Tuscany | Maremma

The name says it all: this rosato is reminiscent of the unconventional times of 1968 in its lightness and buoyancy. Pale pink in the glass, it exudes the scent of white fruits and virtually dances until the fruity-fresh finish. The overall impression is of a cheerful yet serious rosato with great drinking flow! SUPERIORE.DE

With the Pelofino, Elisabetta Geppetti has created a fruity-spicy cuvée of Sangiovese, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. Elegant aromas of dark fruits in the bouquet, on the palate wide and with a delicate pressure, yet beautifully balanced. A wine with an excellent price-pleasure ratio. SUPERIORE.DE

Slowly, the bouquet of this Sangiovese blend opens to reveal its wonderful scent of red berries and subtle hints of spices. On the palate, a natural concentration, immense softness and harmony, a well-structured tannic information acts as a counterpoint. SUPERIORE.DE

Grottolo Rosato has a rich pink colour, a delicate red winey bouquet and a juicy taste of wild berries and peach with a pleasantly balanced acidity. Spicy and fresh, compact, with a remarkably fresh flavour on the palate and a beautiful finish. SUPERIORE.DE

The grapes for Maurizio Castelli's new, crisp and fresh white wines come from a vineyard on Monte Bottigli, a "forteto" known to the locals for its wild and impenetrable nature. They ripen with a view of the panorama of the Tuscan archipelago and ideally embody the maritime character of the Maremma. Bright yellow with a bouquet characterised by floral and yellow-fleshed fruit aromas. On the palate, it has a medium structure, complexity and persistence, and its freshness makes it extremely enjoyable in the glass. For us, Costa Ovest is the ideal summer wine! SUPERIORE.DE

The dense, well-articulated Tuscan Montecucco Rosso Rigoleto made predominantly from organically grown Sangiovese grapes is extremely drinkable. The bouquet beguiles with beautiful aromas of dried plums and dark cherries. The focused and lively flavour is very attractive. SUPERIORE.DE

Classic Vermentino from the Montecucco region: intensely floral, fruity bouquet with clear notes of hawthorn, green apple, grapefruit and white peach. Fresh and juicy on the palate, the elegant acidity opens up a beautiful fan, then salty notes in the well-proportioned final. SUPERIORE.DE

"Fern and sage-like, restrained herbaceous character with mirabelle fruit. Light body with crisp acidity and a silky texture. Savory, very well integrated and persistent." James Suckling

Curtain up for a lively Italian rosato: bright orange-pink colour, delicate floral nose with hints of small red fruits. Delicate, fresh fruit on the palate, neither ripe nor sweet.

This single-varietal Sangiovese Rosato clearly stands out from the average swimming pool wine. SUPERIORE.DE

"Rosamundi, also known as 'Gallic Rose', is a structured rosé from 100% Sangiovese. Clear pink in colour, the wine offers a lovely bouquet of cherry with hints of strawberry and sour cherry. Dry, with moderate acidity, it finishes clean and fresh. Salmon and grilled prawns would pair wonderfully." Decanter

"A reduced nose of freshly poured tar and sulfur meets a luxurious contrast of muddled raspberry and strawberry, before hints of top soil and tobacco emerge. The palate of this wine turns to fresher red fruit, mostly cherry, with soil and gravel. Linear but substantial tannins and a firm backbone of acid work well together." Wine Enthusiast

"A lean yet fluid red wine with black cherry fruit mingling with tomato leaves, juniper and sanguine notes, with light tannins gracing the finish. Shows fine balance and length." Wine Spectator

"Sour cherries, salted plums, dried herbs, mushrooms and tomato leaves on the nose. Medium to full-bodied with fine tannins. Lots of juicy fruit on the palate with a herbaceous, slightly leafy character." James Suckling
