Il Papavero
If we had to rely on a single wine to capture the essence of Italy, it would be Il Papavero (‘The Poppy’). As a journalist once famously quipped, “If all table wines were this good, no one would leave the table.” Fruity, easy and very moreish.
We're sorry, this wine is sold out.

But don't worry, you'll find plenty more handpicked wines here.

The Wine
Il Papavero has been a chart topping favourite of customers for years – a wine for all seasons – the silken Italian charmer with incomparable versatility. It’s a great party red, perfect with nibbles, and partners pasta and pizza effortlessly. The value, too, is second to none. The secret? It’s all down to the dedication of Papavero maestro Scipione Giuliani – a fifth generation winemaker and quintessential Italian gent. Every vintage, Scipione selects only the ripest most flavoursome grapes from top performing regions across Italy to ensure Il Papavero is consistently delicious, with soft, supple, red berry vibrancy. Sangiovese from the Marches, Abruzzi Montepulciano, plus Negroamaro and Nero d’Avola from Puglia and Sicily. Irresistible
