Chinati Vergano
Chinato

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.

Chinati Vergano
Luli

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.

Ar.Pe.Pe.
Rosso di Valtellina 2022

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.

Ar.Pe.Pe.
Grumello Rocca de Piro Valtellina Superiore 2019

This is a fruit-forward, less austere take on Nebbiolo. A generous take on Mountain Nebbiolo that offers great pleasure in its youth. A real pleasure to drink. Find out more.

Lamoresca
Rosso 2022

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.

Marco de Bartoli
Terzavia 2021

Fabio Ferracane
Guanciabianca 2023

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.

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. 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.

  • Region Quattro Castella, Emilia-Romagna, Italy
  • Grapes Lambrusco di Montericco, Malbo Gentile, Lambrusco Grasparossa & Sgavetta
  • Vineyard Organic
  • Cellar Fermented with native yeasts, unfiltered & unfined, no additional sulphites
