Fattoria Uccelliera di Poggianti, Tuscany
In the glass of deep ruby color with violet nuances. The nose reveals complex aromas of ripe cherries, plums and exotic spices. On the palate voluminous, powerful and of refinement.
'Poggio alla Pietra' is produced according to the 'Governo all'uso toscano' method. This describes the gentle second fermentation by adding Sangiovese grapes dried on straw mats. This technique is widely used in the Valpolicella area, but has long been present in Tuscany in a similar form. The result is a complex and smooth red wine - not entirely dissimilar to an Amarone or Ripasso. - Gerardo [TS12/16]

Agricole Vallone, Puglia
This red wine, made exclusively from Negroamaro grapes, is an Italian original of international fame: the particular production process is reminiscent of Amarone and Sforzato, with the grapes dried outdoors on the kiln, without the use of technology and following ancestral methods. Still dry, this straw wine has been one of the most interesting red wine specialties of Puglia for decades, with concentrated aromas of Amarena cherries and some cigar box. Still dry on the palate with lush berry fruit, while balanced and harmoniously structured. The name of this wine legend is Graticciaia. - Gerardo [TS06/16]
"Graticciaia is not just one of Italy's best wines, but also an historic one since it clearly brought into focus the up-until-then hidden qualities of the negroamaro grape. Uniquely creamy, with beyond-velvety tannins and loaded with aromas and flavours of strawberry jam, cherries macerated in alcohol and sage. Simply an exceptional wine." - Ian Domenico D'agata (Guida ai Miglori Vini d'Italia)
"Sparkling ruby with a slight garnet sheen. Opens with notes of dried mushrooms, some orange peel, fragrant, then shows fine notes of blackberries and dried herbs. Compact and dense on the palate, opens with dense tannin, of amazing elegance, fine red berries and fine melt characterize the wine in approach and course, long finish." - Falstaff
"The 2009 Graticciaia is one of the most distinctive wines to emerge from Puglia today. Fruit is sourced from ancient alberello or head-pruned vines and is air-dried on straw mats (called 'graticci' in Italian) for up to three weeks. Stylistically, the wine shares many of the dried fruit characteristics of Amarone from Northern Italy. This expression of Negroamaro delivers dark fruit aromas of prune, raisin, scorched earth and burnt almond shell. It ages in Allier and Never barrique for one year. The charred notes are very strong and come in stark contrast to the very noticeable jammy sweetness that this wine delivers to the palate. The finish is chewy, soft and very ripe.
Vallone is responsible for the only 'aia' wine of Puglia this is loosely inspired by the great 'aia' wines of Tuscany (Solaia, Ornellaia and Sassicaia) in terms of intensity and pedigree. But the winemaking methodology is completely different here. Vallone's Graticciaia is made with air-dried fruit similar to Amarone della Valpolicella. It represents a very special expression that will appeal to those who appreciate an extra dose of sunshine in their hot-climate red wines." - Robert Parkers Wine Advocate

Kellerei Meran, South Tyrol
The grapes for this graceful meditation wine come from a single vineyard below Castle Tyrol. Even in its production, great care and attention to detail is paramount. The best clone material, meticulous yield regulation and the most elaborate manual labor are the credo here. After gentle whole cluster pressing with natural sedimentation, this masterpiece is left to rest for one year in oak barrels and another 4 years in steel barrels on the fine lees. Only after more than 5 years - as the name suggests - this special drop finds its way into the bottle. - Gerardo [TS06/16]
"The idea to create a great white wine Riserva, which matures for 5 years in the cellar on the fine lees, I had many years ago. It has always been important to me to explore the possibilities of processing our white wine lead variety." - Stefan Kapfinger

Sturm, Friuli
Originally, the idea of processing Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon grapes into high-quality cuvees came from France. In Italy, too, this classic combination enjoys great popularity and produces - as the example of the Sturm family shows - a long-lived red wine with a strong character:
The color of Andritz Rosso is a bright ruby red with violet inclusions. A broad spectrum of aromas opens up on the nose: ripe, red fruits peppered with exotic spices, plus intense notes of dried fruit and licorice. On the palate, this flagship red wine from Sturm proves to be exceedingly complex, intense and harmonious. Notes of blueberries, cooked plums, dried figs, coffee and cocoa conclude the long-lasting finish. - Gerardo

"Dark garnet red. The nose is complex, deep with hints of ink, black pepper and sour cherry. The structure is complex but well defined, nervous with juicy tannins and a spectacular progression. A Lagrein of delicacy, balance and unique character." - Daniele Cernilli (Doctor Wine)

Fasoli Gino, Veneto
This Amarone della Valpolicella shows great structure, inviting and elegant. The full and warm bouquet shows notes of dried fruit, black pepper, coffee, licorice and vanilla. The palate is soft and enveloping, voluminous and long lasting. - Gerardo
This wine from the Prestige line of the Fasoli brothers is the result of decades of research into the Valpolicella terroir. The selection of suitable vineyards and their exposure, that understanding of the microclimate and the extremely limited grape material allow a truly great wine.
"Brilliant ruby with garnet rim. Clear nose with rich notes of prunes, some molasses, plus lots of cloves. Lush and broad on the palate, showing a lot of sweetness, then opens with grippy tannins, but in the finish remains a somewhat sweet mouth." - Falstaff

Camigliano, Tuscany
From the best sites of Camigliano comes Brunello di Montalcino Gualto: a wine of rich ruby color and characteristic intense aroma. 36 months in large oak and two more years of refinement in bottle give this Brunello a great structure and elegance. An ideal companion to flavorful and spicy dishes such as game and roasts. - Gerardo [TS03/16]
"Bright elegant ruby red. In the nose of ripe raspberries and wild strawberries, also shows nuances of pomegranate, in the reverberation bright spice. Opens smoothly on the palate with a fruity-sweet core, juicy, runs clear and round into the long finish." - Falstaff
"The enthusiasm of the winemaking couple can also be felt in the denomination wines of the Camigliano winery. Even the concentrated color of Brunello di Montalcino Gualto Riserva gives an idea of what awaits you on the nose: an intensely fruity bouquet with ripe blackberries, sour cherries and blueberries, all of which are also present in jam form." - Gambero Rosso

Still dry, this straw wine has been one of the most interesting red wine specialties of Puglia for decades, with concentrated aromas of Amarena cherries and some cigar box. Still dry on the palate with lush berry fruit, while balanced and harmoniously structured. The name of this wine legend is Graticciaia. - Gerardo [TS06/16]

Sturm, Friuli
Six bottles of Collio Rosso Andritz in a high quality original wooden box with hinged lid:
Originally, the idea of processing Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon grapes into high-quality cuvees came from France. In Italy, too, this classic combination enjoys great popularity and produces - as the example of the Sturm family shows - a long-lived red wine with a strong character:
The color of Andritz Rosso is a bright ruby red with violet inclusions. A broad spectrum of aromas opens up on the nose: ripe, red fruits peppered with exotic spices, plus intense notes of dried fruit and licorice.
