La Caplana – Gavi di Gavi DOCG
Gavi is known for its straw yellow color as well as fine intensity and good consistency. Its aroma is intense with the scent of white flower and an aromatic trace of minerals. The taste is pleasantly fresh, savory and balanced with a fine structure and an aftertaste of almonds.
Gavi is usually drank as a “young” new wine and maintains the special characteristics in the bottle over time. It goes well with appetizers as well as white meat and fish dishes. Italians are fond of drinking Gavi as an aperitif too.

Cascina Boschetti Gomba – Dolcetto d’Alba DOC
Deep purple color with fresh aromatics of cherry and flowers. The structure has a lightness and brightness to it so not overly complex. Dolcetto translates to "little sweet one," and though the wines produced are typically not sweet in terms of residual sugar, they do possess delightfully fruity flavors of red cherry and blueberry, with an almond-like bitterness at the end and occasional hints of chocolate.

Cascina Boschetti Gomba – Barolo Sori DOCG
Nebbiolo is the star variety of northern Italy's Piedmont region. Nebbiolo is an elegant variety with mouthwatering acidity and a compelling perfume of rose petals, violets, fresh tar, licorice, clay, and dried cherries. Light in color and body, Nebbiolo is a more powerful win than one might expect. Its firm tannins typically need time to mellow. With age, it develops a velvety texture and a stunningly complex bouquet.

Villabella Bardolino Chiaretto
Produced with Corvina and Rondinella grapes, from vineyards grown in the hinterland of Lake Garda. Traditionally Chiaretto is obtained by cold maceration of the must on the skins for a single night. Today, part of the must makes just a few hours maceration, in order to obtain a very light color. This wine should preferably be drunk within a year of the vintage. Has a pale pink colour. On the nose, citrus and floral notes accompanied by herbal hints reminiscent of sage. Good acidity and sapidity combined with a youthful fruitiness.
