The De Conciliis family are big fans of jazz-reversing the letters of Selim, the first sparkler made in Campania, gives you "Miles," a name instantly recognizable to any music buff. Crafted from Fiano and Aglianico, two grapes indigenous to Campania, this spumante is made in the charmat method. The yellow-green Selim itself has a refreshing nose of tropical and citrus fruits, peach and apple. Intense, unusual and beautifully balanced, Selim is a fitting tribute to its namesake. Drink now.

Bruno De Conciliis capitalizes on southern exposure and ancient soils in the ripe climate of the Cilento zone of Campania to produce full-bodied, fruit driven wines that are more approachable than the austere Taurasi. His signature wine is the majestic Naima (named after the John Coltrane song and the winemaker's love of jazz), which is a recent Tre Bicchieri winner; but Bruno also makes a range of Aglianicos in varying styles, with Zero catering to the collectors' market. This is a limited production, modern style Aglianico that is complex and elegant. In addition, he produces wines outside this market which can be enjoyed at contained prices. With jazz echoing in the cellars to keep his wines happy, the juice of De Conciliis is sure to be a hit with any wine enthusiast.
