TPS (Temporary Spiritual Pleasure) 2017, Marco Buvoli-Opificio del Pinot Nero

by

The wines produced by Marco Buvoli, in Gambugliano, about 10 kilometers northwest of Vicenza, in the Castellari Mountains, between the Lessini and the Berici, have been for about fifteen years one of the most prestigious expressions of Italian sparkling Pinot Noir. Marco, on the other hand, is the son of Nevio Buvoli, one of the first Italian sommelier, who trained him to recognize the difference between a mediocre wine, a simply good one and an excellent one.

Dandarin 2007, Trabucchi d’Illasi

by

Azienda Agricola Trabucchi d’Illasi was founded by the lawyer Marco Trabucchi in 1920, in a hamlet of Illasi (Monte Tenda), in Valpolicella, 15 kilometers east of Verona.

Bolgheri Rosso 2018, Le Macchiole

by

The well-deserved fame of the Le Macchiole winery is a subject on which all Italian and international wine critics agree. On the other hand, there are not many wineries that can boast the production of three red wines that, systematically, are at the top of the production of the Bolgheri area. The history of this winery begins almost 40 years ago, in 1983, when Eugenio Campolmi, assisted by his wife Cinzia Merli, bought the first 4 hectares of vineyard on Via Bolgherese, an area still quite unknown for the production of wine.

Palistorti di Valgiano Rosso 2017, Tenuta di Valgiano

Syrah 2017, Stefano Amerighi
