Pemo Montepulciano d'Abruzzo
Montepulciano has long been one of Italys most important and versatile grape varieties. The grapes for PEMO Montepulciano are grown exclusively on hillside slopes in the Abruzzo region, at an altitude of at least 250 metres above the sea level. Montepulciano has a rich red colour, with a cherryish nose. A deeply characterful wine with an abundance of flavour, it's delightfully soft and velvety, with red and black berry fruits, and a smooth, gentle finish.
Tenuta Santodeno Sangiovese
The winemaking for this complex wine from Romagna follows the traditional method with a long maceration on the skin, daily pump over and 2 delestages (racking). Part of the grapes are harvested late and the vinification takes place separately. The wine is then aged in big French oak casks. It's a complex and intense wine with a ruby red colour. Cherry and violet notes on the nose are enriched by plum, berries and licorice scents, thanks to the partial drying process at the vines. The palate is full, round, spicy and persistent with sweet tannins. Try this with typical regional recipes, such as handmade pasta with meat sauce, roasts, grills and aged cheeses.
Mont'Albano Organic Pinot Grigio
Founded in 1985 by Mauro Braidot, this winery is in the heart of the Friuli Venezia Giulia region. Its claim to fame is its conversion to organic production before that was even a thing. 100% organically certified, this wine reflects the region's cool limate and gravel soils. It is fragrant and balanced with fresh acidity and vibrancy. Pair it with creamy barramundi tortelli
Bastioni Della Rocca Leggero Appassimento
This affordable red immediately caught out attention having been rated 98 points by Italian wine critic Luca Maroni. The word appassimento is Italian for "withering" and refers to a method of wine production in which grapes are dried for several weeks after harvest in special storage racks. The liquid evaporates and the aromas intensify with the concentrated fruit. A blend of Negroamaro (80%) and Primitivo (20%). Ruby red with orange reflections. Intense and complex with notes of ripe fruit and spices. Dry wine with good texture and supple tannins. Perfect with spicy pasta, red meat and mature cheeses.
Anno Domini ProseccoRose DOC

Soft red fruit (ripe raspberry and cherry), with flavours of strawberry sorbet, watermelon, and floral notes of roses, with a hint of sweetness balanced by a soft foamy mouthfeel and refreshing acidity. Ideal with smoked dishes, especially salmon, freshwater trout and mozzarella.
Villa Loren Icy Prosecco DOC Extra Dry
