“Villa Bianchi” Verdicchio dei Castelli di Jesi Classico DOC 2023
The wine starts with a whisper of fragrant herbs, salted lemons and crushed mussels, inviting you to be patient and watch the wine develop. The palate is flattering with a medium body, plenty of texture gives the wine weight but is enhanced by the crisp acidity and citrus flavours that play around the palate. The finish is fragrant with orange blossom and salty minerality. Has what it takes to be a bestseller! SUPERIORE.DE

“Tareni” Chardonnay Terre Siciliane IGT 2023
Tareni Chardonnay glows straw yellow with emerald green reflections. On the nose, delicate notes of bergamot, green apple, white flowers and some cedar wood. Very full and juicy on the palate, with a delicate melt and restrained acidity. As the wine progresses, it becomes very balanced and round.

Campirosa Cerasuolo only gradually unfolds its fresh strawberry and cherry flavours, which are adorned with sweet flowers. The palate is silky-soft and very convincing with its ripe red fruits and juicy acidity. A hint of liquorice, exotic spices and nuanced tannins emerge on the finish and seem to linger for almost a minute. Campirosa is already a charming favourite when young, but can also mature for another year in the cellar. SUPERIORE.DE

“Riparosso” Montepulciano d’Abruzzo DOC 2021
The rugged, red-tinged rocky landscape of Ripe in the immediate vicinity of the vineyards gave its name to the Riparosso. Its intense bouquet of delicately fresh character is beguiling, the velvety and mild taste absolutely seductive. SUPERIORE.DE
"Marasca cherry, licorice root, mint and fennel. The mid-palate, ferruginous and mid-weighted, in the most savory and meaty sense. This is one of those wines, inimitably Italian by virtue of its dry structural focus, that just needs a few years. Not too much time. Just a modicum of patience. Stay the path." James Suckling
"A sweet blend of violets and lavender gives way to crushed blackberries and chalk dust lifts from the 2021 Montepulciano d'Abruzzo Riparosso. It washes across the palate with soft textures and ripe wild berry fruits that are neatly contrasted by sour citrus toward the close. This finishes perfumed and with admirable length, leaving a coating of dusty tannins that tug at the cheeks. Nicely done." Vinous

“Vernaiolo” Chianti DOCG 2022
Vernaiolo is one of the oldest members of the Rocca delle Macìe family and has always been the estate's most traditional example of Chianti. Its name is derived from the Latin vernāle, which means "of spring" and indicates the season in which the Chianti was bottled after it had survived the winter. Even today, this lively, ruby-red wine is ready to drink in the spring after the harvest and retains its fresh and fruity characteristics for a long time.
Fruity red with lots of dried berries and a hint of dried flowers and a touch of milk chocolate. Medium body, round tannins and a fresh finish. Delicious and very entertaining. SUPERIORE.DE

In particularly good vintages, particularly fine wines ripen naturally. The winegrowers often bottle wines from rare vintages separately. In large bottles, because the maturation takes place a little slower in them. And because they are of course also sought after as collector's items or as gifts.
These special bottles usually come in a specially designed gift box or an original wooden cassette, also abbreviated OWC. For the protection of heavy bottles, as collector's items or for counterfeit protection. Particularly valuable wines are therefore often only offered in 6 or 12 OWCs. These bring, if one collects these under yield aspects, then also with auctions clearly higher values.
Jeroboam. Balthazar. Nebuchadnezzar. Methuselah. What the fuck are you doing?
This is what these rare large bottles are called. From France. But not even there uniformly. It may well be that a bottle in Bordeaux and Champagne has the same name, but has a different number of litres. A little confusing, then. Internationally, however, these designations have become established for wine: Magnum (two standard bottles) 1,5 l, double magnum 3 l, Jeroboam 5 l, Methusalem 6 l, Balthazar 12 l and Nebuchadnezzar 18 l.
Vertical. Special lovers vintages.
The highlight for real wine lovers. The same wine from different top vintages. That's when the wine freak becomes the afficionado. You invite your best friends, decant the wines for lunch (don't forget to order decanters!), take the matching Riedel glasses and then enjoy the evening when your friends have no idea what they have in the glass and guess completely wrong. At the end the bottles are presented and then there is nobody who doesn't go home happy and smiling. SUPERIORE.DE
