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 />

Tancredi 2017<br />DENOMINATION: Red - Terre Siciliane IGT.<br />GRAPES: Cabernet Sauvignon, Nero d'Avola; the blend is completed with Tannat and other grapes.<br />PRODUCTION AREA: South-western Sicily, Contessa Entellina estate and surrounding areas.<br />SOILS AND CLIMATE: Altitude from 200 to 400 m above sea level; hilly terrain; clay loam soils with sub-alkaline reaction (pH from 7.5 to 7.9), rich in nutrients (potassium,<br />magnesium, calcium, iron, manganese, zinc) and total limestone from 20 to 35%. Mild winters; dry, windy summers with large temperature differences between day and<br />night.<br />VINEYARD: counter-espalier training with spurred cordon pruning, leaving 6 to 8 buds per plant. Plant density from 4,500 to 6,000 plants per hectare with yields of about<br />50-60 quintals/ha.<br />YEAR: Contessa Entellina recorded 555 mm of rain in 2017, which is slightly below the average* (661 mm) for this area. The rainfall was concentrated mainly in the autumn<br />and winter and therefore, in June and July, relief irrigation was carried out; the vines were thus able to complete their vegetative-productive cycle in a regular manner.<br />Temperatures, particularly between July and August, were higher than the seasonal averages, which led to an advance of 1-2 weeks in the ripening periods of all the varieties<br />grown. During this period of the summer, the good temperature fluctuations between day and night gave healthy grapes with excellent aromatic and phenolic ripening. In<br />addition, there was a drop in quantity of around 15% compared to the company average. Thanks to careful management of agronomic practices and vinification, the quality of<br />the vintage is certainly positive: ideal phenolic ripening gave fine and elegant reds. * The rainfall figures are calculated from 1 October to 30 September of the following year;<br />** The average is calculated from the 2003 harvest)<br />HARVEST: Manual harvesting in boxes with careful selection of the grapes in the vineyard. Harvesting of the grapes destined for Tancredi began in the last ten days of<br />August with the Nero d'Avola followed by the harvesting of the Tannat and Cabernet Sauvignon in the first ten days of September.<br />WINE-MAKING: On receipt at the winery, the bunches are selected on the vibrating table and then the grapes are destemmed using a latest-generation destemming<br />machine that rejects green and overripe grapes. Fermentation in stainless steel tanks with maceration on the skins for about 14 days at a temperature of 28°-30° C.<br />Maturation for 13-14 months in French oak barriques (new and second passage) and at least 14 months in bottle.<br />ANALYTICAL DATA: alcohol 13,66 % vol., total acidity: 5,5 g/l., pH: 3,65<br />TASTING NOTES (12/02/2020): With an intense ruby red colour, Tancredi 2017 combines notes of ripe red fruit (currant and plum) and balsamic (eucalyptus) with delicate<br />hints of cocoa and sweet tobacco. On the palate it has an excellent structure with important and perfectly integrated tannins; a fresh drink with a very long retro-olfactory<br />persistence.<br />LONGEVITY: over 20 years.<br />FOOD &amp; WINE: With steak, signature burgers and game; also excellent on fillet of beef with mushrooms.

This wine represents his elegance and 'revolutionary' ambition. The label features an illustration by artist Stefano Vitale who dedicated the work to Giacomo<br />Rallo, visionary captain of Donnafugata. Contessa's winery is there, in the clouds as if it were a mirage. Above right, the beloved village of Sambuca di Sicilia where some of<br />the vineyards that contribute to the Tancredi blend are located. They are all there, the places where the memory of the man and his dreams come true remains indelible.<br />FIRST VINTAGE: 1990.<br />

Storica d'Uve 5cl Pocket Cane<br /><br />The care taken in distilling the best grapes makes this brandy incomparable. And it cannot be missed on the most important occasions in the life of a connoisseur who<br />demands products with a fine, intense bouquet, a rounded flavour and a long persistence in the mouth.<br /><br />The healthy, ripe grapes are first destemmed and then placed in stainless steel fermenters. Alcoholic fermentation is carefully monitored to promote the best conditions<br />because the product of this will fundamentally condition the aromatic charge of the distillate. Distillation is carried out in a discontinuous plant with eight copper stills, using<br />direct steam. It is carried out within a short time of the end of alcoholic fermentation to preserve the freshness of the aromatic composition. Maturation in stainless steel<br />tanks for a maximum of three to four months to maintain the fragrance of the aromas. The 'transformation' to the final alcohol content (42°) is done by dilution with water and<br />cold filtration, at a temperature that guarantees the preservation of the predominant fruity component.<br /><br />Colourless, clear and crystalline spirit with a fragrant and delicate bouquet. Its aftertaste is harmonious and fine.<br /><br />Typology: fruit brandy<br />Alcoholic degree: 42% vol.<br />Raw materials: grapes<br />Serving temperature: 18°C<br />
