In a country that specialises in Co-Operatives, La Guardiense in Southern Italy’s Campania region are standout producers. With a thousand-strong membership, they also have chief scientist and oenologist Riccardo Cotarella in their ranks. Recently described by Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate as “one of the most influential wine characters in the world”. While Italian whites can sometimes play 2nd fiddle to the regions reds, this wine gives you a reason to wonder why.

Tasting Notes
Dark garnet colour. Nose a touch muted with cherry, black fruit notes, earthy and tea bag notes. Heavier bodied. Tannins noted but less than expected. Dry though fruit flavours which give a nice rounded flavour profile. The palate leans towards cherry and plum, there's a distinct earthy element, and rounded with a touch of oak.
