| A gentle Sangiovese based blend with soft red fruits, herbal notes, and a touch of spice. Though the wine's roots run deep in the region's history and the blend is based on Tuscany's most representative grape, Sangiovese (60%), 385 is given a more "modern" cut with the addition of Merlot (20%), Ciliegiolo (10%) and Syrah (10%). |
| | Bunches of bright red fruits, rose petal and just a hint of cinnamon carry through from the nose to the palate. The exceedingly bright, fresh flavours balance with a depth of flavour and a supple, silky tannin structure. This would be absolutely perfect to drink right away but will also be rewarded by a further one to three years of cellaring, to develop slightly more nuanced flavours. |
| | Whole bunch pressed and racked to ferment with natural yeasts. Minimal skin contact results in a blush of colour and fine, peppery phenolics. The wine is dry with appealing layers of tree fruits and hazelnut flavours. It has surprising power. |
|
| Fresh citrus and orchard fruit aromas and flavours, with a minerally element adding vivacity. Silky and precise, showing good lift but a bit of heat in the mid-palate. It is balanced and persistent with plenty of lively acidity. |
| | The nose prevails clean aromas of good intensity with hints of fruit apricot, pineapple, and apple on a background of hay and white flowers. The palate is broad, satiny, with a balanced acidity that gives it freshness and elegance. |
| |
The wine is matured in 50% old oak plus 50% stainless steel for 18 months. The taste is a combination of cherries, savory spice and dried herbs.
Great with all italian food ! |

| Plum black in colour, with complex aromas of cherry, plum & violets. Smooth & round on the palate with a rich raisin character- supple tannins and a long finish
|
| | Lovely floral aromas with notes of quince and red apple lead onto a really fresh and bright palate with delicate apple, pear and berry fruit notes, a light refreshing tang and very light tannins with a hint of spice on the finish. Considering this is a natural wine there is no 'funk' or aggressive acidity or tannins, everything is in balance and has been well put together. |

| | 80% Mourvèdre, with the balance being Carignan, Grenache and Cinsault. Mourvèdre forms the backbone of the wine which has a quite dizzying complexity on the nose where plump bramble and cassis notes mix up with earthy spice and sage. On the palate it's silky smooth with the fruitiness following through nicely with black pepper and soft spice flavours chipping in as well. |

|
| This has a pale straw colour with a fresh almond nose and a wonderful dry finish. Excellent with tapas and especially salted almonds. |
| | Bright and lively, there isn’t a moment unsuited to enjoying this exhilarating wine. The structure is there to age, but lurks in the background, giving just enough support so as not to dominate the character. I could drink this now, but I must resist temptation. |
