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.
Rocco di Carpeneto: Reitemp 2016
Wein
- €19,90
The top Barbera from Rocco di Carpeneto: it combines all the positive attributes that one would expect from this grape variety: precise aromas, a truly lively acidity, vitality, substance and density and an earthy, rustic undertone. The vines, planted in 1955, are all rooted in the clay and loam-...
Davide Spillare: Rosso Giaroni 2020
Wein
- €19,90
Merlot. Purely varietal, too. We understand that there are people who simply click on to the next wine. And we don't want to be missionaries and take up the cudgels in favour of Merlot, it's just that Davide Spillare makes a truly fantastic wine from it. We do not know whether this is due to the ...
Denavolo: Dinavolo 2018
Wein
- €34,90
Dinavolo is one of the great milestones of vini macerati, those wines whose white grapes are actually processed like red wines. It is made in the hills south-west of Piacenza from a hodgepodge of grape varieties in which, as is so often the case with orange wines from Emilia, Malvasia di Candia A...
Bergianti Rosso 2014
Wein
- €17,90
Lambrusco is a single big misunderstanding that fades into several small ones. One of the smaller ones is, for example, that Lambrusco is the same as Lambrusco is called, it is said that a single grape variety is made. Instead, Lambrusco is a grape family family that consists of many different me...
IL Tufiello: Montemattina 2016
Wein
- €29,90
If you want to know what the third dimension feels like in a glass of white wine, you should try Guido Zampaglione's Montemattina. Although - and this needs to be mentioned briefly - the wine is not really white. Nor is it yellow or gold. Rather, it shines in the most beautiful copper colour. Thi...
SRC Alberello 2018
Wein
- €44,80
Rori Parasiliti's old Nerello-Mascalese-vines, trained as Alberello, grow on a one-hectare plot in the Contrada (vineyard) Crasà on the northern slopes of Mount Etna. They provide him with grapes that have substance and depth, which he transforms into a radiant and subtle wine that can definitely...
SRC Etna Bianco Pirao 2022
Wein
- €62,80
Carricante is one of Italy's great white varieties - provided it is grown in the right place and tended by the right hands. The right hands are those of Rori Parasiliti and they know exactly what they are doing; the right place is Mount Etna, more precisely the Pirao site, a vineyard at an altitu...
Nevio Scala: Còntame 2017
Wein
- €23,90
The Còntame completes Nevio's trio of different Garganega styles. He complements the immediately pressed Dilètto and the sparkling Gargante with an interpretation that has been in contact with its skins for the first fortnight. This gives the wine additional structure and a taut and powerful dime...
Colombera & Garella: Lessona 2020
Wein
- €34,90
With just 18 hectares of vineyards, Lessona is the smallest of the three DOC zones in which the Colomberas own vineyards. Despite its microscopic dimensions, Lessona has a few special features that set it apart from the other two regions. Firstly, there is the climate, which in some exposures tak...
Aldo Viola: Krimiso 2019
Wein
- €27,90
Cataratto has always been the workhorse among the island's white grape varieties, and you could taste it. Only recently have there been a small number of winegrowers who have really got to the bottom of the character of Catarratto and are breaking new ground. Aldo Viola's Montelongo Catarratto vi...
Fabio Ferracane, Elisir 2020
Wein
- €33,80
Before the wine of the same name was invented in Marsala in the 18th century and subsequently shipped almost exclusively to England, there was already a very similar style of wine in the region, although it was not fortified with high-proof alcohol, but harvested late and fermented without addit...
Monte Dall'ora: Valpolicella Classico Saseti 2021
Wein
- €16,80
Carlo Venturini and Alessandra Zantadeschi from Monte dall'Ora cover the entire spectrum of wine styles in Valpolicella. This also includes a simple table wine, a wine for every day, in short a classic Valpolicella. It does not usually have an easy standing in the region and is often regarded as ...
CA 'de Noci: Kyathos del Poggio 2019
Wein

Data sheet Grape variety: Sgavetta Vineyard: Situated at 150-230 metres. South-east exposure. Gravel-interspersed soils on a subsoil characterised mainly by sandstone and gypsum Harvest: by hand in 15 kg crates Fermentation: spontaneous | wild yeasts, fermented on the skins Ageing: secondary fer...
Raina: Montefalco Sagrantino Docg "Campo di Raina" 2017
Wein
- €27,90
In the introduction to her book Natural Wine, which is well worth reading, Alice Feiring describes the difficulties of her first attempts at vinification: Little seems clear, with the exception of the choice of grape variety - unusually for an American, she was determined to make her debut with S...
La Possa, Rosé d'Amour 2020
Wein
- €23,90
Heydi Bonanini's rosé was not a planned wine. It was created in response to a hailstorm that fell right over his Canaiolo vineyard in 2016 and wiped out his entire harvest in a matter of minutes. Thrown back to his other two red varieties, Bonamico and Moscato Rosso, he decided to leave the two ...
