Veronelli

Deep ruby red colour with a violet hue. Clean, intense and persistent on the nose, with notes of red fruits, blackberries and sour cherries. Full and fruity on the palate, with notes of tobacco and liquorice on the finish. SUPERIORE.DE

"Dark and tangy, with a lush core of blackberry, mulberry and boysenberry fruit flavors, revealing accents of oolong tea leaf and spiced orange peel. Shows taut, fine tannins that impart a tightly meshed feel, but this is silky and balanced overall, opening nicely on the palate and in the glass." Wine Spectator

"Aromas and flavours of berries and cherries, along with hints of rose petals and fruit tea. Medium-bodied with slightly abrasive tannins and a chalky mouthfeel on the finish." James Suckling

Cretum Rosso is made from a strict selection of the estate's best Sangiovese, Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon grapes, which grow just a few kilometres from the Crete Senesi area that gives the wine its name. Bright ruby red colour, ripe red fruit on the nose. Lively, balanced palate with polished tannins and present fruit flavours. Great value! SUPERIORE.DE

"A firm and fine tannined red with currant, berry and orange peel aromas and flavors. Medium body. Fresh finish. Racy at the end. Nicely crafted." James Suckling

Rosso Piancarda is intensely flavoured and perfumed, with medicinal cherries and raspberries complemented by dusty roses and sweet cedar wood notes. On the palate, Piancarda turns to the savoury spectrum. Salty and full of savoury minerality, it shows spicy red fruits, a hint of plum and a lively acidity that keeps the expression fresh. The grippy tannins remain until the final, while the notes of sour citrus fruits and tart berries slowly fade away. SUPERIORE.DE

"Shimmering ruby red colour with a deep dark core. Juicy plums on the nose, with a hint of ginger and a slightly animal note. Grippy and savoury on the palate, with dense tannins, lush fruit and a pleasantly juicy final." Falstaff

"The 2020 Rosso Conero Piancarda, a Montepulciano grape variety, rises from the glass with a dusty mix of dried roses, redcurrants and a hint of nectarine, creating a truly inviting bouquet. The wine is silky and elegant, almost creamy, yet sublime and cool, with mineral forest berries and a saline note adding a savoury touch towards the end. The 2020 leaves a layer of fine tannins as inner flowers arch across the palate and a minerality slowly fades. The warm vintage has given this wine a particularly soft character, but the structure and acidity of the Piancarda are beautifully balanced and should favour medium-term cellaring. Put a few bottles in the cellar, you'll thank me later. " Vinous

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

"The nose is warm, sweet and savory, as aromas of strawberry rhubarb pie waft above a foundation of fresh brewed coffee and earth. The palate leans into that subtle sweetness, with milk chocolate and more coffee grounding wild cherry and strawberry flavors, against flexible tannins and a persistent stream of acid." Wine Enthusiast

"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

Deep dark, masculine Aglianico. Smoke and minerals on the nose, with a subtle aniseed note. Flavours of blackberry, leather and dried meadow herbs on the palate. An impressive red with great potential at an unbeatable price. SUPERIORE.DE

"Roasted herbs, cedar, poached plums and hot chocolate on the nose. It’s fleshy and flavorful, full-bodied, with firm, but mellowing and berry-soaked tannins and a rich and fruity finish." James Suckling

The combination of Friulano (called Tai in Veneto) and Sauvignon Bianco makes Bidibi a delicious white wine full of character with rather moderate acidity. Delicately scented with citrus fruits, fresh, fruity and animating on the palate with a discreet mineral structure that adds a summery lightness to the wine's fullness and creaminess. SUPERIORE.DE

Concentrated ruby red with garnet-coloured reflections. The wood contributes very slight hints of roasted coffee to the predominantly black cherry and berry aroma. Full and very intense flavour of dark berries, very slight hints of violets and plums, the compact tannins are supported by balsamic notes, with fine liquorice tones in the finish. The harmony that this powerful and already delicious Aglianico hints at today will only fully come into its own after a few years of ageing in the bottle. SUPERIORE.DE

"This has aromas of black currants, black cherries, dried herbs, tobacco and bitter chocolate. Firm and toasty on the palate, with a full body and chewy tannins. Ambitious but balanced." James Suckling

A high-class Valpolicella, fine and haunting spicy aroma with a full and fleshy fruit development of blackberries and cherries, a wonderfully pleasant bitter note in the long finish. The harmony between aroma and taste is inspiring. SUPERIORE.DE

"Plenty of black-fruit and pot-pourri aromas here. Medium- to full-bodied with good intensity and a firm tannin structure. The fruit is more like crushed blackcurrants on the palate. This finishes a bit chewy for now, but another year in bottle will even it out. Delicious fruit." James Suckling

Multi-layered bouquet of dark fruits, liquorice, mint, minerals and sweet spices. Exquisite and irresistible the taste of this balsamic Cannonau. Inu is a sublime, elegant, very refined wine. SUPERIORE.DE

"Plum stones, white pepper, walnuts and grilled herbs on the nose. Medium-bodied, lightly spicy and tight, with fine tannins. Drink or hold." James Suckling

Rich and dense ruby red colour, open and accessible aroma with beautiful blackberry fruit and light tea notes in the background. The flavour is also beautifully fruity, reminiscent of ripe, dark cherries, followed by hearty tannins and a round finish. More classic Vino Nobile for this price is simply not possible. SUPERIORE.DE

"Exudes an aroma of black cherries, spices and vanilla; polished on the palate, the acidity and tannins in balance, notes of red berries and sandalwood in the powerful final. Goes well with game dishes and spicy roasts." Vinum

"Rich ruby red colour with brightening edges. Accessible on the nose, ripe berry fruit, sour cherry, dried violets, some coconut on the finish. On the palate with a certain light-footedness, ripe fruit tannin, juicy, subtly vegetal on the final." Falstaff

"The Vino Nobile di Montepulciano Silìneo 2020 opens with hints of white pepper, chalk and dried blueberries. It is silky and plush with tart forest fruits that give it tension. A salty, mineral core provides a savoury character. Wild herbs and liquid stone characterise the finish, while the 2020 ends with a light structure and medium length." Vinous

"Notes of cherries, olives, oranges and peach pits here, with some vanilla. It’s lively and balanced, with a medium body, nicely polished tannins and a long, firm yet supple finish." James Suckling

Subtle ruby red colour with light reflections. Warm, well-dosed bouquet of wild berries, cherries and some smoke. Fine tannins on the palate, with plenty of juice and fruit at the core, floral and spicy notes, compact. A fine salty vein in the harmonious finish. SUPERIORE.DE

"Ruby dark red; peppery notes, arouses curiosity; juicy, sweetness, balanced, length, drinky, pleasing." (JLF) Merum

"Very typical, elegant, with polished tannins and full of fruity charm, sour cherry, some chocolate, sweet fruit melting, round." Weinwisser

"Pleasing nose of black cherries, flanked by plum notes and tobacco; polished attack, finely chiselled acidity, fruity and mineral finish." Vinum

"Medium ruby red colour with a slightly brightening rim. Leather, ripe cherry and some undergrowth on the nose, then slightly spicy and balsamic. Grippy on the palate, with gripping, somewhat rustic tannins, then beautifully juicy on the finish. To savoury Tuscan dishes." Falstaff

"One of the best-balanced 2020s, Gracciano della Seta's Vino Nobile is discreetly padded with an abundance of dark, fleshy cherry, yet remains straightforward and sculptural. The tannins are slightly steely but yield smoothly, while zesty, citrusy acidity provides graceful support. Nuances of forest, leather and mint interweave with notes of orange that linger." Decanter

"This spicy red wine contains notes of dried herbs and olive pits, which mingle with cherries and blood oranges. It is medium-bodied, juicy and beautifully balanced. Fine tannins. Fresh and flavoursome finish." James Suckling

This Moscato from Molise is exceptional and rich in aromas. Delightful bouquet of figs, apricots and candied citrus fruits, finely creamy on the palate, with well-dosed sweetness and a touch of tingling acidity. Long and dense on the finish, leaving a mouth-flattering but lively mouthfeel. SUPERIORE.DE

Strong, bright ruby violet. Appealing nose with rich notes of blackberries, dark cherries and plums. On the palate dense, sturdy tannin, builds up multilayered, juicy and gripping, profoundly long. SUPERIORE.DE

"A bouquet of minty herbs, dried cherries and spiced citrus peels wafts up from the 2019 Sangiovese Superiore Riserva Romagna Pandolfo. This is a soft and round Sangiovese, balanced by brisk acidity. Dark red fruit waves contrast traces of sour citrus. Tangerine mixes with dried fig through the long, tension-filled and lightly structured finale. The 2019 Pandolfo marks a big step up in quality from past vintages." Vinous

Intense ruby red colour. Harmonious interplay of fruit, barrel and spice flavours on the nose, hearty and engaging on the palate, reminiscent of dark fruit, violets and spices. Despite its seriousness, the final is full of warmth and elegance. As always with the completely organic-certified winery: top value. SUPERIORE.DE

"Olives, tomato leaves, mushrooms and cherry stones on the nose. It’s medium-bodied, nicely balanced and with tasty salty and savory undertones. From organically grown grapes." James Suckling

"This organic Classico made from a blend of Sangiovese and other red grape varieties shows all the typicality of the terroir. Beautiful freshness on the palate, which tastes of red mulberry, with a hint of pink pepper and marjoram. Salty on the palate, with a fruity finish." Luca Gardini

Intense ruby red, persistent, fruity bouquet with notes of wild berries, violets, cloves and cinnamon as well as sweet tobacco flavours. Concentrated, fleshy, tannic, dark fruit flavours on the palate. On the finish, the spicy flavours merge with a pleasant fruity note. An unbeatable wine every year at a very attractive price! SUPERIORE.DE

"Bright ruby red with a violet tinge. Lots of blackberry on the nose, subtle earthy notes as well as vanilla and pepper. Animating and lively on the palate, ripe tannins, lively acidity, spicy, medium-long final." Falstaff

"Crunchy red cherries and raspberries, followed by lifted floral notes and spices with a hint of chopped bell pepper. Medium body, with chewy tannins and refreshing acidity. Simple but delightful. From organically grown grapes." James Suckling

"The 2020 Montecucco Rosso Riserva lifts from the glass with a whiff of reduction that slowly blows off to reveal an herbal-tinged mix of wild strawberries, cedar and spice. This is rich and velvety, with masses of ripe red fruits and tactile mineral tones complicated by a note of sage. Brisk acidity maintains balance. It tapers off with a woody sensation, like a pine spice box, as hints of chalk dust and inner rose fade. The warmth of the vintage imparted a fleshy, nearly opulent character to the Rosso Riserva." Vinous

Successful Sangiovese interpretation of the Romagna identity, which is particularly appreciated by wine lovers of slimmer, Burgundian-style wines. Bright, brilliant ruby red colour. Classic, traditional, lively and flavoursome on the palate, but always balanced, elegant and subtle rather than bold. SUPERIORE.DE

"Woodsy aromas of fall alongside spiced cherries and dried roses lift from the glass of this elegant wine. Savory with seemingly endless flavors of black tea, rosemary, dried blackberry and underbrush that meld into the fine and elegant tannins that frame the wine so well that each note of the wine is in harmony. Perfect with your next roasted or earth-driven meal." Wine Enthusiast

Classically elegant Pinot Blanc with beautiful fruit fullness and the typical flavours of apple, grapefruit and pineapple. Well-balanced acidity, impressive freshness and a fine salinity. Pure drinking pleasure! SUPERIORE.DE

"The 2022 Pinot Bianco Penon opens with a lovely bouquet of ripe apples and sweet spice complemented by hints of wet stone. It's soft and round with a pretty inner sweetness and ripe orchard fruits that take on a crunchy sensation toward the close. It finishes fresh and long, with raw almond and lifting mint notes." Vinous

"Crystal clear and bright with various flowers such as lilac and sliced apples and pears. Medium-bodied with intense finesse. Mineral with crushed stones. Serious and concentrated." James Suckling

Trentanni is a complex, dense wine made from equal parts of Sangiovese and Merlot. Intense bouquet of dark fruits, round and soft on the palate with lots of fruit and long. SUPERIORE.DE

Strong dark red colour in the glass. Bright fresh and juicy red berry and cherry fruit on the nose and in the mouth, with a delicate herbal component and notes of mint, flowers, sultanas and cinnamon. The finish is long, bright and juicy with hints of flinty minerals adding further complexity and drinking pleasure. The finish is bright, pure and leaves you wanting more ... SUPERIORE.DE

"Fascinating pure Monica, processed with fine maceration and aged in barriques. Classic nose of bramble plum, with notes of underbrush and myrtle, then balsamic and cinnamon touches. On the palate, it has brackish tannins, a fruity return and spicy hints." Luca Gardini

"Il Rogito" - "The contract". The names of Gerardo Giuratrabocchetti's wines are reminiscent of his father's world as a notary.

Il Rogito is indeed a splendid rosé from Basilicata. Strong, shiny light red, aromas of red berries underlaid with the scent of autumn leaves and spices. Fresh flavour, soft and long. Robust and very versatile. SUPERIORE.DE

"The 2022 Il Rogito is a deep, translucent red that bursts from the glass with an abundance of crushed cherries, strawberries and sweet spices. It is round and comforting, with an ample concentration of wild berries energised by a cooling acidity. Rosy, floral notes emerge towards the end. Classically dry, it finishes with medium length and a hint of red candy. Il Rogito is a wonderfully characterful and complex Aglianico Rosato." Vinous

Madoro is an elegant cuvée of dried grapes of Cabernet Sauvignon and Marzemino. Overwhelming bouquet with intense tones of ripe and dried fruits, nuts and almonds. Full-bodied on the palate with an exceedingly powerful body, a fine-nerved structure and a long finish. A beautiful nectar that matured for 13 months in barriques. SUPERIORE.DE

Rich ruby red colour, precise, clear fruit on the nose with a very light mineral note. Pleasant, beautifully smooth flavour, round and of good substance. A Rosso di Montalcino with a lot of charm. SUPERIORE.DE

"The 2021 Il Poggione Rosso di Montalcino offers medium weight fruit with dark cherry, wild plum and savoury spice. This is an excellent vintage with moderate summer temperatures and a long growing season, which is very favourable to Sangiovese, a grape that needs its time to mature and develop complexity. This Rosso also shows a particularly spicy character with nutmeg and cinnamon, which seems to come from both the grape skins and the 12 months in oak barrels." Wine Advocate

"The nose leads with earthy, umami aromas of balsamic and fresh soil, but fruit notes of cherry and blackberry gradually emerge. The palate runs with the fruit, but that fresh, almost stony earthiness persists to create a cool, bouncy feeling, like a sudden gust of wind. Acid acts as a whetstone for sharp tannins." Wine Enthusiast

"A juicy red with leather and undergrowth accents framing smoky cherry, plum and mineral flavours. Well-structured and long, with a solid grip of tannins on the lingering aftertaste. Offers fine intensity." Wine Spectator

"A beautifully spicy Rosso di Montalcino with cloves, dried flowers, sour cherries and orange peel on the nose. Creamy and medium to full-bodied, with chalky tannins and a ripe, chocolaty finish." James Suckling

"The 2021 Rosso di Montalcino immediately catches the eye, with a classic, dusty blend of dried cherries, worn leather and earthy tones, complicated by aromas of roasted meat. It is polished. A crisp minerality emphasises the pure red fruits, which are accompanied by a lively acidity. This leaves you wanting more, as the orange and cranberry flavours linger in the mouth for a long time. The 2021 is a fantastic, dynamic Rosso that makes me curious to see what the Brunello of the vintage will bring." Vinous
