Italy is a wonderful patchwork quilt of a country with incredible regionality and local traditions. Nowhere is this more apparent than in the rich profusion of indigenous grape varieties that grace the slopes and plains of many of Italy's wine-producing regions. While wine production dates back centuries, it wasn't until relatively recently that a wave of producers set new benchmarks for fine Italian Wines. Whether you like a more modernist or traditionalist approach, international or indigenous varieties, the Italian wine scene has never been more exciting.

This is a classic Valmaggiore release: charming and open, with hints of wild strawberry and black cherry. It is reminiscent of Pinot Noir – the delicacy, the prettiness. Ample and round mouthfeel, with precision and tension, ending with a grippy tannic structure. Firm and imposing.

The 2011 vintage saw Perlato del Bosco Rosso make a glorious return to its Sangiovese-only origins; one of the very few pure Sangiovese wines on the Tuscan coast. Pure, black fruit bursts from the glass with subtle highlights of earth, leather and smoke. The palate mirrors the intense, dark berries and adds heady aromas of fragrant herbs, flaunting its depth...

The 2010 Villero demonstrates remarkable approachability. Somewhat softer and riper than the other two Crus but still with the Barolo trademark structure of tannins and acidity, it is perhaps the concentration of sweet cherry fruit and floral notes here that gives it this accessibility. A classic Barolo all round with roses, tar and violets all featuring heavily on the palate....

A tiny bit sbdued with the cranberry and cherry fruit just coming out. Just a hint of black pepper and rusty nail. Sappy cranberry and raspberry fruit on the palate and with just the right dose of coating tannins. […]. Juicy and lively finish with tannic bite and with an elegant palate weight.16.5/20, Walter Speller MW, Jancisrobinson.com

Deep nose of cherry with hints of dark spice and just a touch of malt and a hint of mint. Succulent cherry fruit with a touch of gingerbread and gorgeous, finely ground tannins that go on and on without demanding all the attention. Elegant rather than powerful, but skilfully executed.17+/20, Walter Speller MW, Jancisrobinson.com

Subtle but concentrated cherry fruit nose with savoury, minerally top notes. With aeration, more lift, and perfumed cherry fruit, but still very shy. Completely closed on the palate but with a layer of long powdery tannins and sappy acidity. Very embryonic.16.5+/20, Walter Speller MW, Jancisrobinson.com

Guidalberto is a blend of 60% Cabernet Sauvignon and 40% Merlot that carries the hallmark elegance and finesse that runs through Sassicaia, the sweet fruited Tuscan character of the Bolgheri area and the enticing aromas that Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot are capable of creating together. Spending twenty months in one-third new oak barrels, this wine is irresistible two years from...
