San Marzano Timo Vermentino 2025
San Marzano Timo Vermentino is a vibrant, highly aromatic white wine from the sun-drenched vineyards of Salento, Puglia. Crafted by the celebrated Cantine San Marzano, this premium bottling is a distinctive expression of Southern Italy's rugged coastline. Its name is inspired by the wild thyme bushes that line the Ionian shore, reflecting a beautiful, terroir-driven character that brings the spirit of the Mediterranean straight to the glass. Why You'll Love It This is a spectacularly fresh and mineral-driven Vermentino that offers a beautiful alternative to more common Italian white varieties. Produced by a world-class cooperative that seamlessly blends time-honoured Apulian traditions with cutting-edge modern techniques, it captures the raw energy of coastal viticulture. It balances a delightfully exotic floral bouquet with an invigorating, ocean-cooled crispness, making it a luxurious choice for warm-weather entertaining and sophisticated dining. Vineyard & Production The grapes are grown in Brindisi, Salento, where vines are rooted in shallow, sandy soils just 100 metres above sea level, benefiting from warm sunshine tempered by regular sea breezes. Following a careful harvest, the fruit is destemmed and given a brief cold skin soak to extract delicate aromas. A gentle pressing follows, with fermentation taking place in stainless steel tanks at a cool 15 degrees Celsius. The wine is then matured entirely in stainless steel for five months, preserving its pristine freshness, varietal purity, and elegant mineral edge. Tasting Notes Displaying a bright, pale straw colour, this elegant white wine opens with an exotic bouquet of white flowers and zesty citrus, enhanced by distinct herbal notes of wild thyme, rosemary, and crisp green apple. On the palate, it is remarkably refreshing and beautifully structured, combining a vibrant core of stone fruit with a distinct mineral tension. The finish is remarkably clean, showing a lingering, saline-infused zesty lift that bea
Santa Tresa Grillo Viognier Organic 2024
Santa Tresa Rina Ianca is an innovative blend of Grillo , an indigenous Sicilian grape, and Viognier, perfectly suited to the warm, sun-drenched vineyards of Sicily . The minerality and freshness of Grillo is beautifully balanced by the intensity and body of Viognier. Straw yellow in colour, the wine opens with layered aromas of white fruits, including peaches, evolving into delicate notes of apricot and fresh herbs. The palate is mineral-driven yet soft, well balanced, and finishes elegantly. Why You'll Love It This is certified organic Sicilian white wine crafted with exceptional care. Viognier is harvested at the end of August, with Grillo picked in early September, both chilled overnight at 6–8°C to preserve aromatic intensity. After gentle destemming and soft pressing, the must settles overnight at 10°C for natural sedimentation. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel at 17–19°C for 10–12 days to retain freshness, followed by four months of lees ageing to add texture and complexity.
