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 />

Fonseca Guimaraens BIN 27...
Bin 27 shares the heritage and style of the great Fonseca Vintage Ports, as well as much of their depth and character.<br /><br />Full Bodied & Fruity<br /><br />Tasting note<br />Bin 27 shares the heritage and style of the great Fonseca Vintage Ports, as well as much of their depth and character.<br />However it is bottled when ready to drink and can be served by the glass directly from the bottle. Blended for consistency of character and quintessentially Fonseca in<br />style, this reserve blend provides reliable and affordable value.<br />Deep youthful ruby colour. Intense rich fruity nose crammed with pure blackberry, cassis, cherry and plum aromas interwoven with notes of spice.<br />The palate full bodied and round, with a smooth velvety texture balanced by firm mouth filling tannins. The juicy black fruit flavours linger into the rich luscious finish.<br />Pairing suggestions<br />The rich black fruit flavours of Bin 27 are a perfect match for chocolate and berry fruit dishes. A chocolate fondant with strawberries makes a deliciously hedonistic<br />combination with Bin 27, the rich creamy chocolate and luscious ripe strawberries blending seductively with the blackcurrant and cherry fruitiness of the wine.

At the time the market for Port was undergoing a profound change. Consumers were becoming more<br />knowledgeable and demanding in their choice of wine. No longer content with the simple young Ports that until then had accounted for much of consumption, they sought<br />more sophisticated and distinctive wines both to enjoy at home and when dining out.<br />

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 />
