Nothing beats the diversity of Italy's deep lip-staining 'black reds'. Hold them to the light and you can barely see through.
However, once you taste what's inside the glass you're greeted by a rush of intense flavour – from ripe and silky to savoury, smoky and dense.
From the island of Sicily, you'll taste pure 92pt Tenuta Fenice Nero d'Avola 2022 grown in the decades-old hillside vineyard of the Taschetta family. Scipione Giuliani's super-concentrated Il Papavero Papaverone 2020 is the Grand Cru version of the original Il Papavero. Made with air-dried grapes in the rich appassimento-style used in Amarone.
Representing sunny Puglia and the region's famous Primitivo grape, there's Angelo Maci's beloved Double Gold-medal 95pt Pillastro 2021 (our #1 Italian red of all time), outstanding Ognissole 2019 from Gioia del Colle DOC (meaning 'jewels of the hill'), and the weighty Amarone-style Uncle Zin 2019.
Completing the collection is Leonardo Palumbo's 'Speciale Selezione' Palumbo 2022 – a velvety-black ensemble of Nero di Troia, Negroamaro and Primitivo awarded 95pts by Luca Maroni.
This acclaimed 91pt Collezione di Paolo Chianti Riserva 2019 was crafted by legendary winemaker Paolo Masi. Aged in oak barrels for 14 months – the silky Sangiovese is ripe with plum and morello cherry, savoury hits of dark chocolate and generous hints of baking spice.

Chianti is one of Italy's great classic reds, while Riserva denotes a superior wine with ageing. This Gold medal 2018 is from a family estate we've worked with for 30 years. From Tuscany's highly regarded Rufina area, this is long, complex and silky.
Nero d'Avola is one of the hero grapes of Sicily, creating "elegant, age-worthy wines" (Fiona Beckett theguardian.com).
Today, you can sample the sumptuous Ognissole Organic Primitivo 2019, a lavish ‘black red’ of extraordinary depth and intensity from Puglia.
A rich, spicy wine from Italy’s Puglia. It’s made from pure Primitivo, the Italian name for California’s Zinfandel, air-dried for 4 weeks to add even more intense, punchy flavour, just like they do for pricey Amarone.
Winemaker Leonardo Palumbo is so proud of this delicious juicy red that he’s put his name on the label. Crafted using a blend of three premium Puglian grapes – Nero di Troia, Negroamaro and Primitivo.
Packed with spiced plum and raspberry flavour, this is a rich, dark, velvety red.
Amarone is the northern Italian classic red wine that commands lifelong allegiances and huge prices. Papaverone is made in the same way, using southern Italian grapes. The result is a wine every bit as rich, but much juicier and riper.
