Wines from Italy
Italy has around 700,000 hectares of vineyards spread across all 20 regions. The geological and climatic differences are eminent. There is more than just one world between South Tyrol and Sicily. In addition, there are around 500 different grape varieties, countless viticultural traditions and a multitude of excellent winegrowers who interpret them in their own personal way. So there is a lot to discover. In our range, we pay tribute to this diversity and combine it with personal preferences - knowing full well that we can unfortunately only offer a fraction of what would actually be worthwhile.
Ca 'de Noci: Tree Dame 2021
Wein
- €23,90
On the label of the Tre Dame from Ca' de Noci you can read the following, possibly not entirely irony-free sentence: "Vino Frizzante da rifermentazione in bottiglia ottenuto dalle vigne di Sgavetta e rare varietà autoctone...". In German, this means: "A Frizzante created by secondary fermentatio...
Davide Spillare: Crestan 2020
Wein
- €14,90
Garganega is a variety that only produces good results if it is grown in a suitable terroir (limestone, volcanic rock, cool influences) and certain viticultural measures are observed. The decisive factor here is a reasonable grape yield that is as far away as possible from five figures per hectar...
Pranzegg: Miau! 2022
Wein
- €21,90
Martin Gojer's "Miau!" is a rosato frizzante fermented according to the metodo ancestrale. The metodo ancestrale is currently on everyone's lips under the name Pét-Nat (short for pétillant naturel) but is actually an old method of sparkling wine production. Martin Gojer uses the grapes of old Lag...
Davide Spillare: L1 2021
Wein
- €17,90
The name L1 is derived from the name of Davide Spillare's upper lumbar vertebra, which was broken in a tractor accident a few years ago (as good as the L1 tastes to us, we hope that there will be no L2). The L1 is a Rifermentato, i.e. a wine that undergoes a second fermentation in the bottle afte...
La Distesa: Terre Silvate 2022
Wein
- €15,90
Terre Silvate, says Corrado Dottori, is the wine that represents La Distesa like no other. A lively, purist and animating Verdicchio that is much more than just a basic wine. It comes from vineyards in three different communes in the old Verdicchio metropolis of Castelli di Jesi. None of them is...
Testalonga: Vermentino 2021
Wein
- €38,90
Antonio Perrino is a garage winemaker. He was one even before the term was taken up in Bordeaux, stripped of its actual meaning and used to formulate a marketing idea and communication strategy, which was then implemented - consistently as always in Bordeaux. These ideas and strategies passed Per...
Testalonga: Rossese di Dolceacqua 2021
Wein
- €38,90
Rossese is sensitive, delicate and subtle. Its colour is as transparent as contact lenses and lighter than blood. After a few years, it changes to a rust-coloured orange. It ages moderately, oxidises easily and only makes work. It is therefore understandable that there are only just under 80 hect...
Pranzegg: Tonsur 2022
Wein
- €22,90
The Tonsur originates on the other side of the Eisack Valley, in a vineyard on the Ritten, the local mountain of the people of Bolzano. The vineyard is called Oberplatten. However, as Martin Gojer's wines are labelled as IGT or simply as Vino Bianco, he is not allowed to put the vineyard name on ...
Davide Spillare: Bianco Rugoli 2020
Wein
- €19,90
Davide Spillare's trump card is Garganega. He is now dedicating a four-part series to the great white variety of northern Veneto. Many consumers and winegrowers have only realised in recent years that this is a great variety, after Garganega had previously experienced an unparalleled decline in q...
Denavolo: Catavela 2020
Wein
- €17,90
The Catavela is based on young vines that Giulio Armani planted in 2008 in the limestone-based subsoil of a vineyard at 700 metres above sea level. Committed to his region, he planted the steeply sloping vineyard with indigenous varieties or varieties that have been rooted in the hills around Pia...
Daniele Ricci: Derthona 2020
Wein
- €16,80
Derthona is the old name for Tortona, the main town in the Colli Tortonesi, which form a bridge between southern Piedmont and Lombardy. Costo Vescovato, where Daniele owns his vineyards, is characterised by a slightly hilly topography with moderately steep slopes, mainly based on marl and pelite ...
Nevio Scala: Monemvasia 2018
Wein
- €16,90
Nevio Scalas Malvasia pays tribute to the Cretan port city of Monemvasia. From there, a few hundred years ago, the first malvasiaszetzes were shipped to the "Serevublic" Venice, which Crete incorporated in 1204. To date, it is not entirely clear what members of the Malvasia family may have been. ...
Ca 'de Noci: Le Rose 2020
Wein
- €28,90
There are white grape varieties that are best suited to classic vinification (Riesling, Sylvaner, Vernaccia, Pecorino...). Others do well both macerated and immediately pressed (Ribolla gialla, Vermentino, Timorasso, Nosiola, Fiano, Garganega...) and then there are those that only show their true...
Ca 'de Noci: Notte di Luna 2019
Wein
- €27,90
The Masini brothers are usually one step ahead of their time. For example, they were among the first to allow their white grapes to come into contact with the skins for a few days and to refrain from adding sulphites to all their wines. Decades of experience have not only made them pioneers and i...
Tenuta Grillo: Igiea 2005
Wein
- €27,80
The Igiea is a single-varietal Barbera from the Alto Monferrato. However, as this is not allowed to appear on the label, because in Italy, as in all other European countries, there is a somewhat confused idea of how a grape variety and a region should manifest themselves in a wine, Guido Zampagli...
