Vintage 2023

When a winery only makes two wines, the "second wine" is rarely of bad parents. This is also the case with Etichetta Bianca, which is hardly inferior to its bigger brother from the single vineyard Minaia. Delicately fruity nose of citrus and elder with a nice herbal spiciness. Soft and full on the palate, the fresh acid wire makes it a wonderful food companion. In the middle finish, the typical Bergaglio refinement and mineral vein. SUPERIORE.DE

A fine Rosso di Montepulciano with a typically fruity, spicy aroma and a solid body. It has just the right balance, is multi-layered, reveals an aromatic fruit and also has a final of decent persistence for the price range. SUPERIORE.DE

"Incredibly pretty, the 2023 Rosso di Montepulciano wafts up with a lovely mix of wild strawberries, violets, lavender and wet stones. This is juicy in style and remarkably pure, with a subtle tinge of minerality and vividly ripe cherry-berry fruit notes that flow across a stream of fresh acidity. It tapers off crisp and only gently tannic yet poised with medium length. This is fantastic for the difficult 2023 vintage and not your typical Poliziano Rosso, with just 50% of production and 100% Sangiovese." Vinous

Rich blackberry fruit, spices and cherry stones on the nose and equally fruity on the palate. Lively cherries, raspberries and potpourri on the palate with a medium body, fresh acidity and firm tannins. Chianti Biskero from Salcheto is a juicy, open and cheerful wine. SUPERIORE.DE

"A spicy mix of black cherries, cranberry sauce and clove wafts up from the 2023 Chianti Biskero. This is fruit-focused, with cooling acidity, sweet lavender, and violet tones swirling throughout. It finishes with medium length while remaining juicy and pure, leaving a subtle tinge of fine tannins that frame the experience nicely." Vinous

"Youthful and fragrant aroma of wild cherries, raspberries, liquorice and cinnamon. It is medium-bodied, crisp and firm." James Suckling

Light yellow with silver reflections. Orange zest with a subtle touch of stone fruit and delicate herbal spice on the soft nose. Medium-bodied, white apple fruit, mineral and persistent, restrained fruit sweetness on the finish, a multi-faceted and very fresh food companion. SUPERIORE.DE

"Our Dolcetto has typical Piedmontese DNA. Careful vinification aims to make it softer and rounder in order to emphasise its drinkability. Thanks to its special organoleptic characteristics, it not only accompanies Langhe dishes with elegance and harmony." Franco Massolino

Bright ruby red with violet reflections. Open and generous wine with lots of dark fruit, cherry and sweet blackberry. Medium-bodied on the palate, but full-bodied and vinous in character thanks to the natural richness of the Dolcetto grape. The typical, delicate almond flavour lingers on the finish. SUPERIORE.DE

"The 2023 Dolcetto d'Alba is a very pretty wine. Its floral overtones and mid-weight structure recall wines from a prior era, a time when Dolcetto was lighter than it generally is today. Lavender, spice and blue-toned fruits linger." Vinous

Pinot Blanc is the most widely cultivated white grape variety in the region around Eppan, thanks to the cool nightly downdrafts from the Mendelstock and the lightly loamy limestone gravel soils. Bright yellow, refined fruit aroma of apple and pear, balanced and fresh with crisp acidity and a pleasing finish. SUPERIORE.DE

Hexenbichler is a popular red wine made from 100% Vernatsch with varieties such as small, medium and grey Vernatsch. Pleasantly full-bodied, persistent and round. The great harmony is due to the low yields and the (formerly common) variety diversity. SUPERIORE.DE

"Intense sweet violet flavours with an assertive peppery character and super-fresh blackcurrant fruit. A lean body with zesty acidity and velvety, crisp and slightly dry tannins. Balanced finish." James Suckling

With a fruity Mediterranean aroma of white and yellow fruit and a finely balanced, velvety-soft flavour, this Alastro is full of character. A very aromatic and at the same time extremely fresh companion for many occasions! SUPERIORE.DE

"A delicious, supple and enchanting blend of grecanico and sauvignon blanc. Aromas of dried apples, quince zest and fresh herbs, following through to a medium body. Vivid and crunchy with a seductive finish and some blanched almond character." James Suckling

Brilliant straw yellow, the bouquet is intense and persistent. Lightly aromatic on the palate, typical of this vine, fruity fresh, elegant and delicate. SUPERIORE.DE

Planeta's fabulous Grillo is an extremely classic Sicilian, aromatic-fresh and intense on the nose with notes of pink grapefruit, balanced, firm and with a lot of tension on the palate. SUPERIORE.DE

Delicate salmon pink colour. Fragrant notes of citrus, rose petals and strawberries on the nose. On the palate, it has a lovely minerality, crisp tanginess and freshness. A good dose of acidity and its complexity make it a characterful and racy accompaniment to aromatic fish and vegetable dishes. SUPERIORE.DE

"Light, bright cherry pink with a sparkling centre. Opens up to crisp grapefruit on the nose, with notes of sour cherry and lavender. Compact fruit sweetness on the palate, present, with medium acidity and length." Falstaff

"A fresh blend of camomile, wild strawberries and spices wafts from the 2023 Rosé di Morgante. It has a soft texture, juicy acidity and crisp orchard fruit. The finish is long and full of savoury tension, leaving a noticeable mineral note and a hint of lemon peel." Vinous

"A fruity rosé that has pomegranate, rose hip and cherry aromas. It’s medium- to full-bodied, ripe and juicy. Tasty finish." James Suckling

Bianco di Morgante is a pure Nero d'Avola. However, the typical Sicilian red grape was vinified without contact with the skins, resulting in this very successful and exceptionally finesse-rich white wine. Silky and brilliant, this experimental wine impresses with its balance, freshness and lightness. SUPERIORE.DE

"Chopped apples, almonds and cream on the nose. It’s savory and medium- to full-bodied with a nutty, gently saline finish. Nicely textured and round." James Suckling

Damarino corresponds exactly to the image of its label, it is a lively and at the same time fascinating wine. Pale straw yellow, on the nose aromas of white flowers and fruity notes, a delicate hint of citrus. Soft on the palate, the fresh acidity and the pleasant texture in combination with its medium body make up the charm of this youthful looking Sicilian. Drinking pleasure guaranteed! SUPERIORE.DE

White classic from Vesuvius. Straw yellow colour with green reflections. Tangy flavour with elegant acidity paired with mineral and salty notes. A harmonious wine of which it is better to have an extra bottle in the fridge. SUPERIORE.DE

Straw to golden yellow in colour with a greenish reflex. Fresh, pleasantly light broom scent, well structured, pleasant acidity and very rich on the palate with a delicate bitter note on the finish reminiscent of pomegranates. SUPERIORE.DE

Bright light yellow. Intoxicatingly intense aromas of peach, mango and lychee, plus spring flowers. The residual sweetness very subtle, never broad, very fresh on the palate with a wonderfully refreshing finish. A classic as an aperitif, a lively addition to dessert. SUPERIORE.DE

This white wine, made from Müller-Thurgau and Gewürztraminer, is exceptional and outstanding. Iridescent straw yellow in colour with beguiling apricot, lychee, peach and rose aromas. The well-structured, fresh flavour is full of fruit, aromatic and spicy - pure exoticism! SUPERIORE.DE

Verha Bianco is a pure Sauvignon Blanc from Basilicata. In the glass, it exudes a sweet aroma of white flowers, camomile and mint. It is soft and supple on the palate, with ripe fruit and subtle mineral notes. The finish is crisp and refreshing, with a lovely length and a hint of fresh almonds. SUPERIORE.DE

A wine with a prestigious name and a beautiful legend: God wept when he found a corner of heaven stolen by Lucifer and where his tears fell, the Lacryma Christi vine grew. The extraordinary power of the area around the active Vesuvius gives this wine a great variety of flavours.

Mastroberardino's Lacryma Christi del Vesuvio is a single varietal Coda di Volpe that flirts with sweet melon and pear, complemented by notes of incense and exotic spices. A pure and soothing expression, but also very flavoursome, with mineral orchard fruits that fade into floral notes towards the end. A salty note runs through the final as it fades out fresh and clean. SUPERIORE.DE

Ambrae is an elegant cuvée of Chardonnay and Roussanne. Pleasant, intense aroma of light-coloured berries and a hint of bread, round and harmonious on the palate with a mineral vein and beautiful acidity. SUPERIORE.DE

Light, bright ruby colour. Youthful nose of early ripe cherries and wild strawberries, slightly vegetal, delicately peppery and spicy on the finish. Very precise on the palate, juicy and with young tannins, crisp fruit, great drinkability, even more complete in a few months. A great accompaniment to food. SUPERIORE.DE

"Always reliable Morellino from Elisabetta Geppetti: fruity and balsamic, but then above all very drinkable and long. Great fun." Vinum

"Light, bright ruby red colour. Fine, slightly smoky nose with aromas of crisp cherry, a little marzipan and a touch of rose water. Invigorating freshness on the palate, cheeky fruit, fine tannins, great fun." Falstaff

"The 2023 Morellino di Scansano is redolent of crushed red berry fruit, spice, mint, anise and orange peel. Medium in body and quite aromatic in this vintage, the Morellino is a fine choice for drinking now and over the next handful of years." Vinous

"Crisp and delicious, with bits of lemon, light plums and some flowers and tar. Light and fresh with firm tannins and a crisp finish. So much fresh sage and mint." James Suckling

"Il Preliminare" - "The Preliminary Remarks". The names of Gerardo Giuratrabocchetti's wines are reminiscent of his father's world as a notary.

One of the most exciting white wines in southern Italy, made from white Aglianico grapes, Chardonnay and Malvasia. In the glass, it smells of white flowers, orange peel, peach and bitter almond. Fine texture, bright and dancing on the remarkable finish. SUPERIORE.DE

"This fruity white has notes of sliced pears, bananas and lemon blossom on the nose. It’s fresh and medium-bodied with a straightforward, lemony finish. Drink now." James Suckling

Straw-coloured with greenish reflections, it has an intensely fruity aroma with nuances of yeast and fresh bread. The full flavour is deliciously balanced by the fine acidity. A masterful white wine in a rich style with a delicate flint note. SUPERIORE.DE

"A spicy and pretty white with sliced apples, spiced pears and a hint of white pepper. It’s medium-body with a rounded textured and a flavorful finish." James Suckling

Light ruby red colour. A small fruit basket with red berries and cherries on the nose, delicately floral with violets. Quite full-bodied, very dry with fine fruit and extremely fine sparkling mousseux, lingers for a long time, very finely balanced. The winery recommended it with tortellini in brodo - we can only agree, a perfect match. SUPERIORE.DE

"The nose of this stunning frizzante reveals a distinct interplay between fresh bay leaf, thyme, and crushed cherries, delicately sprinkled with rose petals. On the palate, it offers a mouthwatering mix of freshly chopped raspberries, green herbs, and a hint of white pepper, accompanied by subtle gamy notes. Versatile and delightful, it pairs wonderfully with a range of dishes promising to please all palates." Wine Enthusiast
