Vintage 2024

Straw-yellow Gavi di Gavi with a lively floral fragrance and a hint of exotic fruits, jasmine, lemon and golden apples. Delicate, self-contained, very harmonious flavour that finishes long and mineral with a fine pepper and pastry note. SUPERIORE.DE

Garofoli has been known for decades for its excellent sparkling wines. Here comes the new Rosé Frizzante made from 100% Montepulciano using the classic pet-nat method (Metodo Ancestrale), which is harvested in the last half of August and whose carbon dioxide is created almost unplanned by the almost complete fermentation of the sugar in the bottle. Bright salmon pink, floral, red berry notes, beautiful freshness, delicate mousseux and a fine yeast note on the final. Unfiltered. SUPERIORE.DE

Andrian's Burgundian classic finds its southern Alpine interpretation between 300 and 500 metres on calcareous clay-dolomite soils. These lower-lying sites offer the Pinot Bianco optimal ripening conditions: early morning sunshine with sufficient coolness for the thin-skinned, pressure-sensitive berries. Temperature-controlled fermentation in stainless steel and six months of refinement on the fine lees give Finado its characteristic texture and complexity.

Barbera with origin and attitude: La Villa has been Olim Bauda's favourite wine for decades – not because it is particularly loud, but because it seems so natural. No barrique, no spectacle, but plenty of character. The secret lies in the balance: fruit and freshness, elegance and energy – everything is there, nothing imposes itself. Bright ruby in the glass with a youthful violet colour. The bouquet plays on the fresh side: sour cherry, raspberry, dried herbs, a hint of violet and a delicate mineral note. On the palate, the typical tension of Asti-Barbera – juicy, clearly contoured, with supple tannins and fine length. A wonderfully authentic wine that breathes the soul of Piedmont – spontaneous, lively, unaffected. If you want to understand the essence of this grape variety, this is the perfect wine for every day.

A Cabernet with a Friulian signature: This elegant red wine is made from a blend of 90% Cabernet Sauvignon and 10% Cabernet Franc and matured entirely in stainless steel tanks – without any wood. It thus retains clear fruit, freshness and varietal typicity in the highest purity. The 2024 vintage developed under typical Colli Orientali conditions: warm days, cool nights and well-ventilated slopes ensured clean, expressive grapes. An intense ruby red colour in the glass. The nose opens with aromas of cassis, blackberry, a hint of green pepper and Mediterranean herbs. On the palate, this Cabernet is structured, with precise fruit, fine-grained tannins and lively acidity. An authentic representative of the grape variety that combines fresh clarity and strength of character. SUPERIORE.DE

A Sauvignon that clearly expresses its origin and grape variety – with freshness, tension and precise fruit. Matured exclusively in stainless steel tanks, it is crystal clear and unadulterated, entirely in the house style. Pale straw yellow in the glass with a greenish tinge. The nose is typical and pleasantly differentiated: gooseberry, yellowcurrant, green apple, hints of elderflower, lemon zest and a touch of mint. On the palate, the 2024 is lively and juicy, with lively acidity and a focussed, mineral core. The fruit always remains on the cool side, which clearly shows its origins in north-east Friuli. A characterful, easy-drinking Sauvignon Bianco with varietal identity, precision and a finely balanced freshness profile – ideal with antipasti, asparagus, fish or on its own as an elegant aperitif.

This rosato awakens in the glass with a delicate salmon pink colour, interspersed with a warm coral shimmer. Made from Cannonau and Nieddera, it is grown in the vineyards of the Sinis peninsula and the Terre d'Ossidiana – territories, characterised by volcanic soils and salty coastal winds. The grapes macerate for just a few hours and undergo controlled fermentation at a low temperature. Maturation takes place partly in stainless steel and partly in barriques – a combination that keeps freshness and structure in impressive balance. The nose convinces with a floral mix of rose petals, raspberries and citrus notes, carried by fine herbal spice and a mineral undertone reminiscent of sea air. Citrusy, clear and salty fresh on the palate – the fruit remains present, without sweetness, the acidity is refined, and the finish is long, elegant and with a hint of pink grapefruit.

Pale straw yellow with greenish reflections – the 2024 already shows its youthful vitality in the glass. Yellow citrus fruit, crisp green apple, a hint of mint and fine floral notes on the nose. The vintage was characterised by a cool spring and moderately warm summer, which gives the wine freshness and structure. Taut and lively on the palate, with precise acidity, salty minerality and a straightforward final. The ageing in stainless steel preserves the clear style of the house. A Vermentino with profile and an energetic character – ideal for summer enjoyment. SUPERIORE.DE

Tramonto d'Estate Rosato comes from south-east facing limestone slopes near Decugnano at 250 metres above sea level, where cool nights and clay-limestone soils provide ideal conditions. The Grenache grapes are harvested by hand in small crates. After gentle whole-cluster pressing and static clarification for 24 hours, temperature-controlled fermentation takes place at 16 °C. The wine then matures for four months. The wine then matures for four months on the fine lees.

Delicate salmon pink with a copper shimmer in the glass - a rosato that already radiates elegance visually. Light berries, white flowers, a hint of pink grapefruit and fine herbal notes on the nose. On the palate, the 2024 impresses with a smooth texture, well-integrated acidity and a fine minerality. The vintage brought balanced fruit and remarkable freshness, which is reflected in harmonious balance and subtle depth. Not a loud rosé, but a stylish, Mediterranean wine with fine pressure and cool finesse - ideal with antipasti, fish or simply on its own. SUPERIORE.DE

Oenologist Stephan Filippi deliberately selects special vineyards in Überetsch and Ritten for this Sauvignon Bianco, where dry sandy soils and the alpine climate give the grape variety its characteristic expressiveness. Controlled vinification after the harvest harvest takes place exclusively in stainless steel in order to optimally preserve the natural freshness and flavour. Straw yellow in colour with greenish reflections. In the glass, it immediately unfolds its typical vegetal spectrum: tomato leaves and nettles meet spicy sage, while yellow peach and lime provide fruity accents. Subtle acacia flowers round off the complex bouquet. On the palate, the delicate freshness paired with structural depth leads to a lingering, harmonious finish. SUPERIORE.DE

Pale straw yellow in colour with a fine, persistent perlage. The Moscato d'Autunno is Saracco's most intense interpretation of the house: made from musts obtained from Moscato Bianco di Canelli, which are pressed particularly carefully after the harvest, stored in cool conditions and later fermented in pressurised tanks – this preserves the purity, freshness and depth of flavour. The nose is characterised by orange blossom, white peach and lime zest, underpinned by thyme and a delicate hint of blossom honey. Sweet on the palate, but never heavy: the fine mousse carries juicy stone fruit, a lively, lemony acidity and a clear, mineral character into the long, fragrant finish. Very appealing and one of the best representatives of its kind every year. SUPERIORE.DE

In the warm coastal air of the south-east Sicilian limestone soils near Noto, Grillo thrives with a Mediterranean self-image – sun-kissed, but not heavy. The name Azisa comes from the ancient Arabic "Aziz", which means "precious" – a reminiscence of Sicily's multi-layered history. Brilliant straw yellow in the glass with greenish reflections. On the nose, an open, finely drawn spectrum of aromas: white peach, yellow citrus fruit, a hint of sage and orange blossom, plus delicate hints of sea salt and wet stone. Fresh, lively and pointed on the palate – with a clear acid structure, light phenolic tension and a dry, salty-mineral final. Azisa is a serious Grillo with a Sicilian soul – elegant, accessible and full of character. Ideal with antipasti, mussels or summery Mediterranean cuisine. SUPERIORE.DE
