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.
Aldo Viola: Moretto 2019
Wein
- €21,80
Although Syrah plays a not insignificant role in Moretto, it shares this status equally with Perricone and Nerello mascalese. Thanks to the success story of the wines from Mount Etna, the latter has now become known beyond the borders. Perricone, on the other hand, is hardly known to anyone, whic...
Rocco di Carpeneto: Reìs 2021
Wein
- €15,90
Data sheet Grape variety: 100% Cortese Vineyard: Vigna Bastian. At approx. 250 metres above sea level. Limestone. Harvest: by hand Fermentation: spontaneous | wild yeasts, 3-day maceration Ageing: 6 months in acacia barrels Filtration: no SO₂: < 10 mg/litre Alcohol content: 14.5% vol. Closur...
Ca 'de Noci: Querciole 2021
Wein
- €20,90
Querciole is a frizzante made from Spergola that makes almost everything that comes from Prosecco look old and rather bland. The intention may be similar, but what Ca' de Noci bottles year after year for secondary fermentation is usually miles ahead of its much more famous frizzante colleagues in...
Bergianti: Perfranco 2021 (Rosato Frizzante)
Wein
- €22,90
Lambrusco comes in all possible shades of red, depending on which variety of the Lambrusco family you are dealing with. Rarely, however, there is also a pink version, which is in no way inferior to its red counterparts in terms of quality (incidentally, we are not the only ones who find this to b...
Ca 'de noci: Sottobosco 2021
Wein
- €19,90
"Lambrusco is the fuel of the futurists." (Filippo Tommaso Marinetti) "Lambrusco is the red champagne." (Arrigo Levi) "Lambrusco is the nectar of the gods." (Francesco Guccini) Not everyone may agree with these sentences and perhaps it would be better to put them in the subjunctive, but Lambru...
La Distesa: Nur 2021
Wein
- €24,90
"Nur" means light - in Arabic. Corrado Dottori from La Distesa had a decidedly Mediterranean wine in mind when he conceived Nur. A wine with roots that go back a long way, without added sulphites. The vineyards for this are located in San Michele, the Grand Cru of Cupramontana. The subsoil is ba...
SRC Etna Rosso 2020
Wein
- €26,90
Rori Parasilitis Etna Rosso is much more than an ordinary entry-level wine and yet it provides a perfect introduction to the world of Etna wines. As befits a wine from the slopes of the iconic Sicilian volcano, it is largely made from Nerello Mascalese, which is complemented by a few little-kno...
Rocco di Carpeneto: Aur-oura 2020
Wein
- €13,90
The entry-level wine in Rocco di Carpeneto's Dolcetto world - downgraded to DOC by Lidia and Paolo, although this voluntary downgrading is difficult to understand even for us: although the Aur-oura is a classic second wine from the Gaggero and Vicario vineyards, the quality of the grape material ...
Pranzegg: Vino Rosso Leggero 2022
Wein
- €17,90
Martin Gojer and his former colleague Philine Dienger wrote a short article for Triple A, the Italian distributor of Pranzegg wines, on the creation of Vino Rosso Leggero (Light Red Wine). It is fundamentally about the fact that artisan wines not only reflect the material world of the winemaker, ...
Colombera & Garella: Vispavola 2021
Wein
- €15,90
Giacomo Colombera and Cristiano Garella's latest project, Vespolina, puts the spotlight on a grape variety that usually plays a leading but only minor role in the Nebbiolo cuvées of Piedmont's north. This time, however, it has all the attention and knows how to make the most of it - and that is ...
Le Boncie: Le Trame 2019
Wein
- €49,90
The Le Trame has been showing for a good two decades in which direction in the Chianti. To speak to Jonathan Nossiter's words, he is "Liquid Memory". But he is also a bridge into the future, a wine that brings together the history of a style (Chianti) and the handwriting of a great winemaker. Gio...
IL Tufiello: Sancho Panza 2019
Wein
- €26,80
Every few weeks, Guido Zampaglione gets into his car and drives through the night from Gamalero in southern Piedmont to Calitri, in the hills east of Avellino. 894 kilometres lie between the two places, but what wouldn't you do for a great love - and it seems to be unconditional between Guido and...
Eugenio Bocchino: Roccabella 2019
Wein
- €26,90
La rocca bella, the beautiful rock, is just a stone's throw away from La Morra and yet already outside the sacred zone of Barolo. Cinzia and Eugenio own 1.5 hectares of vines there, which they planted entirely with Nebbiolo in 1997. The soil is mainly based on clay and sand. The Roccabella is the...
Rocco di Carpeneto: Losna 2018
Wein
- €17,20
Dolcetto is a fantastic variety with one crucial problem: it is overshadowed by Nebbiolo. Whether this is justified or not remains to be seen, but the fact is that in Alba and the surrounding area, every reasonably decent vineyard is planted with Nebbiolo. For Dolcetto - but also for the great Gr...
Davide Spillare: Vecchie Vigne 2020
Wein
- €29,90
The quintessence of Davide's endeavours. The grapes for the Rugoli Vecchie Vigne come from a vineyard where Garganega vines have been rooted for over 60 years. The vines are as thick as tree trunks, deeply anchored in volcanic basalt and fairly resistant to potential fungal diseases. Small, full...
