Decanter: awards for Cabert.

Decanter awarded Cabert’s Sauvignon 2025 with a Silver Medal.

THE STORY
Founded in 1960, in Bertiolo, Italy, CABERT has been synonymous with authenticity and the tradition of wine for over sixty years.

THE TERRITORY
The wines of the north-east of Italy are frontier wines, with a special identity having its roots in the commercial spirit of Venetian merchants, and in the challenges that winemakers have always had to face in this area, quickly learning to innovate, adapt and improve.

THEIR PHILOSOPHY: LOVE, LAND, TRADITION & INNOVATION
CABERT wines are born from the love we have for our land, and from a long wine-making tradition integrated with cutting-edge technological innovations. The result is extreme attention to detail throughout all stages of production, and a deep respect for the terroir, our vines, and all their peculiar qualities. The fruit of passion, commitment and love, we dedicate our wines to all those who already appreciate them, and to all those who will soon discover them.

Simple, Clear and Pure:

 

 

this is NUDO 

Agricola del Nudo gold at Millésime Bio Challenge for Vermentino Maremma Toscana 2020

The purpose

Nudo symbolizes “unvarnished, straightforward and purity”.
This is how the wine tastes: simple, clear and pure.
Sustainability is a top priority. Cultivated exclusively according to the rules of organic farming. The wines are fermented spontaneously. At Agricola del Nudo’s they only use sulphites in very small quantities and they only choose for the local grape varieties Vermentino, and Sangiovese but also Syrah.

The history

NUDO was born from the friendship between Stefano Bambagioni, a farmer from Maremma and Roland Krebser, a Swiss oenologist and is a project of the heart.
Stefano grew grapes using organic methods on his two-hectare vineyard. As an oenologist at a winery, Roland bought these grapes from him. That’s how they met in 2009 and that’s how the story began.
At first they only produced a small batch for families and friends. In the year 2012 the first major production of 3000 bottles for public sale started. Thanks to the wonderful cooperation and help of many friends, production was increased to a total of 24,000 bottles. Nevertheless, they have remained true to their philosophy.
Agricola del Nudo joined the VignaEnaoli family in 2023.

 

Excellent grapes from Maremma Tuscany

The wines are consistently grown and matured using organic methods. Great importance to collecting the entire harvest carefully by hand in small cassettes. The selection of the grapes takes place directly in the vineyard.

Cantina Paltrinieri, a  century-long story

For a century, the farm has been much more than a business: it’s family, memory, and roots that continue to live on through time.

Founded in 1926 by Achille Paltrinieri just north of Modena, the winery is now in its fourth generation, passionately championing traditional and unconventional expressions of this celebrated Emilia-Romagna terroir.

Key points:

  • The 1926 Origins: Achille Paltrinieri built the original house and winery, dedicating his life to the land between the Secchia and Panaro rivers.
  • The Sorbara Specialists: The Paltrinieri family owns and farms approximately 15 to 17 hectares of vineyards, particularly in the historic Il Cristo zone.
  • The Modern Era: Since 1998, current winemaker Alberto Paltrinieri  (Achille’s grandson) and his wife, Barbara Galassi, have helmed the estate. Alberto was a pioneer in producing the first mono-varietal Lambrusco di Sorbara, redefining the wine’s artisanal potential.

Santadi: Identity Essence

Santadi: Identity essence. Discover their emblems that characterize their vineyards and wines.

SYMBOL: A symbol of unity, this cross echoes the shape of a vineyard and, in its deeper meaning, tells the story of cooperation among our growers.

It is the emblem of our essence: people who choose to walk together, sharing work, responsibility, and vision.

SAND: The sand tells of resilience and purity: ancient, fine, shaped by the sea and the wind, it cradles the roots like a silent womb.

It is on this bright, luminous canvas that the vine sinks freely, own-rooted, finding strength and authenticity

SEA: The sea is a silent and constant presence: it moderates the climate, amplifies the light, and sends winds that caress the vineyards and safeguard their balance.

In the glass, all of this translates into clear and vibrant Mediterranean aromas, telling the story of the island with authenticity and depth

It is the emblem of our essence: people who choose to walk together, sharing work, responsibility, and vision.

SUN: The sun patiently guides the ripening of the grapes, envelops the land in warmth, and preserves its balance. It is a presence that is felt even before it is seen.

In the glass, it becomes living light: energy that unites, warmth that welcomes, pleasure fulfilled in sharing.

TIME: In one of Europe’s oldest lands, time does not pass: it accumulates. It marks the gestures of those who work the vineyards, accompanies the wine in the silence of the barrels, and weaves together the traditions of a people.

Here, the land speaks, exudes memory, and preserves millennia-old stories that find their voice and continuity in the wine.

HERON: A symbol of balance and connection, the heron embodies that invisible bond linking sky and soil, light and roots, the same harmony that lives in our wines.

It is a discreet yet constant presence, like the breath that caresses the vineyards and shapes their character

Cantina di Santadi is located in the Sulcis area, in South-western Sardinia, just a few miles as the crow flies from the dazzling beaches and white sand dunes of Porto Pino. It was established in 1960, and after some start-up difficulties, a new management gave it a decisive boost, driven by strong determination which fanned enthusiasm and passion.
The winery embarked on an ambitious programme, adopting new strategies and clear targets, streamlining its operations and issuing coherent guidelines to its member grape growers.

About the logo:

Cantina di Santadi’s logo is the Mistral that shapes the vine and our thoughts; it is the sea spray that rises from the ocean to the sandy hills; it is the profile of the dunes of Porto Pino watching over the vineyards.

The logo communicates who Cantina di  Santadi is from the very first moment: guardians of a slow time, rooted in Sulcis and projected towards a Mediterranean vision that needs no artifice.
