Nipozzano Chianti DOCG...

Nipozzano Riserva 2016<br />Chianti Rufina Riserva DOCG<br /><br />The emblematic wine of Castello Nipozzano, the historic Frescobaldi estate located a few miles north-east of Florence, Nipozzano Riserva is symbolic of the Tuscan wine-<br />making tradition and the continuing link with the terroir.<br /><br />Climatic trend: the 2016 season at Castello Nipozzano is a splendid vintage. Spring arrived slightly late and was cool, marked by abundant precipitation, especially during<br />the flowering period. Conversely the summer was mild, with very little rainfall from the end of June until harvest. August enjoyed high temperatures and was sunny on the<br />whole.<br /><br />Wine Variety: Sangiovese and complementary varieties<br />Alcohol content: 13%<br />Maturation: barriques - 24 months<br /><br />Vinification and ageing: harvest took place in the first few days of September. As soon as the grapes were harvested, they were taken to the cellar. Once de-stemmed, the<br />natural fermentation process began in thermo-regulated stainless steel vats. The wine remained in the vats to complete maceration. After racking, malolactic fermentation<br />took place in steel as well. At the end of the year, the wine was transferred into barriques, where it was aged for a further 24 months. A further period in the bottle brought<br />Nipozzano 2016 to its full expression as a wine with exceptional balance.<br /><br />Tasting notes: Nipozzano 2016 boasts the characteristics of this superb vintage with strength and finesse. Its intense ruby red colour gives it a bold and elegant character.<br />Red berries and notes of ripe citrus fruit give way to a delicately fruity nose, followed by elegant notes of violet. This is all completed with a slight spiciness. The palate<br />expresses itself with an intriguing, harmonious complexity. Nipozzano 2016 is dense and persistent.<br /><br />Awards<br />JamesSuckling.Com: 92 Points<br />Wine Advocate: 92 Points<br />

IGT Il Blu Brancaia 2018 750ml

Description: Since its debut in 1988, IL BLU has been the result of our constant search for perfection. Made from only the best hand-picked and selected grapes from our<br />two Chianti estates, with fine tannins and a soft, full finish, this wine is distinguished by its complexity and elegance. Today, thanks to the ever-improving complexity of our<br />Merlot grapes, especially from our vineyards in Radda in Chianti, it is a blend of 80% Merlot and 10% each of Sangiovese and Cabernet Sauvignon. Each individual variety is<br />aged separately in barriques, two-thirds new, for 18 months. Then, once assembled, the final blend matures in unglazed cement vats for 3 months. In this way the wine<br />becomes more balanced, the tannins and aromas are better integrated even before the one-year bottle ageing. We continue to work constantly to improve this wine, while<br />taking great care to preserve its identity. The character and style of IL BLU have been marked by continuity over all these years: something we intend to carry on for the next<br />30 years.<br /><br />Appellation: IGT Rosso Toscana<br /><br />Grape varieties 80% Merlot 10% Sangiovese 10% Cabernet Sauvignon<br /><br />Vineyards and terroir: vineyards Castellina in Chianti, Radda in Chianti<br /><br />Altitude and exposure: 230 - 400 m a.s.l.; S-SO exp.<br /><br />Soil Castellina in Chianti: clayey; Radda in Chianti: medium-textured, rich in stones<br /><br />Climate and microclimate Continental climate, with cold winters (temperatures below 0° C) and very hot summers.<br />Vinification and refinement: Harvest 08.09.18 - 04.10.18<br /><br />Analytical Data<br />Alcohol content: 14,5%; total acidity: 5,80%.<br />Fermentation temperature 28°.<br />Skin contact Up to 18 days<br />Maturation in barrels 18 months, 2/3 in new French oak barrels, 1/3 in second passage French oak barrels, further 3 months in cement tanks<br />Bottle ageing At least 12 months<br />First vintage produced 1988<br />Evolutionary potential Up to 25 years<br /><br />Aromas of currants, violets and cocoa.

Franciacorta cuvee Rosé...

Transition. More than a color, pink is like a suspended mood, a delicate transition from white to red in shades never quite one or the other. Franciacorta Rosé gives a<br />magical sensation midpoint between two hues. The rosé color is obtained after brief maceration of red Pinot Nero grapes. Just a few hours are needed to get that special tint<br />recalling springtime sunsets: you must seize the moment, an instant earlier it's too pale, an instant later it's too dark. And then a delicate blending with Chardonnay and<br />slow, patient maturation. Cuvée Prestige Rosé, the ideal Franciacorta for momentous occasions. Especially the most romantic.<br /><br />Grape varieties<br />Pinot Nero 78%, Chardonnay 22%.<br /><br />Maturation sur lies<br />For an average of 30 months.<br /><br />Dosage at disgorgement<br />Equivalent to 0.5 grams of sugar per litre - Extra Brut.<br /><br />Analytical data at disgorgement<br />Alcohol 12.5 % Vol.; pH 3.14; Total Acidity 5.70 grams/litre;<br />Volatile Acidity 0.38 grams/litre.<br />
