"The Cerasuolo d'Abruzzo Superiore Spelt 2022 is a deep red wine with orange-coloured reflections. It opens in the glass with a bouquet of sweet spices, rose petals and dusty dried cherries. It feels silky, almost heavy, with a nervous acidity that balances a cascade of ripe strawberries and candied citrus, stimulating the senses with savoury tension. The 2022 finishes with dramatic length, showing a forgivable hint of spiciness as red liquorice notes linger. This is a powerful interpretation of Cerasuolo Spelt, but one that is very balanced."

The Valpolicella Superiore from Allegrini is a fruity and at the same time very sophisticated drinking pleasure. The multi-layered flavours of blackberry and black cherry and the sweet melt on the palate find the perfect harmony and strength with a fine bitter almond component. SUPERIORE.DE

"Reductive, rich notes of blackcurrants, leaves, dark cherries and root spice. A classic blend of corvina, corvinone, rondinella and oseleta. Yet despite the obvious weight, there is a deft touch to the mid-palate and a detailed, fresh note to the sappy finish." James Suckling

Valpolicella Superiore Case Vecie is made mainly from Corvina and Corvinone grapes. It takes its name from the vineyard of the same name in Grezzana, where the ripening of the grapes is subject to strong temperature fluctuations between day and night: a climatic peculiarity that gives the wine a special spiciness on the nose and a completely unique polyphenol profile. Bright ruby red in colour with notes of cherries, vanilla and spices. Beautiful fruit and acidity on the palate, wonderfully balanced body. Juicy and long. SUPERIORE.DE

The Valpolicella Superiore Case Vecie from a single vineyard is simply stunning and is produced without the appassimento process." Vinous

A genuine Lambrusco cru from the 15-hectare "Vigna del Cristo" vineyard, which underwent a second fermentation using the Charmat method for 3 months in pressurised tanks. Salmon pink in colour. Smells of pink grapefruit and subtle hints of raspberries. Bold, fresh, lively and dry on the palate - perfect for fans of "zero dosage". Very fine perlage that lasts a long time. Lingers for a long time with fine tart fruit. Ideal as an aperitif, with mussels, oysters and cold fish starters. SUPERIORE.DE

Col Fondo has been part of the Adami product family since the early 1900s. Initially, grandfather Abele and later father Adriano bottled the wine in spring. This then began to ferment again in the warmer months of May and June, producing what is known in Veneto as "vin col fondo". The origin of the name is quickly explained: it is due to the yeasts that settle on the bottom of the bottle after all the residual sugar has been consumed, causing the wine to develop in an exciting way over time.

Exciting: Col Fondo can be drunk clear or cloudy with yeast to create new sensory experiences every time. Drinking it clear means discovering the classic notes of yeast, ripe fruit and also a light balsamic note such as mint, liquorice, thyme and eucalyptus. In this case, simply store the bottle upright and pour the wine carefully, separating it from the sediment that remains in the bottle. If, on the other hand, you prefer it cloudy with yeast, you are opting for a more original experience: the yeast aroma is emphasised, the aroma of ripe fruit lends a particularly intense balsamic note and the wine becomes stronger, richer and fuller on the palate. In this case, store the bottle horizontally and serve as normal. SUPERIORE.DE

"This wine is said to be a little cloudy due to the yeast still in the bottle, so don't worry. Impressive aromas of chamomile, honey, roasted apples and white tea pour from the glass. The structured palate shows notes of Asian pear and quince, with a leeky and tart finish." Wine Enthusiast

"Fermentation aromas of yeast, tamarind and biscotti, melded with salted lemon rind, tonic and rosemary. The finish is pithy and nicely phenolic, finishing with an emphatic bite. Long and clean. Best of all, thoroughly intriguing. Savory, refined and persistent. Loads of character." James Suckling

"Pretty and lifted aromas of preserved lemons, white flowers and spice delicately welcome you to this Chardonnay. Driven by mixed orchard fruit on the palate with an impressive texture that is not creamy but gives the wine weight and strucutre while remaining bright and crisp. A balancing act that is worth your time." Wine Enthusiast

Light golden yellow in colour, intense, multi-layered aroma, clear notes of lychee and grapefruit. Beautiful juicy fruit on the palate, initially playful, then full of spices. Very fine, fresh and not too heavy Gewürztraminer. SUPERIORE.DE

"This Gewürztraminer delivers an alluring bouquet of lychee, rose petals, and exotic spices. Its palate delights with a rich combination of tropical fruit and subtle spice, evoking the lush, vibrant landscapes of steep vineyards, warm days and cold nights. The wine's lingering, aromatic finish is a testament to the captivating allure of Alto Adige's natural beauty." Wine Enthusiast

Serafino's beautifully balanced Gavi del Comune di Gavi "Grifo del Quartaro" is fragrant and floral with star jasmine and acacia, followed by orchard fruit, citrus and salty minerals. The wine is lean and crisp with enough vigour to pair with fried prawns or calamari. SUPERIORE.DE

"The Enrico Serafino 2022 Gavi del Comune di Gavi Grifo del Quartaro is chiseled and tonic with citrus, white grapefruit, unripe peach and crushed oyster shell.

Pinot Grigio Turmhof is a rich Pinot Gris with a fresh scent of apple and yellow peach, pure and round in flavour, with strong fruit, delicate acidity, good length and always with the refinement of the house. SUPERIORE.DE

"Forward and inviting this beauty of a Pinot Grigio is loaded with aromas of ripe pears, melon, candied lemon zest and roasted nuts. The aging in wood rounds out the wine and the lees aging gives it a rich texture. Flavors of apples dominate the palate but there is more waiting in the wings, hibernating, asking you to wait just a little bit longer to see what can happen." Wine Enthusiast
