Region: Italy, Sambuca Di Sicilia (AG) Sicily
Grape variety: Pinot Grigio
Background: The grapes come from one solitary vineyard in the mountainous Molise. It's a thrilling landscape of high, empty spaces and little lost towns. Pinot Grigio is rarely grown here but winemakers Valentino, Flippo and Camillo thought the potential was huge. So they found their spot, grew the vines and proved their point!
Tasting notes: Bursting with stone fruits like peach and nectarine.
Dazzling with enticing fruit and fresh herb aromas, a scintillating mouthful of rich peach and grapefruit is evident on the palate. Lemon, lime and a mineral crispness also persist with a gentle spicy finish.

Lunaria Bucefalo (organic red)
Region: Italy, Abruzzo
Grape Variety: Montepulciano
Background: Biodynamic wine is often considered superior to conventional wines, with better flavour, superior aroma, and more pleasant texture. Growers find that the biodynamic method yields a better growth balance, and ideal sugar content for the wine. The mountainous Abruzzo region of central Italy is situated halfway up the 'boot' of Italy. Cantina Orsogna is an award-winning Abruzzo winery specialising in native grapes of the region such as Perricone, Cococciola and Pecorino. Orsogna are committed to the biodynamic principles by which they make their wine and have many certified Demeter biodynamic wines. This Bucefalo is certified 'Demeter' biodynamic, this means that the vineyard has been subjected only to completely natural processes.
Tasting Notes: Broad and intense, the nose is dominated by fruity notes with opening of black cherries and blueberries, followed by spicy scents of tertiary origin aromas (resulting from aging) with notes of cocoa, coffee, tobacco and leather. It is really amazing tasting this red wine made from dried grapes, the astringency of tannins and the freshness of acidity are well matched with the natural sweetness of the wine. Excellent overall harmony, velvety, smooth and with a long persistence.
Award: Awarded as “Best Italian Winery” 2013, Orsogna Winery (located in Abruzzo region) is one of the largest producer of biological and biodynamic wine (Certified by Demeter).
