From vineyards at an altitude of 250 metres in the midst of the majestic Dolomite landscape comes this charming Rosato, which embodies the carefree lightness of the South Tyrolean summer. The composition of carefully selected regional red grape varieties – mainly Lagrein – thrives in the warm, well-ventilated vineyards around Bolzano, where the mild climate and mineral-rich soils create ideal conditions for fresh, elegant rosé wines.

From the youngest vineyards of the 530-hectare Camigliano estate – where the tufa soils on the south-western slope of Montalcino give the Sangiovese particularly juicy fruit and fragrant flavour. 80% Sangiovese, supplemented by 20% Merlot for supple fullness. After gentle pressing, the wine ferments at a controlled temperature in stainless steel, then matures in large barrels and rests in the bottle for a few weeks before bottling. Vivid ruby red with garnet nuances, aromas of sour cherry, wild berries and a hint of liquorice, fruity and fresh on the palate, with soft tannins and animating length. SUPERIORE.DE

Brigaldara's Valpolicella is mainly made from Corvina and Corvinone grapes. The timing of the harvest is very important for this wine, so that its flavours are very delicate and its sensory balance is influenced by the precisely measured acidity. It expresses the characteristic flavours of the valley: from cherries to spicy notes, which are more or less pronounced depending on the vintage. Its beautiful and radiant balance is achieved by a short maturation in steel, which perfectly enhances its sensory characteristics. SUPERIORE.DE

Light yellow in the glass, with greenish nuances - this Soave surprises with its clarity and elegance. The nose has aromas of green apple, lemon, white peach and a subtle hint of almond blossom. The palate is fresh, juicy and racy, with lively acidity, delicate fruit structure and a fine hint of mineral tension. The ageing in stainless steel preserves the typical muscat flavour of Garganega and its pure origin. An uncomplicated, stylish white wine with Mediterranean freshness, ideal with seafood, light dishes or simply on its own in the sunshine. SUPERIORE.DE

In 1557, Mambrino Roseo da Fabriano described Verdicchio in words that still ring true today: "The finest of all white wines. It keeps well, is very clear, fragrant and pleasant." A botanist from the Marche region, almost five centuries before the advent of modern oenology. And he was right. Tenuta di Tavignano is situated in the hills west of Ancona, 20 kilometres from the Adriatic Sea, on east-facing slopes. Organically farmed. Six hectares of Verdicchio, planted in 1992, trained using the Guyot method, hand-harvested into small crates. Fermentation in stainless steel at a controlled temperature, aged for at least six months in stainless steel, followed by two months in the bottle.

Straw-yellow with greenish highlights. The nose is dominated by notes of white fruit, apples and pineapple, which are well balanced by citrus notes of orange blossom and jasmine. On the palate, it is fragrant and delicious, with a soft attack and balanced freshness, and a hint of nutmeg in the finish. An extremely straightforward Chardonnay, just the way we like it, with a crisp style, a subtle saltiness and a fruity finish. SUPERIORE.DE

This Chianti, made from Sangiovese with a small proportion of Merlot, is ruby red with violet hues. It is grown on the gentle hills of Montespertoli in the heart of Tenuta Castiglioni, whose winemaking tradition dates back to the 14th century. After fermentation, the wine matures for six months in temperature-controlled stainless-steel tanks, before a period of bottle ageing rounds out the flavours and brings the wine to its final balance.

Bright ruby red with violet reflections. This Primitivo has a fresh and uncomplicated fruit flavour of ripe cherries, blackberries and a hint of Mediterranean herbs. Soft and harmonious on the palate, with a juicy texture, gentle tannins and well-integrated acidity. Maturation in stainless steel tanks preserves freshness and varietal character. "Neprica" stands for uncomplicated drinking pleasure with Apulian soul - ideal with pasta, pizza or simply in the company of good friends. SUPERIORE.DE

Classic rosato with character: Terre Lontane is made from Gaglioppo and Cabernet Sauvignon – an unusual but extremely successful combination that creates depth and tension. The vines grow on chalky and clayey soils near the Ionian coast, whose proximity to the sea favours ripeness while retaining freshness. Brilliant raspberry pink with salmon-coloured shimmer. The bouquet is inviting and fragrant, with notes of redcurrants, pink grapefruit, wild roses and a hint of Mediterranean herbs. Lively, dry and precise on the palate, with a delicate tannic grip, good juiciness and a fine fruity finish.

In Renaissance Florence, the Spezieri were merchants of spices and rare essences – masters of the art of blending. Col d'Orcia has dedicated a wine to this profession, and the name fits well: Spezieri combines Sangiovese with Ciliegiolo – the cherry grape variety that has been at home in Montalcino for centuries – and small quantities of other varieties from the estate. A Tuscan blend, organically grown on 140 hectares around the hamlet of Sant'Angelo in Colle. Col d'Orcia is one of Montalcino's most important estates. Spezieri is its most accessible wine – fruity, flavoursome, light-footed, intended for everyday drinking. In summer, it can be enjoyed slightly chilled, in winter at a table setting.

Avignonesi's uncomplicated everyday wine combines Tuscan tradition with international grape varieties: Sangiovese and Merlot form the backbone, complemented by Cabernet Sauvignon, Colorino and Syrah. The grapes undergo an eight-day maceration at a controlled temperature, with the alcoholic fermentation guided by natural yeasts from the company's own pied-de-cuve selection. After eight months of ageing in stainless steel, the wine is ruby red in colour with inviting aromas of ripe cherries and blackberries, with a hint of liquorice. On the palate, it is lively and full-bodied with direct fruit, carried by velvety-soft tannins and a pleasant persistence reminiscent of Mediterranean scrub. A versatile and animating companion for every day. SUPERIORE.DE

Critone is one of the best-known white wine cuvées in southern Italy and combines the elegance of Chardonnay with the aromatic freshness of Sauvignon Blanc. The grapes come from well-ventilated vineyards around Cirò Marina, on calcareous flysch soils with a clay subsoil – ideal conditions for clarity and structure. The colour in the glass is pale straw yellow with a greenish tinge. The nose reveals green apple skin, citrus, some peach and fine vegetal notes. The palate is dry, clear and lively, with crisp acidity and a fine mineral vein. Maturation in stainless steel tanks emphasises the fresh, fruity character. SUPERIORE.DE

This organic Rosato by Umani Ronchi was born at the Centovie winery in Roseto degli Abruzzi. A project defined after several years of experimentation, with the aim of producing a wine that combines the expressive power of the Montepulciano grape with a soft and delicate vinification to emphasise its fresh and fruity nuances. Delicate pink colour with shiny reflections. Floral and fresh on the nose with delicate citrus notes, crisp on the palate with beautiful acidity and notes of red cherry, strawberry, blood orange and pink grapefruit. Complex and long on the finish – a serious wine with a great drinking flow! SUPERIORE.DE

XVII – the Roman seventeen honours the century in which the Rizzardi family acquired its first vineyards in Negrar in 1678. Since then, the house has cultivated the best vineyards in the Classico zone – pojega, Calcarole, Rovereti – on calcareous clay soils in the hills above the plain. Corvina and Corvinone form the backbone of this cuvée, with Rondinella, Merlot and Croatina providing the accents. Bright purple red in the glass. Shadow cherry and black pepper on the nose, with a hint of cherry blossom and Mediterranean herbs. Round and juicy on the palate, with an invigorating freshness and an earthy, herbal finish. Proof that Valpolicella has depth and character even without Appassimento – and an ideal introduction to the world of Guerrieri Rizzardi. SUPERIORE.DE

I Vini del Mare Belvento - this name stands for the still young project of the Moretti family, as it describes the wines they harvest and press here in the Maremma, close to the sea: the wines of the Sea of Fair Winds. "According to legend, this is the sea into which Aphrodite scattered the pearls of her necklace and from which Tuscany was born. The beauty of the region makes us believe this legend! But scientifically speaking, the Belvento, the beautiful wind, is an important factor in the development of grape quality, as it is precisely this wind that ensures good ventilation of the vineyard, the cooling breeze that keeps the freshness in the grapes and makes these wines so pleasantly invigorating." Flavours and aromas are always created here from the interplay of land and sea. This is why the labels of Belvento wines depict the animal species that live on the coast, in the waters and in the nearby nature reserve.

Belvento – the favourable wind. That is the name of Petra's maritime wine project, born of that narrow stretch of landscape where the metal-coloured hills of the Val di Cornia meet the Tyrrhenian Sea. The Velarosa is its rosé, and the name itself evokes both an image and a promise: a pink sail catching the wind. 100% Grenache, hand-harvested in early September, briefly macerated, and fermented at a controlled temperature in stainless steel tanks. 

Ceregio is designed as an early ready-to-drink wine due to its quicker and lighter vinification. Intense ruby red colour. Red fruits in the glass, especially cherry and pomegranate. Good correspondence with the nose on the palate, juicy and vinous, with good tannin density and reasonable length. A "wine for every day" with refinement and an enviable balance, it presents its beautiful concentration and fruitiness without frills. SUPERIORE.DE

A delicate salmon pink with coppery highlights – a rosé that exudes Mediterranean elegance even in the glass. Made from Nero d'Avola (30-year-old vines) grown on the hillsides near Noto, where limestone soils and sea breezes lend the wine freshness and character. On the nose, redcurrant, sour cherry, a hint of hibiscus and subtle spice. On the palate, it is juicy, light-footed and with well-integrated acidity that combines freshness with drinkability. A Sicilian rosé with style and lightness – ideal for warm evenings, dreams of the sea and those little escapes from everyday life. SUPERIORE.DE

Corvina, Corvinone and Rondinella, complemented by Molinara and other traditional varieties: the recipe for this Valpolicella is tried and tested, with the grapes growing on clay and limestone soils, both in the classic heartland and in the eastern part of the wine-growing region. The Tedeschi family, from Pedemonte, ages it for four months in stainless steel and then allows it to rest for two months in the bottle before it leaves the winery. A clear ruby red. Cherry, redcurrant and strawberry, with a hint of pepper. On the palate: crisp acidity, soft tannins, plenty of fruit and freshness. A Valpolicella that accompanies the entire meal without ever demanding centre stage, but rather brings the whole table together. SUPERIORE.DE

Lacrima means "tear". The small, dark berries burst when touched, leaving red marks on your hands, as if they were crying. The grape variety has borne this name for centuries and is found almost exclusively in the province of Ancona – one of the most distinctive and aromatic indigenous varieties in the Marche region. Umani Ronchi cultivates Lacrima for the Fonte del Re at altitudes of 150 to 200 metres, on deep clay soils with south-east and south-west exposure. Hand-harvested in mid- to late September. A maximum of ten days' maceration in stainless steel at 24°C, deliberately kept short to preserve the fruit aromas. Four months' ageing in stainless steel, followed by a short period of bottle ageing. The wine is part of the "NATIVE" range, which Umani Ronchi has dedicated to the preservation and promotion of indigenous Adriatic grape varieties.
