The best Italian wineries.
Piero Busso winery is a family-run business founded in the 1950s. They specialize in producing high-quality wines made with indigenous grape varieties using traditional winemaking methods. The winery's focus on sustainability and respect for the land is evident through their use of organic farming practices and minimal intervention in the vineyard. The result is a range of elegant and complex wines that reflect the unique terroir of their vineyards.
Cantina Enrico Serafino was founded in 1878 in Canale d’Alba, the main town in the heart of the Roero and a farming village rich in history, whose earliest records date back to the Middle Ages.
Founded by Enrico Serafino, businessman and landowner, the winery soon became one of the most important in Piedmont and among the first to sell the classic wines of the region throughout Italy and abroad.
In the 90s there was a complete modernization of the entire production system.
Since 2002, the entire production process is fully managed and monitored internally with cutting–edge facilities for grape pressing, winemaking and bottling.
Cantina Giuseppe Sedilesu is a family-run winery that produces high-quality wines with a deep respect for tradition and the environment. The winery focuses on using organic and sustainable farming methods to produce unique and authentic wines that speak to the terroir of the region. Their wines are known for their elegance, complexity, and balance, and they are made with passion and a deep commitment to quality.
The agricultural company of Giuseppe Gabbas covers an area of about 30 hectares, of which 20 are cultivated with vineyards and 5 with olive groves, at an altitude between 240m and 350m above sea level in a valley at the foot of Supramonte, in the heart of Sardinia, ten km from Nuoro, the capital of Barbagia.
Deep soils, of granitic origin and sufficiently permeable, retain some moisture even during periods of long drought.
The particular climate of the area, influenced by the temperate breezes that come from the sea, which is a little more than twenty miles far, and the proximity of mountains, provide a good temperature range, with positive effects on the color and the flavor profile of grapes.
This promotes an ecosystem that is ideal for vines, reducing, inter alia, pesticide treatments, performed only with traditional products.
The rationality of the plants and their small extension make possible to practice a viticulture of the highest quality, based on growing principles such as pruning and restrained crop yields aimed at obtaining the exaltation of the varietal characteristics of the grapes.
The most cultivated grape variety is Cannonau, to which other local varieties were added, selected among the most interesting of the rich Sardinian wine panorama.
This small and dynamic production reality in an area particularly suited to the cultivation of vines is always able to give its best, giving wine traits of elegance and territoriality that elsewhere are difficult to reach.
Wild and charming land of granite boulders shaped by the wind, of imposing corks with blood–red trunks, snow–white sands and crystal clear waters that fade from intense blue to emerald green, the Gallura land finds the roots of its name in the cock on the coat of arms of the Visconti, the first lords of Giudicato. The same cock that from 1956 identifies the wines of Cantina Gallura.
In Tempio Pausania, at the foot of Mount Limbara, the winery has collected in itself the age–old tradition of high Gallura winegrowers, already known in the eighteenth century beyond the borders of the Sardinia island for the production of a Moscato of excellence.
The rigorous selection systems, the modern processes of vinification and aging in barrels or in barriques, give rise to wines of high quality level and organoleptic characteristics in harmony with the evolution of tastes and needs of consumers.
Spearhead of the winery is Vermentino di Gallura, the only wine in Sardinia to be awarded, in 1996, with the prestigious Controlled Designation of Origin Guaranteed. The five types produced are: Canayli and Genesi (Superiore typology), Piras, Gemellae and Mavriana, all of excellent quality level, and are the result of the most advanced technologies. Wines that have won many prizes and awards at national and international level. (See the Awards section).
Besides the native cultivars, Vermentino, Cannonau, Moscato, Pascale, Caricagiola, the members of Cantina Gallura grow Nebbiolo, a grape variety, this latter, imported from Piedmont in 1700. From the vinification of these grapes you get three quality wines, Karana, Dolmen and the new Luna Nova, which soon captivated the attention of the public and the critics.
Planeta Dorilli is a prestigious winery known for its exceptional wines made from high-quality grapes. The winery boasts a state-of-the-art facility and a team of dedicated professionals who work tirelessly to produce world-class wines.

We cultivate only Etna grape varieties, in total respect of the territory and of the peculiarities of each vintage.
We limit our interventions to a minimum. The land commands, not us. We believe that only pandering and respecting the natural expression of our territory, we can have great wines. Great because honest.
In 2001 Luigi Moio and Laura Di Marzio founded the Quintodecimo company on a hill of Mirabella Eclano, in Campania, at a stone’s throw from Taurasi. The name stems from the toponym Quintum Decimum, which at the beginning of the eighth century, identified the house where the ancient Municipium of Eclanum was located.
Five hectares of dolomitic rocks – limestone, terraces at 500 meters, an exceptional sun exposure and the iodine action of the sea on the Amalfi Coast. To the charm of the territory of Furore, dominated by the geometry of the vineyards, the impressive wine cellar carved in the rocks must be added, where freshness and moisture influence in the best way the natural aging in oak barrels.
Cantine Marisa Cuomo is holder of the Gran Furor Divina Costiera brand that dates back to 1942, when it began to be used to market the wines obtained from the terraces of the Furore Coast.
The company produces, beyond wines of superb quality such as the COSTA D’AMALFI – FURORE WHITE and RED, and COSTA D’AMALFI RIVELLO RED and WHITE, the precious COSTA D’AMALFI – FURORE FIORDUVA, awarded five clusters on the “DUEMILAVINI” guide to the wines of Italy, published by AIS (Italian Sommelier Association) and the FURORE RED RESERVE.

They follow traditional winemaking techniques while incorporating modern technologies to ensure the best possible product.

Azienda Agricola Cataldi Madonna is located in the valley of Ofena (AQ) at 520 meters above sea level. It works on a wine–growing area of 26.5 hectares of property, in addition to seven hectares of olive trees and some small plots of arable land.
The ground of limestone and clay, basically more melted in the plain and more rich in structure in the high parts on the mountain. The total annual production is of 230,000 bottles.
The wine of the reference is Ton, a Montepulciano d’Abruzzo produced from a selection of grapes coming exclusively from the Cona vineyard. It spends 12 months in French barriques and another 24 months in bottle before being issued on the market. About 7000 bottles per year are produced. It is a modern wine, faithful to its territory.
From grapes of the same vineyard Pi delle Vigne, Montepulciano Cerasuolo, is obtained. It is produced with one of the traditional techniques of Abruzzo, the “svacata”, which consists in the white vinification of part of the grapes (85%), to which the remaining part, vinified with a normal maceration on the skins but half fermented, is added (up to 12 Babo). At that point fermentation is brought to an end. The secret to the success of this wine–making technique lies in the times of blending.
Oasi Degli Angeli Di Rossi Eleonora is a winery that produces high-quality wines using traditional winemaking techniques. The winery's focus is on producing wines that showcase the unique characteristics of the grapes and the terroir.

Boris Skerk, together with his family, in the ancient understanding between man and nature, devote himself, with a deep sense of belonging to the territory, to the cultivation of high–density vines and, taking the cue from the ancient viticulture techniques, focus on the cultivation of those native varieties, such as Terrano, Vitovska and Malvasia, which through the centuries have proven to be able to ensure the best results in that land and climate.
A couple of years ago a new winery opened, entirely underground, which ensures the highest functionality – vineyards do the rest of the job. Our great advantage consists of the opportunity to draw on three different terroirs, to say, Rosazzo, Buttrio and Rocca Bernarda.
The Vinifications are always separated, initially, also to make statistical surveys useful for a more specific consciousness to each area and grape variety. Only after, we perform blendings on the basis of the various types. Rosazzo has a warmer microclimate, almost Mediterranean, so much so that even olive trees grow here. The sea, rather close, causes undoubted beneficial effects, at the expense, perhaps, of the temperature range, not too pronounced. In Rosazzo, in effect, we grow most of our red grapes and wines are large, powerful, energetic.
Among the white grapes, Tocai Friulano finds its space, taking from the color of the hills of Rosazzo the originality of character that sets it apart. We focus on red wines bluntly, both to continue down the path already started with Ronco dei Roseti (first red wine from Friuli awarded with 3 Glasses by the Gambero Rosso Guide in the year 1988), and to experiment with the possibilities given by native vines such as Pignolo and Refosco. In fact, one of our goals, is exactly to employ native grapes to produce wines of real personality, of not easy uniformity.
It should be considered that the 55 hectares of vines we own, including properties and rentals, as much as 40% is occupied by varieties of red grapes, definitely a percentage above the regional average. This does not mean, of course, to leave out white wines, that are an indispensable basis for our justified ambitions. In fact, even about white wines, our philosophy follows a consistent path and in line with the choices operated in the “red sector”. Although these varieties are of international footprint, even well rooted in the Friuli area, such as Sauvignon and Pinot Grigio, the greatest hopes and attention focus on native grapes.
