The vineyards of Villa Enzo are positioned on the gentle slopes of Abruzzo and this wine is made in the traditional way from 100% Montepulciano grapes. There is no influence of oak so this purple/ruby coloured wine offers pure, vibrant aromas of red cherry fruit. The satisfying palate is rich with juicy fruit and very approachable, soft tannins. A classic Italian wine.

Percheron is a French breed of workhorse, and this is our "workhorse" red. It is a real stalwart and hugely popular. Medium bodied, full of red fruit flavours and oh so clean on the palate. Tremendous value.

A great partner to rich and savoury red meat dishes such as salt-marsh lamb, or a gutsy bean casserole.

A cracking value red blend from Alentejano, in the south of Portugal.  Based on Tempranillo, known locally as Aragonez, this shows lifted aromas of blackcurrant and blueberries and just a touch of florality. The palate is bright and well-defined with layers of black cherry, plum and dark spice, over ripe tannins. Great stuff!

Bags of personality here in this southern Italian bombshell. Intensely flavoured and deeply coloured; black cherries and blueberry muffin come first, followed by underlying light tarry notes that bring an appealing umami richness. Tannic structure gives backbone to the weight of the fruit and its chocolatey richness. Pair this inky, blanket of a wine with spit-roast lamb, or lentils and bacon with roasted beetroot.

One of our bestsellers, this villages-quality Rhone wine seriously over-delivers. Supple and rounded, whilst packing a hit of white pepper and spice over generous dried strawberry and herbal notes. Delicately oaked, this is soft and velvety yet structured enough to hold up to robust southern-French cuisine, which it compliments wonderfully. .

 One of our favourite reds all year round.  A Jaen (Mencia)-led blend, which also features some Touriga Nacional and Alfrocheiro, aged without oak.  With typical Dao freshness, this is a herb-fruited, honest reflection of this great appellation. It’s fun and immensely drinkable.

A summery blend of Gamay and Pinot noir fromt the Nantais region of the Loire Valley. Comparable to a great Beaujolais, but without the ‘bubblegum’ notes those wines sometimes impart.  Juicy and refreshing, with light tannins, medium body, and a moreish finish. Also lovely lightly chilled.

Looking for a fantastic everyday red? Look no more. Made in Verona from a blend of 40% Corvina, 20% Rondinella, (as found in Valpolicella) 30% Merlot and 10% Cabernet Sauvignon (as found in Bordeaux), this cracker of a red delivers the best of both worlds. Packed with black and red cherry, dried plum and silky blackberry flavours. Unoaked, maintaining purity of flavour, with some dried grapes added to the mix (like Ripasso) bringing richness. Trastullo is an archaic Italian word that means something which gives you enjoyment. By name, by nature. Enjoy!

A very smart Syrah from one of our favourite South African producers, this is plush, polished and seriously appealing. Fresh and lifted berry fruit aromas make for a very inviting nose; full yet elegant, with bramble, cassis and black cherry. These flavours follow on the palate with a typical Syrah note of black pepper spice. Fine, ripe tannins with a long rich, finish. Astonshing value.

Ideal with spicy dishes, red meats and rich Mediterranean dishes.

Sustainable viticulture, wild ferment, and no nasties. Proper wine, sensibly priced.

Elegant and refreshing cool-climate Pinot. Pale ruby red in colour with a lifted nose of raspberry,blackcurrant fruit and a gentle cranberry grip with gentle spice notes from barrel aging. The palate shows delicious ripe summer fruit character and is perfectly balanced by soft tannins and refreshing acidity. It has a long and elegant finish. 70% of the wine is aged for 6 months in French oak barrels, lending spice and cocoa notes.

The Casablanca Valley is influenced by its proximity to the Pacific Ocean and its coastal breezes that moderate temperatures. The area ranges from soft rolling hills to higher hills toward the Coastal Mountain range in the east. The poor, sandy loam soils are alluvial in origin, relativelyshallow and very permeable, resulting in yields which are generally low in comparison with other Chilean valleys.

A perfect blend of 4 grapes. The black fruit spiciness of Syrah, deep perfume from Petit Verdot,  plummy juiciness from Merlot, and deep power of Cabernet Franc. The palate begins fresh and fruity, evolving into riper flavours and rich black fruit notes, with elegant tannins and a fine, bright finish. Some whole bunch inclusion brings a brightness that lifts the wine. Moreish acidity and food-friendly tannic structure make this wine an epicure’s delight. Orgonic and Biodynamic.

The Producer; Circle of Life Red is neither defined by grape varietals, nor indeed a specific block within the vineyard, but instead encapsulates the myriad soils, aspects, altitudes and grape varieties found on this windswept, biodynamic farm. Grapes are hand-harvested and brought to the cellar by horses for hand-sorting. Bordeaux varietals are de-stemmed, whilst Rhone varietals are not de-stemmed. Fermentation takes place spontaneously with wild yeast in large, open-top wooden fermenters with foot-pressing or manual punch-downs, ageing for 20 months in the same vessels. The components are then blended and the wine ages further in large wooden foudre. No fining, just a light filtration. No additions other than sulphur. Vegan friendly, biodynamic wine.

Winemaker Andre Farjon has 50 hectares of vines that he started farming biodynamically in 2008 and are now certified organic. The grapes are sourced from clay and limestone slopes around the town of Uchaux, as well as the gravel and clay soils on the flatter areas around Cairanne, giving Farjon a range of terroirs with which to work.

The Côtes du Rhône La Devèze blends Grenache, Syrah, Cinsault and Carignan to produce a rich, black cherry and plump plum core, with hot stone notes buried on the finish. Medium-full bodied and well balanced, it beguiles with underlying notes of aromatic scrubby herbs like lavender and rosemary. Full of vitality. One of our bestselling wines, and for good reason.

A perfect partner for lamb with roasted aubergines and peppers.

A red with layers of spicy fruit and damson, that massively over delivers.

Ripe, appealing aromas of plums, blackberries, and cherry and a hint of milk chocolate. Rich and spicy on the palate with dark fruit, balancing acidity and soft tannins.

Bodegas Juan Gil own over 500 hectares of vineyards, between 700 and 850 metres altitude, in the northwest of Jumilla: old bush vine Monastrell planted in chalky soils, and Shiraz grown in sandy soils on younger, trellised vines. Vinification is carried out at the winery in the heart of the Juan Gil vineyard area. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel, temperature controlled, and the juice maintains contact with the skins during this 10-day process.

Will match up with rich pasta dishes with salami or ham, or a premium, meat-rich, lasagna with layers of meatballs and slices of pepperami in the mix! Sunny weather? - perfect for barbecues too.

From the St Guilhem le Désert region in the sunny Val de Montferrand. Comprised of 60% Cabernet Sauvignon and 40% Syrah, this wonderful southern French wine lives and breathes the Langueoc style. With a lush richness and an inviting character, some inclusion of whole-bunch Syrah adds a perfume and lightness to the palate. Medium-bodied and in no way overblown, there is a finesse and liveliness not often found in these grapes from this part of the world. Very 'alive' tasting. With 10 generations of organic winemaking under their belt, this family Chateau certainly know what they're doing!  ORGANIC.

Black cherry red with intense blackcurrant and typical green capsicum notes, that give way to hints of black pepper, tobacco leaf and chocolate. The palate presents medium body and very smooth, lush tannins. This wine is very easy to drink and stands out for its great balance and fresh finish.The wine was aged for 12 months, 40% in French oak barrels, 30% in American, and 30% in stainless steel tanks.

The Colchagua Valley stands in Chilé out for its Mediterranean climate with four well-defined seasons. The summers are hot and dry, which encourages proper ripening without interruptions. The valley ends at the Pacific Ocean, which has a positive effect on the vineyards because it cools the valley during the hot season.

Ideal with grilled or roasted meats, such as roast pork with wine and spice reduction, and pepper-crusted steak. Best served at 16º–17ºC in a Bordeaux-style glass.

2020 vintage

Gérald Lafont and Baptiste Olivier are known throughout France as two of the Rhône Valley's top oenologists. Their consulting work for many of the best estates throughout the region and in Provence has given them access to a percentage of the grape yield from some of the highest acclaimed vineyards in the region. Their collective wine-making knowledge and experience, combined with their access to some of the top fruit in the region, allows them to consistently create some of the best value wines in the Rhône today.

A luscious blend of 60% Grenache, 20% Mourvèdre, 10% Syrah and 10% Cinsault. Made from vines up to 70 years of age, the deep roots mine the mineral depths of one of the world's most famous terroirs. Such deep, entrancing aromas emanate from the glass; a rich blend of red and dark berry fruit, mixed with notes of earth, garrigue herbs, and hints of spice. It is structured and full-bodied, yet soft and sensual. Wonderfully minerality runs throughout the wine, mingling with lush cassis and dark jammy fruits that caress the palate.

This Pinot Noir with garnet-colored juice is perfumed with fine spices (nutmeg and cinnamon), mocha, and Montmorency cherry.  Its texture finds its balance in a generous flavor that is felt in a velvety tannin highlighting the finesse of the grape variety.

The vineyards is full of Turitelles fossils, these marine sediments are carried by a limestone and clay base, forming sloping plateaus in the landscape, on which the vineyard is located. This terroir in the foothills of the Pyrenees is known for the quality of its hillsides and its sunny and cool microclimate.

Wines from the Dao region represent some of the finest in Portugal. A Jaen (Mencia)-led blend, which also features some Touriga Nacional, aged without oak to retain a pure, fruit-driven style.

With typical Dáo freshness, this is an authentic reflection of this high-quality region. Subtle yet complex, showing fresh redcurrant and cranberry from the Jaen, mellowed by bramble, sloe, and forest-floor notes that bring to mind mushrooms and sweet earth. A savoury/herbal note balances the fruit wonderfully. Medium bodied and immensely drinkable, we were blown away by the quality and value of this wine. Ideal with game or try lightly chilled as an aperitif. Fans of Pinot noir will find much to like here. 

Perfect for summer, with its refreshing nature, and a wine we'll definitely be drinking a lot of ourselves!

Maias is the local name for the Weaver's Broom plant which surrounds the estate here and features on the label. Its yellow flowers blossom in May in this part of Dao, hence its nickname, as Maio is the word for May

Pinot noir from Beaujolais, as quirky as the vigneron himself. Jean-Paul Brun is quite a legend in Beuajolais. He works organically and avoids sulphite use, creating Beaujolais Villages wines, a stunning Chardonnay (also available from us) and this, his Pinot noir. The additional warmth and granitic soils of the 'Terres Dorees' give this Pinot a vibrancy and character all of its own. Retaining the elegance of Burgundy, yet with a little more of a wild side. Enjoy it for it's youthfulness and energy.

This exceptional Pinot Nero is produced in tiny quantities from Cavit's very best vineyards. A very fine example of the grape by any standards. Grown on the south-west and south-east facing slopes around Povo; a mixture of glacial limestone and volcanic soils. Hand-harvested in mid-September. The must is fermented in contact with the skins for 10 days, and matured for 20 months in 225 litre French oak barriques. The wine spends around 10 months in bottle before release.

Coterie – a small group with shared tastes or interests - and a group we enjoy being part of with wines of this quality! Wildeberg’s rationale is to source the finest vineyards available across Franschhoek and the Coastal Region. These cuvees are selected to go into Coterie by Wildeberg.

Quite a grown-up wine, this is a textural, gently muscular expression of Cabernet Franc with Malbec. A Loire-inspired combination that was new in this South African model, but certainly a wonderful discovery. One wonders why it isn't being done elsewhere, but perhaps this special terroir plays as much a part. Rich, deep, and plummy from the Malbec, with fresh, herbaceous character supplied by the Cab Franc. Barrel fermented for 20 months. Great with grilled meats, especially lamb and spiced meat dishes.

Proper Barolo, from a single vineyard in the commune of Bussia - one of the most highly rated of all. Firm, aromatic nose, showing red berries, delicate herbaceous and spicy nuances, hint of black berries, dried floral notes and mushrooms. Clear, bright, tart and juicy fruit with light roasted nutty notes and tobacco. One to enjoy now or will happily cellar for 10 years plus.

An easy drinking Italian red made from Corvina and Merlot from the shores of Lake Garda. Perfect party wine.

This is a family run winery, in the heart of Redondo, with a deep love and understanding of the viticultural heritage of their region. Alexandre Relvas started in 1997, and his two sons Alexandre Jr and António now run the show, ably supported by Head Winemaker Nuno Franco and his team at the Pimenta Winery.

Herdade São Miguel is the original, flagship estate which comprises 35 Ha of vineyard as well as Cork forest and olive groves and a heathy flock of Merino sheep. The family develop their enterprise locally and globally, committing to ambitious environmentally sustainable and socially responsible policies so the benefits are shared, and added value is retained.

The wines are bold in expression, varied in style and authenticity shines through them all.  This, their tinto, is a blend of Aragonez (Tempranillo), Alicante Bouschet and Antao Vaz - all indigenous to this sunnny, windswept area of Portugal - and create such a generous, moresih wine that is both soft and satisfying all at once. Great dinner-party wine  - it's hard not to like this!

2016 was a hit and miss year in Bordeaux, but Chateau Guillot Clauzet really hit the spot with careful management and selection to create this succulent and opulent Pomerol. Ripe and plummy, overlaid with smokey leather and forest-floor aromas, this elegant wine has matured beautifully. No need to wait - this is ready to enjoy now - but will continue to develop game and spice notes over the coming years with proper storage. Try alongside venison, pheasant, or strong cheeses. Delicious.

A stunning blend of Castelão, Aragonez, and Touriga Nacional. Hand-crafted, traditionally made Portuguese blend, foot-trodden in granite lagars an bottled unfined and unfiltered.

Touriga Nacional and Aragonez provide beautifully ripe, dark berry fruit, but it's the indigenous Castelão that brings this wine to life. It's this lesser-known variety that adds intrigue, with redcurrant acidity, freshness, and bright cherry with a sour edge; perfectly balanced agianst a deep and brooding backdrop. There's a lovely leafy herbaceous note and rusticity to the tannic structure that balances the more modern fruit component. Overall, a just a really great wine to drink!

IWC 91 points SILVER MEDAL - 'Well handled, balanced and integrated fruit with fine tannins. Fresh and herbal finish'. - Panel Chair: Joe Wadsack | Co-Chair: Jamie Goode - IWC 2020

The hand-picked grapes are sourced from selected vineyards in the Dao region south of the Douro Valley, where old vines are tended traditionally in granite soil. The grapes undergo a cold, pre-fermentation maceration for 5 days, followed by a final alcoholic fermentation lasting around 4 days. The wine also undergoes malolactic fermentation, and is then matured for 12 months in (2nd year) French and Russian oak.

Immediately juicy with lots of bramble fruits and polished aromatics. Underlying savoury and herbal character with silky, supple black fruit. Soft tannins with hints of pine and vanilla on the elegant finish.

Goes well with grilled beef or lamb or robust stew. For a veggie alternative try with spinach and lentil casserole.

Caiaffa works to the principle of synergistic agriculture. They believe that nature is man's greatest collaborator and that it is nature which maintains balance. Certified organic, they do not use insecticides or pesticides in order to encourage a balanced ecosystem and work at one with nature.

Amazingly fresh nose, with aromas that bring to mind a cosy pub in winter. Smooth and easy drinking and showing impressive length. A touch of ‘bittersweet’ on the palate with liquorice and smoky notes balancing a rustic bramble-fruit profile. Despite these 'weighty' descriptors, the wine retains a lightness of touch and works just as well at cellar temperature as it does fireside. Three months in oak gives a rounded palate and balance. Great to pair with smoked ham or bacon, game, hearty soups and stews.

Aromas of bramble fruit, vanilla, nutmeg and sweet spice. The palate is rich and complex with blueberry and blackberry fruit, ripe tannins and good length.

Food match: Great with lamb chops, dishes with chorizo, and hearty vegetable casseroles.

Textured and luxurious this is a sophisticated Cabernet Franc from Gard. There is a wild 'after the rain' woodland perfume, with menthol and truffley hints. The palate is incredibly long and layered with bramble fruit, earthy peppery layers and a touch of sweet prune on the finish.

Juicy lamb shanks, rich tomato based dishes laced with roasted garlic and pepper, marinated steak with mashed potato and green beans or savour it at the end of the meal over a good cheeseboard.

Pinot Noir grown in rocky soils results in a chunky style with lovely fruit complexity, structure and lovely velvet tannins. Aromas of red cherry. Pine needle and white chocolate flavours on the palate.

Fermented with yeast strains from the Burgundy, France and matured in a mix of new and old 300L French Oak barrels for 10 months.

The grapes come into the winery as whole bunches because the Vallets believe that destalked wines lose their colour too quickly. The first 10cm of each barrel is filled with grapes which are crushed by foot, the barrel is then topped up with whole bunches and fermentation starts naturally after 2-3 days. Since yeasts are an expression of the individual vintage and vineyard, no artificial yeasts are used. 3-4 times a day the pulp is trodden by foot to further extract colour and flavour. The wines are left in open top fermenters until the cap sinks then decanted into 20-30% well-toasted new oak (a small percentage compared to most). After 15-20 months the wine is racked, blended and lightly fined. Wines are not filtered but checked by candlelight, then bottled directly from barrel by hand on a cask by cask basis.

Delicate garnet colour with peppery, strawberry fruit on the nose, the palate is light to medium-bodied with appealing nervy fruit and mouth-watering acidity balancing the dry tannins and elegant red fruit.

When it comes to matching a wine with steak (or other red meat), look no further than this fabulous Cabernet Sauvignon. We have been searching for an easy drinking Cabernet Sauvignon to spearhead our Quaff range for a while now. I am thrilled to have discovered a fantastic red and white from the Pays d'Oc that really deliver exceptional value and seriously good quality. This is our go to weekday red. Give it a go - it's a belter!

 La Foule Pinot Noir comes from selected vineyards in the Languedoc region of southern France. It is a wonderful wine with lovely aromas of violet and red fruits and a velvety palate with a long and supple vanilla finish due to a proportion of the blend being matured with French oak.

Deep ruby with a nose of restrained power. Blue and black fruits, with hints of violets, cedar tar and spices. The palate has enormous power and persistence, yet the first impression is of elegance and grace, before finishing with full and ripe tannins.

Deep, brooding purple, aromas of eucalyptus and black fruits prevail. In the mouth, the medium-bodied palate belies the wine’s dark appearance. Ripe and fresh flavours of bramble, mint, currant and pomegranate highlight the palate. The finish is long and slightly grippy. 

Telmo Rodriguez is one of the most well known personalities in Spanish winemaking. This particular bottle was a stand out in a recent tasting - we can't believe how good it is for £13! 

Intense ruby red in colour with purple hues. On the nose, aromas of morello and marasca cherries pervade, with notes of small red berries and sweet spices. The palate is mineral and balanced with a long, mouthwatering finish. Recommended for fans of Pinot noir or good Valpolicella. This delivers both lightness of touch with depth of flavour. Serve chilled. Great even with fish dishes, but especially good with seared Tuna!

Château Saint-Jeans Villages wine from Plan de Dieu is made at 80% Grenache, 15% Syrah
and 5% Carignan. A very good Cotes du Rhone. Intense red fruits. Full-bodied, ample, silky
tannins. In the mouth, there is a very nice and tasty density. This wine is powerful with a
spicy and very aromatic and spicy finish. It could be a Châteauneuf. Great drinking right
now (2020) with a good 5 years ahead of it. 

This is made from a grenache and syrah blend, from old vines, and aged in tank for a few months. Concentrated and rich with lashings of plum and cherry fruit and tapenade. Always a star performer from the southern Rhône Valley, especially in the 2015 vintage.

Each one of the family's vineyards is cultivated using the French Agriculture Raisonée method, a form of environmentally aware farming. Each bottle of Daniel's wine proudly bears the High Environmental Value label on it. 

But what of the wine? Freshly crushed black fruits and cassis dominate yet there's a crunchy fresh bite to it too. It scored 16.5/20 from Jancis Robinson MW who described previous vintages as “Grenache at it’s most delicate tasting… it has the luscious appeal of one of the finest Chateauneufs.” 

Jeb Dunnock was impressed too, giving it 90-92/100 and saying "the purity and freshness of the vintage as well as outstanding notes of red and blue fruits, sappy herbs/garrigue, and pepper. It’s nicely concentrated, elegant, medium-bodied, and just has everything in the right place. It will keep for over a decade."

Drink now and until 2030

Vanessa has just 3ha of red grapes. As far as we can ascertain they are the only red grapes in the appellation. The vines are around 35 years old and this particular cépage is made up of 50% Cabernet Franc and 50% Cabernet Sauvignon mainly grown on Schist. Ageing is in Concrete vat.

From vines grown on a combination of clay and limestone soils in th village of Verrains. Vinified with
indiginous yeast, exclusively in cocrete vat. The easiest of easy reds, silky enough to enjoy
by the pint glass! Bright red fruits and the gentlest of silky smooth tannin. Serve with the lightest chill to show it at its best. Perfect with lamb.

Beautifully vivacious and fruity on the nose. Mulberries, soft red fruits on the palate, with soft tannins
to give some pleasing structure to this very moreish light red wine. Organic.

The best organic Sangiovese grapes are harvested manually during the cool night time, carefully selected and transported to the winery in small baskets. The bunches are then gently destemmed and undergo a spontaneous fermentation in small open top fermenters. The grapes are left to macerate on the skins for 24 to 30 days, and then softly pressed with a small bladder press. The wine is then aged for 24 months on its fine lees in neutral tonneau and barriques and an additional 6 months in the bottle before it is released. We only add a minimum quantity of sulfites to our wine prior to bottling. We do not fine, clarify, or filter our wines at any time during production nor do we chemically adjust it. Tiny quantities of this stunning wine are produced, so grab it while you can!

Thomas Barton left his homeland of Ireland in 1722 and started a new life as a wine merchant in Bordeaux. His grandson inherited his passion for wine and acquired 50 hectares of vineyards in St Julien in 1826. This was the beginning of Leoville Barton, a prestigious wine estate. This second wine of Chateau Leoville Barton is made from younger vines making it more approachable than the Grand Vin. It has a complex aroma of balsamic, ink and pencil lead. It is a structured, balanced, generous wine with a spicy touch and delicious black fruits. It offers a powerful and dense sensation and a long finish.

The grape of Rioja, Tempranillo is always the perfect party choice; soft and juicy and always a crowd-pleaser.

Luigi Bosca De Sangre Malbec Valle de Uco is a bright red garnet-coloured wine featuring black fruit aromas and spicy notes, in addition to its highly appealing mineral hues. It is compact, robust and very concentrated in the mouth, with a clearly defined and very smooth palate. Dark cassis and red cherries combine with delicate spice.

Finca Nueva cultivates 96 ha of vineyards on calcareous-clay and gravel soils, situated on the right bank of the Ebro river in Rioja. All vineyards are all north-facing in order to fully benefit from Atlantic influence. Unlike Finca Allende, which eschews the use of the traditional Rioja quality categories based on ageing, Finca Nueva makes a red Crianza, Reserva and Gran Reserva. What remains the same, however, is the use of exclusively French barriques. The style is modern and fresh, elegant and easy-drinking.

Heaphy Pinot Noir is a gently perfumed and characterful wine, expressive of Nelson unique breezy and warm terroir. A well-balanced profile, showing plenty of fruit, energy, and desired juiciness.

Food match: Mushroom risotto, barbequed meats or stuffed roasted butternut squash.

First off, I don't normally like Pinotage, but this completly blew me away! Transient Lands Pinotage is an ongoing project to source, blend and bottle special parcels of Pinotage across the Western Cape and become an expression of each vintage through the grape’s proverbial lens. The blend incorporates Pinotage from diverse locations, each contributing its unique character. This includes granitic soils in the Polkadraai Hills above Stellenbosch, an old vine block in Stellenbosch's Helderberg region, the cooler climate and sandstone soils of the Stanford Foothills on the South Coast, and sandy granite soils in the Paardenberg of the Swartland. There is no "burnt tyre" here, just clean, crunchy and beautifully made red wine.

A refreshing and fragrant Cabernet with fresh and bright flavours of blackcurrant. Silky textured, lifted on the mid-palate and with a smooth ripe finish.

Perfect with roast lamb with rosemary and garlic. Finish with a mature cheese such as parmesan.

Complex and elegant aromas, with black fruits and a subtle hint of oak. Supple tannins and a bright fruit packed finish.

Great with steak, roast lamb, game or rich stews.

This wine is produced from the Trincadeira, Alicante Bouschet and Aragonez grape varieties, and is aged in new French oak barrels. It is very fruity and full-bodied, with notes of red berries, black cherry and spice. It has great concentration and exuberance, and will age beautifully. 

This sensational Cabernet Franc carries spice and lightness from the glass to the palate. Full of vivacity, with good structure and fine tannins. Not overly herbaceous or extracted, this exudes the fruit and earth of Franc with a delicate hand. Nec-Otium matures the wine in old wooden barrels and bottles it unfiltered.

The grapes come from an old vineyard in the village of Buttrio, measuring about one hectare. The vines are managed organically but not certified. The grapes are picked by hand and the average yield is 20 hl/ha. They are fully destemmed before maceration and fermention is with natural yeasts. Matured in large oak barrels with ageing for a total of twenty months. Bottled with no fining or filtration.
