Lucano Vermouth del Cavaliere

Summer day bianco from the hills! A lot of Moscatos miss the balance trick, but this one has it down – floral on the nose then fresh with citrus peels and a little sugary fizz that stays grounded thanks to some nice acidity. Would be perfect with Pannecotta, or if your AC's out this summer and you need something super refreshing.

Balbi Soprani Moscato D asti 2023

Plural for a Soprano? Did the showrunners get the title wrong? There was more than one of them after all. Speaking of a classic, smooth, here it is with that trademark bricky tannin and savoury edge wrapped in blood orange notes, a little rose and some earth. Add a ragu for perfection.

Balbi Soprani Barbaresco 2019

Piedmont’s sometimes overlooked red grape is the sibling you instantly connect with. Full of orange aperitivo bliss, dried cherry, fennel seed, and some oak spice for a savoury profile that’s happy in a decanter, but loves your glass most.

Zoppi Cristina Grignolino d'Asti 2021

Lovely and fresh with a nice perfume and red cherry pips that pour coiled in chalky tannins. Actually, this may be the cheapest, and best, box of red cherries you'll enjoy this summer.
