47 AD Prosecco Frizzante DOC NV
£11.95Add to cartWith so much mass produced Prosecco out there it’s hard to know what one to choose. We continue to champion and import this modern Prosecco from 47 Anno Domini. We colloquially call this ‘Blackboard’ Prosecco.
As a Frizzante it is delicately sparkling with citrus, pear and floral aromas which flow to the palate. You will notice its closure uses the traditional ‘tappo spago’, the cork closure with string; this symbolises their connection to time-honoured methods once used with sparkling wines from Veneto.

Fazzoletto Barbera Passito 2017
£9.95Add to cartThe name and neckerchief print around the bottle represent the ‘Fazzoletto Rosso’ worn by Italian resistance fighters during World War 2, symbolising freedom and rebellion. Packaged with three distinct labels featuring: Michaelangelo’s Statue of David, the Statue of Abundance (Trevi Fountain) and the Statue of Augustus of Prima Porta – all wearing the red neckerchief. *Each case we buy includes a random selection of all 3 labels*
This wine is a rediscovery of the old tradition of using partially-dried grapes to add richness and concentration. The Barbera grapes were grown on southwest-facing slopes in the Monferrato hills, at 250-400m altitude. Soils here are clay and limestone. Following the traditional passito technique – a portion of ripe Barbera grapes (around 20%), left on the vine for nearly a month after the main harvest to sun dry, were blended with fresh Barbera grapes before fermentation. This sweetens, enriches and softens the resulting acidity.
A fleshy and juicy red with aromas of sweet ripe plums and cherries. The palate shows ripe fruit-forward characters of cherry and wild plum and the ripe rounded finish is balanced by fresh bramble acidity.
A good match for roast poultry or game, or rich stews and pasta dishes.

Cantina Tombacco, Origine I.G.T. Terre Siciliane
£20.95Add to cartWhat is Orange Wine?
We are all used to a choice between red, white and rosé, but there’s a fourth colour increasingly being talked about in the world of wine – orange. This doesn’t mean wines made from citrus fruit, but white wines that are much deeper in colour than usual, ranging from pale amber to deep orange.Tasting notes
With Mediterranean and balsamic notes of mint, rosemary and wild herbs, the honey flavour emitted from the dried zibibbo grapes is mixed with oxidative notes resulting from the maturation in the amphora. Hints of dried apricot, tamarind, vanilla, muscovado sugar and aged tobacco.
This wine that lends itself to gastronomic experiments: try it with goat’s milk cheese or pecorino cheese; with Asian food; or as a dessert wine paired with apple tart or marzipan based desserts – our favourite Bakewell tart.
The bottle needs to be open one hour before drinking.

Molinetto, Re·lys Gavi DOCG, 2017
£16.50Add to cartName
The name Re.lys recalls a rebirth of a family tradition that has never been interrupted and is now nourished with a new energy; the lily is symbol of virtue, incorruptibility and exclusivity.
Appearance and Nose
Colour of bright straw-yellow with light greenish nuances, a bouquet that is distinctive, delicate, fruity, floral.Palate
A third of the wine has been aged in French Oak barrels for 6 months. The wood imparts the wine with a delicate light sweet note and balances out the naturally acidic cortese characteristics. The result is still a dry wine but with a generous body. Although this would still be a perfect match for seafood, it could take stronger flavours of truffle, fish soup and rich risottos.
