ITALIAN WINES

BOSCO ALBANO

A family story. "Bosco" means forest and it is because once the estate was a forest of beeches, poplars and oaks. "Albano" was the name of the father of Luigi and Tarcisio Durante, who are the owners of the winery. Many years ago the estate belonged to their father, but he had to sell it. In the '90s, the two brothers decided to buy it back, determined to make their father Albano's dream come true.

Pinot Grigio DOC Friuli

A wine that represents the outstanding vocation for white wine production in the Friuli region. In every glass of Pinot Grigio you can relive the flavour of vines, feel the strength of vine-dressers and the sweetness of September, the harvest month, as delicate and lively as the fruity notes that give character to this wine.

A dry white wine with straw yellow colour with soft coppery highlights.  Intense aromas of golden apples & yellow flowers; flavours of pears, apples & peaches. Pleasant acidity with a long finish. These characteristics make it an excellent wine full of character.

AWARDS AND ACKNOWLEDGMENTS:  Falstaff Prosecco Trophy 2022 – 90 pts

Villa i Cipressi started to produce Brunello di Montalcino and Rosso di Montalcino in the year 2000. The winery has 3.5 hectares of Sangiovese vines at two locations. One is in the south part of the municipality in the area of Castelnuovo dell’Abate at 250m above sea level with primarily silty sandy soil which gives the grapes great structure and an elevated alcohol content. The other is in a wooded area on the western side of the hill at 450m above sea level of mostly limestone but with a slight presence of clay in the soil which produces grapes and wines that are especially fragrant and aromatic. Both lots afford an ideal location facing south, favouring a perfect maturation of the grapes. The two vineyards, different in soil and in microclimate, allow for a blend which enriches and betters the quality of the wine.

From over 60 year old mixed plantation vineyards (Albillo vines planted randomly alongside Tempranillo) the Nala VC 2022 Albillo DO Ribera del Duero was grown in extreme drought conditions that resulted in very low yield but as is often the case in difficult years the resulting small grapes were perfect.

Manually harvested and aged for 11-12 months in large 500 litre barrels or Tonneau, the Nala VC 2022 is a brilliant golden colour. Clean aromas of tropical fruit such as pineapple and lychee. On the pallet, fresh pears and peaches stand out in this creamy full bodied wine with lovely long finish.
