Opus One 2017 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 delay in<br />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 punctuated<br />by occasional heat waves. Despite Mother Nature's variability, favorable weather in August provided optimal conditions for fruit development and maturation. Superb flavors<br />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 />

Gewürztraminer Passito DOP...
Vinification<br /><br />The grapes are harvested in September and left to dry for 4 months in a well-ventilated room. In December, the dried grapes are selected again. Drying results in a 2/3<br />weight loss, as well as a concentration of sugar, aromas, acidity and tannins. Due to the high sugar content, the yeast cannot carry out the fermentation completely and<br />thus a natural residual sweetness remains. After a fermentation of 6 weeks, a longer bottle fermentation takes place.<br />Tasting<br /><br />The 'Cashmere' Gewürztraminer Passito presents itself with a golden yellow colour with a light amber hue. Its bouquet is exquisite and intensely aromatic: dried apricots,<br />candied fruits, rose petals, a hint of orange and caramel. On the palate, the Passito is very concentrated, with a harmonious interplay between inviting sweetness and<br />refreshing acidity, elegant and of exquisite level.<br />

San Giovanni della Sala...
San Giovanni Della Sala<br />Orvieto DOC Classico Superiore<br /><br /><br />Climate: 2020 will be remembered as a tendentially dry year. The winter, almost completely devoid of rain, was dominated by temperatures that were not too cold. The<br />spring weather, which arrived slightly later than in previous years, was characterised by mild days and temperatures above seasonal averages, with the exception of a few<br />cooler periods at the beginning of April. Then, from June until almost mid-August, the warm and dry weather led to an early ripening of the grapes. A summer thunderstorm<br />towards the end of August refreshed the later varieties such as Grechetto and Procanico, ensuring that they reached a good degree of ripeness while maintaining freshness<br />and fragrance. The harvest of Grechetto, Viognier and Pinot Bianco for San Giovanni della Sala began around the last week of August and ended with the harvest of<br />Procanico towards the middle of September.<br /><br /><br />Vinification: on arrival at the winery, the grapes were vinified separately by variety to enhance the varietal characteristics. Part of the must underwent cold maceration,<br />remaining in contact with its skins for about 6 hours at a temperature of 10 °C, before being combined with the must obtained from the soft direct pressing of the grapes. The<br />must thus obtained was transferred to stainless steel tanks where alcoholic fermentation took place at a controlled temperature of 16 °C. The wine remained on its lees for a<br />few months to improve its structure, elegance and minerality until it was blended and bottled.<br /><br />Historical data: San Giovanni was born from the vineyards of the ancient Castello della Sala from the union of indigenous Grechetto and Procanico grapes with those of Pinot<br />Bianco and Viognier to tell the Orvieto Classico according to a new style. The first vintage of Castello della Sala Orvieto Classico was 1990.<br /><br />Tasting notes: San Giovanni della Sala has a light straw yellow colour with greenish reflections. On the nose, pleasant notes of tropical fruit combine with light mineral<br />sensations. On the palate it stands out for its balance between structure and freshness with good flavour and a pleasant persistence of yellow flesh fruit.<br /><br />Alcohol content: 12.0% Vol.<br />

Pian delle Vigne 2016...
Pian delle Vigne 2016<br />Classification DOCG<br />Vintage 2016<br /><br />Climate: The 2016 vintage was characterised by a winter with little rain and a mild spring. These climatic conditions favoured a slight anticipation of budding and flowering,<br />which was made up for by the fruit set, which took place regularly. The summer, which tended to be cooler than in 2015, was characterised by temperatures above the<br />seasonal average, particularly in July and August. The light rainfall during the month of September and the consequent drop in temperature allowed the grapes to complete<br />their ripening in an optimal manner, enhancing the freshness of the Sangiovese and giving the wine soft and balanced tannins.<br />Harvesting for Brunello di Montalcino took place at the end of September.<br /><br />Vinification: on arrival in the winery the grapes were destemmed and softly crushed and then transferred to stainless steel tanks where alcoholic fermentation took place.<br />Maceration lasted about fifteen days at a temperature of 28 °C. After malolactic fermentation, the wine was transferred to oak barrels of between 30 and 80 Hl where it began<br />its maturation in wood. After two years Pian delle Vigne left the large cask and began its long refinement in the bottle.<br /><br />Historical data: Tenuta Pian delle Vigne, located 6 km south-west of Montalcino, takes its name from the village of the same name, where there is a characteristic railway<br />station from the 19th century. The estate consists of 184 hectares, 65 of which are planted with vines, mainly exposed to the south-west at an altitude of about 130 metres<br />above sea level. Pian delle Vigne has always pursued the philosophy of using large casks, which preserve the extraordinary integrity of the Sangiovese fruit and give Brunello<br />its characteristic vibrant elegance. The winery has been owned by the Antinori family since 1995, the year of the first harvest of Pian delle Vigne Brunello di Montalcino<br />DOCG.<br /><br />Tasting notes: the wine has an intense ruby red colour. The nose is complex, with notes of ripe red fruit, reminiscent of cherries, well in harmony with floral scents. The<br />bouquet is completed by sensations of chocolate, tobacco, clove and both aromatic and balsamic herbs. A vintage, the 2016, capable of expressing great finesse and<br />elegance and to give the wine a good freshness accompanied by soft tannins and an excellent length of taste. Pleasant notes of spice and tobacco return on the finish.<br /><br />Alcohol content: 14% Vol.<br />
