Franciacorta Brut Saten...
Satèn is the most delicate and elegant Franciacorta. Produced only in the best vintages, it is made from 100% Chardonnay grapes harvested in the high hillside vineyards.<br />The selection of the grapes is meticulous, to say the least, as is the slow maturation in small white oak barrels. Once assembled, the cu-vée is aged in the cellar for a<br />minimum of 4 years. The abundant mousse, the very fine perlage and the golden straw colour announce enchanting and suave aromas of pink flowers, ripe citrus fruits and<br />noisettes. The fine mouthfeel follows suit, it is soft and creamy, perfectly balanced between ripe touches and fresh sensations.<br /><br />Grapes Chardonnay 100%<br />Training system Guyot<br />Planting density 5000 vines/ha<br />Yield100 quintals/ha<br />Average age of vines 25 years<br />Harvest period End of August, beginning of September<br />Ageing 65% pièces, 35% inox<br />Dosage 7 g/l<br />Acidity 6.7<br />

Franciacorta Extra Brut Pas...
An idea that rises to the sky. This cuvée symbolises purity, energy, freshness and transformation, like the clouds that enchant as they pass. Pas Operé, a blend of<br />Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, is the result of a rigorous vineyard selection process, so much so that it only comes from the historic plots that are over 30 years old and have a<br />predominantly southeastern exposure. The choice of no less than 40 vintage selections aims to define an essential, refined and elegant expression, without compromise. A<br />cuvée, of course, designed to last and evolve over time, as immediately expressive as it is long-lived. An exuberant white mousse is accompanied by a perlage of<br />unparalleled persistence and finesse, while the aromas are immediately complex, even in their essentiality.<br /><br />Grapes Chardonnay 75%, Pinot Noir 25%.<br />Training system Guyot<br />Planting density 5000 vines/ha<br />Yield 100 quintals/ha<br />Average age of vines 30 years<br />Harvest period End of August, beginning of September<br />Ageing 45% pièces, 55% inox<br />Dosage < 2 g/l<br />Acidity 7.0<br />

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...
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 />
