"Massimo" is one of our most important creations.
It was created in 1997 from an idea of our owner and winemaker Giancarlo Massimo Lenotti, who successfully mixed a certain percentage of different native grapes (Rebo, Pelara, Dindarella and Oseleta) with two well-known grapes (Corvina and Sangiovese).
This idea was born after the purchase of the La Prà vineyard in Cavaion Veronese in February 1997, a large estate already planted with vines at that time, which were autochthonous vines and were almost unknown to us.
We had to do a lot of research to find out the specific classification of these grapes. At the beginning it was not really clear what we could do with these grapes, except to think about replacing them with other varieties.
But Giancarlo Massimo Lenotti decided, during the first harvest in October 1997, to vinify each grape separately in order to understand what kind of results we could obtain.
In this way, unknown characteristics were discovered in terms of consistency, aroma and colour, which allowed us to create a cuvée whose result is our special “Massimo” wine.
The name “Massimo” has a double meaning for us: on the one hand, in honour of Giancarlo Massimo Lenotti for his successful wine project, and on the other hand, to emphasise that this wine is the “maximum” and therefore one of the top wines in our range.

Colosseum Wines Ltd
Colosseum Wines is a family business selling quality Italian wines imported directly from small, family-run vineyards since 2007.
Our founder, Max Scacchi, is from Italy. Following the death of his mother when he was just two years old, Max moved to live on his grandparents’ farm near Milan. To escape the bustle of the farm he would spend hours in their small vineyard where his love of wine grew.
He said: “The farm was full of cows, pigs, ducks, rabbits etc. but what I loved the most was my grandfather’s vineyard. I would sit and try to figure out how a single grape, which was food to me at that time, could be transformed into a bottle of wine. I was, and still am, fascinated by the process.
Max has now many years of experience working in the wine industry, he has built relationships with producers from across his home country. He seeks out the best specialist vineyards that produce a limited number of bottles each year. This means that any wine you buy from us has been handpicked and is exclusive to Colosseum Wines. You won’t find our wine in supermarkets. So, whether you are looking for a top quality sparkling Prosecco or a lovely mineral white wine from the north or fruity and powerful red wine from the south, we have a unique selection to suit every taste.
If you live in central Scotland, we deliver wines by the case direct to your door. As we get to know you and your tastes you’ll become part of the Colosseum Wines family. We deliver by the case and all our wines are competitively priced.
