Reverdito Barolo Codane 2005
100% Nebbiolo grapes,nice fruit nose,soft,forward fruity flavors with hints of leather. Alcoholic fermentation is steel tank,then two and half years in new French oak barrels, 1 to two months in steel tank before bottling.Released one year after bottling. Great with read meats.

Calosm Primitivo Iacco
100% Primitivo grapes. After resting in stainless steel tanks it rest another 8 to 10 months in barrique and 4 more months in the bottle before is released. Deep red color smoky nose with hints of vanilla and jam in your mouth. This wine is goes pretty much any typical southern Italian dish and its easy on your pocketbook.

Benanti Rosso Verzella
Made with two different grapes Nerello Mascalese and Nerello Cappuccio. From the slopes of Mount Etna comes this warm and full spice wine. Ruby red, ethereal intense scent with hints of vanilla and ripe fruit. The taste is elegant harmonic and remarkably persistent.

Laila Verdicchio di Jesi
You can describe is wine as Verde (green).Maybe because of his wild flowers flagrance. It`s dry smooth with a slightly bitter aftertaste and good acidity. Perfect with fish or on its own before dinner.

Montaribaldi Moscato d`Asti
This beautiful, slightly spritzy wine is great as an aperitif. But will be great to end dinner.  The bouquet is elegant with clean honeysuckle mingled with honeydew melon.
