Casa Charlize Cuvee Notte and Casa Charlize Floreale
Italian wines always work. Among the lovely Italian wines in our selection, you’ll find, for example, Casa Charlize Cuvee Notte and Casa Charlize Floreale.
Casa Charlize is a Global Wine House brand with a simple goal: quality wine at a reasonable price—a true everyman’s ticket to Tuscany.
For Casa Charlize wines, Global Wine House collaborates with the century-old Castellani winery in Pontedera. Their experience and expertise help craft wines that are hard to resist. The aim is to combine the quality and reputation of classic Italian wines with an appreciation for the history and traditions of winemaking.
Just like the highest-priced “Super Tuscans,” Casa Charlize wines also include French grape varieties. Therefore, the official quality designation is IGT, or Indicazione Geografica Tipica, a wine typical of its region, rather than a higher quality classification.
We’ve picked two gems from Casa Charlize below. Learn more about Casa Charlize on its producer page.
A dark wine as deep as the night won’t leave you cold
Casa Charlize Cuvee Notte
Cuvée Notte Puglia brings to mind the aroma of a simmering pot and the happy anticipation of dinner. The gastronomic experiences of the Apulia region—in the form of pasta, braised vegetables, air-dried hams and meats like Capocollo and Culatello—have always called for wine as a companion. Preferably a wine from the region. Casa Charlize’s Puglia is an acquaintance that won’t leave you cold.
An excellent meat wine for both grilled meat and various stews. It also pairs well with roasted vegetables and is great company for aged cheeses. Richly fruity, jammy berry notes, soft tannins, long and full-bodied.

A gloriously floral Pinot Grigio
Casa Charlize Floreale
Another feel-good wine from Casa Charlize that brings to mind the sea, vacation, and pleasant moments!
Florally fruity and easily approachable, Casa Charlize Floreale brings a new perspective to Pinot Grigio wines with its offering, which traditionally most often comes from Northern Italy. Sicily’s advantages are its elevation differences and cool sea breezes, which give the wine freshness while temperature variations bring acidity to the grapes.
This refreshingly acidic wine works as a pleasant aperitif and pairs excellently with a hearty salad or chicken dishes.
