June 22: Pop the Cork on our New Vintage of Auguri!


We are happy to announce that the latest vintage of our dry sparkling wine Auguri is ready to release.  Made in the classic “zero dosage” or zero residual sugar style and inspired by Prosecco Superiore made in the Lake Garda region in Northern Italy, this is traditionally made in the bottle secondary fermentation which creates a bracing lip-smacking acidity and freshness yet is rather full bodied.

Raffaldini wines available exclusively at the Villa we have found a wholesale distribution firm that targets wine shops and restaurants rather than mass supermarket, etc. We sought to build connections with independent retailers and restaurateurs so we can still tell our story to the sales outlet and build on the connection that we have with all of you. To begin, we agreed to have two value-based wines (Bella Misto and Bianco) as well as higher end (Vermentino Superiore and Montepulciano Riserva) available for sale.
