The tastiest Italian wines.
Italy’s rich wine culture houses some true treasures, each with a unique story and character. Discover the enchanting world of Barrique’s oak, the refreshing elegance of Gavi, the robust complexity of Barolo and the sparkling finesse of Franciacorta. Be taken on a journey of flavorful discovery through the heartwarming vineyards of Italy, where every bottle tells a story and every drop inspires a sigh of joy. Cheers to the beauty of Italian wine!

Barrique
This red wine comes from a small family winery. This wine is aged in small oak barrels, which often results in a wine with more complexity and depth of flavor.

Barolo
Our exclusive collection of Barolo from Piedmont matures to classical music and you taste red fruit, leather, oak, truffle and vanilla. Also called the “king of Italian wines.”

Gavi
A delicious white Gavi with citrus and peach notes. Very popular in Monaco. We melted when we saw the grandson selling the wines from Grandpa’s vineyard.

Franciacorta
Franciacorta is made using the traditional method, similar to Champagne, and are known for their elegance, complexity and ability to age well.
