are pressed with very short skin contact and surprise with fruity, fresh flavours of cherries combined with a hint of almonds. With its beautifully integrated acidity, this rosé goes particularly well with strong starters from South Tyrolean cuisine, fish dishes and summer-inspired dishes. SUPERIORE.DE

"A superfloral rosé with intoxicating aromas of violets and a bit of peach tea. pepon the palate, this light-bodied, easy-to-drink wine has zesty acidity and a tight, lean finish." James Suckling
