Vintage 2022

Brilliant light straw yellow colour. Elegant aromas of gooseberry, smoke, some flint and lemon followed by a full body with powerful fruit and mineral nuances, very balanced, savoury and unmistakably high-class. SUPERIORE.DE

"Fresh and flavoursome on the nose with crushed apples, spicy herbs, mussels and citrus leaves. Medium-bodied, bright and lively with citrusy freshness, mouthwatering acidity and chalky minerality. Some salty undertones." James Suckling

"The 2022 Sauvignon is perfumed, casting a delicate array of wildflowers, tangerine and hints of incense from the glass. Seductively smooth and soothing upon entry, this quickly gains tension as zesty acidity and sour citrus tones collide over a core of tart green apple. Crisp and nearly crunchy in feel, the 2022 keeps the mouth watering for more while leaving a minty herbal tinge and salty flourish to linger on. Simply stunning." Vinous

"A Sauvignon of complexity and completeness, representative of the Capriva terroir. On the nose, notes of white apricot, then rosemary, bergamot and jasmine. Spicy and sweet on the palate, with a fruity note and a citrus finish." Luca Gardini

Complex and rich bouquet of citrus fruit and sage flavours. Excellently structured and consistent on the palate with a fresh acid wire. This wonderful Sauvignon offers multi-layered fruit notes and great harmony with a delightful grapefruit flavour on the long finish. Good ageing potential. SUPERIORE.DE

"The 2022 Sauvignon Zuc di Volpe blossoms slowly in the glass with a lovely blend of nectarine and wildflowers complicated by tangerine zest. This opens with a pretty inner sweetness as tart orchard fruits and ginger hints sweep across the palate. Residual acidity maintains a gorgeous balance as the 2022 finishes spicy and wickedly fresh, leaving the mouth watering for more. The combination of energy, vividly ripe fruit and power is stunning and promises many years of positive evolution." Vinous

"A very pure and chalky Sauvignon blanc, tangy but not herbaceous. Mineral, green apples and very gastronomic style. Ripe green apples, wet stones and nice and dry. Strict, but not demanding. Straightforward, quite long and mineral." James Suckling

Pithos Bianco is a great Orange Wine from the amphora made from 100 percent Grecanico, fermented completely on the skins. Complex bouquet of apple, pear, honey, mint and a hint of rosemary. Already young with lots of ripe fruit and spice, a little salt, with beautiful depth and purity in the interesting, persistent taste. Very good storage and ageing potential. Be sure to aerate sufficiently before drinking! SUPERIORE.DE

Very appetising Sauvignon Blanc from Tuscany, fermented in steel, wood and terracotta. Pale straw yellow in colour, with a beautiful aroma of light berries, mint, chamomile and wild flowers. Round, harmonious and fresh flavour that is vibrant and aromatic. Only 8,000 bottles are produced each year. SUPERIORE.DE

Fascinating, brightly coloured cuvée that smells of fresh fruit and flowers. Flavours of apple, pear and peach flatter the palate, well balanced and well-balanced. The fine mineral saline note on the finish is also delicious. SUPERIORE.DE

"A fresh white, with lovely verve and fine balance imparting an open-knit accessibility, carrying a pleasing range of poached pear and apricot fruit, fresh herb and milled white pepper accents. Reveals tangy notes of tangerine and pink grapefruit zest on the salty finish." James Suckling

"Lively citrus notes, followed by subtle flavours of mussels and wet stones. Medium body. Flinty finish at the end. Clean and crisp." James Suckling

"The Graci 2022 Etna Bianco has a pronounced mineral note that gives it additional sharpness and brightness. Over the years, the proportion of Carricante in the blend has increased. The salty-mineral profile of this grape variety takes centre stage. The wine has a very light golden colour and is already very drinkable." Wine Advocate

"Blend of Carricante and Catarratto. Notes of chinotto, yellow plums and lemony sage on the nose, almondy, salty and acidic on the finish, with a fruity, lemony and dried fruit aftertaste. Very long lasting." Luca Gardini

Magnificent, single-varietal Fiano and the white star from Planeta - and almost a legend. Complex flavour of flowers and yellow fruit. On the palate, this white wine is as refined as it is powerful. It expands with plenty of fruit, soft and very long. A fantastic wine! SUPERIORE.DE

"Attractive aromas of white nectarines, sliced lemons, orchid blossom and crushed stones. Spicy and slightly phenolic with medium body and crisp acidity. Clean and fresh with a delicate texture." James Suckling

"A layered melon element defines the nose, with a lemon undercurrent highlighting the fruit's subtle tartness, while a handful of raw hazelnuts in the background adds some weight. On the sophisticated, thoughtful palate, the flavors sweeten, but in a measured, admirable way." Wine Enthusiast

Racy and rich, the Dolcetto d'Alba Falletto from Serralunga near Giacosa's excellent Barolo sites. Its powerful style, dark, rich and ripe expression, firmly packed with fruit - a very special wine with beautiful potential. SUPERIORE.DE

Pinot Nero Rosé presents itself with a bright cherry red colour. The bouquet is captivating with fresh, fruity aromas of red berries, cherries and raspberries, dried herbs and a hint of chocolate. On the palate, the sophisticated wine convinces with its fresh acidity, delicate tannin and a long-lasting, refreshing finish. This is Pinot Nero elegance in typical Haas quality.. SUPERIORE.DE

Neri's classic Rosso di Montalcino opens with a bouquet of dark red fruits, forest floor, earthy minerality and peppery herbs. On the palate, soft textures lead to wild berry fruits, minerals and herbaceous flowers, while fine tannins slowly build towards the long and dramatic final. Hints of red and black fruits, tobacco and savoury spices round off the round and fragrant overall experience. SUPERIORE.DE

Trebianco is a golden yellow "natural/orange wine" made from Chardonnay, Traminer, Sauvignon Blanc and Trebbiano and matured in clay barrels. The initially reductive bouquet has hints of sweet tobacco, nutmeg, leather, honey, orange peel and spicy herbs. Fresh on the palate with vibrant acidity. Note: The wine is unsulphurised, unfiltered and fascinatingly special. An oxidative note and lees in the wine do not represent a lack of quality. SUPERIORE.DE

Aristocratic, amphora-aged Natural Wine made from 100 percent Zibibbo with a reductive, floral bouquet, notes of white and yellow stone fruit, plus a savoury, spicy herbal aroma. The aromas merge on the palate with great elegance, fine peach and exotic fruits, long, fresh, mineral and extremely interesting in the finish. Be sure to aerate sufficiently before drinking! SUPERIORE.DE

"Pale copper hue. Pure and scented nose with jasmine, apricots, loquat and nectarines. Full-bodied and nicely phenolic on the palate with fresh acidity and an ample, lightly saline finish. Only 11% alcohol. Lovely structure and intensity here. A wonderful skin-contact zibibbo." James Suckling

The 2022 Il Bianco is noble and elegant. Its exciting bouquet of citrus oil, white flowers, almonds and dried herbs is infused with energising rays. Very nuanced and flavoursome on the palate, with great intensity and elegance as it progresses. SUPERIORE.DE

This beguiling Gewürztraminer is one of the most exciting growths in the wine world and is the favourite of the Italians. Golden yellow with an aroma potpourri of roses, exotic fruits and oriental spices. Powerful and complex on the palate with discreet residual sweetness and a long finish. Gewürztraminer Sanct Valentin is an absolute top growth that promises wonderful drinking pleasure even after many years. SUPERIORE.DE

"Textbook gewurztraminer nose with lots of perfumes and spices. Lychee, cantaloupe, roses, freshly-cut vanilla and cinnamon spices. Mellow, dry and medium- to full-bodied on the palate with low, creamy acidity and a long, flavorful finish full of lychee and white roses." James Suckling

Sauvignon Sanct Valentin is probably the best-known white wine from the St. Michael-Eppan winery. It has been vinified from carefully selected single vineyards at the foot of the Mendelstock since 1989. Yellow-green in colour, dense bouquet of yellow fruit, gooseberry, elderflower and ripe redcurrant, smooth on the palate with elegant, floral fullness and crisp acidity. A great and very savoury top wine and probably the most award-winning white from the internationally highly respected winegrowers' cooperative. SUPERIORE.DE

"Bright, pale straw yellow with greenish reflections. Intense aromas of fresh elderflower and gooseberry on the nose, with hints of sage and citrus fruit on the finish. Very juicy on the palate, with a pleasant acidity structure, drinky, long finish." Falstaff

"An elegant white, light and supple, with delicate notes of chive blossom, Thai basil and pink grapefruit peel accentuating flavours of melon and gooseberry, stone, ground ginger and white pepper. Creamy finish." Wine Spectator

"Powerful Sauvignon nose with lots of gooseberry, guava, white asparagus and stones. Fresh and medium-bodied on the palate with intense flavour and length. Crisp, salted green apples on a medium-long finish." James Suckling

"The Sauvignon Sanct Valentin 2022 blossoms with a hint of sweet spice, which is replaced by minty herbs and green apples with lime flavour. It has a soft texture with juicy acidity and a balanced inner sweetness. Ripe fruit flavours saturate the palate. Despite its intensity, the 2022's finish is remarkably fresh yet savoury and leaves you wanting more." Vinous

"Silent greatness. Noble is he who is self-sufficient. Perhaps a little demanding and in any case sensitive. But has much sought-after qualities: Clarity, freshness, complexity." Michael Graf Goëss-Enzenberg, Weingut Manincor

Sparkling green-silver Sauvignon Blanc with intense and inviting aromas of grapefruit, lychee and white peach. Full-bodied and very racy on the nose, then mineral and distinguishedly lean with fine acidity and a subtle extract-sweet core. Very long. SUPERIORE.DE

Golden yellow, wide, floral bouquet with fine wood notes and distinct aromas of light fruits and freshly baked brioche. Full, round and persistent on the palate with an elegant structure, very long. SUPERIORE.DE

"Fine reductive nose with creamed apples, lemon zest, fine lees and flinty stones. Textured and almost full-bodied on the palate with fresh, high acidity and a subtle and rather mineral finish." James Suckling

"A little and a lot. Some call it Pinot Blanc. And yet. Our Pinot Bianco Eichhorn has an Alpine-Mediterranean flavour: bright and flowery like alpine meadows, long-lasting and spicy like the sea." Michael Graf Goëss-Enzenberg, Weingut Manincor

Eichhorn Pinot Blanc has a light golden colour with beautiful aromas of lemon peel, orange marmalade, some smoke and ripe pears. The flavour is clear, fruity and long. Modern classicism and casual elegance from Manincor. SUPERIORE.DE

"Highly elegant aroma with white flowers and peach, plus warm citrus fruit and yellow apple. Delicate and full of finesse on the palate, stimulating fresh acidity, citrusy, a hint of tannin gives the wine its fine, grippy texture." Weinwisser

"A crisp hint of lemon pith lends definition to the light and pleasingly plump notes of ripe melon and apricot, salted Marcona almond, ground ginger and white blossoms. This is bright and elegant, with a snappy, mineral-laced finish." Wine Spectator

San Polino's Rosso di Montalcino offers a strong mineral signature over bright cherries, cassis and herbs. Elegant and attractively layered on the palate with fine-grained tannins. Fresh, juicy and light on the long finish, which is very animating. A stylish red that impresses with its unobtrusive style. SUPERIORE.DE

Medium cherry red colour. Tobacco, leather and liquorice on the nose, with a beautiful cherry aroma on the palate, supported by a good acidity and tannin structure. An excellent interpretation of Sangiovese with a great value. SUPERIORE.DE

Deep golden yellow in colour. Sweet, spicy aromas of acacia honey, burnt sugar, mango and liquorice on the lush nose. The palate is also multi-layered and rich with opulent flavours of grapefruit, passion fruit, acacia honey and cinnamon, and more than enough acidity to keep it from being broad. The finish is long and beguilingly sweet. Roen is hardly less complex than its more famous "big brother" Terminum and is certainly a spectacular sweet wine. Here, residual sugar, acidity and alcohol content are in marvellous harmony. SUPERIORE.DE

"Somewhat dried vegetal to herbaceous, floral and a hint of smoky nose with yellow fruity and vegetal aromas, a little orange zest and earthy notes. Firm, very sweet fruit with fine tart, partly yellow spice, floral and herbaceous nuances, some smoke, candied fatty nuts and citrus zest, dense and persistent on the palate, fine, quite lively acidity, some grip, certain depth, ethereal traces, sea buckthorn again, very slightly oxidative tones, very good to long, sweet finish with fine juice and spice." Wein-Plus

IbBianco is a blend of Vermentino and Grechetto and smells wonderfully of candied apricot and peach. Elegance and finesse in the powerful fruity and complex taste, which lasts long and with a certain coolness and pleasant freshness. SUPERIORE.DE

Proud single-vineyard Sicilian in a small edition made from 100% Carricante. Fine bouquet of citrus fruits and apricots. Wonderfully juicy fruit on the palate paired with good structure, balanced acidity, fine minerality and appealing length. SUPERIORE.DE

Intense salmon pink. Seductive bouquet of cherry, raspberry, strawberry, floral notes and traces of tangerine.
