94 points - Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate, March 2016
Here is Grenache like you've never tasted it. The 2010 Kupra offers a fascinating portrait of this Rhône Valley protagonist. Here in the Marche (Central Italy) - and thanks to the signature style of Oasi degli Angeli - the grape shows a denser and sweeter personality than you might get elsewhere. Those variety-specific aromas of wild berry, tin can and licorice powder are in full swing. But the intensity is taken up a notch or two. The ensemble is delicate and complex with moist earth, crushed granite and Indian spice. The finish is super silky and smooth. The wine is fermented in cement vat and aged in oak for 30 months.
Oasi degli Angeli, owned by Eleonora Rossi and Marco Casolanetti, is a winery that definitely marches to the beat of its own drum. Of the handful of producers in the Marche focused on Grenache, Oasi degli Angeli shows the most impressive results. The Kupra is 100% Bordò grapes (a Grenache biotype).

OUR STORY
FOUNDERS AND BACKGROUND
Founders Marco Prete and Cristina Fragni have spent a lifetime in close contact with the top European winemakers and cellar masters, and have spent decades on their shared passion for learning, tasting, and even assisting in the production of fine wines.
After relocating to NYC in 2013, they found that many of their favorite vintages were not available in the US. Inspired by a lack of available inventory on the usual channels, they decided that it was essential to them personally and professionally to create a bespoke, world-class collection of fine wines available for US import.
The Wines of Kings collection of exquisite wines reflects the founders’ obsession with premium wines that are made authentically.
