superwhitesAbout Super Withes:  The SuperWhites project was inspired by Slow Food’s desire to bring to customers’ attention the superb quality of the white wines made in Friuli. A large number of different vine varieties are cultivated in the region. Some are internationally known and others are native grapes exclusive to the region. It is bounded to the north and east by the mountains that shape its climate, protecting it from cold north winds. Relatively high rainfall and the sea to the south ensure a limited range of temperature variation through the year over most of the region’s territory.

 

About Us:  We will unleash the full potential of Italy’s fine heritage in food and wine into your kitchen and your cellar. Altissima is  your gateway to the very best Italian wines and gourmet products.  Each of our buyers is a Master of the particular product they procure. In addition to this, we often rely on the Slow Food Conviva local network to source and discover the very best that territory can express. Trough our partners we are able to distribute our products all around the UK maintaining product safety and integrity through unbroken chill chain distribution to BRC standards.
