Mauro Vergano's legendary aromatizzati number some of the great apertivi. Vermouth rosso with more bitter components than the typical Torino style. Exquisitely composed and incredibly delicious. Best served over ice, with a slice of orange and a splash of soda. Find out more.

Mauro's take on Piemonte's most famous digestif, Chinato. Fortified and sweetened Nebbiolo, infused with a host of aromatics from cardamom to ginseng, all tied together by the bitter China bark that gives the wine its name. Find out more.

Mauro Vergano's legendary aromatizzati number some of the great apertivi. Vermouth bianco with more bitter components than the typical Torino style. Exquisitely composed and incredibly delicious. Best served over ice, with a slice of lemon or grapefruit and a splash of soda. Find out more.

An authentic taste of real-deal old school Prosecco, from the days before mass-production moved away from the traditional method. Bottle-fermented, col fondo style - as it should be. Find out more.

After-dinner Mauro. Still credited as the only white Chinato out there, think of this as something like a Moscato d’Asti, but amped up with a host of citrus and herbs, and given a distinct bitter backbone with the use of quinine bark. Find out more.

Fabio's entry-point Catarratto that blends grapes from both his sandy coastal vines and those from the valley, further inland. Sharp-edged and linear, with zesty white peach and apricot stone fruits cut through with a long beam of acidity. A wine that speaks of the ocean breeze and rolling hills of western Sicily. Find out more.

The classic Sicilian red grape Nero d'Avola, here in wonderfully expressive form and with an invitingly accessible price-tag. The nose is filled with cherries, currants, chocolate and plum. On the palate the wine is round and full with elegant tannins. Find out more.

Here, fifty year old vines sit between 350 to 500 metres above sea level and the wine spends four months on skins in tini, before being pressed off to old chestnut botti to rest for a year and a half. This is a fruit-forward and less austere take on Nebbiolo. Find out more.

A real gateway wine for us here at Wayward, and one that taught us that Nebbiolo isn't all about Barolo and Barbaresco. Lithe and elegant with nimble red cherry fruits and a charred rose petal perfume. Find out more.

A classic red Sicilian blend given the Lamoresca treatment. The elevated inland location of the vines retains freshness, but Filippo still sees this as one of his serious wines - floral dark fruits framed by a neat tannins and that wild, herbaceous quality that seems to always find its way into the wines of this island. Find out more.

A bone-dry, traditional method sparkling wine from a producer more principally associated with the production of fine Marsala. Peachy stone fruit and salty sea minerals with a toasty richness beneath it all. Find out more.

Sweet, passito-style wine made with the old-fashioned, labour-of-love method: Moscato grapes have their shoots cut and are left on the vine to dry out and create very high natural sugar levels before being pressed and fermented. This nectar is an absolute must for fans of Moscato d'Asti. Find out more.

Biodynamically-farmed, zero-sulphur Barolo? Not something you see every day. Ferdinando's entry-point, from the youngest vines on the estate, showing all that bold, chewy, sweet leather character, but with some generous fruit vigour that steers this wine away from severity, even in its (relative) youth. Find out more.

A powerful, structured expression of Verdicchio that can age with aplomb. Highly concentrated, oily lemon citrus, a little opulence from time in barrel and a distinct salinity from the ancient sea bed over which the vines are planted. A serious wine best enjoyed with some good pasta or seafood. Find out more.

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. As you'd hope from this style, the tannins grip keenly and there is an iron-y, sanguine quality to the dark wine. Find out more.

The smart money is on Montevertine Rosso to offer a stunning expression of Sangiovese from this lauded Tuscan producer without completely breaking the bank. A perfect balance of power and delicacy. Find out more.
