As the rain beats down over Britain, why not let yourself drift off and dream of lazy Italian days in the sun with a delicious glass of Ravelli wine by your side?

Ravelli wines are produced in two stunning areas of Italy: the vineyards of the Veneto near Venice and in the beautiful region of Chianti.

A taste of Ravelli will remind you of some of the delights of Italy, like the beautiful city of Venice, where shimmering water replaces the roads and authentic trattorias selling tasty local dishes are found on every corner.

Ravelli is a taste of the spirit of Italy, captured in a delicious range which includes the ruby red Ravelli Rosso delle Venezie with hints of currants and violets and Ravelli Bianco, a refreshing white with juicy apple flavours.
