FRAGOLINO ROSSO BOTTEGA - BIBANO-TREVISO 750 ml

OK, so here’s another bottle with a label I liked, which is why I wanted to try this wine. We have been "trying" it ever since. The grapes are harvested manually and then hand selected for fermentation, yet again reminding me of New Zealand and its many boutique vineyards. With notes of plum and spices, this is a down-to-earth wine with a medium to full body that we love.

You recognize a great wine immediately. The aroma and taste arrest your attention and captivate your senses. Our experience is simply that we love good quality and know it when we see it. This is our recommendation to you - try our selection of wines and you will be equally captivated.

"Significant tannins and rich blackberry velvet. Good." Primitivo is a fine grape from Italy. Pairs well with beef and pasta.

Expert wine reviewers such as Vivino proclaimed it to be "Good value for money. Similar wines usually cost 41% more…"

So, in a nutshell this falls into our own invented category of "wines we like." In this way we signify that these are very good table wines, and affordable for drinking with your everyday meals. Note that we also carry another category called "wines we love," just to differentiate, as those are very special and yes, pricey, thus reserved for special occasions.

This wine is exceptional!

Deliciously fresh and aromatic with notes of strawberry and raspberry. With typical Italian flare and style, the bottle bespeaks elegance with a genuine Swarovski crystal embedded in the front of the bottle. Perfect served chilled on a hot summer afternoon. One of the most popular wines from Abruzzo, Italy (the home province of the Schullo family, not that we are biased or anything whatsoever!). Abruzzo is a stunning mountainous region (famous for its ski slopes) on the eastern coast of Italy, with winemaking traditions dating back to about 600 B.C.E.! Best served between 4-5°C (39-41°F), pairs really well with fish, pasta, salads, Asian and Mediterranean dishes.

Titulus is the perfect standard bearer of a Verdicchio Dei Castelli, by famed winemaker Fazi Battaglia. The grapes are harvested by hand and soft pressed ready for fermentation. Beautifully presented in a classic Italian amphora bottle, it speaks to the thousand-year-old traditions of Mediterranean winemaking.

The wine sparkles with a sunny bright color. It is fresh, with fruity and floral notes. The mouth is rich, tangy and mineral, and it has a pleasant, almondy finish.

Pairs wonderfully with appetizers, risottos, poultry, seafood or any dishes prepared with cream sauces and mushrooms.

Best served at 8 - 11°C (46 - 51°F)
