Beerenauslese Kracher Cuvee...

Beerenauslese Kracher Cuvee...

Weinlaubenhof Kracher is located south-east of Vienna in Burgenland, a region characterised by gravelly soils with varying limestone content transported by the Danube<br />River. The presence of this river together with Lake Neusiedl creates a warm humid climate ideal for the formation of noble rot on the grapes produced in the area. Kracher is<br />based in Illmitz, on the Hungarian border, and has been run since 2007 by Alois' son Gerhard Kracher, with the help of his wife Yvonne: it is Austria's leading winery for<br />sweet wines. The varieties used are Welschriesling, Chardonnay, Traminer, Scheurebe, Muskat-Ottonel, and in some vintages also Zweigelt. Kracher harvests and vinifies<br />small batches, using a number series to distinguish them: a higher number corresponds to a higher sugar concentration in the wine. Two types of wine are produced: Cuvée,<br />sweet wines of medium concentration, Beerenauslese and Eiswein; Kollektion, very concentrated sweet wines produced according to two different methods: Zwischen den<br />Seen (traditional with fermentation in steel or wooden barrels) and Nouvelle Vague (modern with the use of new barriques). WEINLAUBENHOF KRACHER has also entered<br />into a partnership with the Liliac Winery in Transylvania, in order to exploit the climatic peculiarities of the Lechinta region that are optimal for the production of Eiswein.<br /><br />Cuvée Beerenauslese<br /><br />Varieties: Welschriesling (Riesling Italico), Chardonnay.<br />Vineyards: Weinlaubenhof Kracher is located southeast of Vienna in Burgenland,<br />a region characterised by gravelly soils with varying limestone content transported<br />by the Danube River. The presence of this river together with Lake Neusiedl creates<br />an ideal warm and humid climate for the formation of noble rot on the grapes produced<br />in the area.<br /><br />Vinification: The Beerenauslese Cuvée is partly (85%) fermented and matured<br />in stainless steel, the other part (15%) in large barrels; maturing lasts for 12<br />months.<br /><br />Characteristic properties: The Beerenauslese Cuvée has aromas of white peaches and honeydew.<br />honeydew, while the palate reveals notes of citrus fruits, tangerine, ripe yellow peach.

Tinto Pesquera 2019 750ml

Tinto Pesquera 2019 750ml

The bodega Tinto Pesquera is located in Pesquera de Duero, a village about 200 km north of Madrid, in the Ribera del Duero. This region is about 115 km long and takes its<br />name from the word ribera, which means cultivated fields near a watercourse. The soil is of alluvial origin characterised by the presence of clay, sand and infiltrations of<br />limestone and debris, while the climate is continental. In a cellar dating back to the 16th century, Alejandro Fernández created Tinto Pesquera in the 1970s: the name of his<br />winery, in a short time, embodied the renaissance of Spanish wine and especially Tempranillo. Tinto Pesquera is the result of Alejandro Fernández's close bond with his<br />land, Pesquera de Duero, so much so that his wine label features the town's symbols: its name, its tower and its arch. After alcoholic fermentation, the Tinto Pesquera<br />wines are not clarified and mature in French and American barriques for 18 months for the Tinto Pesquera and 24 months for the Reserva. In truly special vintages, the Tinto<br />Pesquera Janus Gran Reserva is produced, a single vineyard Tempranillo that is the epitome of elegance of this variety.<br /><br />Varietal: Tempranillo.<br /><br />Vineyards: The vineyards used to produce the Tinto Pesquera are located in Roa and La Horra (approximately 800 metres above sea level) in Ribiera del Duero. The soils are<br />heterogeneous, predominantly clay marl with the presence of limestone.<br /><br />Vinification: the wine ages 14 months in American oak barrels, then 6 months in the bottle before release.<br /><br />Characteristics: characterised by its brilliant colour, garnet hue, attractive and elegant. On the nose it has notes of red berries blending with balsamic hints. In the mouth it<br />is sweet, combining fruity hints with balsamic notes and liquorice.<br />

Malbec Riserva ALTOS Las...

Malbec Riserva ALTOS Las...

Altos Las Hormigas was founded in Mendoza in 1995 by oenologist Alberto Antonini and entrepreneur Antonio Morescalchi, later joined by Attilio<br />Pagli and Carlos Vazquez. The property extends in the Mendoza region and in particular in the two subzones of Luján de Cuyo and Maipú, where the<br />first Altos Las Hormigas vineyards were planted in 1996. At present, the agronomic management of the land aims to protect the natural heritage of<br />the region, whose particular beauty is also due to the fact that it lies at the foot of Aconcagua, an Andean mountain, to the east of which the largest<br />portion of the estate faces. The nature of the soils is clay-limestone with alluvial sedimentation, and in some areas has sand and pebbles. The climate<br />of the region is characterised by dry periods and a marked temperature alternation: very hot days and cold nights. The winery currently covers an area<br />of 206 hectares, 40 of which are planted to Malbec and 6 to Bonarda. Harvesting is done manually and takes place in February and March. Altos Las<br />Hormigas wines are the result of little intervention in the cellar, aimed at enhancing the incredible heritage of Malbec vinified in purity.<br /><br />Varietal: Malbec.<br /><br />Vineyards: The grapes come from vineyards located on limestone soils in the Uco Valley, alluvial deposits of the Tunuyán River in Paraje Altamira and<br />Gualtallary. These terraces are characterised by the presence of medium to large gravel covered with calcium carbonate paste.<br /><br />Vinification: Malbec Reserve 2017 is made from hand-picked Malbec grapes.<br />During fermentation, excessive extraction is avoided and only indigenous yeasts are used. The wine matures for 22 months in 3,500-litre, unroasted<br />French oak barrels and then ages 12 months in the bottle.<br /><br />Characteristics: Malbec Reserve 2017 is characterised by spicy notes such as white and pink pepper, violets, graphite, red fruits, berries and underbrush.<br />Complex, long, it is an evolving wine in the glass with fine-grained structured tannins that linger long on the palate.<br />

The winter season passed with mild temperatures and low rainfall. These<br />conditions led to an early spring. From the second week of April, the weather changed dramatically and until mid-May, rain was the protagonist with temperatures below<br />average. These weather conditions compromised the flowering and were the cause of spinning of the wings of the bunches and floral dripping, resulting in smaller, more<br />sparse bunches with very low average weights. After 15 May we saw a clear improvement in the weather conditions which allowed us to set fruit in favourable conditions.<br />Above-average temperatures characterised the month of June, which can be described as the driest in the last 20 years. The dry weather continued until mid-July with the<br />vines beginning to show symptoms of water stress. The beginning of August brought us the much-desired rain, effectively saving the season.<br />From 20 August, with the start of the harvest, temperatures returned to normal and the fine weather accompanied us until the end of the season.<br />and good weather accompanied us until the end of August. The harvest began on 20 August and ended on 5 September in good weather. Average yield per hectare was<br />4,800 kilograms of grapes, equivalent to 3,020 litres of wine (wine yield: 63%). The small size of the bunches and the low yields in the vineyard have legitimised the high<br />quality of this vintage, which is expressed in the Cuvée Prestige Edition 44 by an intense aroma of citrus, white and yellow fruits and by a full-bodied, extremely lively taste.<br /><br />VINIFICATION<br />The base wines of the Cuvée Prestige are the result of a careful selection of grapes and a skilful vinification process conducted in full respect of the Ca' del Bosco Method.<br />The grapes, harvested by hand in small crates, are classified and cooled. Each bunch is selected by expert eyes and hands, and then benefits from the exclusive 'berry<br />spa': a special system of washing and hydromassage of the bunches consisting of three soaking tubs and a drying tunnel. After pressing in the absence of oxygen, all the<br />musts of the base wines ferment in temperature-controlled steel tanks and remain there until the following March. Seven months of refinement are then necessary for the<br />wine to clarify, mature and bring out the best of the character of the original vineyards. The wines are then skilfully blended in the 'magic ritual' of creating the cuvée. It is<br />only after a minimum of two years of ageing on the lees that this Franciacorta can express all its richness and identity. The dégorgement takes place in the absence of<br />oxygen, using a unique system designed and patented by Ca' del Bosco. This avoids oxidative shocks and further additions of sulphites. It makes our Franciacorta wines<br />purer, more pleasant and longer-lived. Finally, each packaged bottle is uniquely marked to ensure traceability.<br /><br />DRILLING<br />From April to June of the year following the harvest.<br /><br />AVERAGE AGEING ON THE LEES<br />On average 25 months.<br /><br />DOSAGE AT DISGORGING<br />Sugar content 1.0 grams/litre - 'Extra Brut'.<br /><br />ANALYTICAL DATA AT DISGORGEMENT<br />Alcohol 12.8% vol.; pH 3.11; Total acidity 5.80 grams/litre; Volatile acidity 0.32 grams/litre.<br /><br />SULPHITES<br />Total sulphur dioxide, maximum 55 milligrams/litre (maximum legal limit: 185 milligrams/litre), concentration specified on the back label.<br />
