Lovers of fine Italian wines, La Dolce Vita is waiting for you with this delicious 3-region collection of luscious reds.
They come from top estates (and our very good friends) in Tuscany, Puglia and Sicily, and they are guaranteed to delight.
Saracosa Governo Rosso 2023, Toscana IGT, Italy A gorgeously rich red made by the talented Sofia Barbanera at her family’s beautiful Tuscan estate. Turbo-charged Amarone-style by dried Sangiovese and Merlot grapes, it's filled with black cherry intensity, mocha and spice. Luca Maroni has awarded it 98 points four years in a row and Oz Clarke calls it "hedonists' heaven". It’s a truly dazzling star you will love!
Pillastro Susumaniello 2022, Puglia IGP, Italy The great Angelo Maci (maker of our bestselling Pillastro Primitivo) from the multi-award-winning Cantine Due Palme winery is the legend behind this power-packed black red. This wine is lush, dark, smoky and decadent – the perfect pizza partner.
Tenuta Fenice Nero d’Avola 2023, Sicilia DOC, Italy “Nero d’Avola ... creates elegant, age-worthy wines” (Fiona Beckett) and this one from “exciting” (Tim Atkin, MW) Sicily is one you must try. It’s made by Dino Taschetta from a centuries-old vineyard that belonged to his grandfather, abandoned after an earthquake. He revived the ancient vines, and the result is this jewel of a red, packed with black fruits and spice.
This is a wonderful collection, and if you’re a fan of fine Italian wines, it’s one you really mustn’t miss!
Enjoy 6 mouthwatering whites and 6 decadently rich reds at an exceptional price – but only if you’re quick!
Farnese Vini is based in a beautiful, ancient castle in Abruzzo. Its wines are LOVED by our customers (and the critics too!). The inaugural vintage of the Ultima Edizione red debuted to International Wine Challenge Red Wine of the Year honours – and it’s had a cult following ever since. The lipsmacking, white has its own fans too … elegant and citrussy, you’ll find yourself wanting more … and more. Today, you can enjoy them both in one great case.
Farnese Vini’s Ultima Edizione NV is a bold blend of four top Italian grapes: Montepulciano, Sangiovese, Primitivo, and Negroamaro. Crafted by Dennis Verdecchia, it’s rich, spicy, and decadently intense — a true Italian powerhouse.
Ultima Edizione Bianco is a luxurious blend of Pecorino, Moscato, and Sauvignon, usually made for Rome’s top restaurants. Bursting with guava, apricot, and peach aromas, it’s crisp, citrusy, and full of elegant charm – la dolce vita in a glass.
Legendary winemaker Angelo Maci (of Pillastro fame) brings us this bold, dark red from Cantine Due Palme. Made with Susumaniello — meaning "loaded like a donkey" — it's packed with rich, smoky flavour. Lush and decadent, it's perfect with pizza.
The grapes come from very old vines - between 60 and 100 years old. Yields are minute (about half of a Grand Cru Bordeaux), which accounts for the opulently black colour and incredible intensity of flavour. The power-packed wine was then aged in oak casks to lend an even more luxurious layer of creamy rich and lavish oak complexity. This is an outstanding, weighty red that even manages to out-power the original Cabalié – it's that deep and concentrated! It will be a truly decadent and delicious partner to your year-end parties and Chinese New Year feasts - and it will look wonderful on the table too.
