“Vigna Pedale” Castel del Monte Riserva DOCG 2016
The grapes for the Vigna Pedale come from vines that are over 30 years old. The vines are planted in a sapling system, which allows only a few grapes per vine. The harvest does not begin until mid-October, which is very unusual for this location so far south. Purple dark red colour. Spicy aroma of cherries, thyme, wild mushrooms and earth, the typical, unadulterated flavour is strong and concentrated with a subtle sweetness. This wine is already a great pleasure today, but still has potential for the coming years. SUPERIORE.DE
"Bright ruby red with a drop of violet. On the nose with nuances of Amarena cherries, beetroot, also with great spice, like mustard seed, after a little time then on noble wood nuances, appears stony. Clear juiciness on the palate, with plenty of fruit at the core, cool finish, balanced and with race, firm pressure on the final." Falstaff
"On the nose, smoky spice notes to the ripe raspberries with hints of roasted chestnuts and dried herbs. Medium to full-bodied with fine, slightly dry tannins and a bright bead of plum skin and raspberry fruit that combine for a tight, fruity finish. Lasting. Flavourful and entertaining." James Suckling

The Riserva from the great traditional line of de Castris captivates with intense cherry fruit, fine wood notes and subtle spice. Powerful and juicy on the palate, round and harmonious, with a wonderfully long finish. Every year a fantastic price-pleasure ratio! SUPERIORE.DE
"A fantastic value, the 2019 Salice Riserva 50esima Vendemmia opens with black cherry and plum depths complemented by sweet herbs and tobacco.

The Tralcetto Montepulciano is concentrated and beautifully complex - the popular classic of the house. Already in the powerful bouquet of sweet and sour cherries, it reveals its original grape.

Ripassa della Valpolicella Superiore DOC 2019
Zenato's world-famous Valpolicella Superiore, produced in the Ripasso method, is a rich wine with the best value. It is peppery, with earthy tones and gravel giving way to black cherries and savoury herbs. It reveals deep, silky textures balanced by vibrant acids, while ripe red and black fruits resonate under a hint of lavender. Zenato's Ripassa is concentrated and intense, but at the same time conveys elegance, leaving a fresh note of violet candy on the palate that lingers long. SUPERIORE.DE
"The 2019 Valpolicella Superiore Ripassa is dark and brooding in the glass with rich plum and mocha tones accompanied by crushed ash. Inside, it is surprisingly juicy and energetic, combining sour cherry with notes of sage and black olive over a core of vibrant acidity. The 2019 leaves the cheeks tingling and finishes full of tension and spice as the balsamic notes slowly fade." Vinous
"An elegant red, medium-bodied and fresh, with light, fine tannins framing a juicy range of sun-dried cherry and cranberry fruit, red licorice, eucalyptus and spiced orange peel notes that linger on the finish." Wine Spectator
"A beautiful blend of red berries, bright orange peel and spicy cedar on the nose, leading into a full, round and silky palate with very fine tannins that are well integrated into the texture. Lots of flavour and good length. Hard not to settle for a glass or two of this. Sustained. Drink now." James Suckling

"Radiant pink-red. In the fragrance of strawberries and fine kitchen herbs, grapefruit. Spans juicily over the palate, rich, clear fruit core, soft and balanced, on ice candy in the final and remains fruit-sweet over." Falstaff
"Light salmon rosé. Juicy, fruity scent of red plums and ripe mirabelles, also a nice phenolic is recognisable here. Also on the palate the full juicy fruit of stone fruits and green and white berries (gooseberry). Also something vegetal like green herbs and leaves. It also shows a fine minerality.

Terlaner Cuvée Alto Adige DOC 2022
Terlaner Cuvée (formerly Terlaner Classico) is the wine that best embodies the identity and personality of this iconic agricultural cooperative in South Tyrol. It has been closely associated with the history of the winery like no other wine since its founding year in 1893. Since the 2013 vintage, its grapes have come from selected vineyards in the Vorberg, Kreuth and Winkl sites. Aromas of tropical fruit and passion fruit, peach, pear and sweet almonds are surrounded by a salty, mineral vein, giving this beautiful white wine finesse and the typical Terlan character. SUPERIORE.DE
"Fresh, juicy and appealing, with hints of pink grapefruit peel and grated ginger enlivening the notes of ripe Gala apple, elderflower and slivered almonds. Long and mineral on the creamy finish." Wine Spectator
"Bright straw yellow. Clear and inviting nose of white peach, fresh quince and dried lemons, reverberating with fine pink flowers. Fresh on the palate, with nice Sauvignon notes, crisp, current in the finish with still some youthful acidity." Falstaff
"Aromas of cooked apples, lemongrass, tarragon and lime with a hint of kiwi. Medium body. Creamy texture with dried lemon and pear tart. Flint and slate character too. So much tension and purity." James Suckling

Bolgheri Rosso DOC 2021
Classic Bolgheri Rosso with a strong bouquet of raspberries and redcurrants, cassis and a little tobacco. Juicy, full-bodied flavour, beautiful tannins and good acidity. A wonderful introduction to the great world of Le Macchiole wines. SUPERIORE.DE
"The Bolgheri Rosso 2021 is a great wine that shows how convincing this vintage is on the Tuscan coast. Exuberant and deep, the 2021 is wonderfully complex from start to finish. Gentle notes of mocha, new leather, cedar, tobacco and dried flowers add complexity." Vinous
"Refined combination of black berries, coffee and dried flowers; on the palate with character, robust tannins, lingering fruit and herbal notes on the finish." Vinum
"Bright ruby violet colour. Discreet and fine on the nose, of pine needles, cold smoke and ripe wild berries. Gripping on the palate, with young, still somewhat impetuous tannins, shows great juiciness in the finish, still needs a little patience." Falstaff
"Attractive aromas of dark berries with crushed walnuts, savoury herbs and dusty earth tones. Medium to full-bodied with a firm grip of tannins that are fine and polished. A juicy acidity cuts through the linear finish. Fresh with a stony minerality that shines through on the finish." James Suckling
"The wine shows itself from the start with powerful but also very fresh fruit flavours of dark cherries and blackberries. The quality of the primary fruit is perfect, especially in this balanced vintage, and you get powerful flavours that go well with grilled meat. The wine has tremendous structure, acidity and elegant tannins." Wine Advocate
"On the nose, sweet, slightly tart aromas of cherries and blackberries are balanced by a stony, spicy earthiness. That interplay between tart fruit and sanguine earthiness continues on the palate, creating the sensation of a breath of fresh spring air after the rain, before chalky tannins and bright acid usher in a bitter, peppery finish." Wine Enthusiast
"This pure and expressive red wine is characterised by aromas of cherries, raspberries and blackberries, complemented by iron, spices and light herbal notes. Lean and elegant, with a juicy profile and excellent persistence on the finish." Wine Spectator

On the palate, it is spicy, full and harmonious and the vibrant acidity blends freshly and well into the overall picture. SUPERIORE.DE

"Spicy berries, red plums and cherries are followed by a medium-bodied palate with fresh tannins and a juicy, medium-long finish." James Suckling
"The 2019 Montecucco Rosso Riserva is dark and brooding in the glass, with suggestions of rosemary and sage, chalk dust and autumnal spice giving way to red currants. This washes across the palate, elegant and refined, with sleek red and black fruits carried across a core of vibrant acidity. It leaves a coating of fine tannins to linger along with a licorice tinge, as hints of sweet sage and violet inner florals fade." Vinous
"Multi-layered nose of cherries and menthol; pithy in the mouth, lively acidity, fresh, balanced final with an elegant final." Vinum
"Sangiovese, with the participation of Ciliegiolo and Cabernet Sauvignon, for another of the "favourite sons" of the Maremma. Notes of blueberries on the nose, then laurel and undergrowth, finishing with eucalyptus again. Juicy on the palate, iodised tannins, fruity and balsamic notes." Luca Gardini

“Argentiera” Bolgheri Superiore DOC 2020
Full-bodied, noble cuvée from the winery of the same name: aromas of red fruits, a light hint of roasted coffee, juniper, pepper and animal notes, an excellent tannin structure and a beautiful acidity give the "Bordeaux from Bolgheri" its exceptional independence and great elegance. SUPERIORE.DE
"Expansive bouquet with ripe dark fruits, sweet spices and ethereal-balsamic notes, plus cedar and tobacco notes, flirts with overripeness. In the mouth, despite the dense structure with a supple drinking flow, appears polished and full-bodied with fine acidity, elaborate tannin, not as crisp as some others, rather round, subtle and gently melting, in the final then with a characterful mineral-iron-like and typical spice." Weinwisser
"The Argentiera 2020 Bolgheri Superiore Argentiera is yet this remains a proud and careful hot-vintage expression. The fruit intensity starts off with a bang, and the wine revs high into sixth gear for the first few moments. However, the experience is just a bit shorter overall. You might want to give it more time in bottle." Wine Advocate
"A dark, brooding red, but also soft and complex, revealing flavours of blackcurrant, blackberry, plum, loam and sweet spice. Wonderfully balanced and fluid, with a long, detailed aftertaste that plays around the tannins. Impressive." Wine Spectator
"Charismatic bouquet of plum jam and herbs, also liquorice and pepper; powerful in the mouth with lots of juice, pressure and length." Vinum
"Rich flavours of currants and plums with undertones of chocolate and walnut. Full-bodied and chewy with layers of tannins. It is a big wine and very juicy with a polished and long finish. Needs five to six years to mellow." James Suckling
"Bright, rich ruby red colour with a delicate purple hue. Expressive and fragrant nose of rich wild berries, ripe cherries and a hint of dark chocolate, with fine floral components, precious wood and light spice. Shows itself on the palate with great melting and tightly interwoven tannins, very powerful, pure and clear in the course, very long, still young." Falstaff

“Vitiano” Rosso Umbria IGP 2021
Typical Vitiano: Its colour is strong ruby red and aromas of cherries and berries flow into the nose. The generous taste beautifully clear, just as we know it, in the foreground wonderfully fresh cherry tones with an aromatic vanilla note. The youngest Vitiano also has an excellent structure and fine tannins. Today already round, full-bodied, juicy and with long-lasting fruit. SUPERIORE.DE
"Spicy and floral, the 2021 Vitiano Umbria Rosso is a blend of Sangiovese, Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon. It wafts up with white pepper, savory herbs and violet complementing crushed blackberries. It's soft and round with vibrant red fruits and sweet blue and purple-toned inner florals. The energy remains high while finishing with a pleasantly chewy sensation, a framework of dusty tannins adding youthful poise." Vinous

Italy and wine. They just belong together. In no other country is wine so taken for granted. Italians are connoisseurs. Italian cuisine is world famous. Lunch and dinner are often really celebrated. And there's no meal without wine. This has a long tradition in Italy. Everywhere. From South Tyrol to Sicily. Some regions have built up a great international reputation with special autochthonous varieties that are native only to these regions. Above all Tuscany with Chianti, Brunello or Vino Nobile di Montepulciano. Or the Super Tuscans after models like Sassicaia, Ornellaia or Tignanello, which can keep up with the best red wines from Bordeaux.
World-famous are also the top wines from Piedmont, Barolo and Barbaresco, which are often compared in their finesse and elegance with much more expensive wines from Burgundy. Or Amarone from the valleys near Verona, Soave and Bardolino from Lake Garda. Or the cool red ones (yes!) from the Sicilian up-and-coming region around the hot volcano Etna.
Italian wines are diversity.
Due to the different climate zones and soils up to the mountains of Valtellina, but also close to the Mediterranean Sea or big lakes, there are various wine variants. Italian White wines as well as red wines, sparkling wines or dessert wines. In San Gimignano as well as in Puglia. From South Tyrol to Sardinia. There is actually no region in Italy without demanding viticulture.
Back to the roots. Old grape varieties and organic wines are "in"
For some years now, excellent wines from organic cultivation have been on the rise. Old grape varieties are rediscovered and celebrate successes, some winegrowers literally fanatically cultivate their wine in amphorae and bring great so-called "natural wines" into the bottle. All this makes Italian wines so typical, wonderful food companions with fine fruit and drinkability are the recipe for success. And all this with a very good price-performance ratio. The best wines of Italy never let boredom arise, from the "icon wine" to the up-and-coming boutique winery: exciting wine experiences await you! SUPERIORE.DE
