Bruno Paillard Blanc de...

Extra-Brut Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru<br />100% Chardonnay<br /><br />Production Area: Reims<br />Soil: limestone<br />Harvest: manual<br />Vinification: very old vinification method in which fermentation in the bottle is less powerful than in a classic champagne<br />Ageing: 50 months on the lees, plus a minimum of 8 months after disgorgement. The delicacy of its effervescence makes it possible to tame the natural minerality of the<br />Grand Cru, thus offering creamy and lively sensations.<br />Colour: pale gold, brilliant with green, almost silvery reflections. Very fine perlage and light mousse<br />Bouquet: The first scents are iodine and saline, followed by citrus notes of green lemon and white flowers. With oxygenation, notes of almond and toasted bread emerge.<br />Taste: the attack is lively, with notes ranging from citrus to white berry fruits, to a chalky minerality. Ample and creamy finish<br />Bitterness: 5 g/l<br />Format: 0.75 l bottle<br />Alcoholic Grade: 12% vol<br />

Franciacorta Ris. Dosage...

Franciacorta Ris. Dosage...

DENOMINATION<br />Franciacorta Riserva.<br /><br />GRAPE VARIETY<br />100% pure Pinot Noir.<br /><br />VINEYARDS OF ORIGIN<br />3 Pinot Noir vineyards on the 'Belvedere' estate, located in the Municipality of Iseo, at an altitude of 466 metres above sea level, on the hills bordering the lake to the south.<br /><br />AVERAGE YIELD PER HECTARE<br />6,400 kilograms of grapes, equivalent to 3,200 litres of wine (wine yield: 50%).<br /><br />VINIFICATION AND PROCESSING<br />The Vintage Collection Dosage Zéro Noir is the result of careful selection of the Pinot Noir grapes, first in the vineyard and then in the cellar, and of skilful vinification carried<br />out with full respect for our know-how. The grapes, freshly harvested by hand in small crates, are traced by vineyard of origin and cooled. Each bunch is selected by expert<br />eyes and hands. The berry has a colourless pulp but a black skin: in order to create the base for Dosage Zero Noir, it is essential that the juice, the must extracted remains<br />white or slightly pink. This is why pressing is carried out strictly at low pressure, so that the skin remains intact and does not lose its colour. The must thus obtained<br />ferments in small oak barrels. In order to seek maximum aromatic complexity and expressive power, without losing elegance, the elevage in barrels lasts only 5 months. A<br />pair of flying tanks allows the wine to be transferred by gravity from the small barrels to the ageing tanks. Six months after the harvest, the three base wines from the three<br />vineyards of origin are blended so that the proportion between delicacy, nervousness, vinosity and aroma is optimal. The Pinot Noir imparts its complex aromas of red fruits<br />to the wine and gives it body, persistence in the mouth and longevity. The magic of its terroir, combined with the skills of the men, have resulted in a wine of exceptional<br />purity. To reach its maximum qualitative expression and to develop the characteristic aromatic profile that makes it unique, 8 years of ageing are required. A Franciacorta<br />rightly ennobled by the 'Riserva' classification. The dégorgement takes place in the absence of oxygen, using a unique system invented and patented by Ca' del Bosco.<br />This avoids oxidative shocks and further additions of sulphites. It makes our Franciacorta wines purer, more pleasant and longer-lived. So that this 'blanc de noir' can<br />express itself with great personality and convey the typicality of the terroir from which it was born, we have chosen not to add any liqueur at disgorgement. Each packaged<br />bottle is uniquely marked to ensure traceability.<br /><br />AGEING ON THE LEES<br />8 years and 5 months.<br /><br />DOSAGE AT DISGORGEMENT<br />No addition of liqueur.<br /><br />ANALYTICAL DATA AT BOTTLING<br />Alcohol 12.5% vol.; pH 3.10; Total acidity 6.00 grams/litre; Volatile acidity 0.26 grams/litre.<br /><br />SULPHITES<br />Total sulphur dioxide less than 51 milligrams/litre (maximum legal limit: 185 milligrams/litre).<br />

In accordance with the Ca' del Bosco method, the grapes, harvested by<br />hand in small crates, are promptly codified and cooled in cold rooms.<br />Each bunch is selected by expert eyes and hands, and then benefits from our exclusive 'bunch spa'. A special system of washing and hydromassage of the bunches,<br />using three soaking tubs and a system for complete drying. The base wines are obtained exclusively from first-pressing musts. Alcoholic fermentation takes place<br />exclusively in small oak barrels made from selected woods and matured for at least 3 years. Here it remains on its lees for a further 6 months, also carrying out malolactic<br />fermentation. No compromises, no concessions: only the wine from the best barrels, from the 15 base wines of origin, is tapped to give rise to Annamaria Clementi. A pair of<br />flying tanks transfers it by gravity from the barrels to the blending tank. A very long refinement in contact with the yeasts, lasting more than 8 years, determines its unique<br />profile. An absolute Franciacorta. The dégorgement takes place in the absence of oxygen, using a unique system designed and patented by Ca' del Bosco. This avoids<br />oxidative shocks and further additions of sulphites. It makes our Franciacorta wines purer, more pleasant and longer-lived. Lastly, each packaged bottle is uniquely marked<br />to ensure traceability.<br />

Trento DOC Altemasi Graal...

Trento DOC Altemasi Graal...

Altemasi Riserva Graal 2013<br />TRENTO DOC CLASSIC METHOD<br />An elegant classic sparkling wine Riserva Millesimato that Cavit produces only with grapes from great vintages. Graal derives from medieval Latin with the meaning of<br />container, this name gained notoriety in the cycle of King Arthur's novels because it was associated with the cup used by Jesus during the Last Supper.<br /><br />Production area: The highest and most suitable hilly areas for sparkling wines in Trentino (Colline di Trento, Altopiano di Brentonico and Valledei Laghi).

Towards the end of<br />August, thunderstorms cooled the days and led to sudden drops in temperature at night. These sudden changes in temperature delayed the ripening process, postponing<br />the start of the harvest until 10 September.<br />Vinification and ageing: Manual harvesting into boxes preceded the traditional soft pressing of the perfectly ripe grapes, with separation of selected fractions of the must,<br />which fermented at a controlled temperature in stainless steel and barriques.frothing took place in May, after a period of maturation of the base wine.the first disgorgement<br />took place 68 months after tirage.<br />Analytical data:<br />Alcohol: 12.50% vol.<br />Total acidity: 6 g/l<br />Dry extract: 22 g/l<br />Residual sugars: 5 g/l<br />Contains sulphites<br />Organoleptic characteristics: White mousse with fine and continuous perlage; straw yellow colour with greenish reflections. Fine and intense bouquet with notes of apple<br />and citrus fruits, accompanied by hints of minerals, candied fruit and pastries. Fresh and balanced in the mouth. An important acidity highlights the texture and backbone<br />that support the long persistence and elegance of the wine: Roasted fish, white meat, cheese and stuffed pasta.<br />Serving temperature: 8 -10°C<br />

Sp. Kett.class. Rosè VSQPRD...

Grape varieties: Pinot Nero/Chardonnay<br />Growing region: Medium-high hills in the Überetsch and Unterland regions<br />Altitude: 450-750 metres above sea level<br />Soil type: predominantly loose calcareous soils, with good clay content and normal occurrence of organic matter<br />Vine training system: pergola and espalier<br />Alcohol content: 12.50 % vol.<br />Serving temperature: 6-8°C<br /><br />Product description: Rosé vinification of the Pinot Nero grapes, which make up the largest part of the cuvée, with short maceration of the skins followed by soft pressing,<br />also reserved for the Chardonnay grapes, which come from areas particularly suited to sparkling wines. Fermentation takes place separately for both grape varieties at a<br />controlled temperature of 15°-16°C. After blending to form the cuvée, the tirage liqueur is added to the base wine in spring, so that the second fermentation takes place in<br />the bottle at a cellar temperature of 11°-12°C, during which the wine is left on its lees for at least 22 months before being degorgéed and put on the market.<br />Organoleptic characteristics: With a pale pink colour and peachy reflections, fine and persistent perlage, it expresses fruity notes of raspberry and sweet spices, enveloped<br />by pleasant scents of yeast. On the palate, it unfolds elegantly and dynamically with the delicate freshness and fine creaminess that lingers on the aromas of small forest<br />fruits and herbs.Gastronomic recommendationsSeductive as an aperitif, a good companion for starters with fish, especially pink ones such as salmon, crab and prawn, it<br />gives its best to the whole menu with sophisticated seafood dishes. Interesting with oriental cuisine and spicy dishes in general.<br />

Sp. 1919 Riserva Extrabrut...

Alto Adige - South Tyrol DOC<br />Grape variety: Chardonnay 60%, Pinot Nero 40%<br />Growing region: High slopes in the Überetsch and medium slopes in the Unterland<br />Altitude: 400 - 700 m. above sea level<br />Soil type: Skeleton-rich clayey limestone soils with a good proportion of organic matter<br />Ripening system: pergola and trellis<br />Plant density: 3,300 - 3,500 vines per hectare for pergola, 5,000 - 6,000 for espalier<br />Harvest date: First half of September<br />Alcohol content: 13.00 % vol.<br />Serving temperature: 6 - 8 °C<br /><br />Product descriptionThe grapes of the two varieties come from medium and high slope vineyards, whose cultivation produces an average yield of 90 quintals per hectare.<br />After harvesting, they rest at night in a cold cell, are then gently pressed and the pre-fermentation must is carefully and selectively vinified. Part of the Chardonnay (about<br />20%) is fermented and aged in barriques, while the remaining Chardonnay and Pinot Nero ferment separately in stainless steel at a controlled temperature of 14-16°C and<br />then refine on their lees until the following spring. The blending of the respective wines (Chardonnay from the wood and Chardonnay and Pinot Nero from the stainless steel)<br />then takes place before the addition of the tirage liqueur, bottling and storage in the cellar at a temperature of 10-12°C for the second fermentation and an average yeast time<br />of at least 60 months. After disgorgement, the sparkling wine refines on the bottle for a further three months before being released for sale.Organoleptic characteristicsPale<br />straw yellow colour with golden reflections, imbued with a very fine and persistent perlage. The bouquet is wide and complex, with sensual notes ranging from candied citrus<br />and ripe fruit to engaging aromas of dried fruit and spices. The palate is at once supple and vibrant, with incisive acidity and an underlying mineral note. The carbonic acid<br />sets the rhythm of the dancing aromas that oscillate between the fragrance of fruits and the sensuality of pastries.Gastronomic recommendationsThe finesse-rich bouquet,<br />the dynamic perlage and the flavour complexity make it a sparkling wine that can accompany an entire menu and is particularly effective with flavour-intensive dishes, e.g.<br />with firm-fleshed fish (pork). For example, with firm-fleshed fish (tuna or heavy fish) and/or special preparation (fried, grilled, marinated) and/or seasoned with aromatic herbs.<br />Because of its spiciness, it must be tasted with spicy oriental or South American dishes with a clear spiciness.<br />

Champagne Roederer Carte...

Champagne Roederer Carte...

Bottle: 0.75 l<br />Characteristics<br />Carte Blanche is a champagne with a very traditional style due to its higher dosage, called 'demi-sec'. This style of wine-making was very popular and appreciated at the<br />end of the 19th century, particularly in certain northern European countries. Carte Blanche is therefore made from Brut Premier, to which more sugar is added at the time of<br />disgorging. The dosage gives the wine a rich, creamy and ample structure, contrasting with its freshness.<br />Grape varieties:<br />40% Pinot Noir<br />40% Chardonnay (of which 20% vinified in wood)<br />20% Meunier<br />Vinification:<br />Carte Blanche benefits from 3 years' cellar ageing, to which a 6-month rest period is added after disgorgement to perfect its maturity.<br />The dosage is 38 g/l.<br />It carries out a partial malolactic fermentation.<br />Tasting notes:<br />Carte Blanche reveals a range of sweet, ripe fruits (baked apple), intense floral notes (broom) and hints of warm, sugary almonds reminiscent of almond cream. The high<br />dosage is well balanced by both the wine's freshness and the long duration of disgorgement.<br />

BRUT PREMIER<br />Characteristics<br />Always on the borderline between aperitif wine and wine for the whole meal, Brut Premier asserts its fresh style: direct, precise and juicy at the same time.<br /><br />Brut Premier is produced each year, seeking the same balance between freshness and pleasure: it is both elegant and rich, youthful and mature, with a very particular<br />structure, on the borderline between an aperitif wine and a wine for the whole meal. Every year it is assembled and recreated with patience, starting from the strength of the<br />last vintage (the base), which must be softened, patinated and tamed with care so as never to lose its peculiarities! It is the reserve wines, aged for individual parcels for up<br />to 10 years in French oak barrels, that give Brut Premier its unmistakable character. It is a meticulous work, involving 200 to 300 different lots: the wines, the vines, the crus,<br />the vintages blend in a harmonious and delicious way so that everything changes but remains the same!<br />Grape varieties:<br />40% Pinot Noir, 40% Chardonnay of which 10% vinified in wood (oak barrels) and 20% Meunier.<br />Vinification:<br />Brut Premier benefits from an average of 3 years of ageing in the cellar, to which is added a rest period of 6 months after disgorging, to perfect its maturity.<br />The dosage is 9 g/l.<br />Tasting notes:<br />A bright yellow wine with golden hues and a very dynamic effervescence. The nose has aromas of candied citrus fruits (lemon) with notes of peel, acidulous, combined with<br />the sweetness of toasted hazelnut, acacia flowers in full bloom. The palate is rich, fluid, round and fresh. The attack is centred on juicy, direct, dense fruit, pure but<br />characterised by sweetness, prolonged by a savoury freshness that gives it a remarkable mineral precision, an elegance without excess. The sensation is delicate, fluid,<br />consistent and with a particular immediacy!<br />
