  • 2022 Verdeca ‘Talo’, San Marzano White Wine

    2022 Verdeca ‘Talo’, San Marzano

    £1275

    Verdeca is a relatively rare white-wine grape variety from southern Italy and is known for being excellent with seafood dishes.  This 2022 Verdeca ‘Talo’ from San Marzano is quite delightful, fresh and unoaked. It has rich aromatics of white flowers, crisp green apple and a hint of honey. Full-flavoured, with a creamy texture and a thirst-quenching finish.

  • 2022 Malvasia Nera ‘Talo’, San Marzano Red Wine

    2022 Malvasia Nera ‘Talo’, San Marzano

    £1750

    This is a wonderfully rich wine that has an intense and complex bouquet rose petals, blueberries and wild herbs.  A full-bodied wine with delicious flavours of Morello cherry and vanilla notes through to a smooth finish.  Puglian reds can sometimes reflect the heat of this part of Italy a little too much – this wine is strikingly different, fresh and juicy with almost no tannin.

  • 2022 Primitivo di Manduria ‘Talo’, San Marzano Red Wine

    2022 Primitivo di Manduria ‘Talo’, San Marzano

    £1750

    A rich and opulent wine with vibrant flavours of ripe cherries and plums combined with subtle overtones of cocoa and vanilla. Velvety and textured with brambly fruits on the palate and a warm finish, this packs a punch of flavour.

    Talo is the surname of one of the winegrowers that have supplied San Marzano for many years. San Marzano recognises the contribution their producers make, with whom they work closely to achieve the best from their land. The outstanding quality of these wines could not be created without them. The vineyard is located in Salento, Puglia at approximately 100 metres above sea level. The soft soil layer is clayey and quite thin, with a good presence of rocks, making it an ideal growing location for vines.

  • 2021 ‘Edda Lei Bianco’, San Marzano White Wine

    2021 ‘Edda Lei Bianco’, San Marzano

    £2100

    Edda is an intoxicating blend of Chardonnay, Fiano and Moscatello delivering aromas of sun-ripened peach and mellow floral aromatics, which are interwoven with delicate hints of vanilla. Fresh and beautifully balanced, the rounded palate is elegantly styled and has a touch of minerality on the finish.  It’s one of the best white wines we have tried from Puglia.

    The fusion of time-honoured tradition, passion and contemporary techniques, enables San Marzano to produce wines with distinctive varietal and regional characteristics while reflecting the local terroir.  The vineyard is located at approximately 100 metres above sea level and benefits from great diurnal temperature variation.
    Fermentation took place in French oak barrels. Following this, the wine was matured on its fine lees in barriques for a period of four months, with weekly lees stirring which imparted texture and complexity.

  • NV ‘Collezione Cinquanta’, San Marzano Red Wine

    NV ‘Collezione Cinquanta’, San Marzano

    £2595

    A generous blend of equal parts Negroamaro & Primitivo, the powerhouse grapes of Puglia.  This beauty is a fleshy wine with dark berried fruit layered with chocolate and hints of spice. Smooth with great purity of fruit through to a long sustained finish. Quite delicious.

    The vineyard is located in Salento, Puglia, where the vines are grown at an altitude of approximately 100 metres above sea level. The temperatures are relatively high over the summer, which encourages the berries to ripen evenly. The soil is predominantly clay with some rocks, which help drainage. The vines are old, gnarly bush vines that are over 50 years old and are planted at a density of 4,500 vines per hectare. The Primitivo is grown in the highly reputed area of Manduria, locally regarded as the best in Puglia. The harvest takes place in September when the grapes are slightly overripe.
