The Chianti Colli Senesi from Fattoria del Cerro is a dark, lively wine with beautiful fruit, mineral and leather aromas in the nose. Pleasantly round and balanced on the palate. A drinkable wine with a certain standard. SUPERIORE.DE

More than 15 years of success story and also one of our bestsellers: A spicy, wonderfully palatable wine with a terrific value is Anarkos. Its strong bouquet is characterised by berry and herbal notes. The taste is earthy and spicy, yet soft and juicy. SUPERIORE.DE

Wonderfully supple Chardonnay with fruit wrapped in floral scents, hints of apricot on the palate. Straightforward, full of substance and with the right amount of acidity on the finish. SUPERIORE.DE

"The 2020 Chardonnay Preludio N.1 opens up delicately floral and poised, white smoke and dusty dried flowers giving way to nuances of chamomile and freshly sliced apple. This soothes with its soft and enveloping textures and pleasant inner sweetness, focused on ripe orchard fruits and melon, and contrasted by a stimulating citrus core. It tapers off crisp and clean, medium in length, and with a slightly tropical flair. Comparisons to village-level white Burgundy are filling my mind. For the full effect, make sure to give the Preludio N.1 some time to open up in your glass, or even give it a short decant at this young stage." Vinous

Deep ruby, smells of wild berries and black tea. Compact, dense and round on the palate, with well-integrated sweet tannin, fullness, melting and a long fruit finish. Very successful interpretation of a Castel del Monte Rosso. SUPERIORE.DE

"Dark red; dark fruity, cherry; juicy acidity, fresh fruity, cherry sweetness and richness, crisp, juicy and very pleasant." Merum

Strong, bright dark pink. Fresh, fruity, mild and balanced is the Cantalupi Rosé from predominantly Negroamaro. Balanced and harmonious on the palate, well-integrated acidity with balanced fruit. Its light serving residual sweetness makes it rather a more flowery representative of its kind. SUPERIORE.DE

"The 2020 Cerasuolo d'Abruzzo charms with a delicate display of wild strawberries, nuanced florals and hints of stone dust. It's a vibrant and juicy effort that fleshes out across the palate with mineral-tinged fruits and savory spice. A buzz of residual acids lingers, forcing the mouth to water, as this tapers off to hard red candies and inner rose tones. The 2020 La Valentina is a spirited Cerasuolo for poolside sipping." Vinous

Typical Vitiano: Its colour is strong ruby red and aromas of cherries and berries flow into the nose. The taste beautifully distinct, 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

"Rosemary, fresh blueberries and blackberries here. Full-bodied and fruity with juicy tannins and plenty of spicy undertones. Licorice on the finish." James Suckling

Excellent, single-varietal red wine from the ancient southern Italian vine Nero di Troia. Violante convinces with its fine-smelling, red-berried and delicately smoky bouquet. Fresh on the palate, well structured and beautifully balanced between fruit and acidity, it is a wonderful food companion and very inexpensive everyday wine. SUPERIORE.DE

Primitivo di Manduria, fragrant of ripe fruit, whose fruit is perfectly matched to the wood dose and whose dense taste ends with pleasant cocoa notes. SUPERIORE.DE

The extremely popular white wine from Maccari has risen to DOC status and is now called "Olli". It caresses nose and palate with aromatic-floral notes and yellow-fleshed fruit.

Distinctive white from the Monferrato. The aromatic grape variety Sauvignon Blanc gives the wine its unique floral bouquet. Its velvety texture and fine acidity are the basis for the extremely complex taste. Tra Donne Sole (The Lonely Women) is named after a work by Cesare Pavese. SUPERIORE.DE

"This blend of Nero d'Avola and Cabernet Franc offers aromas of dark berry, cedar and tobacco. The savory palate shows black currant jam, licorice and vanilla alongside firm tannins." Wine Enthusiast

"The bouquet is intense, leading off with a rush of black cherries, cassis, plum, and sweet violets, as the 2018 Bonera blossoms in the glass, becoming more lifted and refined. Its silky textures give way to fleshy, ripe red and black fruits, zesty spices and inner florals. This tapers off long, washing the senses in currants and berries, with hints of grippy tannins that tug at the cheeks, kept fresh through mineral-tinged acids. The Bonera, a blend of equal parts Nero d'Avola and Cabernet Franc, is fruit-forward but also quite balanced, providing a lot of upfront appeal." Vinous

The name says it all: this rosato is reminiscent of the unconventional times of 1968 in its lightness and buoyancy. Pale pink in the glass, it exudes the scent of white fruits and virtually dances until the fruity-fresh finish. The overall impression is of a cheerful yet serious rosato with a high drinking fluency! SUPERIORE.DE
