There's not a lot of Chardonnay planted in Tuscany, being a French transplant and all, but this example from one of our favourite Tuscan producers makes you wonder why they don't plant more. While this organic wine does not undergo malolactic fermentation, it's kept on the lees for an extended period for added complexity. Expect a lively and fresh white wine that can pair with goat cheese, arugula pizza, salads, or all on its own on a summer day when you need a lift!

Poggio al Sole lies in the very heart of Tuscany, in the bucolic countryside between Florence and Siena, between the towns of Tavarnelle Val di Pesa and Greve in Chianti. Documents in the archives of the ancient abbey of Badia a Passignano nearby testify to the claim that wine and wine oil were produced on this estate as early as the 12th century.
The grape growing and wine making tradition of the Davaz family goes back several years. With the loving care of the owners and nature’s blessing the great wines of Poggio al Sole are born. The modern equipment and a constant temperature in the wine cellars ensure that the most scrupulous care and attention can be given to the grapes during the journey of wine making.

Founded in 1866, Bests' is a family-owned and operated winery with some of the oldest and rarest vines in the world. One of the great things about this Great Western Chard is the fact that the grapes come from some of the earliest plantings of Chardonnay in Australia. They are grown on a deep gravel hill with a west-facing slope and what this means is low yields and great intense flavors. After pressing, the wine spent 8 months in 30% new French oak barriques and achieved 30% malolactic fermentation with plenty of lees contact to encourage a rich, complex and textured wine. Aromas of flint and stone fruit are followed by rich and complex notes on the palate yet it remains elegant and subtle.

A small-production organic wine from Abruzzo, Italy! Such a beautiful wine, loaded with pretty floral and peach notes, from a producer that's been making organic, biodynamic wines since 2003. (This particular one is aged in an amphora, a large, clay vessel — the way wine used to be made 2,000 years ago!) Serve chilled.

Fantastic value from the famous Poggio al Sole winery in Tuscany, Italy! Oh, you'll love this incredibly versatile red wine; it pairs with everything from pasta with tomato sauce to takeout pizza loaded with cheese and toppings. Sangiovese wines are made to go with food, and this one is no exception. It's a blend of 70% Sangiovese – 15% Merlot – 15% Cabernet Sauvignon, meaning is a youthful Super-Tuscan! Bright purple, good structure, juicy, silky soft tannins, caressing and elegant on the palate, subtle, lasting finish. Try with baked cannelloni, lasagne, you name it. Organic and vegan friendly!
