Chianti class. 2023...
At Castellare, Chianti Classico is produced using only two indigenous grape varieties: Sangioveto, the prince of Tuscan vines, which makes up 90% of the blend, and the<br />remaining 10% of Canaiolo, another typical variety of the area. The true Chianti Classico, therefore, without the addition of international grape varieties such as Cabernet<br />or Merlot, in order to maintain the authentic formula of the most famous of Italian wines while at the same time seeking maximum elegance.<br /><br />Tasting notes: the colour of this Chianti Classico is the ruby red of Sangioveto. The nose is fragrant, fresh with pleasant hints of red fruit, liquorice, currants and a light<br />touch of vanilla. The typical notes of Chianti Sangiovese dominate. On the palate it expresses a pleasant sweetness, is round, soft and savoury. Acidity and persistence<br />characterise a very elegant aftertaste.<br /><br />Pairings: A very versatile wine that also goes well with structured and important dishes. It also goes well with stews and medium-aged cheeses.<br /><br />Varieties: 90% Sangioveto 10% Canaiolo<br />

Cabernet Sauvignon 375ml...
CABERNET SAUVIGNON<br /><br />This variety needs no introduction and has also found much space in Friuli. The low yields and strong stripping favour a more 'southern' maturation. Maceration is not too<br />long and during this phase great care is taken to separate the grape seeds. The result is a wine with an intense colour, warm aromas and a rounded taste, where the tannin<br />expresses itself above all with elegance.<br /><br />Grape variety: Cabernet Sauvignon<br />Denomination: IGT Venezia Giulia<br />Municipality of production: San Lorenzo - Corona - Romans (Gorizia)<br />Soil type: calcareous gravelly plateau (60/25 m asl)<br />Vineyard: Cultivated with organic fertilisation and integrated pest management (as per EU regulations) with no chemical weed control<br />Average age of vines: 15 years<br />Training system: Guyot 5.200 - 5.600 vines/ha<br />Production: 50 - 55 hl/ha<br />Harvesting: By hand with careful selection of the grapes<br />Alcohol content: 13%.<br />Serving temperature: 18 °C<br />Bottles produced: 110,000 (average)<br />Ageing potential 10 years<br />

Spumante Marchesi Guerrieri...
Trento d.o.c. blanc de blancspas dosè<br />It is the unceasing work of numerous sparkling wine producers who strongly believe in the territory and in the quality of a unique wine: producing a Trentodoc sparkling<br />wine is a precious art, a vocation, a skill.<br /><br />The skilful hands of Marchesi Guerrieri Gonzaga have given life to a new expression of their savoir faire with Trentodoc sparkling wine, a tribute to the mountains of<br />Trentino where it originates.<br />Marchesi Guerrieri Gonzaga sparkling wine is a Blanc de Blancs Pas Dosè. It is made from 100% Chardonnay grapes cultivated in the Pressano hills at an altitude of 400<br />metres, on marly-calcareous soils that produce structured wines, and in the upper Cembra valley at an altitude of between 400 and 700 metres on sandy soils of porphyry<br />origin, where more floral wines are produced, with a marked acidity and great freshness. The harvest is carried out exclusively by hand between the last ten days of August<br />and the first days of September. The grapes are immediately processed and fermentation is carried out exclusively in stainless steel at a controlled temperature. The wine<br />remains for at least 8 months on its yeasts, which give it complexity before being bottled. It then remains for a minimum of 36 months in refinement where the magic of the<br />wine comes to life. Finally, after disgorging, it rests a further 6 months in the silence of the cellars. The blend of these grapes from such different vineyards gives rise to an<br />extremely elegant and vertical sparkling wine with a strong identity, a tribute to the wonderful mountains of Trentino.<br />

Through hard work and meticulous attention to detail, we ultimately achieved great results.<br />Our vines coped well with both the wet spring and the hot and dry summer, and the golden autumn helped us achieve perfect ripeness. Physiolog-ical ripeness, sugar<br />ripeness and acidity are in perfect balance. Ripe fruit, cool character and moderate alcohol characterise the vintage.<br />From mid-September to the end of October, we were able to harvest all our red wine varieties at the best time. The average yield per hectare was 53 hl.<br /><br />Winemaking<br /><br />La Rose de Manincor is the result of the top red wine batches being made by the saignée method, i.e. bleeding off a proportion of wine after only short contact with the<br />skins - in this case 6 to 12 hours; it increases the ratio of skins to juice in the vat in order to obtain a red wine with more colour and tannin. Consequently the composition<br />and character of the rosé wine may vary slightly from year to year. The lightly coloured juice so obtained is fermented in oak barrels partially using yeasts occurring<br />naturally on the grapes. The young wine is subsequently matured on the fine lees to allow the aromas and flavour to develop.<br /><br />Data<br /><br />Residual sugar: 0.9 g/l<br />Alcohol: 13 % vol.<br />Acidity: malolactic fermentation: 6.0 g/l<br /><br />Description & drinking recommendation<br /><br />Bright salmon red in colour with a bouquet reminiscent of raspberry and cherry, juicy and creamy on the palate, excellent length with a mineral-fruity aftertaste.<br />Enjoy at optimum maturity from early summer 2024 to the end of 2027.<br />Serve: very lightly chilled but not cold; 46 - 50 °F<br />An excellent match for well-seasoned first courses, fried or smoked fish as well as dishes of white and grilled meats.<br /><br />Our claim<br /><br />Biodynamic<br />Respekt-BIODYN<br />Vegan<br />
