Italian wines

Italian wines, where to start? Italy really has so many regionally diverse and distinctive wine styles with unique tastes and wine making techniques, which makes it very hard to generalise. But we love them all here, the Ripassos and Amarone wines of the Veneto, the tart but luscious Chiantis, Barolo, Barbera, Nebbiolo, from Piemonte, to the wine from volcanic soils of Mount Etna, Sicily and Puglia. La vita è bella!

I must say the wine list here is amazing. Top quality and what I like the most is a rich info on every presented bottle. Pure example when someone puts their heart and knowledge into it. I had a few Burgundy ones and they were delicious! Superb packaging and delivery as well.

I stumbled across this wine merchant while searching online for a particular Spanish wine. I'm glad I did as I discovered an excellent selection of wines from that country, as well as from other regions, all at competitive prices. Excellent personal service and prompt delivery made for a great overall experience. Highly recommended

The owner Chris provides an incredible customer experience. After I had ordered online, he contacted me separately to offer additional insights into all the wines I had chosen and to give me a voucher for next time.
