The grapes for the Majé come mainly from the Garaxin hill above the village of Pogli at an altitude of about 250 metres. The vineyard is terraced and laid out with stone walls (called majé in the Ligurian dialect) and the clayey soil is rich in fossil micro- and macrofauna.

Bright straw yellow with greenish reflections. Intense and at the same time fine varietal bouquet of flowers, yellow peach, plus notes of aromatic Mediterranean macchia. Majé is characterised by elegance, freshness and a wonderful minerality. SUPERIORE.DE

Bansigu in Ligurian dialect means drive, verve and could not describe the character of this lively, typically Mediterranean red. It is mainly pressed from Granaccia, an autochthonous vine which, together with Rossese, Barbera and Cinsault, ensures great juiciness and freshness. Bright cherry red with ruby reflections. Intense and fascinating nose with notes of dog rose, strawberries, plums and raspberries. In the drink it is lively and light with a very interesting arc of tension, in the final it is fruity with invigorating acidity and a salty Mediterranean vein. SUPERIORE.DE

"Burdigai" is Ligurian dialect and means shrubs of the Mediterranean maquis. From a small and isolated terrace facing west, surrounded by Mediterranean shrubs, comes this truly original Rosato, which should not actually exist. Because the grape variety is unknown, it is alternatively called "Franseise" because it apparently comes from the south of France and not even the owners know the exact origin and age, nor do they know who planted the vines there in the first place. Nevertheless, the vines have been cultivated and cared for over decades and at some point the family council decided to press an independent rosé from them.

Intense coral pink, fine and original bouquet of pink grapefruit, raspberry and strawberry with subtle mineral notes. Very dry in the mouth, floral, with lively acidity and pronounced spiciness. Characteristic is the mineral-chalky impression at the back of the palate, which prolongs the wine's originality and tension. The lasting impression left by this exciting and full-bodied and pleasantly purist Rosato is a blend of elegance, finesse and uncompromisingness that is second to none. SUPERIORE.DE

The grapes for this single-varietal Vermentino come from three small stone-walled terraces of the Garaxin vineyard. The soils consist mainly of calcareous marine rock and are rich in micro- and macrofossil fauna. Around the vineyards grow forests and Mediterranean shrubs, which are essential for mitigating the hot and dry, very windy climate.

Bright and luminous straw yellow, the bouquet is fine and delicate of lemon peel with notes of cereals and aromatic herbs of the Mediterranean macchia. The strong drink is very spicy and typical of the grape variety with a hint of sea salt and dried herbs. SUPERIORE.DE

The grapes come mainly from the historic Russeghine vineyard above the town of Ranzo Borgo. The expression of the Pigato here is of particular depth and minerality, which is due to the exceptional terroir and the long ageing on the fine lees. Bright straw yellow with light green reflections. Fragrant nose of herbs, yellow fruit and traces of pine resin. Full and long-lasting taste with beautiful spiciness and aromas of citrus and almond, then at the end again this beguiling, deep minerality. SUPERIORE.DE

Pulin is the result of the rediscovery of the Granaccia grape, which is one of the most precious of the small wine region of Liguria and was almost extinct. The wines, produced in absolutely small quantities, have an excellent structure, Mediterranean radiance and remarkable ageing potential.

Intense and concentrated cherry red, Mediterranean bouquet of red fruits such as strawberry, blackberry, wild strawberries, plus fine hints of sweet spices and tobacco. On the palate, very harmonious with elegant, polished tannins and a very long and spicy finish. An impressive red of great complexity, elegance and finesse, here all components are impressively perfectly matched. SUPERIORE.DE

The Pigato grape has great ageing and maturation potential, especially in Liguria. U Baccan (Ligurian: the head) comes mostly from vines of the Russeghine vineyard, which are over 50 years old, produce a very low yield, and give it tremendous complexity.

Intense straw yellow with bright golden-green reflections. Impressive purity on the nose with beguiling hints of sage, thyme, peach, mango, cedar bark, acacia honey and silica. Enveloping, balsamic and mineral on the palate, then a hint of salty almond and candied citrus on the long, vibrant final. A Pigato in a class of its own in finest Riserva quality. SUPERIORE.DE
