La Sabla is made from Barbera and the two autochthonous red grape varieties Fumin and Petit Rouge. Dark violet colour, very full of character on the palate with soft tannin and animating acidity. SUPERIORE.DE

Just 6,000 bottles are produced each year of this extremely delicious and complex rosato made from Pinot Nero and the autochthonous grape variety Petit Rouge from vineyards in the communes of Aymavilles and Gressan. The grapes from these mainly south-facing sites have always been normally destined exclusively for the production of the famous Torrette.

Brilliant, pale old pink. Delicate, floral and fruity on the nose with distinct notes of strawberry and redcurrant. Fresh and taut on the palate with notes of white peach, a fine structure, mineral acidity and a fresh, spicy finish. SUPERIORE.DE

Petite Arvine - a speciality in the Aosta Valley and also in the neighbouring Swiss Valais. Costantino Charrère presses a strong, fragrant white wine from this variety. Clear straw yellow, floral and citrus notes in the bouquet. The taste is rich, full-bodied with hints of grapefruit and a long, mineral final. SUPERIORE.DE

Medium ruby, intensely smoky spice on the nose, delicate caramel, light orange note. Elegant texture on the palate, characterised by a fresh breed, sour cherries and red berries in the final. SUPERIORE.DE

"This red evokes juicy marasca cherry flavor, shaded by smoke and spice. Nimble and vibrant, with a silky texture and lingering, stony finish." Wine Spectator

A racy, forward and extremely complex Chardonnay. The multi-layered bouquet of meadow flowers, grapefruit and butter is in full harmony with the pleasantly spicy taste with good acidity and fresh length. SUPERIORE.DE

Well proportioned, highly elegant red whose fresh bouquet is reminiscent of raspberries, wild strawberries and peppers. On the palate, a highly interesting fruit and silky tannins on the finish. SUPERIORE.DE

The grapes for this fresh and very complex Pinot Grigio come from a single vineyard at an altitude of approx. 700m with a western exposure; only 3,200 bottles are bottled each year. This Pinot Grigio reflects both the alpine terroir and the clear varietal identity. Bright straw yellow, floral nose of lime, hawthorn and herbs. Firm, fresh on the palate with harmonious, tasty notes of apple and pear, then a mineral vein in the long, balanced finish. SUPERIORE.DE

On the nose, ripe dark fruits, sweet spices and toasted oak. On the full palate, the character, terroir and elegance of the Les Cretes style are on full display, especially in the refined way tannins and fruit form a symbiosis. SUPERIORE.DE

Fumin with a great aroma of red fruits, black pepper and tobacco, dark fruity on the palate, very well structured and with a persistent balsamic finish. SUPERIORE.DE

The second white top wine of the family farm and single-varietal Petite Arvine: Bright light yellow with an elegant, floral-mineral bouquet and notes of ripe apples and apricots. Clear, balanced taste, refined body and harmonious finish. SUPERIORE.DE

"Bright straw-yellow. Captivating aromas of lemon drop, yellow apple, balsamic oils, honeysuckle and anise. The palate offers lovely purity of fruit and a pliant texture, with luscious flavors of ripe orchard fruit and minty herbs. Nicely floral on the long finish. The high acidity showcases why Les Cretes decided to try their hand at making a brand-new sparkling wine with the Petite Arvine grape. This wine is made from 12-year-old vines planted near Arnad-Montjovet and is aged in stainless steel only." Vinous

"Dried flowers, lemon curd, peaches and toasted almonds on the nose. It’s medium-bodied with crisp acidity. Concentrated with creamy layers of ripe fruit and a gently saline finish." James Suckling

"This Petite Arvine is light and crisp, but it also delivers a glossy or viscous side with some of the thickness and flavors of well-ripened grape skins. The bouquet opens to orchard fruit and nectarine, and there is a musky quality that adds an extra layer of shading or depth. This white would do well with lobster or shellfish." Robert Parker

Neblù is an elegant spumante made from the autochthonous red grape variety Bacca Nera with a small percentage of Neblu (autochthonous variety of Bacca nera), vinified using the traditional method of bottle fermentation. Fruity nose of cherry, currant and small red fruits. In the glass with delicate pink reflections, fresh and fruity fragrance, on the palate with a fine and delicate perlage, smooth, fine and persistent. SUPERIORE.DE

Chardonnay Cuvée Bois - a white celebrated year after year with an elegant bouquet of citrus fruits, butter and vanilla. The taste, supported by good acidity and minerality, is captivating. SUPERIORE.DE
