Velenosi 2005 Roggio del Filare Red (Rosso Piceno Superiore)
- Online Exclusive
- $53
Dense concentration and oak-driven aromas of spice, blackberry, chocolate fudge and espresso open this thick Montepulciano (70%) and Sangiovese blend (packaged in an equally imposing and heavy glass bottle). The wine is plush, dense, sweet and would pair with roast pork and broad beans.

Velenosi 2005 Ludi Red (Offida Rosso)
- Online Exclusive
- $64
This is a dense and very ripe blend of Montepulciano, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot with thick notes of syrupy fruit, cumin and clove. You can feel the heat here and this powerful wine delivers soft layers of black cherry and toasted hazelnut in the mouth. The bottle is so heavy you almost need both hands to lift it.

Velenosi 2005 Vigna Solaria White (Falerio)
- Online Exclusive
The nice thing is how this wine delivers so much fruit, especially peach, apricot and mature pear. The mouthfeel is creamy and sophisticated but the overall emphasis is on the purity and intensity of the fruit fragrances. Grapes are harvested late, at the end of October, for extra flavor.

Velenosi 2007 Quercia Antica Superiore Lacrima (Lacrima di Morro d'Alba)
- Online Exclusive
- $14
This is a deeply perfumed wine with aromas of violets, red rose, wild berries and forest. Those unique aromas help it stand on its own and its soft tannins and thick density make it a pleasure to drink.

Velenosi 2010 Brut Passerina (Marche)
- Online Exclusive
Passerina is an indigenous native grape found in central Italy and this Brut expression represents one of the only sparkling versions of the wine available in the U.S. It’s simple and clean but also floral and fragrant with a spicy touch of citrus zest on the close. Give this unique bubble a try.

Velenosi 2006 Brecciarolo Red (Rosso Piceno Superiore)
- Online Exclusive
- $14
Brecciarolo delivers a clean nose of blackberry and Indian spice backed by dense extraction and sweet cherry flavors. It is smooth, sweet and rich in the mouth but also one-dimensional when you get down to the nuts and bolts.
— M.L.
