Lugana 2023 CA'DEI FRATI...

Lugana 2023 CA'DEI FRATI...

I Frati<br />Lugana Doc<br /><br />The wine that has made the company's image known and continues to do so. It has a direct link with its variety, Turbiana, our indigenous vine. Conceived to be consumed<br />during the year, it expresses its best side many years after bottling. In its youth it is fresh, linear and endowed with great finesse and elegance with delicate notes of white<br />flowers and balsamic, hints of apricot and almond. Time allows it to evolve, expressing its mineral notes with greater determination. The wine acquires its own complexity<br />with hints of iodine, spices and candied fruit. In the mouth it is capable of enveloping the whole palate thanks to an important savoury essence accompanied by lively and<br />exuberant acidity. When young, it is best served at a temperature of around 10 degrees, with cold or warm but delicate hors d'oeuvres and with boiled, steamed or grilled fish<br />dishes.<br />Technical data<br /><br />Grape varieties used: Turbiana 100%.<br />Soil composition: calcareous - clayey<br />Training system: Simple and double Guyot<br />Planting system: 2.30 x 0.70<br />Yield per hectare: 90 quintals<br />Type of vinification: steel<br />Malolactic: Not carried out<br />Ageing and development: in steel on fine lees for a minimum of 6 months, followed by 2 months in bottle<br />Alcohol content: 13%.<br />Total acidity: 6.40 g/L<br />Volatile acidity: 0.30 g/L<br />pH: 3.20<br />Dry extract: 21 g/L<br />

Lupicaia 2018 Castello del...

<br /><br />Denomination: I.G.T. Rosso Toscana (Lupicaia)<br />Producer: Gian Annibale Rossi di Medelana,Vittorio Piozzo di<br />Rosignano Rossi di Medelana<br />First vintage: 1993<br />Grapes: Cabernet Sauvignon, Petit Verdot<br />Analytical data: Alcohol degree: 14.50%.<br />Soil type: The soils are rich in iron minerals with the presence of stones and fossils. Facing the Mediterranean Sea, they benefit from a unique reflection of the sun, a<br />moderate breeze from the coast and the abundance of sunlight promotes unique ripening.<br /><br />Training system: Spurred Cordon<br />Planting density: 3,600 vines/Ha for old vineyards; 5,600 vines/Ha for new vineyards<br /><br />Climatic trend: 2016 was certainly one of the most regular vintages of the last decade. Rainfall met the vines' needs punctually: abundant in March, regular in May and June,<br />important at the end of July and, finally, a warm and sunny August and mid-September. Temperatures were optimal: a mild end to the winter that had caused concern was<br />then regularised by a tenably cool spring that slowed down the development of the bunches, which then benefited from the hot but not torrid summer, with significant<br />temperature swings. Cluster growth was regular and optimal, production was good and ripening was perfect.<br /><br />Harvest period: Harvesting was strictly by hand and took place for the Petit Verdot and Cabernet Sauvignon grapes from mid-September. After an initial selection in the<br />vineyard at the time of manual harvesting, the Lupicaia grapes are carefully selected a second time on arrival at the winery on the sorting table.<br /><br />Winemaking notes: After manual selection on the sorting table, the grapes are gently destemmed and pressed, taking care not to break the skin of the berries. Meticulous<br />alcoholic fermentation takes place in our stainless steel open-cap fermenters at a controlled temperature with maceration of the grapes for about 20 days. Daily dèlestages<br />allowed the perfect extraction of the bouquet<br />aromas and the right tannic balance, with an important structure that will allow for long ageing.<br /><br />Ageing: Ageing takes place in new French oak tonneaux for a period of about 22 months followed by further ageing in bottles before release.<br />

Brunello di Montalcino docg...

GIOVANNI NERI<br />BRUNELLO DI MONTALCINO DOCG<br /><br />Giovanni Neri's Brunello di Montalcino embodies tradition, production philosophy, the values of sustainability and typicality of the territory, experience and passion in the<br />vineyard and cellar. Fifty years after the purchase of the first vineyard, Giacomo, Giovanni and Gianlorenzo dedicate to the founder of Casanova di Neri a wine that is a great<br />expression of pure Sangiovese born mainly from a vineyard that boasts a marvellous exposure, splendid vines more than half a century old and exceptional soil. Giovanni<br />Neri creates another great scenario that once again combines the importance of tradition with our continuous quest for innovation.<br /><br /><br />NOTES OF GIOVANNI NERI<br /><br />It presents itself to the eye with a bright, brilliant red colour. Cherry aromas emerge on the nose. White flowers and blood orange emerge with a little airiness. The palate is<br />well balanced, creamy and releases the purity of red fruits. The finish is savoury and of great purity. The greatness of the 2019 vintage can be glimpsed but will be best<br />expressed after a few years of bottle ageing.<br /><br />VINTAGE NOTES<br />The winter was characterised by mild temperatures with average rainfall compared to previous years. A stable and sunny March and April were followed by an unusual May<br />with very low temperatures and abundant rainfall. All these factors contributed to delaying flowering and fruit set by a few days. June and July were warm and dry with high<br />peaks that allowed the initial vegetative delay to be recovered. Abundant spring water reserves and a warm and stable August allowed the grapes to ripen regularly.<br /><br /><br />AGEING PERIOD 30 months in casks - 22 months in bottles<br />ALCOHOL CONTENT 15%.<br />DRY EXTRACT (g/lt) 31.5<br />TOTAL ACIDITY 5.8<br />SERVING TEMPERATURE (°C) 16-17°<br />
