Antonio Gismondi
Cerreto 2023

A delicate, weightless wine that seems to evaporate on the palate. The extraction is gentle and restrained, leaving the wine a pale gold with lifted aromas of floral blossom and white grapefruit pith, with just a hint of smokiness creeping through from the basalt bedrock. Find out more.

The colour of a brick-tinged Nebbiolo in the glass, this singular red/white blend of Catarratto and Pignatello really captures the essence of this far-flung volcanic island.

Cà de Noci
Sottobosco 2022

We've often likened this incredible Lambrusco-style sparkling red to a liquid summer pudding; there is the tart attack of forest fruits, but offset by a creamy, lactic element.
