An exceptional Lugana, crafted with the precision of a master jeweler. The Sùere cuvée reveals vibrant freshness, carried by delicate, perfectly integrated woody aromas. The fruit shines with remarkable purity, free of any heaviness, offering a distinctly gastronomic profile. A wine destined for the finest dining tables.

2. Sensi – Trattoria di Calappiano, Collegonzi Orange, IGT Toscana Bianco

An orange wine that leaves no one indifferent! Presented with passion by Massimo Sensi, the owner of Sensi, this blend of Trebbiano and Petit Manseng, vinified with extended skin contact, captivates with its fragrant bouquet and silky texture. Structured and full of flair, this Toscana Bianco reinvents tradition with boldness and elegance, while staying true to its Tuscan roots.

3. Fontanafredda – Vigna Gatinera, Blancs de Noirs 2016, Alta Langa

A true revelation! Showcased by Emilia Badellino, Fontanafredda’s Export Marketing Manager, this 2016 Blancs de Noirs, aged on lees for 84 months, impresses with its finesse and precision. Vibrant, crystal-clear, and remarkably youthful, it stands as a champion of elegance. Reserved for the most delicate dishes, this wine is undoubtedly the finest discovery of Vinitaly 2025.

4. Bava – Bass Tuba, Moscato d’Asti and Rosetta, Malvasia di Castelnuovo Don Bosco

Giulio Bava passionately reminds us of the richness of Piedmontese traditions. These Moscato wines, far from being mere trendy sippers, embody a century-old viticultural heritage. The Bass Tuba (Moscato d’Asti) and Rosetta (Malvasia) shine with authenticity and freshness. Wines that deserve to reclaim the spotlight, as Bava rightly emphasizes.

5. Canella – Bellini

Pure delight! Canella’s Bellini, the pioneer of ready-to-drink cocktails, charms with its precision and freshness. Crafted with 60% peaches grown by the Canella family, this cocktail captures the fruit’s essence with astonishing intensity. Perfect for a summer aperitif, it blends indulgence and sophistication, ready to win over nearly every palate.
