Description
With – finally – some good weather putting in a appearance, we thought it would be great idea to show some lighter drinking and fun wines for your summer.
We’ll include our new, dry Nero d’Avola sparkler, which is called ‘Neroluce’, as well as the famous pairing of wines (one red, one white) from Le Marche by wonderfully named Ciù Ciù.
Elsewhere, we’ll visit Cormòns in Friuli-Venezia Giulia. We’ve shown some of this great-value range a few times now, but not yet the Sauvignon Bianco (yes, that equals Sauvignon Blanc).
The Ciello Bianco Cattarrato from Sicilia is a perennial favourite – this wine is matured on the lees to give a creamy texture and rich flavour.
If we show an entry-level Sicilian Cattarrato (which is what Ciello is) we can’t not put in a similar red, can we? Our choice here is the Sensale Nero d’Avola. In fact, you can compare the still, red version to its sparkling white version, the Neroluce mentioned above.
