Vintage 2025

A delicate salmon pink with coppery highlights – a rosé that exudes Mediterranean elegance even in the glass. Made from Nero d'Avola (30-year-old vines) grown on the hillsides near Noto, where limestone soils and sea breezes lend the wine freshness and character. On the nose, redcurrant, sour cherry, a hint of hibiscus and subtle spice. On the palate, it is juicy, light-footed and with well-integrated acidity that combines freshness with drinkability. A Sicilian rosé with style and lightness – ideal for warm evenings, dreams of the sea and those little escapes from everyday life. SUPERIORE.DE

A Vermentino with lightness and voice that epitomises the granite landscape of Gallura as well as the fresh sea breeze. The name Limizzani is reminiscent of ancient Mediterranean places of worship and lends the wine a mystical flavour – a northern Sardinian reminiscence that resonates in every sip. The grapes come from our own vineyards near Arzachena. Hills with sandy-granitic subsoil, close to the coast and aerated. The limestone-rich soils provide minerality, while the Atlantic wind adds freshness – the result is a refreshing base note with aromatic clarity. The style in the vineyard and cellar follows a purist path: Hand-picking, gentle pressing, static temperature fermentation in stainless steel and around six months on the fine lees, no wood notes, but maximum varietal purity.

The ruins of Pfeffersburg Castle tower above the village of Nals – a medieval structure that gave the wine its name. And the name is more apt than it sounds: ‘Pfeffer’ (pepper) describes the aromatic heart of the Edelvernatsch – —that delicate, peppery-fruity interplay which sets this native South Tyrolean variety apart from any other red wine grape in the region. The Pfeffersburger comes from St. Magdalena near Bolzano, one of South Tyrol’s most traditional Edelvernatsch vineyards. Steep slopes on porphyry-rich soil, at altitudes of 250 to 350 metres, hand-harvested. After fermentation in stainless steel, the wine matures for seven months in 80-hectolitre oak barrels – — large and neutral, used solely for texture.

NM – two letters, two villages, one cuvée. Nals in the north, with its mineral-rich porphyry and limestone gravel soils at higher altitudes. Margreid in the south, with its broodinglimestone soils in the sub-Mediterranean climate of the lower Adige valley. What has set this winery apart since 1932 is precisely this dialogue between two different terroirs – and the NM is its most direct, inviting expression. 70% Chardonnay brings body and texture, whilst 30% Sauvignon Blanc contributes aromatic freshness and vibrancy. The Ora, the warm afternoon breeze from Lake Garda, ensures even ripening in both vineyards. Hand-harvested, clarified must, three weeks in stainless steel, five months on the fine lees. Screw cap – a deliberate commitment to freshness.

The eponymous hill of St. Magdalena in the north of Bolzano gives this authentic South Tyrolean classic its unmistakable character. The autochthonous Vernatsch and Lagrein grape varieties grow harmoniously side by side on the loose moraine debris soils of the historic vineyards of St. Magdalena, St. Justina and Leitach between 200-500 metres above sea level – a symbiosis that has epitomised the essence of South Tyrolean viticulture for centuries. The traditional cuvée benefits from the ideal climatic conditions of the protected slopes above Bolzano, where warm days and cool nights give the grapes their characteristic balance between fruitiness and elegance. The geological composition of the glacial debris soils ensures optimum drainage and gives the wine its typical mineral structure.

The steep slopes of St. Magdalena near Bolzano, between 300 and 350 metres above sea level, are home to this legendary South Tyrolean red wine speciality. The autochthonous Vernatsch grape thrives here in ideal climatic conditions on moraine debris soils facing south and south-east. The cuvée of 90% Vernatsch and 10% Lagrein is vinified by the renowned St. Michael-Eppan winery, which has been one of the leading co-operatives in South Tyrol since 1907. The grapes are hand-picked at the beginning of October and carefully selected. After fermentation in stainless steel tanks, the wine undergoes malolactic fermentation before being matured in steel tanks.

The vineyards are situated 15 metres above sea level, facing west, on soils composed of river sediment with a sandy texture. The coastal sunshine shines through in the radiant straw-yellow hues of this wine. The fresh bouquet offers notes of lemon and freshly cut green apples, along with hints of mint and sage; these Mediterranean impressions are also reflected on the palate. A delicious, lingering and highly versatile Vermentino from western Tuscany. SUPERIORE.DE

A vibrant cherry-pink colour with a silvery rim – this Cerasuolo is fresh, lively and has a clearly defined structure. It has aromas of red fruits: sour cherry, raspberry and a hint of rose petal. On the palate, it offers lively acidity, delicate fruit and a pleasant salty minerality. Ageing in stainless steel preserves the freshness and purity of the Montepulciano grape. An uncomplicated, characterful rosé, ideal with antipasti, seafood or balmy summer evenings – light, regional and reliably charming. SUPERIORE.DE

The Garofoli winery is a true gem amongst the winemakers of the Italian Marche region and is renowned for its terrificVerdicchio from the Castello di Jesi DOC. It is therefore no surprise that this family-run business is now also demonstrating its capabilities in the Matelica DOC. It is from here – mostly from the higher-altitude vineyards – that some of the finest examples of their kind come: complex, mineral, fresh and long-lasting.

A wine of contrasts: Müller-Thurgau (70%) and Gewürztraminer (30%) – typically Nordic grape varieties – find a surprisingly ideal terroir on the slopes of the extinct volcano Monte Vulture. Founded in 1998, the Terre degli Svevi winery near Venosa, named after the Hohenstaufen dynasty and their king Manfred, utilises the volcanic soils and the strong day-night fluctuations to fully exploit the aromatic properties of these varieties. The grapes are harvested by hand at the beginning of September, left briefly on the skins and fermented at low temperatures in stainless steel. Two months of ageing on the lees round off the wine.

A Gavi that sits immediately on the palate – fresh, clear and elegant. Cortese from sun-drenched, high-altitude slopes around Gavi, pressed in stainless steel and designed to present freshness and minerality in crystal-clear form. Full concentration on the terroir. Straw yellow in the glass. A lively, aromatic bouquet of ripe apple, yellow pear, white flowers and a fine citrus note, complemented by a delicate hint of spring herbs and limestone. Taut yet soft on the palate. The fruit is juicy, the lively acidity adds tension and a subtle saline-mineral tone gives the wine structure. The finish is harmonious, clear and fresh, almost dancingly elegant. A (not only) summery all-rounder that is an instant delight – ideal with antipasti, white fish, asparagus or simply on its own with the first glass of the evening after work. SUPERIORE.DE

Rosamundi is one of the oldest rose species in Europe – the Gallic rose, cultivated by the Greeks and Romans, cultivated in medieval gardens and recognised as one of the most important of its kind in the 19th century. Morisfarms has chosen this name for a rosé that does it justice: historically rooted, botanically precise, with a quiet elegance. 100% Sangiovese from the Poggetti estate in Massa Marittima – clay-rich soils, south-west exposure, seven kilometres of sea air. The grapes are harvested in mid-September. What follows is the decisive factor: The skins are removed immediately after gentle pressing – no contact with the skins, vinification like a white wine. Fermentation in steel under dry ice protection, 15 days on the fine lees, fresh in the bottle.

High-altitude south-facing slopes between 300 and 750 metres give this Pinot Bianco its characteristic elegance. Sourced from carefully selected vineyards around Bolzano, the current vintage combines typical South Tyrolean precision with lively freshness. Clay and limestone soils, together with marked temperature fluctuations between day and night, create ideal ripening conditions for Pinot Bianco. It appears straw-yellow with greenish highlights in the glass, whilst the nose delights with aromas of pear, apple and subtle peach. On the palate, the wine is both fresh and opulent, with a harmonious structure and lingering minerality. The controlled ageing in stainless steel tanks preserves the finesse typical of the grape variety, making it the ideal accompaniment to asparagus dishes and fish. SUPERIORE.DE

A wine that tells of its origins and is also an invitation – naracu is an expression of Sardinian culture turned to stone, named after the mighty nuraghi that dominate the landscape. In the glass, Naracu is a medium-deep ruby colour with a delicate violet hue. The nose is precise and inviting: red berries and redcurrants, a hint of Mediterranean herbs and subtle mineral notes that give a sense of the Nordic wind. Clear and fresh on the palate – lean structure, juicy fruit and lively acidity. The finish is elegant, energetic and characterised by salty, mineral notes – a light pressure that lingers for a long time. Naracu is a Gallura-Cannonau that combines origin and vibrancy – it cools, refreshes, but remains present. A purist red wine for modern palates: respectful, always harmonious and charmingly captivating. SUPERIORE.DE

Roberto Anselmi is the eternal rebel in the Soave region – a man who turned his back on the Soave DOC consortium in 2000 because, among other things, he disliked mass production. For over 40 years, he has been proving in the hills of Monteforte d'Alpone that Garganega is capable of great things. His vineyards on volcanic tuff and limestone between 220 and 350 metres above sea level provide the basis for the San Vincenzo – an "irreverent" and no less exciting cuvée made from 70 per cent Garganega, supplemented by Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc.

Costamolino brings Sardinia's characterful clarity to the glass – a typical and very popular Vermentino that promises freshness and depth in equal measure. The grapes ripen on limestone and clay-rich hillsides around Selegas, where the sea breeze and sun create perfect ripening conditions. After gentle pressing and temperature-controlled fermentation in stainless steel, the wine rests for several weeks on the fine lees – for elegance without weight and finesse without edge.

Apulia is the heel of the boot – surrounded by two seas, the Adriatic to the east and the Ionian Sea to the west. Cool breezes moderate the summer heat, the sandy limestone soil stores the heat of the day and releases it again at night. Fiano Minutolo grows in this climate – also called "Latina Bianca" here in Apulia – on vines over twenty years old from the Masseria Li Veli. The nickname "Minutolo" describes what the eye sees: Small, compact berries with concentrated flavours. Harvest at the beginning of September, fermentation at a maximum of 16°C in steel, ageing in steel. No interventions that remove the wine from its origin.

Chardonnay without wood, Zenato favours pure fruit with Santa Cristina. The grapes come from the single vineyard Podere Massoni south of Lake Garda, where 30-year-old vines are rooted in moraine soil. Harvested at the beginning of September, fermented at 16–18°C in stainless steel, then matured on the fine lees for four to five months. Straw yellow in colour with green reflections. Yellow fruit on the nose – apricot, ripe apple – accompanied by a subtle hint of hazelnut and flint. Full-bodied on the palate, but not heavy, with juicy fruit and fresh acidity. The finish has a fine mineral note reminiscent of the glacial soils. Versatile with freshwater fish, poultry or creamy pasta. Serve at 9–10°C. SUPERIORE.DE

There is a moment in the history of Lambrusco that changed everything. In 1993, the Medici family decided not to produce their finest wine from a blend of average grapes, but from a single vineyard: Tenuta La Rampata, near Gaida in Reggio Emilia. This was a bold move – for a grape variety that was considered a mass-produced commodity at the time. The Concerto became the world's first single-vineyard Lambrusco. And it proved that this idea was no act of hubris. 100% Lambrusco Salamino, organically grown on clay soils, trained using the 'cordone speronato' method, with yields well below the permitted maximum. Spontaneous fermentation in stainless steel, halted at the desired alcohol content, followed by a second fermentation using the Charmat method at the lowest possible temperatures – to preserve every hint of fruit. Officially certified organic since the 2020 harvest.

The name of this full-bodied, aromatic white wine comes from Arabic and means "lush garden on a breezy plateau". A deep straw-yellow colour with pale green hues. On the nose, notes of violet, elderflower, orange peel and apricot. On the palate, the bouquet blends with a rich medley of notes of apricot, pineapple and almonds. A very fruity Catarratto with substance. SUPERIORE.DE

In the glass, this Trebbiano displays a pale straw-yellow colour with slightly greenish highlights – a visual hint of freshness and clarity. The nose opens with green apples, citrus notes and white flowers, underpinned by a subtle hint of mineral freshness. On the palate, it is finely structured and balanced: lively acidity, delicate fruit, clear expression and a dry, slightly salty finish. Maturation in stainless steel preserves its precision and varietal character. An uncomplicated, invigorating wine with a Mediterranean character – perfect with light dishes or seafood. SUPERIORE.DE

Four denominazioni in one municipality: in Treiso, the heartland of Barbaresco, this is no exaggeration. Giorgio Pelissero, third generation, followed the fourth call in 2008: Moscato. His vines stand in the Munfrina vineyard, Sottozona Ferrere, at 350 metres, south-west exposed, in soils with red sand veins – planted between 1981 and 1998, the cellar is characterised by speed: manual harvesting in small boxes, destemming, cold pressing – hours, not days, separate grapes and must. Foaming in pressurised tanks, bottling under pressure.

Moscato d'Asti is one of the oldest aromatic wines in Piedmont – and Fontanile, north of Nizza Monferrato, has been one of its best vineyards for centuries. When Giovanni Agostino Bertolino acquired the Tenuta Bauda in 1961 and later the Cascina Centive in this very village, he followed a simple conviction: Where the soil is right, the wine needs little more than careful hands. 100% Moscato Bianco from organically farmed vineyards. Hand-picked, gentle pressing, short maceration time, fermentation in autoclaves at low temperatures for 20 to 30 days – the fine effervescence is created during fermentation. Fermentation is interrupted by cooling, microfiltration, bottling as early as November – two months after the harvest. It could hardly be fresher.

In the local dialect, "Melacce" means "apple orchard". Anyone familiar with the Collemassari vineyards will understand the choice: those windswept slopes near Cinigiano, where the Tyrrhenian Sea greets every breeze and bestows upon the grapes a salty freshness that no winery in the world can replicate. The vineyards lie at 320 metres; the sea is thirty kilometres away – close enough to taste. 100% Vermentino, temperature-controlled ageing in stainless steel. No oak, no intervention – everything that happens here takes place in the vineyard.
