We have an enviable position within the Italian wine market. Our joint venture partnership with leading Piemontese co-operative Araldica Castelvero, ‘Adria Vini’, was established 15 years ago.
The aim is to create excellent quality wines at great value from across Italy, produced under the expertise of the Araldica winemaking team of Claudio Manera and Lella Burdese, with their son, Carlo Manera, now taking over the reins. Long-term relationships have been built with growers to give a range of competitive and characterful wines from regions including Veneto, Lombardia, Abruzzo, Puglia and Sicily.
Araldica itself has a comprehensive portfolio of authentic Piemontese wines, including Il Cascinone (Castel Boglione), Monferrato and Gavi, where it is recognised as one of the region’s leading producers.
Under the direction of veteran Italian Product Manager Tony Brown MW Boutinot’s Italian list is further bolstered by numerous relationships with top producers across Italy. From the exquisite Barolos and Barbarescos of family-owned estates Poderi Colla to the classic and exceptional Chiantis of Uggiano.
Last but certainly not least, Boutinot offers a wide portfolio of sparkling wines from Prosecco, to the increasingly popular Durello Spumante Brut of Veneto.
Not only can we offer a vast array of wines from all over Italy, along with a wealth of knowledge and expertise, but also convenience: our entire Italian portfolio is available to collect from one site in Castel Boglione.
