Avignonesi is a Tuscan producer with a long history, but has really started to thrive since it was taken over in 2009. There has been a huge investment in the estate and winery, and there has been a big move towards being organic, biodynamic and sustainable. They now have 175 hectares in the Montepulciano appellation within Tuscany. Since Virginie Saverys took over the estate, she and her team have focussed on getting life back into the vineyard soils, and use no unnatural intervention.
47,8% Orpicchio, 22,1% Vermentino, 17,5% Grechetto, 12,6% Trebbiano
This wine is made from four different vinifications:
Orpicchio: whole cluster pressing followed by fermentation and ageing in amphorae and used barriques. Vermentino: whole bunch pressing followed by fermentation and ageing in amphorae. Grechetto: 6-day carbonic maceration in stainless steel followed by fermentation and ageing in used barriques. Trebbiano: 48-hour maceration of destemmed grapes followed by fermentation and ageing in used barriques. The individual wines aged on the fine lees during the winter before being blended and bottled in spring.
Intense yellow colour. A harmonious wine with a distinct and fresh personality. The nose is elegant with delicate notes of pineapple, white peach, elderflower and white flowers. Notes of lime and wildflower honey emerge on the palate. The marked acidity makes it long and elegant. The finish is savoury and persistent.

New & Exciting
There are very few wine shops as good as Butlers, years of buying wines from them. There is always something new & exciting to pick out off the shelves and if you’re in any doubt the advice is considered and insightful.

Brilliant Butlers!
Words can't express the brilliance of Butlers or the thoughtfulness, expertise and compassion of their team! Whilst packing up to move internationally a friend died and I needed to organise an emergency case of something luscious to support the wake. Not only did their wonderful team organise and deliver within an incredibly tight deadline they drafted a message for me too which I approved. Wonderful!!

Delightful, delicious, delectable
As a lockdown convert, I'm an online customer, but the clear website, with interesting blogs and some comprehensive descriptions, really helps to steer you. Great advice when needed and great service too.

Sourcing Stock
Henry and Team managed to locate some difficult to find American wine which they kindly offered and I gratefully accepted. They truly differentiate by being able to surprise by sourcing stock very much outside the run of the mill.

Great Wine/Spirit shop with knowledgeable, friendly and helpful staff
This was my second visit to Butlers Wine Cellar and on both occasions the service has been wonderful. The young lady assisted me and my wife on a number of purchases of wine and sherry and seemed very knowledgeable and made us feel welcome. Having tasted them she was spot on with her comments on each bottle. I would highly recommend anyone to use this shop.
