This is a gorgeous Merlot. If you like Merlot You will love this. If you have found Merlot bland on its own, this will hopefully change your mind.

Our most expensive Nero Di Troia by far but well worth it for the additional richness and complexity.

Deeply coloured, the wine has notes of blackcurrant, blackberries, liquorice and chocolate. This is a polished, elegant Aglianico that retains the relaxed character of the grape and region.

​

​

One of the noble wines of Italy. A bruiser of a red. Drinking nicely now but another 5-10 years in bottle would do no harm.

​

A nice gentle descent to bed on a wet Wednesday. Fruity yet not sickly. Light but still with body. No paracetamols required on the Thursday morning.

...

Sambuca in Sicily to thank for this stunning bargain of a wine. Deep ruby in colour. Full bodied with well-balanced acidity and lingering black fruit and spice. Certified Organic, Sustainable, Vegan and Vegetarian. A lovely and versatile Wednesday wine. 13% ABV so less unhealthy than some.

This wine is ruby red in colour with violet reflections. On the nose, there are aromas of mulberry and cherry which give way to a soft palate with delicate tannins. Full-bodied and elegant, this Nero di Troia is perfectly balanced.

A lovely light sicillian red and intense ruby colour. Not too tannic. A lovely pairing for beef, pasta and lamb

In addition to roads, sewage, law and order and aquaducts the Romans make this beauty. 100% Cesanese (Lazio grape). Ruby red. Fruits, spice n’ blackberry. A clean, vibrant and easy drinking red with a bit of body. 13% ABV so a nice gentle descent to bed. Pairs well with yellow cheeses and, funnily enough, Roman food.

Unusual grape from Friuli. Schioppettino? "Gun shot" or "Little crack".

Intense red garnet colour, elegant and complex bouquet with violet and red fruit hints, delicate spicy and toasted nuances. In the mouth, it is intense and rich in fruit and wonderful aromas. Harmonious and velvety, it has soft tannins, a pleasant freshness a long and persistent finish.

...

​

​

A beautiful barbera which is drinking nicely just now, but will be stunning in 3 to 4 years time.

​

​

​

​

Mount Etna gives us yet another stunning wine. Intense aromas of sour cherry, fresh cherry and beeswax that lead to an elegantly structured pallet.

​

​

​

...

A Lovely Wednesday wine. Tremendous fruit and body for a Corvina. A " Whats there not to like" wine

​

...

​​

​

Despite the name there is nothing sweet about this wine. A delightful yet lighter red akin to Beaujolais.

​

​

​

Find normal Primitivo too sickly?This milder Primitivo (cheaper too) is just lovely. No insipid but neither has it that "Glasgow kiss" of some Primitivos.​

...

​

​

​

This delightful wine is akin to a pleasant claret (30% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Cabernet Franc, 20% Syrah, 20% Verdot).

...

Susumanielo? “Stubborn donkey” in Puglian dialect. This delightful, but rare, wine hails from Brindisi. Dark plum, fig, spice notes. Just a really lovely bottle of wine made from the Susumaniello grape. A lovely quaffer as you sob January away filling in your tax return. Goes well with beef but in the real world is nice to neck with a slice of pizza.

Bright ruby with hints of violet; floral and fruity on the nose with hints of red berries; soft and enveloping on the palate; elegant structure.

Ca Montebello Pinot  Nero IGT 2019

This a delightful light and perfumed Pinot Nero from southern Lombardy. If you don’t like Pinot Noir, too light and acidic, this won’t convert you. However, if Santa didn’t bring you a bottle of Gevrey Chambertain this is a lovely wine at a modest price; an easy going Pinot Nero.

A new wine for 2022.

Far to easy to drink in the same way Port is. Very heavy, smooth and unusual wine in that it combines grapes from two regions in Italy. 99 points by Luca Maroni "Best Italian red"

​

​

​

Bertani's historic blend. Refined and elegant. 80% Corvina, 10% Sangiovese Grosso, 5% Syrah, 5% Cabernet Sauvignon. As the producer says: Fashions come and go but style remains. Pairs well with Medium flavoured pasta and rice dishes, flavoursome white meat and medium cheeses.
