Originating in the town of Garibaldi, where the winery of the same name is based, this is an award-winning biodynamic and organic Brut Fizz. Produced under the Traditional (‘Champenoise’) Method, it is a light-medium bodied sparkler with green apple and tangerine citrus aromas evident on the nose, and hints of brioche and toast. Persistent bubbles and a fine mousse. Dry, elegant and very well presented this sparkler is ideal for parties or general entertaining. Low alcohol!

A zesty dry white wine wouldn’t always be our first choice for autumn drinking – but in view of the ongoing mild weather we’re happy recommend this delicious Itálico Riesling. Gentle melon, nectarine and citrus notes combine on a light-bodied palate, making this an ideal choice as a well chilled aperitif or to be served alongside canapés, salads, chicken dishes, seafood or fish. Bottled under screwcap. Nb. not related to German Rhine Riesling!
