Chianti M.Antinori Tenuta...
Marchese ANTINORI<br />Classification<br />Chianti Classico DOCG Riserva<br />Grapes<br />Sangiovese and other complementary varieties<br />Vintage<br />2020<br />Climate<br />The year 2020 in Chianti Classico began with a mild, dry winter and, only in the final part of March, was marked by a brief cold spell; these climatic conditions favoured an<br />early budding of the vines. An averagely rainy and rather cool spring preceded a hot summer, free of thermal extremes, and characterised by a few rainy events that allowed<br />the bunches to grow optimally.<br />The month of September, during which harvesting operations began, was characterised above all in its final part by light rainfall that favoured the completion of the phenolic<br />ripening of the grapes. The harvest began around 20 September with the Sangiovese and ended on 9 October with the Cabernet Sauvignon.<br /><br />Vinification and ageing<br />On arrival in the cellar, the grapes were destemmed and then softly pressed; the must was transferred to stainless steel tanks where alcoholic fermentation took place,<br />which lasted about a week. Maceration was managed with very gentle pumping over and délestage in order to ensure an intense extraction but at the same time capable of<br />preserving the elegance and sweetness of the tannins. At the end of malolactic fermentation, which took place spontaneously by the end of the year, the blended wine<br />continued its ageing in French and Hungarian oak barriques for about a year. The Marchese Antinori was then bottled and aged in the bottle for a further 12 months.<br /><br />Alcohol content: 14.0% Vol.<br /><br />Historical data<br />Tenuta Tignanello is located in the heart of Chianti Classico, on the soft hillsides between the Greve and Pesa valleys, and covers 319 hectares, of which about 130 are<br />planted with vines. Tenuta Tignanello's vineyards are composed mainly of the indigenous Sangiovese and non-traditional varieties such as Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet<br />Franc. The Marchese Antinori is a historic reserve of the Antinori house, a wine created to portray the full expression of quality and elegance of Chianti Classico in this<br />unique territory.<br /><br />Tasting notes<br />Intense ruby red in colour, Marchese Antinori Chianti Classico Riserva 2020 stands out on the nose for fresh notes of red fruit alternating with floral sensations of mallow and<br />lavender. In the rich bouquet, sweet hints of white chocolate alternate with spicy aromas. On the palate, the soft, enveloping entry continues in an<br />elegant taste, with vibrant tannins, showing the typical energy of the vineyards of origin and introducing a long, savoury and persistent finish where notes of white pepper,<br />flowers and cocoa powder re-emerge.<br />

Il Bruciato BOLGHERI 2021...
Il Bruciato 2019<br />Classification DOC<br />Vintage 2019<br />Climate: The 2019 vintage was marked by a generally cold period between April and May and by generally warm and dry weather until July. The initial slight delay in the<br />vegetative cycle was recovered from the summer onwards. The sudden rise in temperature, especially for the later varieties where fruit set had not yet been completed,<br />favoured a production characterised by light, sparse bunches. The stable and sunny weather in August and September enabled the grapes to complete their ripening in<br />optimum conditions. The harvest began with Merlot at the beginning of September and ended with Cabernet Sauvignon at the beginning of October. The other varieties were<br />also harvested in mid to late September: Syrah and small quantities of Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot.<br />Vinification: On arrival at the winery, the selected grapes were destemmed and softly crushed. Fermentation and maceration took place in temperature-controlled stainless<br />steel tanks for a period of about 10-15 days at a temperature of 28-30 °C. Some of the Merlot and Syrah must was kept at lower fermentation temperatures to preserve the<br />varietal aromas. Malolactic fermentation took place partly in barriques and partly in stainless steel tanks, and was completed by the end of the year for all varieties. The<br />Cabernet Sauvignon was then blended with Merlot, Syrah, and small quantities of Cabernet France Petit Verdot. The wine thus obtained was returned to the barrique, where<br />it rested before being bottled.<br />Historical data: Tenuta Guado al Tasso is located in the small, prestigious DOC area of Bolgheri, on the coast of the Alta Maremma, about a hundred kilometres south-west<br />of Florence. This appellation has a relatively short history (it was founded in 1994) but boasts international fame as a new point of reference in the world wine scene.Tenuta<br />Guado al Tasso covers an area of 1,000 hectares - about 320 planted with vines, the rest with wheat, sunflowers and olive trees - in a splendid plain surrounded by hills<br />known as the 'Bolgheri amphitheatre' for its particular conformation. The vineyards of Guado al Tasso are mainly composed of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Syrah, Cabernet<br />Franc, Petit Verdot and Vermentino grapes. They enjoy a mild climate due to the proximity of the sea: the constant breezes mitigate the summer heat and the rigours of<br />winter, clean the sky and keep the sunshine index high. Il Bruciato was born in 2002, during one of the most difficult harvests of Tenuta Guado al Tasso, to tell the story of<br />the unique terroir of Bolgheri in a modern style. Initially, the grape used was that of Guado al Tasso, but over the years the varietal composition has changed and there is<br />now a dedicated rose of varieties. The Bruciato was not produced in 2003.<br />Tasting Notes: The 2019 Bruciato shows its usual intense ruby red colour. The nose is characterised by notes of small, intact black fruits, sweet spices and tobacco. The<br />palate has good structure, harmony and pleasantness of drinking. In the aftertaste, fresh and fruity notes predominate, giving the wine succulence and sweetness.<br />

Teroldego Rotaliano DOC...
Teroldego Rotaliano DOC<br />BOTTEGA VINAI<br /><br />Teroldego is probably the oldest quality vine variety produced in Trentino; in fact, there has been talk of it since the 15th century, but there is no certainty as to its<br />etymological origin: perhaps it refers to the 'Tiroler Gold' - gold of the Tyrol - for its intrinsic quality that prompted Cesare Battisti to define it as the 'prince wine of Trentino'.<br />In 1948, its producers were the first to form a consortium for the protection of Teroldego Rotaliano and in 1970 they were the first to obtain the recognition of Denominazione<br />di Origine Controllata. Production area: Campo Rotaliano, to the north of Trento, in the municipality of Mezzolombardo, on the glacial gravel banks of the Noce torrent, which<br />in fact reproduce the characteristics of the hillside.<br /><br />Grape varieties: exclusively Teroldego with a yield of 80 hectolitres per hectare. It has large, trilobate leaves with sharp, irregular toothing and red autumn colouring; the<br />vigour of the vines is good and constant, grown using the Trentino pergola; the bunches are fairly compact, the skin is pruinose and leathery and the flesh juicy.<br /><br />Vinification and refinement: it is vinified in red, with maceration lasting 8-10 days in stainless steel tanks. It is then aged partly in barriques and partly in Slavonian oak<br />casks, but only for 6 months and no longer, in order to preserve the fruity notes typical of the variety.<br /><br />Analytical data: -Alcohol:13,00%vol-Total acidity: 5 g/l-Net dry extract: 29 g/l-Residual sugar: dry-Contains sulphites<br /><br />Organoleptic characteristics: Intense ruby red wine, with marked and lively purple edges when young. The bouquet is clean, distinctly fruity with hints of raspberry and<br />blackberry and berries, such as raspberry, in the initial period; later, as it matures, the bouquet is enriched with new sensations, becoming ethereal, very broad and at the<br />same time personal. In the mouth it reveals a balanced tannicity, accompanied by a full and continuous texture. The taste is velvety, enveloping, full-bodied and austere.<br /><br />Serving suggestions: 'Tonco de Pontesel' from Trentino, venison and polenta, veal stew, mixed grilled meats.<br /><br />Serving temperature: 16-18°C<br />
