With some bottle ageing, this 2018 packs a punch. Nerello Mascalese is Sicily’s star variety and usually grown around the foot of Mount Etna. These mineral-rich volcanic soils help the vines produce grapes that are rich in both complex minerals and a fine acidity. This exciting red has smoky minerality with rich red cherry fruit and a nimble body that dances along the palate.

Soft, ripe and easy to enjoy, this reliable no added sulphur Merlot lets the purity of the fruit shine through beautifully. Smooth and generous on the palate, it offers an approachable, fruit-led style with plenty of easy charm. Ripe dark fruit and a rounded texture make it immediately appealing, while the no added sulphur approach helps preserve the wine’s freshness and natural character. Easy-drinking yet full of personality, it’s a delicious example of how enjoyable this style can be.

Sangiovese comes in many guises in the hands of Italian winemakers and this is given the classic treatment with the added bonus of organic status. Dense, ruby red in colour, intense flavours of juicy black fruit and jam like qualities with undertones of spices, liquorice and violets. Harmonious and silky tannins give a well structured body with a luscious, fruit back palate leading to a long lingering finish.
