Like wearing a finely knitted Italian cardigan–they're back ‘on trend’ right? One dyed a dark and classy red and oozes cherry and red currant comforts plus some crumbly tannins and cool leafiness. Perfect while cooking and eating with friends.

Produttori di Govone Langhe Nebbiolo 2023

Old school approach to Etna Rosso. That means liquorice root, soil-toned tannins and delicate fruit flavours that are long and persistent. These wines are cool to see, they remind us that Etna was producing brilliant wines way before it became a fashionable wine region.

Calabretta Gaio Gaio Etna Rosso Nerello Mascalese 2021

This innocent Garganega has something that isn't innocent at all, texture. Soft, supple, a juicy weave that drapes like a divine gift meant to test us all. Refreshing and yet tempting. Pair with zucchini flowers.

Pasqua Soave 2023

Tightly packaged with a fresh lemon sherbet nose and light peachy fuzz. This is very crisp and dry in the realms of Prosecco. Savoury hints of pastry sit alongside some flinty minerality. Lean, clean fizzy business without the fruit-bomb!

Loredan Gasparini Prosecco Superiore NV

Veneto Prosecco that’s straight down the line, complete with a good amount of fruit and a dry finish. Naturally, it’s full of lemon sherbert and some stone fruit. You might want to stock up and take one this weekend, and another to your mate’s for dinner next week and have one on hand for when so-and-so come for the kids’ playdate next weekend.
