Make a splash with this large-format version of the 750 mL 994616. Its bold, generous black cherry, vanilla and mint make it a gorgeous centrepiece for your family holiday meal.

Like an adoring 'tatone' (grandfather), this wine is warm and inviting, ageing beautifully while showing a touch of youthful exuberance. Expect notes of dark blue fruit, cocoa, and coffee beans, with hints of black licorice on the finish.[Luca Maroni tasting note not available.] Score - 96. (lucamaroni.com, July 24, 2024)

This offering from Spinelli is a delightful fruit-forward Chardonnay, fermented in stainless to preserve freshness. The nose shows reserved aromas of orchard fruit and melon that replay on the medium-weight palate. The wine is dry with a seam of food-friendly acidity. Try this Chardonnay with roasted chicken and potatoes.

This wine just hits all the marks. It's ripe and finely balanced, with black fruit, spice, and a perfectly judged tannic grip. It has the composure to age for another 3+ years but will be perfectly poised and ready tonight with grilled meats or a meaty pasta dish.

Produced from montepulciano grape, in the heart of the province of Chieti in Abruzzo. This ruby red wine is bright with lively aromas of chestnut and red plum and hints of spice and herbs. Soft and pleasing on the palate with balanced flavours and a good length finish.
