Family owned since 1810, the Château Cap Léon Veyrin originates from the meeting of Château Cap Léon and the Veyrin estate. Cape comes from the word “head”. In fact, the vineyards of Cap Léon are located on the highest points of Listrac-Médoc, favoring natural drainage and ideal sunshine. Nathalie and Julien Meyre, are the 6th generation of the family running this property, perpetuate the tradition: predominance of Merlot, collage with egg white, aging of 12 months in barrels, manual harvesting for young parcels and for old vines, while bringing their dynamism to this renowned Cru Bourgeois du Médoc.
2023 is the second vintage of this new white wine made with black grapes: this is Julien’s challenge with plots 353 and 38. Why these plots? Inherited from his grandfather, overlooking the river and enjoying an exceptional climate, they combine all the qualities for the development of a great wine.
This wine is aged in stainless steel tanks and recalls the «Heavy metal» note of its winemaker. Freshness and vivacity in the mouth, resonate like a Hard Rock album. The notes of white peaches dance delicately in the finish like a romantic stroll. An atypical wine in its shape and fruit.

Buglioni produces distinctive wines and, alongside the traditional Valpolicella styles, offers more unconventional and pure expressions that reveal the authentic character of the territory and its native varieties.
When Mariano Buglioni created this wine, he had the perfect name in mind. But he soon discovered that the perfect name was already taken, and he would have to settle for another name. Despite this setback, Mariano recognized that the wine was perfect in every other regard, so he chose the name (I’M) Perfetto, for a perfect wine with an imperfect name. This wine is made from 100% estate fruit, which comes from Buglioni’s vineyards in Valpolicella Classico. The vineyards are located at an altitude of about 495ft and consist of dark, clayey soils with a high content of gravel. Grapes are manually harvested, with a portion pressed immediately after harvest, while a small percentage is left in the drying room.
Certified organic.

The award-winning Calrossie Vineyard wines from the Awatere Valley in Marlborough, New Zealand are celebrated for their exceptional quality and attention to detail. Calrossie Vineyard wines are the product of meticulous attention to detail and offer elegant expressions of vineyard and vintage.
100% Sauvignon Blanc, the fruit was sourced from the Rose Family Vineyard in Omaka Valley, Marlborough. Chosen for its similarity to the Calrossie Vineyard (in the Awatere Valley), the soils are also wind-blown loess over rich clay. The 2023 growing season in Marlborough was an easy one, perhaps only made challenging by rain at harvest time. That said, good luck and a well- timed pick had us harvest the fruit at perfect ripeness and in great condition.

The Cantina di Negrar wines are rooted in the wine-making tradition of Valpolicella and the Veronese wine-growing areas, with a modern reinterpretation to guarantee the best price/quality ratio.
The name of this famous wine is said to derive from Svevi or Suavi, one of the peoples who attempted the conquest of Italy in the Medieval era. According to some people, the name Soave is thought to have been given to the town by the divine poet Dante due to the deliciousness of its wine.

The Black Label is a multifaceted and harmonious Vermentino, of great persistence. Vinified and left to mature in steel tanks only, it is a white that enhances the most intimate characteristics of the most typical of the varieties of this beautiful area of Liguria.

The Vermentino Gray Label is a fresh and fruity white, aged in steel, which with its immediate pleasantness well represents the character of Vermentino Ligure, adapted perfectly to the Colli di Luni area, thanks to its preference for the Mediterranean climate, warm, ventilated and for the exposures close to the coast. The Gray Label of Cantina Lunae Bosoni is the most typical direct and immediate interpretation of Vermentino, lean and sapid, with a mouth center with a juicy fruit and a finish of beautiful freshness.
