Calipte Toscana IGT Rosato is an elegant expression of modern Tuscan winemaking, bottled in a striking vessel adorned with floral motifs printed directly onto the glass—a delicate nod to the blossoms of the Maremma. The design reflects the wine’s lightness and grace, and its aesthetic appeal makes it a standout on both retail shelves and wine tables. Named after the hummingbird (“Calipte” in Greek), the bottle’s artistry gives a visual whisper of the wine’s delicate poetic soul.

Inside, Calipte is crafted from 100% Sangiovese grapes and captures the fresh, contemporary spirit of the Maremma. It glows with a pale coral-pink hue, and offers a fragrant bouquet of red berries, citrus, and floral hints—a sensory harmony that is both invigorating and balanced. On the palate, it presents crisp freshness, savoury depth, and a persistent, refined finish, wonderfully suited for seafood, white meats, or enjoying simply as an aperitivo.

🇮🇹 Company Spotlight: – Tradition from the Heart of Molise

Nestled in the rolling hills of Cercemaggiore, a picturesque village in the Italian region of Molise, Spina Salumi stands as a proud example of family tradition, sustainability, and artisanal excellence.

A true family-run operation with over 80 years of experience, Spina Salumi produces authentic Italian charcuterie rooted in time-honored methods. From start to finish, the Spina family oversees every step — from raising their own pigs in wooded, stress-free pastures to slow-curing each product with care and precision.

“On our farms, we are surrounded by oak forests 🌳 We have always utilised its fruit, the acorn, as food, and it is thanks to this that our pigs produce such high-quality meat.”

This deep connection to the land, combined with respect for tradition, results in products that are not only delicious but truly reflective of the local terroir. From their renowned guanciale to hand-crafted prosciutto stagionato, every cut is a testament to craftsmanship, sustainability, and family pride.
