This is one of those wines that once tried always smitten; it is very, very different to the normal flavours that are associated with white wine, but it is absolutely stunning. A well-structured, full-bodied wine of yellowish-colour, tending towards the light-gold with age, with a slightly tannic and warmly aromatic flavour. Excellent with spicy foods. (12 x 75 cl)

San Valentino is a small winery and was purchased by its current owner, Robert Mascarin in 1990, with its first commercial vintage in 1997. In 2000 Fabrizio Moltard was hired as a wine consultant and the results are evident and this wine had been awarded the prestigious Tre Bicchieri or Three Glass award in the 2004 Gambera Rosso, the Italian wine bible. Hugely intense nose with big, ripe fruits and chocolaty oak with massive, opulent, black cherry fruit, toasty oak flavours. In the mouth, the massive structure with its complicated tannic structure is complimented by the dominating fruit. With a fantastic palate and great persistence this is a wine to be enjoyed.

For Umberto Cesari, stubborn by nature, producing good wine is a family tradition with deep roots in this area of Romagna. It is here that Umberto and his wife Giuliana chose to start their Company in 1965 by buying 20 Hectares of land in the hills between 200 and 380 Metres above sea level which extend from the Via Emilia towards the Apennine Mountains and the border of Tuscany. From then on, he has continually expanded and increased the quality of his wines and today the Company extends over an area of 100 hectares. Here it is divided into distinct vineyards of La Casetta, Parolino, Ca Grande and Laurento. The Sangiovese grapes behind this red wine come from areas especially suited for the production of this great red wine. The vineyards are located around the hills surrounding Castel San Pietro and Imola and great care is taken from the vine to the winery. Only the best clusters are made into wine, and fermentation takes place in conditioned tanks with temperature control. This is followed by 24 months' ageing, partly in Slavonia and Allier oak. This Sangiovese di Romagna Riserva has an intense ruby red colour with a touch of pomegranate, while the aroma is vinous, intense, with a touch of violet. The flavour is full, rich and dry, showing good tannic structure with a pleasing finish. Available in Magnum bottles. (12 x 75 cl)
