Pure varietal Cabernet Sauvignon produced according to the Amarone process, produced in a unique small edition of 1,333 bottles:

It is not Amarone, it is also no Cabernet...it is Cabarone! This Cabernet Sauvignon, made according to the Amarone method, revives the ancient tradition of grape drying, still a novelty in South Tyrol. - Gerardo [TS12/20]

Mille e una Notte · C.E. DOC 2019

Mille e una Notte is the flagship of Donnafugata: the rich bouquet captivates with floral notes, balsamic hints and hints of tobacco. On the palate, of convincing individual character and good balance between the alcoholic component and the soft tannins. Without exaggeration, this Nero d'Avola is a wine like from a thousand and one nights. - Gerardo [TS06/20]

"Intense and impenetrable color. Mediterranean aroma with notes of dark olives, summer undergrowth and candied lemon. The palate is dense, muscular but with energy and verticality thanks to the refined tannins and good salinity. The finish is intense, spicy, catchy and very long lasting." - Daniele Cernilli (Doctor Wine)
"Dark, elegant ruby red. On the nose of many ripe dark berries, underpinned by delicate spicy tones, a touch of precious wood and milk chocolate round out the bouquet. Very juicy on the palate with bright fruit, supported by grippy tannin, balsamic mineral touch, lightly earthy, pressured finish, good length." - Falstaff

Titolo Superiore · Aglianico del Vulture DOC 2019

A vintage full of character and charm: concentrated, rich and balanced, with an intense ruby color. Elegant and soft tannic structure, concentrated and aromatic of herbs and spices. Rich fruit reminiscent of cherry and sour cherry, with aromatic persistence and a finish reminiscent of tobacco, supported by an acidic note that gives an impressive freshness. Limited edition of only 400 bottles. - Gerardo [TS01/20]

"The 2018 Aglianico del Vulture Titolo Superiore pulls me deep into the glass to take in its beguiling bouquet, as balsamic spice, incense and crushed ashen rocks evolve into a mix of blackberries, sage and hints of animal musk. Cool-toned and finessed, this impresses with its savory, nearly salty character and perfumed black fruit profile, as brisk acids maintain a lovely freshness. A twang of sour citrus adds a bump of nervous energy toward the close, as the 2018 finishes with a web of silty tannins and hints of black currant that linger on. The Superiore is a selection that's refined for 12 months in tonneaux, followed by 12 months in used barrels and, finally 12 months in the bottle. It's aromatically stunning, with added textural depth and an enhanced structure that outhweighs the 2018 Titolo. Following this bottle for three days, I'm highly interested to see how it will mature of the coming years." - Antonio Galloni (Vinous)

Franciacorta Brut MAGNUM DOCG (2019) (1er Geschenkbox)

Pale straw yellow color with greenish reflections, very fine, persistent and almost creamy perlage. On the nose, subtle hints of bread crumb, notes of dried fruit, hazelnut, dried fig and cloves. Harmonious, fresh and invigorating on the palate. - Gerardo [TS12/20]

"With its elegant citrus scent, solid, full-bodied flavor and excellent spiciness, the Brut without vintage is a prime example of DOC." - Gambero Rosso

'Light yellow; compote yeasty fruit notes, makes curious; fine foam, fruity, sweetness, butter, celery, pleasant" - Andreas March (MERUM)

Includes a gift box (color may vary).

Amarone della Valpolicella DOC 2019

Stefano Campedelli's Amarone is a masterpiece of artisan winemaking: impenetrable ruby red color in the glass with violet nuances. The aroma is reminiscent of ripe wild berries, star anise, licorice and some graphite. Balsamic on the palate, with a soft texture and velvety tannins. - Gerardo [TS04/20]

"Rich and supple Amarone." - Gambero Rosso
"Bright, rich ruby; dense nose, slightly earthy notes at first, then lots of cinnamon, sweet wood, ripe plums and dark cherries; enters very melty and supple on the palate, showing ripe, lush fruit, very good volume, fine-grained, present tannins, tobacco on the finish." - Falstaff

"The 2019 Amarone della Valpolicella is darkly alluring and intense, bursting from the glass with an array of crushed black cherries, sage, stone dust and dark chocolate. It sweeps across the palate, vibrant and lively, with masses of salty minerals and depths of dark wild berry fruits, taking on a distinctly savory quality toward the close. The 2019 finishes gently tannic and incredibly long, leaving rosy inner florals and a saline tinge that lingers on and on and on. The 2019 is simply stunning and geared for a long and steady evollution." - Antonio Galloni (Vinous)

Didacus · Chardonnay Sicilia Menfi DOC 2019

"The back label of the two Didacus wines - the white from Chardonnay, the red from Cabernet Franc - reads: 'This bottle contains our vision of wine. Elegance and tradition. Family and future. Sicily as we have always dreamed of it.' Menfi and its vineyards between the sea and the hills, as a place of choice for growing French varieties - almost a Bolgheri of the South - is a vision that has accompanied the Planeta family since the mid-1980s." - Falstaff

"The 2019 Chardonnay Didacus is a pretty golden color. An exotic mix of crushed yellow apples and hints of peach is complemented by almond extract, vanilla custard and sweet smoke. This is seamlessly silky and nearly oily in feel, communicating undeniable elegance, with confectionery spices mixing with saline-minerals to create a push and pull of tension, as ripe orchard fruits settle upon the senses. The 2019 finishes impossibly long with a perfectly integrated hint of oak that lingers, which is more of an accent than a distraction, as a bitter trace of hazelnut slowly fades. This classy rendition of Didacus ranks among the top Italian Chardonnays that I’ve ever tasted." - Vinous

"The Didacus comes from the Contrada Ulmo from a plot planted in 1985. The fact that today more than 3,000 hectares of vineyards in Sicily are planted with Chardonnay certainly has a lot to do with Diego Planeta." - Weinwirtschaft

"The Kurni is a unique plant that can be recognized among thousands. Opinions about it differ, but it is undeniably a very personalized Montepulciano, with a phenomenal sales success. The fruity and creamy, then spicy density characterizes the Kurni. Despite its sweet and soft approaches, the taste evolves under the dictates of a uniform and very gentle tannin." - Slow Wine

Luce · Bolgheri Superiore DOC 2019

The Luce with its catchy label, is a world famous Sangiovese-Merlot blend with 24 months of barrel aging. The bouquet is floral and reminiscent of violets and roses, the tannic structure is smooth and tightly woven. On the palate, impressions of cocoa and balsamic notes, subtly smoky. For decades, this cuvée has stood for the skillful combination of two world-famous wine-growing countries and cultures: Italy (Sangiovese) and France (Merlot). - Gerardo [TS06/20]

"Dark ruby red. In the nose very expressive, after cassis, ground blueberries, in addition noble wood use, a breath sealing wax, in the reverberation fine malty notes. On the palate with lots of juice and pithy tannin, spreads over the tongue, with beautiful spicy notes, stoffig, in the reverberation then, however, a bit harsh and still very young." - Falstaff

"Accentuated aromas of blueberry, stone fruit and dark chocolate, also spices and sandalwood; in the mouth it presents its dense, tight tannin, but also has density and fullness until the ell-long finish on notes of black cherries and licorice." - Vinum

"An icon wine of the late 1990s and early 2000s, the Tenuta Luce Luce is recognized far and wide for its pretty sunshine motif on the front label. This mix of equal parts Sangiovese and Merlot is a symbolic marriage of Italy and France blended to safeguard the core identities of its two vinous protagonists. The Sangiovese adds wild rose, cherry and freshness; the Merlot brings on softness and texture. Each actor plays off the other in a flirtatious but ultimately complementary manner. This is a full-bodied Tuscan blend that will definitely give pleasure to that large crowd of Luce enthusiasts out there." - Robert Parker

"Violets, fresh mint and raspberry come together with reductive notes of tar as well as tobacco, leather and spices—cardamom jumps out in particular—on the complex nose of this wine. Dark berries emerge on the palate, with more herbs, spices, bitter chocolate and coffee grinds. The dusty tannins and searing acid confirm time will elevate this even further." - Danielle Callegari (Wine Enthusiast)

Sassicaia · Bolgheri Sassicaia DOC 2019

With its clear purity, the 2019 Sassicaia is close to the model of the perfect Cabernet: even after 51 vintages, Tenuta San Guido remains true to its roots and creates a dynamic and finesse-rich Maremma Cabernet that walks entirely on the paths of the great vintages. Sublime and multifaceted, the Sassicaia 51 still sees itself as a super-Tuscan blueprint, for which once even its own DOC was created. - Gerardo [TS07/20]

"Powerful, sparkling ruby. Intense and clear nose with lots of incisive fruit, currant and mulberry, then subtle notes of cedar needles and spicy cedar, light resinous notes in the background. Shows cool and polished on entry, lots of juicy dark berry fruit, opens with grippy, dense tannin in many layers, builds long, very powerful on the back end, rich pressure, very long finish, some tobacco and subtle mint notes on the finish, a wine with great and long future, pressure and elegance." - Falstaff

"Enticing aromas of blue flower, cassis, camphor and spice are front and center in this stunning red. The lithe, savory palate features black currant, red plum and star anise while tobacco notes linger on the long finish. Elegant, polished tannins and bright acidity keep it beautifully balanced and focused. Drink 2025–2044." - Wine Enthusiast

"Sassicaia 2019 spent 25 months in oak (one-third new). ‘We are going longer in oak in the past few years,’ said Carlo Paoli, managing director of Tenuta San Guido. Quite pale in the glass, the nose is extremely graceful and intense with a lavender note enhanced by restrained bramble fruits, fermented citrus peel, an intense violet aroma and graphite minerality in depth. The attack is soft and full, the flavor savoury and cedary through to the finish, with integrated velvety tannins and lifted acidity. A perfectly woven structure is bound with signature freshness and fruit vibrancy, making this one for the long haul." - Decanter

"The latest release from Tenuta San Guido is the 2019 Bolgheri Sassicaia. The bouquet is up front and very expressive from the get-go. It offers a generous display of crunchy, dark cherry that hints at the extra concentration and fruit weight obtained in the 2019 growing season. This vintage will be remembered for the crisp richness of the fruit and its important textural imprint. It also shows fine elegance, bordering on the ethereal, with berry aromas, tarry earth and brushes of balsam herb or grilled rosemary. Sassicaia always shows an almost-glossy finely knit quality to the polished mouthfeel, and I find it again here next to fresh acidity and firm tannins. Mouthfeel in 2019 is the wine's strongest suit. The 2019 is one of the prettiest and most balanced editions of Sassicaia we've seen this past decade, along with the back-to-back duo of 2016 and 2015. The 2019 marries the precision of the 2016 with the rich fruit weight of the 2015" - Wine Advocate

This is how Solaia was born, made from the most select grapes of Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Sangiovese from the vineyard of the same name. - Gerardo [TS11/20]

"Dark luminous ruby red with opaque core. Fragrant and elegant nose, complex, of cassis and black currants, plus the finest precious wood, then again interplay of ripe blackberries and fine spicy components. On the palate enormously polished and finesse, with clear, present fruit and well-integrated tannin, comes along in many layers, precise, very long." - Falstaff

"Extraordinary rich aromas on the nose, with notes of blueberries, blackcurrants, sweet spices, tobacco and tar notes. Exciting and elegant on the palate, dense and velvety tannins, almost perfect with a structure of rare finesse, harmonious and powerful. The finish is of endless length. Great wine." - Daniele Cernilli (Doctor Wine)

"This wine has a deeply savory nose, with seaweed, soy sauce, olives, tobacco, black licorice and a rich medley of cherries, blackberries and plums. The fruity, spicy palate brings more berries, dark chocolate and chili peppers, emphasized by palpable heat and sticky but gentle tannins through a seemingly infinite finish. It’s exceptionally drinkable now, but a few more years would guarantee a command performance." - Danielle Callegari (Wine Enthusiast)

Sassicaia · 1x Bolgheri Sassicaia DOC 2018, 1x Bolgheri Sassicaia DOC 2019, 1x Bolgheri Sassicaia DOC 2020 (3er Holzkiste)

One bottle each of Bolgheri Sassicaia vintages 2018, 2019 and 2020 in a high quality wooden box with hinged lid:

Description Sassicaia 2020: The harvest began in the first week of September with the grapes from the younger vineyards, starting with the Cabernet Franc, then continued with the Cabernet Sauvignon from the vineyards at lower altitudes and ended in the last week of September with the grapes from the hills above 300 meters above sea level.

The grapes were selected using a sorting table to eliminate impurities and imperfections. Gentle pressing and careful destemming of the grapes to preserve the integrity of the berries and avoid excessive transfer of tannins. Alcoholic fermentation was completed at the end of October and took place regularly and at controlled temperatures. Frequent racking and pumping over allowed for excellent aroma extraction and fresh acidity in the musts. Malolactic fermentation took place in steel tanks at the end of November. In the first week of December, the wine was racked into oak barriques after frequent decanting to clean the musts.

At the end of malolactic fermentation, the wine was aged in barriques with 45% new wood, 45% first passage and 10% second passage. After more than 25 months of ageing in wood, the Sassicaia 2020 was transferred to steel tanks before final blending and bottling. It is then refined in the bottle before being released onto the market.

Description Sassicaia 2019: With its purist purity, the 2019 Sassicaia is close to the model of the perfect Cabernet: even after 51 vintages, Tenuta San Guido remains true to its roots and creates a dynamic and finesse-rich Maremma Cabernet that walks entirely on the paths of the great vintages. Sublime and multifaceted, the Sassicaia 51 still sees itself as a Tuscan super Tuscan blueprint, for which once even its own DOC was created.

Description Sassicaia 2018: the red wine icon of Italy turns 50: fifty vintages have passed from 1968 to 2018 and fifty editions of this pioneering Super Tuscan blueprint have been created. Yet the 2018 vintage could not be more typical: Balanced and rich in finesse, this anniversary Sassicaia presents itself as an archetype for which even its own DOC was once created. - Gerardo [TS07/21]

This is how Solaia was born, made from the most select grapes of Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Sangiovese from the vineyard of the same name. - Gerardo [TS11/20]

Sassicaia · Bolgheri Sassicaia DOC 2019 (6er Holzkiste)

Six bottles of Bolgheri Sassicaia in a high quality original wooden box:

With its clear purity, the 2019 Sassicaia is close to the model of the perfect Cabernet: even after 51 vintages, Tenuta San Guido remains true to its roots and creates a dynamic and finesse-rich Maremma Cabernet that walks entirely on the paths of the great vintages. Sublime and multifaceted, the Sassicaia 51 still sees itself as a super-Tuscan blueprint, for which once even its own DOC was created. - Gerardo [TS07/20]
