Dieser Schiava hat ein typisch fruchtbetontes Bouquet nach Kirsche, Himbeere und Erdbeere. Am Gaumen fruchtig mineralisch und von fester, schlanker Struktur. Ein frischer Begleiter für jeden Tag. SUPERIORE.DE

"The Schiava grape produces softly contoured and delicate red wines that offer a mild texture and lean appearance not unlike a traditional Pinot Noir from Burgundy. The Peter Zemmer 2019 Alto Adige Vernatsch Schiava opens to aromas of wild raspberry, rose, lilac and white licorice. The wine's smooth and silky mouthfeel and its fresh berry flavors call out for some homemade fried chicken. With 14,000 bottles made, you get terrific value." Robert Parker

Strohgelb mit grünen Reflexen und einer breiten und bunten Palette an Fruchtaromen, die an Banane und Melone erinnern. Der saftige Geschmack ist frisch, lebhaft, mit angenehmer Fülle und von einer einladenden und anhaltenden Beständigkeit. SUPERIORE.DE

"The Peter Zemmer 2019 Alto Adige Chardonnay (closed in a screw cap bottle) offers an honest and straightforward interpretation of the grape. Chardonnay is presented with naked purity here, revealing tangy citrus, white peach, grapefruit and even a hint of saffron. This is a lean-bodied wine with the fresh acidity and easy personality to pair with finger foods or fried appetizers." Robert Parker

"A smoky, flinty chardonnay with sliced-apple, mineral and stone aromas and flavors. Nougat, too. Medium to full body. Flavorful finish." James Suckling

Konzentriertes Rubinrot mit granatfarbenen Reflexen. Zum überwiegenden Kirsch- und Beerenduft steuert das Holz ganz leichte Anspielungen von Röstkaffee bei. Voller und sehr intensiver Geschmack nach dunklen Beeren, ganz leicht nach Veilchen und Pflaumen, die kompakten Tannine werden von balsamischen Noten getragen, im Nachhall feine Süßholztöne. SUPERIORE.DE

"Of the many value reds offered by this estate, the 2015 Aglianico del Molise Riserva Contado is my favorite. The wine delivers the power and density that is attributed to this fabulous red grape, followed by warm-vintage aromas that are exuberant and generous. You get black cherry and blackberry preserves followed by light baking spice. This is a full-bodied wine that achieves careful balance." Robert Parker

"Aromas of blue fruit and wet earth with a hint of lavender. Medium to full body, firm and silky tannins and a long, flavorful finish." James Suckling

Fruchtige, florale und zart würzige Nuancen im Bouquet. Am Gaumen mittlere Textur, angenehm rotbeeriger Geschmack. Ein charaktervolles Trinkvergnügen. SUPERIORE.DE

"This pretty Tuscan Rosato opens to a pale pink color with some polished copper shine. The wine is fresh, light and bright with pink grapefruit, lilac, blood orange and a touch of Thai basil or lemongrass that is unique to this blend of grapes. In the mouth, RosaMati plays it easy and safe with pretty acidity and streamlined appeal." Robert Parker

"A fresh, fruity rosé with lots of strawberries, salt and stones with a medium body, creamy texture and a tangy finish. It’s bright and spicy at the end." James Suckling

Funkelnd rubinrot mit intensivem Duft nach reifen Waldbeeren, konzentriert, vollfruchtig und doch elegant der Geschmack, der in einem frischen, geschmeidigen Abgang ausklingt. SUPERIORE.DE

"The 2017 Sicilia Benuara (with fruit from the Tenuta Presti e Pegni estate) is a beautifully rich, memorable and concentrated Sicilian red blend. The bouquet unravels to black fruit intensity with barbecue spice, savory leather and crushed peppercorn. This robust red wine offers ample body and intensity and would pair next to roasted suckling pig on the spit. This is always a great value choice." Robert Parker

"Made with 70% Nero d'Avola and 30% Syrah, this opens with aromas of black-skinned berry, bay leaf and sandalwood. The full-bodied, juicy palate offers blackberry jam, star anise and black pepper alongside chewy tannins." Wine Enthusiast

Eleganter, feingliedriger Grauburgunder; duftet nach wilden Kräutern, im Geschmack angenehm frisch und saftig, geröstete Mandelnote im Nachhall. SUPERIORE.DE

"The Sirch 2019 Friuli Colli Orientali Pinot Grigio is a beautifully accurate and precise expression of this versatile wine grape, revealing a pretty golden color with a distant drop of shiny copper. In the hands of this estate, and thanks to the undeniable imprint of its territory, this wine reveals more dimension and character than you would find in your standard Italian Grigio. The links to Friuli Venezia Giulia are evident in the bright quality of fruit on display here and the subtle mineral notes that give it backbone. They were able to provide some excellent value and a sure pairing partner to steamed mussels with fries." Robert Parker

Klassischer Weißburgunder mit dem Duft reifer Äpfel und Birnen. Eleganter, ausgewogener, harmonischer Geschmack. Finado ist kein bisschen verspielt oder gar einfach gestrickt, sondern wirkt sehr erlesen. SUPERIORE.DE

"The 2019 Alto Adige Pinot Bianco Finado opens to a luminous, light straw color that reflects the ambient light. This vintage shows zesty and very balanced results with pear, Golden Delicious apple, crushed limestone and a touch of spicy saffron. These aromas are characteristic of dolomitic calcareous soils. Winemaking is simple in stainless steel, with a brief sur lie aging of six months. The wine sports a crisp, lean-bodied mouthfeel, but there is enough acidity and mineral-driven linearity to drive the wine long over the palate." Robert Parker

"Pure aromas of ripe red apples with some cream undertones. Medium to full body and round, creamy texture. Plenty of fruit and a delicious finish. All there and delicious." James Suckling

Sattes Rubinrot mit violettem Einschlag, der typisch kirschige Geschmack mit Noten von Rosen und Bittermandeln umschmeichelt den Gaumen. Dieser Dolcetto glänzt mit kraftvollem Körper und dem fruchtig-knackigen Abgang. SUPERIORE.DE

"The G.D. Vajra 2019 Dolcetto d'Alba is a dark and exuberant wine that offers a naked and pure interpretation of this easy and food-friendly grape. Dolcetto d'Alba is the kind of wine I'd love to pair with my favorite broccoli rapini and spicy sausage pizza from a wood oven. Dark cherry, blackberry and prune segue to bitter almond and tilled earth." Robert Parker

Tadelloser Pinot Bianco in glanzklarem Hellgelb mit sauberen Obstaromen und lebendiger Mineralität. Birne, Quitte und blumige Erinnerungen am Gaumen, dazu eine brillante, cremige Textur. Der feingliedrige Weißburgunder gehört zum Markenzeichen der Kellerei. SUPERIORE.DE

"Lots of cooked apples, dried flower petals and hints of pie crust on the nose, following through to a full body with creamy texture and a delicious finish. Lots of fruit." James Suckling

Schlanker, sehr typischer Südtiroler Chardonnay. Im Glas entdeckt man sofort den Charakter der internationalen Rebsorte und die Typizität des Alto Adige. Gute Struktur und belebende Frische. Wir meinen, das ist so ziemlich das Größte in dieser Preisklasse. SUPERIORE.DE

"Aromas of flint, dried apples and some cooked pears follow through to a medium body with cooked-apple and pear flavors. It’s fruity and delicious on the finish." James Suckling

"The Cantina Terlano 2019 Alto Adige Chardonnay Tradition is a lean-bodied expression with just enough texture and creaminess to accompany shellfish dishes or white meat. The wine pours from the bottle with lightness and luminosity, imparting aromas of melon, peach, white almond and a touch of dry Mediterranean herb. These elements come together with seamless transitions and pretty energy. This is a widely available value wine, that really hits the spot, especially on a warm and sunny afternoon." Robert Parker

Helles Rubinrot. Bric del Salto interpretiert auf direkte und klassische Art die berühmte piemonteser Rebsorte. Fruchtiges Bouquet verbindet sich mit der für Neive typischen Würze. Am Gaumen wiederum klar, mit präziser Frucht, der richtigen Dosis feinen Tannins - und über allem liegt eine begeisternde Frische. SUPERIORE.DE

"The well-priced Sottimano 2018 Dolcetto d’Alba Bric del Salto opens to a lean appearance with a light garnet color. This comes as a surprise, as Dolcetto tends to delivers much darker colors and richer saturation. The Sottimano house style embraces elegance, grace and fragility. These goals are achieved effortlessly here, and again, the big surprise is that the exuberant and freewheeling intensity of the Dolcetto grape can be harnessed so effectively to reveal understated aromas of wild cherry, crushed stone and balsam herb. I recommend you buy this wine by the case, not the bottle. This is a lot of fun at low cost." Robert Parker
