Flint Wines has signed a deal as the exclusive distributor of Piedmont winery Cantina del Pino in the UK.

The deal will see the fine wine merchant take over distribution of the Italian winery’s portfolio across both the on and off-trade with immediate effect.

Located in Barbaresco, the family-owned Cantina del Pino estate produces a “pure and refined” range of wines from humble dolcetto through to single vineyard Barbarescos.

The winery was the perfect addition to Flint’s expanding portfolio, said Italian buyer, Philippa Saunders, adding it offered a “touch of class at great value prices”.

“Italy is a very exciting country wine-wise at the moment and we have ambitious plans to reflect this and develop our list further,” she said, with further estates poised to be added in the near future.

Other “top estates” in Flint’s Italian portfolio include Cerbaiona, Elena Fucci, Due Terre, Novaia, Roncus and Cantina del Castello.

In addition to Cantina del Pino, Flint’s wine menu includes a further 23 wine estates from the Piedmont region.
