The wines of Southern ItalySouthern Italy - White WinesWe feel this is one of the most exciting regions for great value wine at the moment. Stefano Girelli
Borgo SeleneStunning value for money made by the legendary winemaker Alberto Antonini at Villa Tonino.
Villa ToninoRipe and fruity dry whites from this lively co-operative on the Island of Sicily.
VesevuMario Ercolino is making some fine wines from this vineyard above the Bay of Naples. At 450 metres, the altitude ensures cooler climate complexity and with a low temperature fermentation the pureness of the fruit flavours shine through this charming and inviting white wine.
Southern Italy - Red WinesStefano Girelli
PromessaOrganic wine from Mark Shannon from vineyards above Martina Franca, a good site making lively, juicy wine of charm and freshness. A really unique flavour with ripe berry fruits, minty aroma and crisp finish.
Mark ShannonThe hand made Primitivo from Mark Shannon, a Californian winemaker who has settled in the area is a must and his elegantly perfumed Negroamaro a delight.
VesevoThis red is a super example of one of Italy's best kept secrets. The Aglianico grape gives dark, full bodied, but supple wines. A juicy red with warmth and spiciness.
Villa ToninoNero d’Avola, a Sicilian grape variety, its medium fruity character is most appealing.
Borgo SeleneGreat for alternative yet ultra modern house wine.
