New Arrival from Italy — Signoria dei Duchi Lambrusco
Great news: we are excited to announce the arrival of new wines from Italy! Our assortment has been expanded with an exclusive selection of Lambrusco from the legendary producer Signoria dei Duchi (Chiarli 1860), based in the Emilia-Romagna region.
Available now — three wines in amabile style (slightly sweet, vividly fruity, and incredibly easy to drink):
- Signoria dei Duchi Lambrusco Bianco — Lambrusco Bianco IGT.
- Signoria dei Duchi Lambrusco Rosso — Lambrusco Rosso IGT.
- Signoria dei Duchi Lambrusco Rosato — Lambrusco Rosato IGT.
Chiarli 1860 is the oldest winery in Emilia-Romagna and the first to officially launch commercial production of Lambrusco. The story began in 1860, when a Modena innkeeper, Fernando (Cleto) Chiarli, decided to bottle and sell his own wine. That decision marked the beginning of a legend: Chiarli became the first to present Lambrusco to the wider public, and soon their wines gained recognition far beyond Italy.
For over 160 years, the Chiarli family has preserved this heritage, staying true to the traditions and character of their region.
Today, Chiarli is a major European wine group that combines tradition with modern technology.
Within the company operates PR.I.V.I. S.r.l — the production facility responsible for bottling and quality control. It is here that the Signoria dei Duchi brand is crafted — approachable and popular Lambrusco wines made for export.
What makes these wines special?
- Fruitiness and freshness above all — a light, lively and friendly style
- Low alcohol content (7.5–11%) — perfect for relaxed enjoyment
- Extremely food-friendly: pairs beautifully with pizza, pasta, antipasti and grilled dishes
- In premium lines, the Charmat lungo method is used, adding depth and complexity.
Chiarli 1860 is a story of how a family winery became a symbol of Lambrusco — without losing its soul, traditions and love for wine that brings people together.

Ruggeri, one of the most renowned producers of Prosecco, celebrates its 75th anniversary! Since its founding in 1950 by Giustino Bisol and his cousin Luciano Ruggeri on the picturesque hills of Valdobbiadene — a UNESCO World Heritage site today — Ruggeri has consistently blended tradition, innovation, and a quest for perfection.
Throughout its history, Ruggeri has showcased a commitment to quality and innovative approaches. Laura Mair, Ruggeri's general manager, emphasizes: “75 years is an important milestone and at the same time, a launchpad for new adventures. We continue to follow the spirit of our founders, innovating in both viticulture and winemaking.”
The founder's son, Paolo Bisol, notes: “The essence of Ruggeri lies in the pursuit of quality, which underpins every aspect of our work.” These words reflect the company’s philosophy, which has been key to its long-term success.
To mark this anniversary, Ruggeri is organizing a special event for over 100 of its producers — a gesture of gratitude for their contribution to the company’s success. The celebration will also symbolize the unity of everyone who contributes to creating Ruggeri's unique wines: from employees and sommeliers to customers and brand enthusiasts.
This fall, the company will unveil a refreshed design for one of its flagship lines, marking yet another milestone in its continuous evolution.
Ruggeri is a story of tradition and change, hard work, and bold vision. Every glass of their Prosecco tells a tale of 75 years of passion and excellence, and each new chapter promises to be even more inspiring.
