Energetic and refreshing, with a savoury rose hip nose, citrus peels and fruits—it's a bit weightier for rosato but a bright acidity keeps it feeling fresh. Drink this with your fun friends!

Il Farneto Frisant Rosato Pét-Nat 2020

Deliciously rich with distinct oceanic saline character, a little phenolic pull and a textural palate coming from two days on skins. It's as good a seaside holiday, without the sand in everything you've ever owned.

Ciello Bianco 2020

Cherry berry, marzipan almonds and a hint of rustic tannin, it has pizza over and outdoor fires written all over it.

DeAngelis Rosso Piceno 2020

Light, juicy, fresh—with red cherry and a dusting of tannin, this already has your favourite pizza joint on speed dial.

Castelsina Chianti 2020

Beautiful aromatics of rose and alpine herbs set the scene for this lovely wine, with luscious cherry fruit and sandy tannins giving way to a light balsamic herb character. Aged in botti—in true Italian style—this is delicate with a beautiful fruit presence and spice.

Sandro Fay Valtellina Superiore Costa Bassa 2018

Light, fragrant, delicious. Purple florals lead to a delectable palate full of just-ripe cherry and boysenberry, with a lovely mineral character and acidity woven through. If you're in the mood to play matchmaker, we suggest introducing this to the Gamay drinkers in your life and kicking the playlist off with this.

Erste + Neue Kalterersee Classico Superiore 2020

Bursting with golden nashi pear and a drizzling of honey blossom, this wine has some serious savoury character rounding things out. A little oxidative in style and full of lees texture, this has a little spice too for when you want to surprise and delight.

Erste + Neue Pinot Grigio 2021

Concentrated red cherry, with black plum and firm tannins. This wine is long and whilst drinking beautifully now has ageing potential.

Barbacan Valtellina Superiore Livel Nebbiolo 2016

Giuseppe Quintarelli is known as the father of Amarone. His legacy has been carried on by his daughter Fiorenza, and son-in-law Giampaolo, and now by his grandsons Francesco and Lorenzo. One of the rarer wines from Quintarelli, with grapes coming from their vineyards on basalt and limestone slopes. It’s a delicate balance of richness and intensity, without being overtly heavy.

Giuseppe Quintarelli Ca' del Merlo 2014

In 2018 no single vineyard wines were released with all that special fruit used instead to bolster this straight Barolo La Morra bottling. Translucent sweet red cherry and orange peel are moored by a savoury note of tobacco and dried leaves. With a decanter on hand no reason why it cant be enjoyed right now....

Trediberri Barolo del Comune di La Morra 2018

Nebbiolo leads the charge in this blend which uses grapes from the Sega family's vineyards in Valtellina, a valley in Italy's Lombardy region bordering Switzerland. Aged for 12 months in oak before being bottled. Lovely complexity, red fruit, dried herbs, and a lovely melody of minerality and smooth tannins. A lovely example of Valtellina Superiore.

Barbacàn Valtellina Superiore Jazpémi 2019

Nebbiolo leads the charge in this blend which uses grapes from the Sega family's vineyards in Valtellina, a valley in Italy's Lombardy region bordering Switzerland. Vineyards in this region practically hug the Alps.

Barbacàn Valtellina Superiore Sol 2019

A nice, textural medium bodied wine with swirling floral aromatics. The palate has some lovely gloss, stone fruit, lime citrus and green melon.

Artigiano Grillo 2021

A pure and pristine example of Greco. Lots of white stone fruit, citrus zest and a crisp mineral laden acidity that keeps you going back for more.

Tenuta Russo Bruno Greco di Tufo 2020

An organic blend of Corvina (70%), Rondinelle (20%) and Molinara (10%). Fresh red bramble berries, a nice herbal edge, just downright delicious.

Speri La Roverina Valpolicella Classico Superiore 2019

Wild strawberry, fresh citrus and some refreshing and crisp acidity on the finish.

Podere 414 Flower Power Rosé 2020

Notes of fleshy red and darker cherry fruit with a decent trim of tannins, weight and carry. Great stuff.

Candialle La Mise Chianti Classico 2019

A delightful higher altitude Verdicchio, and a great expression of the region. Honied florals, crisp yellow apple, a hint of citrus, honeydew melon, and mineral tones.

Bisci Verdicchio di Matelica 2019

This delightful wine hails from sun-kissed Puglia in the ‘heel’ of Southern Italy. Juicy on the palate, with intriguing hints of baked fruit and tobacco.

Artigiano Primitivo 2019

Made from Greco di Tufo fruit sourced from the Chalmers vineyard in Colbinabbin, which was macerated on skins for three weeks and pressed to neutral oak barrels where it matured for two years. Honey blossom, ripe citrus, dried apricot and sandalwood and woody spice with persistent, savoury tannins. More a food wine than a swill-in-the-park skinsy number, but absolutely delicious all the same!
