Ramitello impresses with an immense aroma of intense red fruit flavours and delicate balsamic notes. The taste is warm and full, with rich fruit tones spiced with a hint of tobacco, coffee and liquorice. SUPERIORE.DE

"Very dark ruby red with garnet reflections and a violet-coloured core. Very ripe blackberry and blueberry fruit on the nose, followed by earthy notes, eucalyptus and coffee powder. The palate shows great balance and equilibrium, the long final is very fruit-driven, the grippy tannins full of tension." Falstaff

"A concentrated, tasty red wine with aromas and flavours of mulberry, laurel, sage and black bean. It is full-bodied, dark fruity and balanced with medium-bodied tannins." James Suckling

Dark ruby red colour. Clear, tidy aroma of cherries and strawberries with a subtle hint of sweet spices. Very elegant tannins on the palate, medium body with fresh fruit and hints of minerality. Well-integrated acidity and a pleasant juiciness without intrusive sweetness make you long for the next glass! SUPERIORE.DE

It is only since the early 1980s that Chardonnay has been vinified as a single-varietal wine in South Tyrol. The pioneer was the St. Michael-Eppan winery, which experienced a tremendous upswing at that time. Their Chardonnay presents itself with wonderful aromas of melon and banana, an invitingly juicy taste and good length. SUPERIORE.DE

Sherazade - a beautiful protagonist from A Thousand and One Nights and a wonderful Nero d'Avola from the south-west of the island, which grows on clay soils. Concentrated ruby red colour, fruity, balsamic aroma with mineral tones, followed by a sweet hint of cocoa. Soft on the palate with memories of sour cherries and blackberries. SUPERIORE.DE

"The 2022 Nero d'Avola Sherazade wafts up with a wickedly fresh bouquet of crushed wild berries, violets, sage, white pepper and licorice. This is racy and cool-toned in feel, with juicy acidity and masses of ripe red and blue fruits that cascade throughout. The 2022 leaves a staining of primary blackberry concentration, finishing classically with framing tannins that make for a lovely punctuation. This is a wonderfully fresh yet still potent Nero d'Avola." Vinous

"Very typical with lots of sour cherry and crisp lemon zest both on the nose and on the palate. Medium body with bright acidity and a tart finish. Creamy texture. Shows real Nero character." James Suckling

Intense Carignano from a master craftsman at a low price. Rich ruby red in the glass, the nose is surrounded by small black and red fruits with a wild, unspoilt character that we only find in the rugged, untouched landscape of Sardinia. Beautifully spicy with a soft yet clearly recognisable interpretation of Sardinian red wines, just as we love them. Wonderful drinking flow. SUPERIORE.DE

Rosso del Duca is a very classic Montepulciano d'Abruzzo. Powerful fragrance of blueberries, cherries and cocoa, straightforward and tireless on the palate. SUPERIORE.DE

Lagrein Rosé, also known as Lagrein Kretzer, is a light ruby-red wine with a light and pleasant fruity flavour. Its fresh, lively character makes it great fun to drink on many occasions. SUPERIORE.DE

Santa Cristina Chardonnay has a colourful bouquet of aromas of dried quince, lemon, almond and minerals. The interesting flavour is well balanced and harmonious. A delicious wine with great drinkability. SUPERIORE.DE

Light yellow with greenish reflections, delicately scented with white melon. Varietal taste, dry, fruity, with a balanced body and nice breed. SUPERIORE.DE

This lovely Goldmuskateller can be recognised by its typical aromatic nutmeg scent, which is combined here with a light honeydew melon note. The fine residual sweetness gives the wine a pleasant softness and personality. SUPERIORE.DE

The grapes for this Chardonnay come from vineyards in the municipalities of Auer, Neumarkt and Tramin. Delicately fruity aroma and lively flavour with aromas of pineapple, pear, citrus fruit, some caramel and butter. SUPERIORE.DE

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

Sparkling, radiant golden yellow. On the nose, classic varietal tones of quince, pear, white peach and tangy citrus carefully correspond with the impression on the palate. The pretty mineral note gives the wine linearity and a brilliant sense of clarity. This fresh South Tyrolean Pinot Blanc is another example of Italy's great white wines, and this is especially evident in this truly honest price point. SUPERIORE.DE

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

The Spumante in light golden yellow smells of mimosa, medlar and almond. Beautifully round and balanced on the palate, with good acidity, clean and of commendable persistence. Great value! SUPERIORE.DE

Intense violet colour in the glass. The bouquet of smoke, spices with traces of liquorice. Taut on the palate, then opening up and a mouthful of wine with everything the wine lover's heart desires when thinking of Puglia: harmony, fresh fruit and animating acidity, plus fine extract sweetness and well-worked tannins. SUPERIORE.DE

"This shows aromas of dried berries and prunes with hints of chocolate and spice box. Medium- to full-bodied, polished, dry and nicely filled with juicy fruit. Dusty finish." James Suckling

The Carignano and Sangiovese grapes for the Araja come from red, sandy soils from the coastal region. Ruby red with a lush aroma of fruit, light spicy notes and chocolate. The taste is extremely soft and dense with very fine and elegant tannins. SUPERIORE.DE

"Moss and seaweed notes here, alongside sour cherries and citrus rind. Savory with a light stemminess, medium body and a crunchy finish." James Suckling

A beautiful, terroir-influenced rosato made from the autochthonous Aglianico grape variety. Its label is emblazoned with the coat of arms of the ruling house of Emperor Frederick the Hohenstaufen, who was at home here. Concise, fresh and fruity, certainly one of the most beautiful rosati from the volcanic terroir of Basilicata. SUPERIORE.DE

Powerful aroma with fresh, fruity tones and spicy nuances. Very appealing on the palate, full and savoury, well-structured and with the finesse of a first-class wine. SUPERIORE.DE

Bright garnet colour with a transparent core. Opens with a rich aroma of freshly roasted malt coffee, black elderberry and cherry liqueur, with a hint of tobacco. Spreads comfortably over the tongue, supple and balanced, interwoven tannins, medium weight, lingers for a long time, has potential. SUPERIORE.DE

Nero d'Avola and Syrah from the hills around Monreale, aged briefly in steel and oak barrels. Young vines, freshness on the palate, red cherry, hints of thyme, myrtle and menthol. Juicy and tasty on the palate, with a fruity, oily finish. SUPERIORE.DE

"Deep dark ruby violet colour. Ripe blackberries, cassis, black pepper on the nose, with a hint of forest floor and preserved plums. Present on the palate, medium tannin and palate pressure, savoury texture, retronasal black cherry, pleasant, round, long-lasting final." Falstaff

"The Benuara 2022, a blend of Nero d'Avola and Syrah, exudes a cascade of dried violets, roses and black cherries accompanied by hints of rosemary and camphor. This wine is elegant and polished, with spicy herbal notes on the attack that give way to an abundance of red and black fruits. The lively acidity maintains balance, while the 2022 finishes with soft tannins and a pleasant bitterness." Vinous

Full-bodied, very pretty Pinot Gris in a bright straw yellow colour with a pleasantly subtle, floral apple and melon aroma. Soft flavour with harmonious fullness and remarkable freshness. Delicate notes of nuts and honey develop after a period of ageing. SUPERIORE.DE

"Some white nuts and white fruit on the nose, which is simple and slightly neutral but delightful. The palate shows a crisp medium body and a creamy, medium-length finish. This shows good varietal character and purity." James Suckling
