Az Agr PIERO COSTANTINI
Az Agr Piero Costantini was introduced to us when we first visited Vinitaly and it is a great pleasure to be able to introduce their two CRU' Frascatis to the UK for they have to be among the top Frascatis produced.
| 181 | £8.80 | FRASCATI CRU' VIGNA
dei PRETI DOC 1997 This is a Frascati which represents extremely good value for top quality wine. The wine has good structure, fruit with the intensity of a truly remarkable wine. |
| 232 | t.b.a. | FRASCATI CRU'
VIGNETO FILONARDI DOC 1997 Throw away every conception you have about Frascati for this has to be among the best produced. It is a magnificent wine with loads of fruit, intense flavours, incredible length on the palate and fantastic structure. A wine that has to be tasted and then cherished. |
CANTINA CERQUETTA
This is a break with our tradition of bringing wines from smaller vineyards as Cantine Cerquetta is a large Frascati producer and also a very good one.
| 236 | £4.95 | FRASCATI SUPERIORE
DOC 1996/7 A very good value Frascati with good fruit and a very slight fizz on the tongue. |
TENUTA LE QUINTE di FRANCESCO PAPI
| 494 | £7.00 £5.55 |
MONTECOMPATRI
SUPERIORE VIRTU' ROMANE DOC 1994 This is a fruity, deep wine with the flavour of ripe grapes. |
