Ampeleia

Unlitro di Ampeleia (1 Liters) is a remarkable expression of the vitality of the vineyard's youngest vineyards. Fresh, dynamic and with an enormous drinking flow. A relaxed wine, but by no means banal. SUPERIORE.DE

"A very pretty, light red with strawberry and cherry aromas and flavors and hints of spices and dried flowers. Citrus zest. Low tannins. Bright acidity." James Suckling

Kepos is the expression of Ampeleia - the symbiosis of three Mediterranean grape varieties. A medium-weight, fruity wine, which continues the unique style of Ampeleia with its refinement and linearity. SUPERIORE.DE

"Aromas and flavors of violet, blackberry, cherry and sweet spices mark this fluid, firmly structured red. Taut and balanced, with fine length and ripe, macerated cherry and iron notes lingering on the finish." Wine Spectator

This Trebbiano, fermented in a cement tank, is a true orange wine: copper yellow with amber reflections. Oxidative style with the scent of pome fruit, nuts and gingerbread. On the palate a wonderful freshness after yellow apple and pear, underlaid with a delicate acid wire. No off-the-peg wine, but all the more an experience that stays with you! SUPERIORE.DE

"A layered, delicious skin-contact white with aromas and flavors of sliced, cooked apples and pineapples. Full body. Phenolic, flavorful finish. A little cloudy. Mostly trebbiano with malvasia and ansonica." James Suckling

Brilliant ruby, attractive bouquet of blackberry and spices. On the palate a clear structure, lots of fruit, present tannins and a well defined acidity. A pure and beautiful wine. SUPERIORE.DE

"I have a soft spot for Alicante. This is fine and polished with bright acidity and a clean and beautiful finish. It's all about drinkability here. Made from biodynamic grapes." James Suckling

"Focused, with raspberry and cherry fruit verging on jammy, yet this stays fresh. Picks up earth and licorice accents as this plays out on the long finish." Wine Spectator

Deep, multi-layered and alive. In the nose a fascinating blend of sweet berries and dark cherries. The clear and fresh taste flows with fine fruit and good length. SUPERIORE.DE

"Ampeleia's 2016 Carignano is bold, flavorful and quite juicy, with tons of varietal charactater and nuance. Expressive floral and savory notes give the red berry fruit quite a bit of aromatic lift. In 2016, the Carignano is both unique and compelling." Antonio Galloni

"A beam of pure cherry and raspberry is backed by lively acidity and dusty tannins here. Though this tightens up for now, the finish is saturated with fruit." Wine Spectator

"Carignan works in Tuscany. Plenty of dried apricot and dark berry character here with a green tea undertone. Medium to full body, firm and silky tannins and a fresh finish. Made from biodynamic grapes." James Suckling

Brilliant ruby, attractive bouquet of blackberry and spices. On the palate a clear structure, much fruit, present tannins and a well defined acidity. A pure and beautiful wine. SUPERIORE.DE

"A spicy and bright red with dried fruit and lemon peel character. Turns peppery. Medium to light body. Cool wine from an overlooked grape." James Suckling

The fragrance is restrained and elegant, vinous, very finely balanced on the palate with delicious, spicy aromas and fabulous purity. SUPERIORE.DE

"Dark cherry, lavender, mint, cedar, leather and dried herbs infuse the 2016 Cabernet Franc. Deceptive in its mid-weight structure, the 2016 packs quite a bit of depth and concentration into its dark fruit, while remaining faithful to the house style. There is so much personality and character here." Antonio Galloni

"A tangy and fresh red with berry and cherry character and hints of bark. Medium body, firm tannins and a crisp finish. Drink now. Made from biodynamic grapes." James Suckling

"This has the profile and intense black currant, olive, iron and tobacco elements of Cabernet Franc from the Loire, with a distinctive Mediterranean twist of savory wild herbs and salinity. Shows fine balance and length." Wine Spectator

Ampeleia is the top wine of the estate and has been vinified exclusively from Cabernet Franc since 2015. A wine of personality and character, which, through its elegance and fruitiness, is a fascinating interpretation of the new and different Maremma. SUPERIORE.DE

"Brilliant ruby red with slightly brightening rim. Inviting nose with notes of goji berries, forest blueberries and raspberries, slightly resinous notes. Juicy and round on the palate, tannin with a good grip, firm pressure in the final." Falstaff

This Merlot is so strictly limited that it is not even on the winery's official price list. The grapes for this exceptional Merlot, exclusively bottled in just a few 100 Magnum bottles, originate from over 30 year old vines of the winery. Originally vinified only for our own consumption, we were able to purchase a few bottles for our customers.

Fresh notes of crunchy red fruits on the nose, with balsamic notes reminiscent of the vegetation of this upper part of the Maremma.

The body is defining, enveloping, rich and at the same time boundlessly elegant. This Merlot impresses with its precise response. The refreshing acidity gives it the tools for a long life. Blessed is the man who may call a bottle of it his own. SUPERIORE.DE
