Wow, this is more than the little brother of Brunello di Montalcino: Intense, smoky blackberry nose, cherry, chocolate and plum on the palate; a beautiful fruit melt and handy tannin spread continuously and long to a serious entry into the great wine world of Montalcino. SUPERIORE.DE

"Good full red color. Captivating aromas and flavors of ripe red cherry, savory herbs, and redcurrant jelly are laced with bright licorice and blood orange nuances. An exceptional Rosso, nicely combining richness with vivacity in a remarkably harmonious way. Closes creamy yet refined. One of the top three-four Rossos of the vintage and better than many Brunellos." Vinous

This traditional cuvée already inspires in its youth. Pressed from excellent grapes, you can taste the ripe fruit and the richness of the three classic vineyards. Powerful ruby with violet reflections. Full bouquet of ripe cherries, some plum, herbs and orange zest. Juicy and complex on the finish, very long finish with fine vein of salt and subtle fruit sweetness. Drinking! SUPERIORE.DE

"A bright and lively red with tile, dried berry with some chocolate. Medium body. Fruity finish." James Suckling

The Pecorari family's passion for varietal wines is best represented by the Pinot Grigio Gris, aged on the fine yeast with bâtonnage for 11 months. Fermented in oak, this Pinot Grigio offers an exciting and complex bouquet of white peach, citrus, flint, crushed oyster shells, white rose petals and notes of acacia honey. The well-proportioned acidity, the fresh taste and the wonderful depth and tension make it easy to see that the Pinot Grigio takes an absolutely special position at Lis Neris every year.

Out with the cliché, in with the surprise! Even the most famous Lambrusco plant of the Paltrinieris will fill every connoisseur with joy. Radice is produced using the Pét Nat process (Metodo Ancestrale) and therefore undergoes a second fermentation on its own yeast after bottling.

This naturally cloudy, dry Frizzante convinces already on the nose with notes of rhubarb, a fresh citrus note and some bread. The persistent, fine perlage and its drinkable nature make it a racy companion for hearty, spicy antipasti, light meat dishes or simply a lively celebration in the midst of nature and happy people. SUPERIORE.DE

"This copper-red Frizzante is a natural work of art: tasting a little like rhubarb and raspberries, dry - and cloudy like a wheat beer, because it has been fermented to the end in the bottle and not disgorged. It is closed with a crown cap (like all champagnes before disgorging). The liveried waiter in the chic restaurant in Sardinia opened the bottle as openly at the table as the Köbes in Cologne opened the beer. Right on!" Dr. Jens Priewe (weinkenner.de)

"Pale salmon pink; pastry notes, fine rubbery, arouses curiosity; smooth foam, very fine, practically dry, fruit depth, length, very pleasant (with yeast).". (JLF) Merum

Chianti Classico by Giovanni Manetti offers a deep, densely woven and yet very youthful bouquet of dark and red berries and fine spicy notes. The dry, cherry-like taste with long-lasting impressions, well extracted tannin and the Sangiovese typical acidity shows clearly recognizable terroir character. Very clear, straightforward, long, always fresh and juicy, with excellent strength and balance. SUPERIORE.DE

"Lustrous mid crimson. Gorgeous lifted nose of sour cherry with a hint of nutmeg. Succulent and almost a little tart on the palate with a layer of powdery tannins. Amazingly fresh for this hot vintage. I presume part of the fruit was harvested very early in order to maintain the acidity." Jancis Robinson

"The Fontodi 2017 Chianti Classico gives the impression of being slightly mature or advanced, even now straight out of the gate. The hot and dry vintage has shaped aromas of candied cherry, dried plum, rum raisin, white chocolate and a dusty note of wet chalk. The wine is quite beautiful in terms of mouthfeel, with well-integrated alcohol and tannins that close without sharpness or astringency. This dark and sultry Sangiovese shows moderate fruit, focused mostly on dark blackberry and dried cherry." Robert Parker

"April's frost resulted in less productive vines. Giovanni Manetti saw this as an advantage in the drought-like conditions of summer. He explains that with fewer grapes, the vines suffered less stress and were able to continue ripening without shutting down. Initial scents of baked clay and dry earth make way for mint blossom and cherry. Clingy, muscular tannins wrap around dusty fruit with nuances of rust and cinnamon poking through and the acidity is remarkably racy and ripe." Decanter

"A rich, layered Chianti Classico with intense cherry and flower character, as well as orange peel. Full-bodied with firm, velvety tannins and a flavorful finish." James Suckling

"The 2017 Chianti Classico Fontodi is a wine of extreme elegance that shows how much the house style has evolved here. A decade ago, in a warm year the Fontodi Chianti Classico would have been opulent, but these days proprietor Giovanni Manetti seeks finesse more than power, and that is exactly what comes through here. Ripe red Sangiovese fruit, rose petal, blood orange and spice infuse this racy, exotic Chianti Classico with so much character. The 2017 spent two years in oak, half in cask and half in neutral oak. I loved it." Vinous

Bewitching scent of sweet, dark berries with a hint of cassis, cedar wood and antique leather. Very well balanced and elegant on the palate, of beautiful viscosity with an elegant enamel. Fine-meshed tannin, restrained mineral tones and a wonderfully fresh and polished fruit accompany a remarkable finish. SUPERIORE.DE

"Shining, rich garnet. In the nose noble but reserved, a touch of mint, ripe wild berries. On the palate then extremely polished, excellent wood use, with pressure, tightly woven, spreads elegantly, powerful, long and compact." Falstaff

"Really beautiful second wine from Ornellaia with blackcurrant and blueberry aromas and flavors. Full body and round, soft tannins that caress the palate." James Suckling

Primo Franco is an elegant, very select vintage Prosecco Superiore from the heart of the DOCG production area. Fine perlage in a clear straw yellow, very pleasantly smelling of pears and sandwich biscuits, it literally melts on the tongue with a subtle fruit sweetness. SUPERIORE.DE

Opulent fruit with sage and thyme. Fresh and very agile it convinces in taste until it finally reaches its persistent final. A terroir plant full of character. SUPERIORE.DE

Magred (formerly Magré) is an extravagant white wine, reminiscent of a Grand Cru from Burgundy. Brilliant straw yellow. Fascinating the exotic bouquet of pineapple and coconut, with a touch of roasted oak, caramel and a salty note. Medium-bodied, of a certain creaminess, long and very multi-faceted. SUPERIORE.DE

"A ripe, opulent white with cooked apples and hints of lemon curd. Some pie crust. Full-bodied, layered and pretty. Plenty going on." James Suckling

One of our most popular Prosecco Superiore Brut made from high quality, hand-picked grapes and of aromatic refinement. Dry on the palate, beautifully balanced and accompanied by graceful perlage. SUPERIORE.DE

"Fresh fruity, appealing; smooth, delicate, fruity, well-balanced, dark, very balanced and fresh, wonderful Prosecco." (JLF) Merum

The grapes come mainly from the historic Russeghine vineyard above the town of Ranzo Borgo. The Pigato is particularly deep and mineral here, due to the exceptional terroir and long ageing on the fine lees. Bright straw yellow with light green reflections. Fragrant nose of herbs, yellow fruit and traces of pine resin. Full and persistent taste with beautiful spiciness and aromas of citrus and almond, and finally that beguiling, deep minerality. SUPERIORE.DE

Brilliant light yellow. Typical, flowery bouquet of nutmeg grapes. Elegant and delicate on the palate, inspiringly fresh and with fine spice and great acid wire. SUPERIORE.DE
