A great alternative to Prosecco, from Veneto made in the Charmat method of tank fermentaion from the grape variety Durello. Citrus and gently floral aromas lead to a very fresh and zippy palate with crisp green apple and lightly honeyed characters. A refreshing and approachable style of fizz - yet with texture and depth underlying the bright fruit.

From selected vineyard parcels in Treviso, hand harvested and with a cool fermentation. A clean, fresh, citrus nose with a broad palate of lush elderflower fruit.

A full flavoured semi-sparkling dry and fleshy red wine with fresh raspberry fruit, on the nose it shows pleasant and persistent red fruits notes and violet scent. Fleshy on the palate with a rich harmonious body and fresh raspberry and blackcurrant aromas.

The colour is an appealing pink with cherry-coloured hints. Fresh berry aromas and a fine mousse lead to redcurrant and citrus notes on the palate, balanced by bright acidity and a clean, dry finish.

This blend of Catarratto, Grillo, Damaschino and Inzolia is made with strictly selected grapes vinified before fermentation is stopped with the addition of eau de vie so sugar levels remain below 40g/L. This “Mistella” is then blended with the best DOC wine and aged at least 2 years in French oak casks. The final wine is fortified to 18% alcohol. With toffee and nutty aromas, this wine has rich dry fruit palate flavors. Passito di Pantelleria Muscat of Alessandria, or Zibibbo, grapes are harvested at the end of August and dried naturally before vinification. The wine shows complex, elegant dried fruit and apricot aromas with beautiful balance.

A medium sweet Marsala made from Catarratto, Grillo and Inzolia. Use as an aperitif, with pudding or in a sweet dish.

A wine with a very deep yet bright, golden colour and amber highlights. Subtly eccentric aromas introduce immediate interest - there is a soft honeyed central note with a sweet raisiny, figgy heart. This extends further with age developed nuances such as spices, old furniture, cocoa, chestnuts, and creme caramel. The wine has a very mellow and comfortable feel in the mouth - rich and sweet, yet tangy and orange-peely - giving support to a long and fine finish.

An Amarone of unusual grace, purity and elegance - with sublime aromas and a powerful, complex palate.

An outstanding Sparkling wine from the Franciacorta region. Made from 100% Chardonnay and presented in the most fantastic 'square' bottle. Straw yellow in colour, the palate is rich and crisp with elegant citrus fruit, a steely minerality and moreish acidity. Fine and persistent bubbles leave a pleasant and memorable impression. A must try for Sparkling wine fans.

Barolo Marcenasco is smooth, balanced elegant wine from Italy with traces of liquorice and tobacco. it has a full-bodied flavour, romas of wild berry, pressed rose and ground clove.
