Serve the Baron Philipe de Rothschild Agneau Rosé as an aperitif or as the perfect accompaniment to a convivial barbecue with family and friends.
Exclusive wine enjoyment with power and depth: Why is this complex and full-bodied red wine called "The Phantom"? The name can certainly be traced back to its exclusivity: only one barrique barrel of this vintage was vinified. So you should be all the more pleased to be able to taste this single-varietal Grenache from the Swartland. Deep purple in the glass, the red wine exudes a brilliant bouquet of blackberries and plums as well as notes of cherry, currant and sweet liquorice. Developing for hours, it delights with its variety of aromas and its depth. The elegant combination of dominant fruit and refreshing acidity makes "The Phantom" a lively red wine with good balance and an invigorating drinking flow. With its subtle vanilla and cocoa aromas, which developed during the 16-month maturation period in oak, this wine enchants right up to the finish, the complexity of which lingers for a long time. The bottom line is: This Phantom is a South African rarity and a top recommendation!

A Vino Nobile as you wish With the Tenuta Calimaia Vino Nobile di Montepulciano you can enjoy a masterful red wine full of history. The Frescobaldi family once provided the mayor of Montepulciano in the 14th century. With this wine they celebrate their return to the prestigious wine region. It is perfect for cozy evenings for two or as an accompaniment to a sumptuous meal with friends and family. The vineyards of the Tenuta Calimaia are located in a historic growing area that is considered one of the best for the Vino Nobile di Montepulciano.

After the selective harvest, the grapes are gently pressed and vinified in stainless steel at a controlled temperature. The cuvée, made from 90 percent Sangiovese and 10 percent complementary grape varieties, then matures for 24 months in 50-hectoliter oak barrels. The great effort pays off. The bouquet alone invites you to indulge in notes of red fruits, herbs such as sage and lavender, and finely spicy aromas of cocoa. In the mouth, this Vino Nobile di Montepulciano is extremely powerful with a beautiful freshness and elegant acidity. Fruity aromas of raspberries and currants characterize the taste, which is structured by silky tannins. The finish is long and precise. - That's exactly how we want a Vino Nobile. Bravissimo!
Super Superiore! When you hear the name "Asti", do you first think of the famous Asti Spumante, the sweet, white sparkling wine from Piedmont? Then you might be surprised to learn that the vineyards around the city of Asti are largely planted with red wine. The Barbera grape variety clearly sets the tone here. And not just in terms of area. Since 2008, Barbera d'Asti has had the status of a DOCG region, the highest Italian level for quality wines. But that's not all: A Barbera d'Asti Superiore, such as the one produced by the Villa Pani winery, goes one step further in terms of quality... "A Barbera d'Asti requires four months of maturation, whereas a Barbera d'Asti Superiore matures for at least 14 months," explains Stella Grasso. The young winemaker heads up red wine production at Villa Pani and, as a true Piedmontese, is very familiar with the region's peculiarities. "To give the wine more depth and flavor, our Superiore is stored for the full 14 months in small 225-liter barriques. The typical cherry fruit of the Barbera also comes out even better," Stella is sure. In fact, her ruby-red Superiore with its powerful fruit aromas invites you to enjoy it straight away. Piedmont cherry, plum, violet, basil and fine spices characterize the scent. On the palate you feel the stately body and great harmony. Juicy, finely structured and long-lasting, this Barbera d'Asti Superiore is one thing above all: super! Try its excellent quality on its own, with pasta, mature cheese or spicy dishes from the grill.
The best of tradition and modernity When we talk about highly individual wines with strong character, we quickly end up with Barolo. The combination of light red color, fine fruit, strong structure and enormous storage capacity is simply unique in the world of wine. It is no wonder that the impressive wines from the small municipality of the same name in Piedmont enjoy great fame. The Villa Pani Barolo from winemaker Stella Grasso provides you with a modern taste of its highest class. Stella has known the vineyards of Piedmont since she was a child. She comes from Canelli, which is about 30 kilometers east of the Barolo region. She studied oenology in Alba before heading out into the wide world. In Australia, Stella then became acquainted with a very modern, international red wine style, which she has been incorporating into the Villa Pani winery since she returned home. She matures the Barolo in barriques for an extra long time. "Unlike the large barrels, the small barrique gives the wine more of its soft wood aromas. This makes the taste rounder and the sometimes somewhat prickly Barolo accessible a little earlier," explains Stella. The Barolo from Villa Pani is stored in barriques for an impressive 38 months before it is bottled.The wine appears very classic in the glass: a light garnet red sparkles at you. The typical cherry fruit and fine spice notes are immediately present on the nose, accompanied by delicate caramel aromas. On the tongue, the Barolo then positions itself with a powerful body and juicy tartaric acid. In fact, the structure is very polished, despite the present tannins. The long finish reveals fine vanilla notes.The young Stella, that much is clear after tasting, combines tradition and modernity in the best way in this Barolo. See for yourself and try this wonderful red wine both on its own and with strong dishes with truffles and mature cheese.
Homage to Portofino "I found my love in Portofino" - that's how the French music icon Dalida sang the song by the duo Chiosso-Buscaglione at the end of the 1950s about the picturesque port town near Genoa. And in doing so, she made it famous almost overnight. Since then, not only tourists but also world stars have been flocking to the small town. In the past, it was Frank Sinatra and Brigitte Bardot; today it is the summer residence of such famous families as Armani and Prada. Their holiday homes may not be accessible to the average tourist. But there is something that is shared locally. Namely, the high-quality wines, whose grapes grow on the lush slopes high above the dreamy harbor. This is exactly where the grapes for the great Portofino homage by Cantina Volpi come from. The "Rosafino" Rosato is made from 100 percent Grenache. A grape variety that is rarely found in Liguria, but which nevertheless brings the full Italian feeling of life into the glass: rich fruit (blackberry, black currant and black cherry) is paired with an enchanting freshness and a magnificent liveliness. Every sip is an enjoyable short vacation!
Even prettier in pink Norma Ratcliffe, who founded Warwick Estate in South Africa with her husband more than four decades ago, is known as the First Lady of Cape winemaking. A unique monument was erected to her with the "The First Lady" wines. The Warwick Estate "The First Lady Rosé" is a particularly fruity, dry rosé wine that is truly worthy of a monument! On the nose, the noble wine smells of ripe strawberries and red currants. On the palate, it shows gentle notes of watermelon and raspberries, thus presenting the South African grape variety Pinotage in the best possible way. The grapes ripen under ideal conditions at the foot of the Simonsberg. Here the grapes are given their full strength and elegance and the absence of chemical fertilizers allows the vines to ripen healthy and strong. The fruity South African rosé wine goes particularly well with tartar and a dash of truffle oil and is also particularly good to enjoy on a warm summer evening! This wine goes well with various dishes.
Taste the terroir: Burgenland is known beyond Austria's borders for its first-class Blaufränkisch. The Wohlmuth Blaufränkisch Neckenmarkt once again provides the delicious reason for this. When producing this dry red wine, the Wohlmuth family places great value on honest manual work in the vineyard and careful processing in the cellar. The grapes come from historic vines on steep slopes that the winemaking family has been cultivating for generations. Mixed soils with proportions of clay, shell limestone and loess also give the Wohlmuth Blaufränkisch Neckenmarkt its very own characteristics. The wine is aged in used barrique barrels. In the glass, this Blaufränkisch appears in a dark ruby garnet with violet reflections. Dark, fully ripe berry aromas, among which the blackberry note typical of Blaufränkisch stands out in particular, pamper the nose. The aromas of juicy berries, combined with a fine spice, also dominate the palate. Velvety, well-rounded tannins caress the palate before a berry-accented finish completes the wine. The Wohlmuth Blaufränkisch Neckenmarkt is convincing across the board and makes connoisseurs' hearts beat faster. Be sure to try it with spicy game dishes.
