Light straw yellow. Rich bouquet of white flowers, grapefruit and lime. Fresh, very harmonious on the palate and blessed with an almost irresistible drinking flow. It is not for nothing that the Grillo grape variety is currently the most popular rediscovery in the very exciting Sicilian wine world. SUPERIORE.DE

"I am particularly attached to this wine, which is named after the border collie that lived with us for fifteen years. Otto is the youngest wine we have, fresh and ready to drink. A wine you should always have in your cellar." Graziano Prà

Pale straw yellow in colour. Delicate bouquet of white flowers, spices, lime and green apple. On the palate, the intensity of the green citrus fruit unfolds together with a deep, salty minerality. A balanced inner sweetness lends the whole a fantastic harmony. Otto finishes long with traces of candied lime, and its fresh tension offers plenty of drinking pleasure. SUPERIORE.DE

"Medium-light yellow colour; fresh, mineral-stone fruit; medium-bodied, fruity, white plums, juicy, drinky, pleasing." (JLF) Merum

"Energetic, medium-bodied Soave. Delicious to drink. Prosaic in the best sense, with attractive notes of garden herbs, aniseed and freshly sliced Asian pears. A certain undissolved CO2 content gives the wine a pleasant length." James Suckling

"When you enter this Soave, you feel like you're in a spa, with refreshing cucumber notes greeting you at the door. The floral and citrus flavours of the wine create a beautiful and inviting atmosphere. Bright lemon and lime flavours unfold on the palate, offering a tangy and invigorating experience. This Soave is the perfect embodiment of freshness and makes you want to crack it open and savour its refreshing qualities. It is the first choice for anyone looking for a crisp and invigorating white wine." Wine Enthusiast

Delicate in colour, the fragrance seduces with notes of nutmeg, white roses and jasmine. Juicy, fresh and wonderfully dry on the palate with a mineral finish. SUPERIORE.DE

San Vincenzo with its nuances of fine herbs, which combine with the aromas of peach and almonds, conquers the palate with a firm, optimally structured, fresh flavour. It finishes long and full of character. And last but not least, the San Vincenzo impresses with its favourable price! SUPERIORE.DE

"Sparkling, light golden yellow colour. Fruity, spicy bouquet of juicy grapefruit, mirabelle plums, a hint of honeycomb and white pepper. Velvety on the palate with a fruity centre, dancing acidity, harmonious and with a delicate salty finish." Falstaff

"Lots of fresh fern character with citrus on the nose. Medium-bodied with dense lemon curd and zest, but the herbal element is always present, as is a hint of spice. Long finish with a hint of fresh mint. Lots to savour here. Quite complex." James Suckling

As the name suggests, this wine is a rebel: Verdicchio reinterpreted, harvested early, crisp, fresh and lightly vinified. A Sturm und Drang wine with opinion, character and the mineral structure of the Matelica region, also for those who have already left their youth behind them and are looking for a racy, fresh accompaniment to summer dishes or as an aperitif for every day. SUPERIORE.DE

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

Since the 2021 vintage, the grapes for this classic wine have been sourced exclusively from the hills of the Valpolicella core zone of Valpantena: fresh flowers, sweet red berries, mint and a hint of cinnamon escape from the glass. Absolutely delicious and vinous on the palate, the style is exuberant and cheerful. Valpolicella could only be so delicate, fresh and precise. SUPERIORE.DE

"A crunchy and fresh Valpo with white pepper, cherry and orange-peel aromas that follow through to a light body with bright, freshly picked cherries and a crisp finish." James Suckling

Rare cuvée of white vinified Sorbara and Trebbiano. Delicate floral fragrance, violets, pears and citrus notes, bold and fresh. Delicately creamy on the palate, fills the palate wonderfully, pears and citrus again, really prances over the tongue with fine perlage and lasts quite long with good freshness. Fine as an aperitif or as an accompaniment to fish starters. SUPERIORE.DE

Dark cherry red with violet reflections. Intense aroma of sweet, preserved Amarena cherries and sour cherries, with a delicate herbal flavour, very inviting. Sweet fruit again on the palate, embedded in a fine, sparkling mousse, long-lasting and fresh, with a lively acidity on the finish. A fine aperitif, but also a very good accompaniment to hearty pasta dishes. SUPERIORE.DE

"Lifted and pretty, this Lambrusco exudes a bouquet of vibrant purple and blue flowers, such as violets, lavender, and iris. Wild plums and sour cherries seem to have been steeped in a bowl of wild mint and thyme, with intriguing hints of mushroom and freshly turned earth adding depth to the aromatic profile. The palate is lush, brimming with a medley of purple fruits, and the finish is touched with a delightful sweetness that lingers and is lifted by an energetic pop of acidity on the finish." Wine Enthusiast

Golden yellow Falanghina with shimmering greenish reflections and a pleasantly fresh scent of broom. Well-structured on the palate, very full-bodied and complex with balanced acidity and flavours of pomegranate and a very delicate floral note on the finish. Svelato - open and unveiled, as its name suggests. SUPERIORE.DE

"Medium straw yellow with green reflections. Very floral on the nose, chamomile, sage and meadow flowers, with some banana and white peach in the background. Vibrant on the palate, straightforward, with a fine melting texture and a citrus flavour on the finish." Falstaff

"A bright and fleshy white wine with aromas and flavours of peach, pear and salted almonds. It is medium to full-bodied with a savoury undertone in the stone fruit." James Suckling

Classic Pinot Blanc with the scent of ripe apples, citrus fruits and pears. Elegant, balanced, harmonious taste. Finado is not a bit playful or even simple-minded, but comes across as very precise and focused right into its clean finish. SUPERIORE.DE

Verha Rosso is a single-varietal Aglianico produced by Elena Fucci in a seductively fresh style. In the glass, it presents an abundance of ripe raspberries and blueberries, accompanied by minty herbs and a hint of smoke. On the inside, it is juicy and perfumed, with energising notes of mandarin orange balancing the wild berry fruit. A delicately bitter citrus flavour and a salty note make every sip an unforgettable experience. This must be THE wine for every day, and that's exactly what Elena meant, a thousand thanks for that! SUPERIORE.DE

Italy connoisseur and wine critic Ian D'Agata writes about the grape variety in his book "Native Wine Grapes of Italy": "Verdicchio is arguably Italy's greatest indigenous white grape variety. This statement may come as a surprise to those who have only tasted neutral or watery Verdicchio wines, sometimes even bottled in incredible amphora-shaped bottles."

Light straw green in colour. Clean and fresh on the nose, lively and lively on the palate with an almost laser-like precision in the flavours of citrus fruits, herbs, almonds, mussels and crushed gravel. Its sweet and sour note makes the wine even more appealing and gives it an air of "drink me now". Everything here is in perfect balance and has a natural tension. Even Bisci's base wine, aged for 7 months on the fine lees, impressively demonstrates the great class of the winery. SUPERIORE.DE

Goldmuskateller or Moscato Giallo - not a sweet wine, but dry - has an intense aroma and delights the palate with its pleasantly fresh acidity and beautiful fullness, to which a fine note of sage is added. SUPERIORE.DE

Here comes one of Italy's favourite rosati: bright salmon pink, with a nose of peach, berries and hints of cherry. The flavourful finish is crisp and fruity. The "Anniversario" comes from vines that are around 50 years old and is the house's top Rosato. It was vinified for the first time in 1993 to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Five Roses. SUPERIORE.DE

"Light baby pink with silver-coloured reflections. Elegant on the nose with notes of currant and blueberry, plus spicy notes. Fresh, precise and with compact fruit on the palate, juicy and powerful through to the lingering finish." Falstaff

Light yellow in the glass. Fresh, fruity aroma of pear and peach, very balanced and savoury on the palate. An elegant, characterful white wine with a high enjoyment factor. SUPERIORE.DE

"With lime and lemon pulp and broom flowers, this wine is fairly neutral and slightly mineral on the nose. Slightly full-bodied, crisp and long with malic acidity. Very flavourful." James Suckling

Karmis, an animating white wine based on Vernaccia, comes from the lower Tirso Valley in the area between Cabras and Baratili - where the climate is typically Mediterranean with mild winters, little rain and very hot, breezy summers. And so its colour is brilliant and deep yellow, the bouquet delicate but persistent with hints of fresh fruit. Soft, full and with good flavour correspondence on the palate. An excellent aperitif and accompaniment to light dishes. SUPERIORE.DE

"L'Atto" - "The deed". The names of Gerardo Giuratrabocchetti's wines are reminiscent of his father's world as a notary.

L'Atto exudes a bouquet of crushed purple candy, freshly cut plums and a hint of musk. It is soft and fleshy in style, while silky textures reveal an opulent display of ripe black fruits and sweet herbal notes on the palate. Spiced blackberries mingle with hints of ginger biscuits and violet-coloured flowers as it finishes long. There's plenty of immediate pleasure here, but not at the expense of balance. SUPERIORE.DE

Light yellow in colour, fine nutty and buttery notes on the nose with juicy fruit such as mango and apple. Fresh and elegantly textured on the palate. A harmonious, versatile Chardonnay with a clean, yellow apple finish. SUPERIORE.DE

"A sparkling, tangy Chardonnay that tastes a little more like Pinot Blanc than Chardonnay. It's fresh, apple-flavoured, bright with green pears and spring blossom and sweet with satsuma acidity. Like a crisp white envelope, neatly pressed, containing a bright yellow card with sunshine and flowers." Jancis Robinson

"An attractive chardonnay with sliced cooked apples, lemon rind and peach stones. Medium-bodied with lovely density and freshness and a bright, tangy finish. Fresh, clean and direct." James Suckling

The Tocai fills the glass with a pale yellow colour, ripe fruit, citrus fruits, almonds and flowers envelop the nose, beautifully balanced and textured in the mouth, harmonious and long-lasting. A great, full-bodied, dry white wine. SUPERIORE.DE

"White peaches, sliced pears and white flowers on the nose. Medium- to full-bodied and lightly exotic, with lots of flavor and intensity. Crushed stones." James Suckling

Emilio Rotolo's Refosco dal Peduncolo Rosso draws you into the glass with its deep, peppery black raspberry flavours, complemented by pretty violet and lavender tones. Wrapping the palate in a cloak of dark, ripe, textured fruit, it is incredibly elegant and polished, but also tangy. A layer of sweet tannins frames the expression and caresses the cheeks, while citrus fruit and a hint of spice linger. This is a very nice wine that will benefit from a slight chill. SUPERIORE.DE

Powerful Sauvignon with fresh flavours of melon and lime blossom and lemon zest on the nose. A varietal, elegant representative with maximum enjoyment value and great value. SUPERIORE.DE

"A cheerful wine that tastes and smells like lime and orange sherbet sweeties. Fruity, frisky, friendly and all upfront. Nice balance." Jancis Robinson

S. Maddalena Classico "Huck am Bach" is a pretty, feminine wine with a lot of character and South Tyrolean personality. Small red berries, hints of sweet spices and flowers on the nose, supple tannins, round and fruity flavour and very appealing length. SUPERIORE.DE

"Reductive nose with aromas of spicy flavours, pomegranates and a hint of milk. There is complexity here. The attack is dense and velvety, with a medium body, crisp acidity and ripe tannins." James Suckling
