If you’ve never had Brunello before, 2019 was an amazing year, so this will be one to hold onto for a very special occasion. Palate is all silky but bold fruits that'll change your life and have you travelling to Italy ASAP. Decant for perfection.

San Giorgio Brunello di Montalcino 2019

Grown at 400m above sea level over 26 hectares that are surrounded by olive groves. Talk about an Italian vision of perfection. Tastes beautiful, like; cherry skins, deep red fruits and scrub land.

San Giorgio Rosso di Montalcino 2020

Sangiovese that comes perfectly dressed for winter with warming plush cherries and brambly forestal fruits. This drinks with some sweet tobacco too, and a plenty of value. Before you ask. Yes, it’s go perfectly with your ragu.

Piantaferro Chianti 2022

Full and rich but still showing plenty of floral elegance. Siblings, Pierro and Benedetta, use precise methods to ensure the best possible combination of concentration, acidity and ripe tannins. Brilliant, age-worthy.

Poggerino Chianti Classico 2022

Mother-daughter winemakers that have made something brilliant! Deliciously open and easy drinking with juicy purple violets and sweet cherries. Made with most Sangiovese, but a little Colorino, Canaiolo and Ciliegiolo thrown in for balance and expression.

Galognano La Foresta Chianti Colli Senesi 2022

Felsina Chianti Classico 2021

Lovely, lifted fruit that’s bright and has blue fruits, sweet cherries and dusty tannins. We're in love. Made with a traditional Tuscan blend – Sangiovese, Colorino and Canaiolo. If you never fell for an Italian, this is what it’s like – juicy is the beginning, but a savoury edge that keeps things sharp, then after 750mls there’s nothing left and it’s over. You'll always have the memories though.

Selvapiana Chianti Rufina 2022

This feels like the kind of wine to warm you up a little on a spring evening by the river when it just gets a little colder than you thought it would do. With bread, and a basket of cheeses, antipasti and some glasses we think you’ll have an evening to remember and come back for a second bottle.

Sensi Vernaccia di San Gimignano 2022

A great Italian red that's safe, approachable, sensible and delicious! Feels like a dinner party bottle, but night-in worthy too, we can’t decide whether it’s more dark choc and Scacchi, or chicken cacciatore and mates. Either option sounds great.

Cantina Etrusca Morellino di Scansano 2022

Deliciously ripe and fleshy cherry notes, wrapped delicately in tobacco leaf and a lovely bitter cherry edge in this Chianti that’s sitting more in the plush and weightier.

Tenuta Casabianca Chianti Collo Senesi 2021

A crowd-pleasing bambino that’s got cool dad vibes to match your perfectly worn jeans. Made by a legend, Vittorio Fiore, who’s extracted rich dark cherries and leathery tannins in this mostly, Sangiovese blend. Dinner-worthy, but with lazy, afternoon ease – perfect.

Fiore Nero Chianti 2021

A classic feel and shape – think Mulberries, red cherry jam building through leather, dried herbs and gentle savoury tannins.

Monteguelfo Chianti DOCG 2021

Prugnolo is a local dialect word used in Montepulciano for Sangiovese. Prugnolo is typically grown on clay-limestone which when combined with the Mediterranean climate produces a lively but structured wine. This Boscarelli is a smidge lighter than some others so expect a juicy core and a flowing great night.

Boscarelli Prugnolo Rosso di Montepulciano 2023

An annual treat! After time in concrete with indigenous yeast, the wine is given a stint in oak which comes through in every sip as toasted wood spice. You’ll also get a bracing acidity and plenty of refined cherry liqueur notes.
