There’s something truly magical about summertime dining. Long days turn into golden evenings, meals linger a little longer, and every bite tastes better under the sun. Whether you're hosting a garden party, heading to a BBQ, or enjoying a quiet dinner al fresco, our collection of Italian wines and artisan products brings the bold, sun-drenched flavours of Puglia straight to your table.

Here’s how to make the most of every sunny moment — with perfect pairings for every summer occasion.

BBQ Essentials: Bring the Flavour

If you’re firing up the BBQ, let us help you take it to the next level. Our bold and robust Il Vescovo Black Label red wine is a perfect pairing for grilled meats. Made with 60% Malbec, 30% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 10% Carménère grapes, this organic wine has been oak-aged for 24 months, delivering complex notes of dark fruit, soft tannins and a long, elegant finish.

Serve it alongside marinated lamb skewers, grilled sausages, or even a rich veggie burger for a show-stopping main course. The bold flavours of this wine hold up beautifully to smoky, flame-grilled food — and it’s sure to impress your guests.

Light Bites & Aperitivo

When the sun is high and the mood is relaxed, there’s no need to overcomplicate things. Keep it simple with a delicious Italian aperitivo hour — just add a chilled glass of wine, a bowl of Malbec Taralli and good company.

Our traditional taralli are handmade in Puglia and infused with our own Malbec wine, giving them a subtle depth of flavour that pairs beautifully with cheeses, cured meats, or olives. For wine, we love our Mòsi Roséa fresh and vibrant rosé made with Malbec and Bombino Nero grapes. With its floral aroma and soft, fruity finish, it’s an ideal match for light snacks and sunny afternoons.

Rustic Italian Charm: The Zio Mario Gift Box

If you’re entertaining, gifting, or simply treating yourself, our Zio Mario Gift Box delivers a true taste of Puglia in one beautifully packaged set. This handpicked selection includes our organic Malbec wine, Malbec-infused taralli, and other seasonal favourites — perfect for putting together a rustic antipasti board or as a thoughtful thank-you gift for your summer hosts.

Pair the products in this box with your favourite Italian cheeses, grilled vegetables, and crusty bread for a fuss-free but flavour-packed summer spread.

Finish With Something Sweet

No meal is complete without a sweet finish, and our Cantiniere Primitivo makes the perfect partner for your favourite dessert. This soft and gently sweet red wine is bursting with ripe berry notes and is made from the iconic Primitivo grape — a classic from the Puglia region.

Enjoy it with a rich chocolate torte, summer berry pavlova, or even on its own as you unwind at the end of the day.
