Paolo’s estate is situated in the Rufina sub-zone, which Wine Enthusiast describes as “one of the most quality driven zones” and Hugh Johnson as “the most distinctive, making some particularly elegant wines...” High on a hill overlooking the Argomenna valley, Paolo’s land is a prime spot for Sangiovese, placed on a par with Chianti Classico since the 18th century.

New Zealand is a lovely place to visit, especially if you’re a wine lover.
And there’s one variety that everyone simply can’t get enough of: the fruit-driven, leap-from-the-glass, aromatic, lipsmacking, mouthwatering Sauvignon Blancs. They are absolutely irresistible!
Luckily, you don’t have to visit to taste their marvellous wines. We have some very good friends in New Zealand who give us access to their beautiful wines – like the lovely Company Bay Sauvignon Blanc 2024, from the Trophy-winning Siefried Estate in Nelson, just up the coast from the famous Marlborough region. Bursting with flavour and shining with style, it really gives the Marlborough Savvies a run for their money – and it’s incredible value too!
At least 2,400 hours of sunshine a year, cool sea breezes and rich soil lend a zesty brilliance and richness of fruit to the Sauvignons of Nelson. That’s why this one boasts such thrilling intensity. With its rush of pure citrus, gooseberry and tropical fruit, it’s a classic New Zealand Sauvignon that dazzles at the very first sip.
Our customers love it:
“Such a lovely wine … another of my favourites” … “A joy to the taste buds …very refreshing” …
“This is the perfect bargain New Zealander for zingy zesty lemon crunch with a lashing of sea air!”
We think you will love it too, especially if you’re serving seafood – this is the perfect match. It’s also a refreshing drop just to sip on at the end of a long day.
