Spumante D'Asti BERA 2024...
The grapes used to produce this finely aromatic Asti spumante come from Moscato bianco vineyards on soil rich in limestone. The continuous 'perlage' and persistent<br />foam are a prelude to the ample and intense perfume reminiscent of orange blossom and sage. The sweet and inviting flavour is tempered by a stimulating acidity. Ideal<br />with dessert, the wine of the party, as an aperitif and for any other occasion to remember.<br /><br />TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION:<br />Vineyard exposure: east-south to south-west, with rows oriented to take full advantage of the sun's action on leaves and bunches.<br />Soil composition: clayey-tufaceous soil rich in limestone, which enhances the finesse and aromaticity of the wines, very important for this grape variety.<br />Vine density: nr. 4000/5000 vines per hectare from 5 to 40 years.<br />Type of training: low plant with simple guyot, tending to bring the leafy part upwards, in order to expose the bunches to the sun's action and encourage photosynthesis on<br />the leaves. A maximum of 8/9 fruit buds are left.<br />Harvest: 1st or 2nd decade of September, picked by hand.<br /><br />ORGANOLEPTIC DATA SHEET:<br />Denomination: Asti DOCG<br />Grape variety: White Muscat<br />Colour: more or less deep straw yellow colour.<br />Perlage: fine and persistent.<br />Bouquet: rich and intense fragrant aroma of Muscat grapes mixed with the scent of yeast and floral notes.<br />Taste: delicately sweet flavour, in harmony with the right acidity, moderate alcohol content and enlivened by the development of the mousse.<br />Serving suggestions: Serve chilled, 6-8°C on dessert, with various pastries, as an aperitif, as a thirst quencher at any time of day, but especially on any festive occasion.<br />

Opus One 2021 California...
The winter of 2017 ended a five-year drought with January recording the most rainfall in over 20 years. The abundant rainfall continued into March, causing a modest<br />delay in budbreak, and pushing bloom back by two weeks. Increased soil moisture allowed for healthy vine growth and development. The summer, in turn, was warm and<br />punctuated by occasional heat waves. Despite Mother Nature's variability, favorable weather in August provided optimal conditions for fruit development and maturation.<br />Superb flavors and excellent ripening led to an earlier than expected harvest, which commenced on the 5th of September.<br /><br />The Opus One 2017 offers a harmonious aromatic balance of rich dark fruit, stems of roses, and earthy forest floor. The juicy entry offers a round, silky mouthfeel with just<br />enough acidity to complement the satin texture. This seductive wine shows flavors of black cassis, black cherry and a hint of cocoa powder. The fine-grained, plush tannins<br />evolve into a long, supple finish. A supremely age-worthy wine, it will delight now and for many years to come.<br /><br />Varietals: Cabernet Sauvignon 80%, Petit Verdot 9%, Cabernet Franc 5%, Merlot 5% and Malbec 1%<br /><br />Skin Contact: 20 days<br /><br />Barrel Aging: 17 months in new French oak<br />

Praeclarus Brut Rosé 750ml
Praeclarus Brut<br />Blanc de Blancs South Tyrol DOC<br /><br /><br />Perfumed South Tyrolean joie de vivre. Elegance, freshness, harmony and complexity. Animating and seductive. Refreshing and lively.<br />Brilliant yellow with golden reflections. Intense and particularly fine, velvety bouquet of almond blossom, peach and apricot, with hints of fresh hazelnut and bread crust.<br />Very fine and long-lasting perlage.<br />Terroir:<br />The Chardonnay grapes are rooted in vineyards above St. Pauls between 300 and 500 m above sea level on the calcareous dolomite rock of the Mendel mountain range<br />with sand and clay deposits.

Gentle whole bunch pressing. Maturation of the base wine in large wooden barrels for several months, followed by traditional bottle<br />fermentation and 40 months of maturation on the fine lees at a naturally constant temperature in the historic bunker.<br />Recommended with: Classic as an aperitif.<br />Alcohol: 12,5 % vol.<br />Ingredients: contains sulphites<br />
