FARVR
Region: Italy, Veneto
Vineyard location: Hillsides in San Pietro in Cariano and Sant’Ambrogio di Valpolicella at an altitude of 300 meters
Grape variety: 50% Corvina, 15% Corvinone, 20% Rondinella, 5% Molinara & 10% Oseleta
Background: Fine red wine from the classic Valpolicella region. Described as “Superiore” for its higher alcohol level and at least one year’s refining in oak casks, giving both body and structure and making this wine display great harmony and a sense of roundness.
Great red wine made with respect for tradition and terroir. The first fermentation takes place in autumn, after the harvest. In early spring it is re-fermented on the Amarone pomace still soaked in wine, from which it extracts more structure, personality, aromas and colour.
Tasting notes
Food pairing: Pairs well with savoury pasta dishes such as a porcini risotto or flavourful stuffed or baked pasta. Perfect with grilled meat, roasts and aged cheeses
FARL
Region: Italy, Veneto
Background: Young and fragrant white wine, produced in the small area between the provinces of Verona and Brescia from which it takes the name, Lugana owes its full body, freshness, and abundance of aromas to the extremely favourable climate and the naturally alluvial and sandy soil.
Tasting notes: Straw yellow with greenish shades. Elegant and fresh, notes of wildflowers and apricot. Delicate, smooth and very harmonic.
FARV

Grape variety: Traditional blend of Corvina, Rondinella & Molinara
Background: Fine red wine from the classic Valpolicella region. Farina was established in the early 1900s, with the company now managed by the third generation of the family, cousins Claudio and Elena. While they nod to the past, they are also looking to the future, with strong efforts to keep their vines in optimum health through organic and sustainable methods.
Winemaking process: Grapes are sourced from Farina's own 10ha of vineyards, as well as from local growers, with the stipulation that the fruit they buy must come from plots which have been farmed sustainably, using natural pest-management practices and organic fertilisers.
Tasting notes: This is a medium bodied, elegant red, with silky tannins and wild cherry and bramble fruit flavours and a hint of almond on the finish. Expect aromas and flavours of red cherry, plum and other red berries, as well as herbs and blossom.

FARRVC
Region: Italy, Veneto
Background: This wine has a great personality, it is obtained by selecting only a particular kind of grapes from the Valpolicella Classica region: the “recie”, the “wings” of the clusters, the sweetest and straggliest part.
Winemaking process: The vinification takes place in two steps at the end of January, after the grapes’ drying in traditional fruit drying sheds. The wine is left to rest in the bottle for almost one year in order to reach its peak in terms of quality while being still young.
Tasting notes: Deep ruby red colour. Floral and fruity scents, it reminds of violet and wild rose, becoming a wonderful mix of raspberry, redcurrant and sour cherry jam. Velvety, pleasant taste, smooth, sweet but never cloying.

GENTFP
Region: Italy, Veneto
Background: The most famous Italian bubbles in the half-sparkling version: the modern way of tasting Prosecco DOC. The second fermentation in pressurized steel tanks and the pressure that does not exceed the three atmospheres make it ideal to be enjoyed by the glass or the whole meal. This “frizzante” wine combines the traditional production of Tenuta Sant'Anna with the innovative closure: the screw cap.
Tasting notes: Straw-yellow colour of medium intensity. In the glass it forms a crown of dense, particulate froth, replenished with small long-lasting bubbles. The bouquet produces aromas of acacia, peach and pear flowers. Easy and pleasant to taste, initially fresh and soft to the palate, the flavour gives way to fruity notes and an agreeable element of sapidity.
GENTSG
Region: Italy, Veneto
Background: The number one Prosecco of the Tenuta St. Anna impossible to imitate. This sparkling wine is the pride of the Azienda and practically needs no introduction: year after year it confirms its supremacy with that ever-popular pleasant taste.
Winemaking process: The harvested grapes are de-stemmed and crushed gently. The must obtained is transferred into steel vats where the process of transformation into wine takes place at controlled temperatures. Once the wine has been obtained, the process for transformation into sparkling wine begins: a selection of yeasts is put in the tanks which over a period of four months will transform the wine into a refined sparkling wine.
Tasting notes: Straw yellow with light hints of green. On serving, it forms a dense and refined foam, which persists at length, feeding on tiny bubbles. Hints of peach, pear and acacia blossom. Easy and pleasant to drink, initially fresh and soft on the palate; it gives way to flavours of fruit and a pleasantly tangy aftertaste.
Food pairing: Very versatile, it is delightful as an aperitif, with hors d’oeuvres and appetisers in general, as well as with light charcuterie and cheeses.
NUAP
Region: Italy, Veneto
Background: Nua is a premium Italian producer of the world-famous Prosecco sparkling.
Tasting notes: Prosecco is the sparkling wine for those who think they don’t like sparkling wine! Racy, sparky, funky frolics, from your head down to your...toes. Expect savoury lemon sherbet and pear drop fruit and ultra-refreshment!
This pale-yellow sparkling is elegant and crisp, with a fruity bouquet of citrus and tropical fruits. The palate is mellow and textured, and shows an amazing harmony between all aspects of the wine. Elegant with a fruity bouquet, a mellow and creamy mouth feel, delicate bubbles, subtle white peach, apple puree and brioche flavours and distinctively crisp finish.
Food pairing: Softer and more rounded than other Sparklers, it has an easy palate that endears it to the modern consumer. It mixes fabulously well with fruits such as peaches as in the famous Bellini cocktail. Simply delicious!

LDPG
Region: Italy, Veneto
Grape variety: Pinot Grigio
Background: La Delizia is what the Italians call with such a beautiful word 'Cantina', a cooperative of grape producers, who have joined forces. Together they can make much better products, in a much more efficient way than alone. Moreover, the wines are much better to market under one label.
The cantina owes its name to the municipality where it is located: Casarsa La Delizia, in the province of Pordenone. A small municipality, with no more than about 8000 inhabitants, but all the more vineyards. These are located at an altitude of 44 meters above sea level. The designation "Delizia" in the name of the municipality of Casarsa della Delizia refers to the fertility of this region, beautiful arable land between Casarsa and the Tagliamento River.
The Pinot Grigio, Italian for Pinot Gris, feels very much at home in this part of Italy. That is the magical combination of the special terroir and the cool climate of this region. La Delizia wants to make a Pinot Grigio in the Italian style, so not too heavy, but above all stimulating and with a lot of fruit and freshness. The grapes should therefore not be picked too late, when they still have good acidity and a perfect balance. This is followed by a cold temperature fermentation on stainless steel, with which the wine perfectly retains its freshness and juice. This results in a deliciously light-footed white wine, in the tradition of the juicy and fresh Italian Pinot Grigio. Delicious.
Tasting notes: Pleasant open fragrance, flowers, acacia, pear and apple, hint of citrus, invigorating. Light and juicy, hint of kiwi and some peach, open and light-footed, soft and juicy, a touch of mint, some pleasant acidity after.
