Hello all.

I am am trying to find an Italian winery in the Piedmont area that sells volume sales of bottled Asti Spumante.
I am looking to buy about 12,000 bottles.
If some one can point me into the right direction, thanks.

I have started with Martini and Rossi, but I am sure there are many in the Asti / Piedmont area and around Turin.

Very good stuff for a tenner, I tried a bottle last night and have added it to our wine list.

Majestic probably buy the sort of volume the OP is after so I would expect <£4 a bottle

Hi all,

£10 a bottle is not the ball park cost I am aiming for.
The Incoterms EXW price I am trying for is 2 euro / 75 cl

I have had a few replies, but it seems 12k bottles is perhaps more than just 1 winery can supply, so may need to go through the consortium.

I may do a "mix and match" and see how many of the 12k they can supply, then make the rest up with table reds & table whites
