Chardonnay 'Cardellino'...

Chardonnay 'Cardellino'...

Chardonnay 'Cardellino' 2021 - South Tyrol DOC<br /><br />The Chardonnay 'Cardellino' was Elena Walch's first wine and is still probably the winery's most popular wine. According to an old tale, the goldfinch - the 'Cardellino' - only<br />builds its nest in Chardonnay vines, while it does not nest in other grape varieties. Elena Walch has thus dedicated her debut, an elegant Chardonnay full of character, to<br />this faithful little bird, which has won many lovers with its minerality, freshness, coupled with suppleness and excellent structure. The Chardonnay 'Cardellino' has long<br />since become a South Tyrolean classic and continues to be the most popular wine at the Walch family's table. A wine to which one remains loyal, just as the Cardellino<br />remains loyal to its Chardonnay.<br /><br />The Chardonnay 'Cardellino' convinces with a strong, straw-yellow colour, with a complex interplay of fruity aromas, citrus and orange peel, some lime blossom, mineral<br />richness and a spicy hint of tobacco. On the palate, this classic from Elena Walch surprises with exciting freshness and mineral race, with elegance and juicy length:<br />inviting, refreshing and easy to drink.<br /><br />OUTCOME OF THE YEAR 2021: we are delighted with a vintage of outstanding quality, especially for our white wines! A dry and cool spring led to a late flowering of the<br />vines, followed by a warm and dry June. After a volatile midsummer, there was a surprising change in the weather in mid-August, which brought dream weather until the end<br />of September and created the very best conditions for optimal ripening of the grapes. The harvest began in mid-September, about 10 days later than last year. Blue skies<br />and lots of sunshine as well as midsummer daytime temperatures and autumnally cool nights enabled the grapes to reach ideal sugar levels while retaining very good<br />acidity. Accordingly, the wines of the 2021 vintage show a markedly high quality.<br /><br />VINIFICATION: gentle pressing, static clarification, fermentation at a controlled temperature of about 20°C, long contact with the yeast after fermentation. Part of the must<br />(about 15%) is fermented in French oak barrels where it matures for six months. The assemblage takes place in spring.<br /><br />Alcohol: 13,50% Vol.<br />Total acidity: 6.7 g/L<br />Residual sugar: 0,5 g/L<br />Grape variety: 100% Chardonnay<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 />

Stoan 2020 Cuvèe weiss...

Stoan is a unique wine that reflects the richness and potential of our terroir. A lively blend of Chardonnay, Sauvignon, Pinot Blanc and Gewürztraminer, the brainchild of our<br />winemaker.<br /><br /><br />Description of the vintage: After a dry winter and an initially cold March, above-average spring temperatures favoured early budding and early flowering. From mid-May to<br />early June the weather was mainly rainy and wet. In the later maturation phase, rainfall was normal, with few heat peaks and concomitant short dry periods. Throughout the<br />summer the nights were characterised by pleasant coolness. Harvesting began in early September and until mid-October was interrupted repeatedly by single days of rain,<br />fortunately alternating with prolonged periods of sunshine. The white wines are fresh, with an intense olfactory profile. The red wines, with great finesse and elegance,<br />indicate great ageing potential.<br />Grape variety: Chardonnay 65%, Sauvignon 20%, Pinot Blanc 10%, Gewürztraminer 5%.<br />Yield: 45 hl/ha<br />Altitude: from 400, more from 500 - 600 metres<br />Exposure: south-east 90%, south 10%.<br />Harvest: end of September - mid-October<br />Bottles produced: about 48,000, 760 magnums and some large sizes<br />Soil: calcareous gravel mixed with clay<br />Age of vines: 10 - 40 years<br />Climate: wide temperature range due to hot days influenced by the Mediterranean climate and cold nights with very fresh winds coming from the mountains<br /><br />Vinification: the grapes are harvested entirely by hand and placed in small containers that keep them intact; immediate pressing; slow fermentation at a controlled<br />temperature (18°-20°) in wooden barrels (30-40 hl), in which malolactic fermentation also takes place; racking of the must by natural sedimentation.<br /><br />AGING: Refining in large wooden barrels (30-40 hl), always in contact with the yeasts until the end of August. After bottling, the wine is left in the bottle for a minimum of 3<br />months for further ageing, bringing the total ageing period to a minimum of 14 months.<br />to a minimum of 14 months.<br /><br />Alcohol content: 13,5 % vol.<br />Total acidity: 5,9 g/l<br />Residual sugars: 1.8 g/l<br />

Gewürztraminer 'Kastelaz'...

Gewürztraminer 'Kastelaz'...

Gewürztraminer Vigna 'Kastelaz' 2020<br /><br />The Vigna 'Kastelaz' is a unique steep slope directly above the wine village of Tramin and is one of the exclusive southern vineyards of South Tyrol. A 'Vigna' is an<br />additional designation of origin; the term stands for a precisely delineated and mapped vineyard. Due to its extreme slope of up to 63 degrees, the Vigna 'Kastelaz' is<br />elaborately laid out in narrow terraces. Moreover, it is entirely south-facing - a rarity in South Tyrol. Kastelaz is a side fan of postglacial origin and consists of a layered<br />structure of loose limestone soils interspersed with sand and hard rock such as granite and porphyry. The microclimatic conditions of the Vigna 'Kastelaz' are also rich in<br />contrasts: during the day the vines can benefit from the warm, extremely sunny southern exposure, while from late afternoon a strong wind and later the fresh evening<br />mountain air provide cool temperatures. Here, between 330 and 380 metres above sea level and with extremely low vine yields, some of Elena Walch's absolute top wines<br />are produced.<br /><br />'The Gewürztraminer Vigna 'Kastelaz' has long been one of the most famous Gewürztraminers on the international scene. It presents itself with a rich, golden yellow colour<br />and a beguilingly complex bouquet: elegant and mineral, with aromas of roses and lychee as well as some acacia honey in the background. The wine is also convincing and<br />complex on the palate: with an elegant structure, stimulating acidity, harmonious, spicy freshness and a delicate, juicy finish. A wine with a lot of finesse and character!'<br /><br />LESE 2020<br />Spring 2020, with its beautiful weather and warm temperatures, spring flowers in the garden and thick blanket of fresh snow on the mountains, led to the relatively early<br />development of the vines, which settled down again with the cooler temperatures in June. After a warm midsummer, the harvest started in the first days of September. The<br />autumn was characterised by warm days and cool nights, but also by some freak weather, whereby the careful cultivation of the vineyards in early summer was noticeable.<br />The 2020 vintage resulted in wines of great South Tyrolean typicity: The young white wines stand out with fresh liveliness and clear aromatic expression, the red wines show<br />very good structure and straight, fine fruit.<br />VINIFICATION Before pressing, the grapes are left to macerate for about 6 hours.

Nosiola CESCONI 750ml IGT

Nosiola CESCONI 750ml IGT

Nosiola is the only autochthonous white variety in Trentino, present since the time of the Council of Trent. The origin of the name has not yet been clarified. Many maintain<br />that it derives its name from hazelnut, due to the colour of the grapes when ripe, while others believe that it is the aroma of the wines that recalls that of wild hazelnuts.<br />What we do know is that it is a versatile variety, which like few others in the world can produce both great sweet wines and still white wines with a savoury character that<br />can age for many decades.<br /><br />Once widespread throughout the province, Nosiola was mainly grown on the Pressano hill and in the Valle dei Laghi. In recent times, the variety has undergone a major<br />downsizing in favour of international varieties to the extent that it has become almost 'rare'. Today it covers a cultivated area of only 65 hectares. As winegrowers, attached<br />to our territory and our traditions, we are happy to contribute to its preservation.<br /><br />Type of wine: White wine<br />Format: (Litres) 0.75<br />Production area: Nosiola is planted in the highest vineyards on the edge of the forest at an altitude of about 500 metres to the north-east of Pressano. Nosiola flowers early<br />and prefers high, well-ventilated and sunny areas. The vineyard is west-facing and has loose soil on a deep, fertile dolomite dejection cone. The vines have an average age of<br />35 years and are trained to the simple pergola system, with a density of about 3500 plants per hectare.<br />Vinification Part of the grapes are destemmed and macerated for 4-5 days until the 'cap rises'. At this point a cuvèe is made from the directly pressed grapes and<br />fermentation continues partly in stainless steel containers and partly in large acacia barrels. The acacia wood allows us to combine the advantages of vinification in wood<br />with the preservation of the fine and delicate bouquet of Nosiola. The wine remains in contact with its own yeast for about 9 months before being bottled at the end of the<br />summer.<br />
