ITALY
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.

TASTING NOTES
Of all the Gaja Crus Costa Russi often displays the most exuberant nose and palate of elegant and crystal purity. Always dense and complex, with heightened mineral and taut fruit character. In 2003 the warmth of the year has made for a forward and voluptous style. Drink now and over the next 10 years

TASTING NOTES
Compact, taut, powerful, the most reticent of the three. With a little time in the glass the perfume starts to hint at what this wine is capable of: red fruit, rose, rich spice and a sense of stones. This is deeply mineral with a real sense of purpose and line. There is such delicacy to the fruit and an outstanding...

TASTING NOTES
Wow, there is a very impressive freshness here that defies the heat of this vintage. The 2017 Saffredi does not seem like a 2017 at all. Now celebrating its 30th birthday, Saffredi is 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot and 10% Petit Verdot. Thanks to the vineyard's proximity to the sea, leaving leaves on the vines and the sharp diurnal shifts...

TASTING NOTES
Overall, there is a profound sense of purity and intensity - vibrant fruit supported by super ripe acidity, with haunting minerality and a ripe tannic frame. Seductive aromatics of cassis, violets and dried, almost sweet herbs lead to a palate brimming with ripe, dark, intense fruit. The sheer density of this majestic wine is deftly balanced with a core of...
