Ruby red colour, fresh nose of red fruits and spices. Pleasant flavour: fruity, balanced in tannin and acidity, very lively and crisp. SUPERIORE.DE

"Bright ruby red colour. Still somewhat restrained on the nose, of ripe cherry, rosehip and cloves. Opens on the palate with clear fruit and animating acidity, fine, young tannins." Falstaff

"This tightly wound red's chewy tannins maintain a stranglehold on the wild strawberry and cherry fruit. Accents of earth and tobacco add detail, yet the finish feels pinched for now." Wine Spectator

"The nose balances savory, slightly astringent aromas of coffee, soil, pepper and balsamic with sweeter notes of cherries and blackberries. That berry element glows on the palate, but an enduring peppery earthiness preserves the balance. Firm tannins usher the acid into a sophisticated, salty finish." Wine Enthusiast

The Pecorino from Villa Medoro is an inexpensive and at the same time consistently high-quality white wine made from autochthonous grapes every year. Stimulating in aroma, full and juicy in flavour. A great wine for every day. SUPERIORE.DE

In Valpolicella, single-varietal wines from the native Corvina variety are becoming more and more common. And Scaia shows a beautiful portrait: light ruby red, mineral notes in the bouquet, plus small red berries and cherries, round on the palate with good freshness. Wonderful to drink. SUPERIORE.DE

"Rather jammy strawberry and raspberry on the nose and palate. Medium-bodied with intensity of fruit and some fine tannin that does little to impede the flow. Glass stopper. Good and fruity. Drink now." James Suckling

Straw yellow in colour with greenish reflections. The nose is dominated by notes of white fruit flesh, apples and pineapple, which are well balanced by citrus notes of orange blossom and jasmine. Its fragrant palate is flavoursome with a soft entry and balanced freshness, with a light nutmeg spice on the finish. An extremely straightforward Chardonnay, as we love it, with a cool style, fine salinity and a fruity finish. SUPERIORE.DE

"Aromas of lemon, crushed stone, white flowers, stone fruit and dried pineapple swirl together to create a fresh, enticing nose, and continue to mix and mingle on the bright, salty palate as acid gleams overhead. It is refreshing, but also substantial." Wine Enthusiast

Intense salmon pink with copper-red reflections. Delicately fruity bouquet of strawberry and raspberry, sour cherry, floral notes of violets with hints of marzipan. Elegant and harmonious fullness on the palate with fresh, well-balanced acidity. SUPERIORE.DE

Nals Margreid's Edelvernatsch (Schiava) is a pretty cherry red with a peppery, fruity bouquet, pleasant fullness and freshness on the palate and an invigorating finish. Perfect for dinner. SUPERIORE.DE

"Very light red colour; subtly herbal-fruity, fresh, appealing; subtly fruity, round, juicy, very fine, very drinky." (JLF) Merum

The area around Lake Kaltern is probably the best-known cultivation area for the Vernatsch grape. Only the ripest grapes are used for this ruby red selection. Violets, cherry and bitter almond on the nose, harmoniously round and juicy on the palate. SUPERIORE.DE

Fragrant blue flowers, Mediterranean herbs, cherry and wild berry flavours flow from the glass. On the lively palate, juicy black cherry, blackberry and a ground pepper note accompanied by supple tannins. Very accessible, balanced and harmonious. SUPERIORE.DE

The classic white wine Critone, made predominantly from Chardonnay, offers clear aromas of yellow fruit and fresh apple flavours. The elegant flavour has a beautiful structure and remains fruity and fresh until the remarkable finish. SUPERIORE.DE

"Light golden yellow with brightening edges. Open, mineral nose of wet stone, lime and yellow melon. Present acidity on the palate with a sweetish final. The fruit is persistent on the finish." Falstaff

"Aromas of pear, lemon and fennel, followed by a fresh, medium-bodied and clean palate. A hint of wet stone to finish." James Suckling

This Sicilian cuvée is beautifully textured, harmonious and rich. It has a seductive aroma of honeydew melon, banana and herbs with a crisp freshness. A remarkable, dry white wine with a good balance between acidity and fruit and lasting persistence. Very good value. SUPERIORE.DE

"Strong, intense straw yellow colour. Aromas of ripe yellow stone fruit, exotic fruit and yellow flowers on the nose. Juicy, drinky and slightly salty on the palate." Falstaff

Falanghina from the Molise DOC - even the Samnites not only appreciated this wine, they considered it to be one of the best. Golden yellow in colour, with a pleasantly fresh bouquet in which a hint of broom mingles with the exotic fruit aroma. Rich, full flavour reminiscent of pomegranate, yet always fresh and well-structured. SUPERIORE.DE

"Bright straw yellow with greenish nuances. A fragrant nose of jasmine, overripe white peach and a hint of pepper. Youthful texture on the palate with animating freshness. Fruity-sweet, salty finish." Falstaff

"A fresh and lively Falanghina with flavours of lemon peel, grapefruit and camomile. It is medium-bodied, bright and juicy. Made from organically grown grapes." James Suckling

A well-proportioned bouquet with a spicy flavour and aromas of light flowers. The palate is medium-bodied, with lively acidity and good length with a slightly salty finish. Pecorino is a wonderful and always fresh accompaniment to savoury vegetable dishes and white meat and seafood. SUPERIORE.DE

"A refreshing, savoury white wine with notes of lemon zest, sliced pears and chamomile. It is medium-bodied, lively and delicious. A bright expression of pecorino." James Suckling

"More savory than sweet, the 2023 Pecorino lifts from the glass with a thrust of wild herbs, crushed rocks and lime zest. Round and supple, this builds lovely tension through a core of saline minerality and citrus-infused green apple fruits. It finishes amazingly fresh and full of zesty tension, leaving a salty sensation and hints of young kiwi that linger on and on." Vinous

A smoky blend of raspberry jam, sage and freshly ground pepper flows from the glass. The palate is silky in texture and extremely flavoursome with the pepper notes from the bouquet mingling with salty minerals and lively acidity. The finish is long and fruity with a hint of liquorice. A delicious accompaniment to food. SUPERIORE.DE

"Rich ruby red with a delicately brightening rim. Very fragrant and very clear on the nose, of fresh strawberries, violets and wild berries, inviting. On the palate with radiant play, very fresh and balanced, shows clear fruit, everything is in its place, fine drinking pleasure." Falstaff

"Bright cherry, fresh and lively with a hint of sweet paprika spice. Juicy and delicious. A wine that is a pleasure to drink." Jancis Robinson

"A beautiful, casual young Valpo with fresh cherries and berries. Light, clean and straightforward. No tannins to speak of." James Suckling

Rich straw yellow colour, fresh, floral aroma and clear fruit of white peaches and a hint of honey. The intense flavour is taut and fresh with hints of minerality, round, juicy and long on the finish. We are very surprised by the complexity of this wine for this price range; this is a new generation of Puglia. Good length and Storage potential - ideal with grilled fish dishes, Mediterranean vegetable dishes or light-coloured terrines. SUPERIORE.DE

Racy, elegant and very authentic Rosso di Montepulciano, slender and feminine, with the flavours of ripe red cherries and good length. SUPERIORE.DE

"Bright ruby red colour with a violet hue. Intense and multi-layered nose, showing notes of ripe sour cherries, blackberries and blackcurrants, with hints of violets and cloves on the finish. Fresh and juicy on the palate, with soft tannins and a long finish." Falstaff

"A pretty bouquet of bright cherries and pink flowers makes the 2022 Rosso di Montepulciano a real pleasure on the nose. It is juicy and savoury rather than sweet, with hints of wild berries and minerality. A hint of liquorice resonates on the medium-long finish, while the 2022 finishes fresh." Vinous

"Raspberries, chocolate, hazelnuts and bark on the nose. Creamy, fresh and balanced, with a medium body and bright acidity." James Suckling

Kalterersee Auslese is a light ruby-red, smooth and low-tannin classic with a pleasantly mild, smooth and fruity flavour. Perfect to enjoy with typical Tyrolean dishes such as bacon and sausage. SUPERIORE.DE

"Tense and tight nose, reductive at first, then with floral, pink grapefruit and pomegranate notes. The attack is velvety, with ripe tannins, refreshing acidity and a medium body. Polished, beguiling finish." James Suckling

A wine of refinement and enviable balance, it carries its beautiful concentration and fruitiness without fuss. SUPERIORE.DE

This Fine is made from white grapes and was aged for one year in wooden barrels. It is elegant with a beautiful bouquet and a fine medium sweetness. Strong character of vanilla and roasted almonds, intensely persistent, velvety and soft with a full flavour. A dessert wine that is furthermore indispensable for Italian cuisine. SUPERIORE.DE

Straw-coloured with greenish reflections, smells intensely fruity with nuances of yeast and fresh bread. The full flavour is finely balanced by the subtle acidity. A masterful and tightly woven Friulano-based white (called Tai in Veneto) that harmonises wonderfully with white meat, fish and shellfish. SUPERIORE.DE

"Spicy, grapey fruit aromas follow through to a medium-bodied palate with compact, spicy ripe-fruit flavors and a touch of phenolic grip at the end." James Suckling

Brigaldara's Soave is a fresh, clear and very successful white wine. Aromas of ripe apples, lime zest, flowers and a delicate hint of spice. Soft and supple on the palate, very focussed on the fruit and the pleasing acidity, with notes of almonds that give it a respectable depth. Subtle notes of kiwi and citrus fruit on the pleasant finish - very successful! SUPERIORE.DE

"Sensibly under screw cap, a fair closure for this type of sharp, mineral, medium-bodied white wine. And it's very good too, albeit in a more traditional form. Orchard fruits, jasmine and a hint of tangerine peel, marking a noble bitter finish of excellent persistence. Very easy to drink. Lasting." James Suckling

Intense ruby red colour. Spicy with hints of red fruit and a wonderfully subtle woody flavour. Long and persistent on the palate, with iodised tannins, a fruity, tart finish and a floral final. SUPERIORE.DE

"A one hundred per cent Sangiovese from Tuscany with a pleasant freshness and fruitiness. Brilliant ruby red in the glass. Pure fruit takes centre stage here. Unadorned, straightforward and cheerful. Cherries, redcurrants with a present but rather restrained acidity structure. The tannins are fine and grippy. Uncomplicated drinking pleasure that is great fun for everyone, from beginners to real wine lovers." Vinum

Brilliant straw yellow colour. Fine bouquet of citrus fruits with strong, floral notes of jasmine, star fruit and orange blossom. Fresh and balanced on the palate, tangy hints of lime and grapefruit, good length. SUPERIORE.DE

"A delicious single-vineyard Grillo from the Salina area of Marsala in western Sicily. Pithy, saline and zesty, it's really bright and fresh, with touches of peach, passion fruit and orange peel making this very enjoyable." Decanter

"Fresh and mineral Grillo with lively citrus fruit and hints of white flowers and crushed stones. Medium-bodied, clean and crisp on the palate. Lively and vertical with a flavourful finish." James Suckling

Orion is a very special Primitivo, always fresh and with remarkable persistence. Dense ruby red with a violet rim, the nose has intense aromas of ripe and fleshy red cherries, followed by spicy notes such as cinnamon and nutmeg. Powerful, smooth and very long in the mouth. Its clearly defined acid wire makes it fresh and pleasantly different from the sweet, jammy Primitivo monotony that is otherwise all too often on offer. SUPERIORE.DE

"The nose is simultaneously weighty, fresh and elegant, with aromas of black cherry, blackberry and dark chocolate, along with undertones of orange peel and stone. All of those notes reappear on a palate which is bitter, but friendly, as acid soars overhead." Wine Enthusiast
