BIANCO is an ode to our favourite whites for the season. Whether you prefer them lean, clean and mineral, textured and perfumed, or savoury and spiced, we hope to shine a light on the breadth of diversity to be found from these varieties.
LA FURTIVA
Vi de Vila 2025
Catalonia, Spain
A blend of Garnacha Blanca and Macabeo from vines young and old, spread out across small parcels in Vilalba dels Arcs. The grapes were pressed directly to old casks until the following spring, with a warmer year having produced a rich, perfumed wine that combines stone fruits, almonds and chalk to beautiful effect. This is very much suited to the joys of the Catalan table, from the mountains to the sea, and everything in between.

LA DISTESA
Gli Eremi 2024
Marche, Italy
Verdicchio from Corrado’s favourite parcel, a fifty year old, south-facing vineyard planted over clay and limestone in the heart of the San Michele cru. This was given a long, gentle press and spent eighteen months ageing in old casks. From a cool, classic vintage, this offers a trio of pithy citrus, bitter almond and brine, and displays the kind of balance and finesse that ranks it as one of the very best examples of the grape.

BARRACO
Zibibbo 2024
Sicily, Italy
From a young parcel of Zibibbo that grows on sandy soils. These grapes are fermented on skins for a day or so before being pressed off to concrete. The aromas here take you straight to the island, heady with lemon balm, herbs and spice. It’s whistle clean on the palate, with pithy citrus bringing serious refreshment. A truly energising wine that pairs so well with the region’s emblematic dish, pasta con le sarde.
