Franciacorta Ris. Dosage...

Franciacorta Ris. Dosage...

DENOMINATION<br />Franciacorta Riserva.<br /><br />GRAPE VARIETY<br />100% pure Pinot Noir.<br /><br />VINEYARDS OF ORIGIN<br />3 Pinot Noir vineyards on the 'Belvedere' estate, located in the Municipality of Iseo, at an altitude of 466 metres above sea level, on the hills bordering the lake to the south.<br /><br />AVERAGE YIELD PER HECTARE<br />6,400 kilograms of grapes, equivalent to 3,200 litres of wine (wine yield: 50%).<br /><br />VINIFICATION AND PROCESSING<br />The Vintage Collection Dosage Zéro Noir is the result of careful selection of the Pinot Noir grapes, first in the vineyard and then in the cellar, and of skilful vinification carried<br />out with full respect for our know-how. The grapes, freshly harvested by hand in small crates, are traced by vineyard of origin and cooled. Each bunch is selected by expert<br />eyes and hands. The berry has a colourless pulp but a black skin: in order to create the base for Dosage Zero Noir, it is essential that the juice, the must extracted remains<br />white or slightly pink. This is why pressing is carried out strictly at low pressure, so that the skin remains intact and does not lose its colour. The must thus obtained<br />ferments in small oak barrels. In order to seek maximum aromatic complexity and expressive power, without losing elegance, the elevage in barrels lasts only 5 months. A<br />pair of flying tanks allows the wine to be transferred by gravity from the small barrels to the ageing tanks. Six months after the harvest, the three base wines from the three<br />vineyards of origin are blended so that the proportion between delicacy, nervousness, vinosity and aroma is optimal. The Pinot Noir imparts its complex aromas of red fruits<br />to the wine and gives it body, persistence in the mouth and longevity. The magic of its terroir, combined with the skills of the men, have resulted in a wine of exceptional<br />purity. To reach its maximum qualitative expression and to develop the characteristic aromatic profile that makes it unique, 8 years of ageing are required. A Franciacorta<br />rightly ennobled by the 'Riserva' classification. The dégorgement takes place in the absence of oxygen, using a unique system invented and patented by Ca' del Bosco.<br />This avoids oxidative shocks and further additions of sulphites. It makes our Franciacorta wines purer, more pleasant and longer-lived. So that this 'blanc de noir' can<br />express itself with great personality and convey the typicality of the terroir from which it was born, we have chosen not to add any liqueur at disgorgement. Each packaged<br />bottle is uniquely marked to ensure traceability.<br /><br />AGEING ON THE LEES<br />8 years and 5 months.<br /><br />DOSAGE AT DISGORGEMENT<br />No addition of liqueur.<br /><br />ANALYTICAL DATA AT BOTTLING<br />Alcohol 12.5% vol.; pH 3.10; Total acidity 6.00 grams/litre; Volatile acidity 0.26 grams/litre.<br /><br />SULPHITES<br />Total sulphur dioxide less than 51 milligrams/litre (maximum legal limit: 185 milligrams/litre).<br />

Appellation<br />Franciacorta Riserva.<br /><br />Grape varieties<br />Chardonnay 65%, Pinot Blanc 20%, Pinot Noir 15%.<br /><br />Vineyards of origin<br />10 Chardonnay vineyards, with an average age of 32 years, located in the communes of Erbusco, Adro, Corte Franca, Iseo and Passirano.<br />2 Pinot Bianco vines, with an average age of 27 years, located in the commune of Passirano.<br />3 Pinot Nero vines, with an average age of 33 years, located in the municipalities of Erbusco, Iseo and Passirano.<br /><br /><br />Average yield per hectare<br />7,700 kilograms of grapes, equivalent to 3,000 litres of wine obtained from only<br />must only (wine yield: 39%).<br /><br />Vinification<br />Annamaria Clementi is the fruit of the quest for excellence, both in the vineyard and in the cellar. In accordance with the Ca' del Bosco method, the grapes, harvested by<br />hand in small crates, are promptly codified and cooled in cold rooms.<br />Each bunch is selected by expert eyes and hands, and then benefits from our exclusive 'bunch spa'. A special system of washing and hydromassage of the bunches,<br />using three soaking tubs and a system for complete drying. The base wines are obtained exclusively from first-pressing musts. Alcoholic fermentation takes place<br />exclusively in small oak barrels made from selected woods and matured for at least 3 years. Here it remains on its lees for a further 6 months, also carrying out malolactic<br />fermentation. No compromises, no concessions: only the wine from the best barrels, from the 15 base wines of origin, is tapped to give rise to Annamaria Clementi. A pair of<br />flying tanks transfers it by gravity from the barrels to the blending tank. A very long refinement in contact with the yeasts, lasting more than 8 years, determines its unique<br />profile. An absolute Franciacorta. The dégorgement takes place in the absence of oxygen, using a unique system designed and patented by Ca' del Bosco. This avoids<br />oxidative shocks and further additions of sulphites. It makes our Franciacorta wines purer, more pleasant and longer-lived. Lastly, each packaged bottle is uniquely marked<br />to ensure traceability.<br />

Trento DOC Altemasi Graal...

Altemasi Riserva Graal 2013<br />TRENTO DOC CLASSIC METHOD<br />An elegant classic sparkling wine Riserva Millesimato that Cavit produces only with grapes from great vintages. Graal derives from medieval Latin with the meaning of<br />container, this name gained notoriety in the cycle of King Arthur's novels because it was associated with the cup used by Jesus during the Last Supper.<br /><br />Production area: The highest and most suitable hilly areas for sparkling wines in Trentino (Colline di Trento, Altopiano di Brentonico and Valledei Laghi).

Whisky ARDBEG Corryvreckan...

Whisky ARDBEG Corryvreckan...

Ardbeg Corryvreckan<br /><br />Ardbeg Corryvreckan takes its name from the famous whirlpool that lies to the north of Islay, where only the bravest souls dare to venture. Swirling aromas and torrents of<br />deep, peaty, peppery taste lurk beneath the surface of this beautifully balanced dram. Like the whirlpool itself, Corryvreckan is not for the faint-hearted! Awarded The World's<br />Best Single Malt in 2010 by the World Whiskies Awards.<br /><br />Non chill-filtered at 57.1% ABV<br /><br />Color: Rich Amber<br />Aroma: Heady, intense and powerful. Swirl the glass and dip your nose into the torrents of tarry ropes, creosote and linseed oil rising from deep within the vortex. A collision<br />of waxy dark chocolate, warm blackcurrants and muscovado sugar pulls you under its spell with a burst of plump cherries and earthy pine needles leaping from its depths.<br />From salty seasoning comes a briny character with tangy crisp seaweed and smoky bacon swirling on the surface with hints of sweet vanilla, spicy cloves and blueberries.<br />Surrender to its dangerous depths with the heady force of menthol, treacle and chilli sauce.<br /><br />Taste: Plunge into the whirlpool and torrents of taste well up on the palate; deep, peppery and chewy, bombarding the tongue. The first plunge brings forth chewy peppered<br />steak soaked in pepper sauce with the tang of crispy seaweed. As you descend deeper, encounter a mouthful of black tarry espresso coffee that coats the palate with rich<br />melted dark fruits (blackcurrants, blueberries and cherries) and bitter almonds. As the taste soaks in deeper, star anise and hickory dry out the palate before a surprise of<br />chalky effervescent violets fizz to the surface.<br /><br />Finish: Long, deep and remaining powerful into the finish with black tarry coffee, chocolate coated cherries and hot pepper sauce, the lingering memories of your mysterious<br />and daring journey into Corryvreckan.<br />

Whisky ARDBEG An Oa 46,6% 70cl

Whisky ARDBEG An Oa 46,6% 70cl

<br /><br />Ardbeg An Oa<br /><br />A welcome new addition to the Ultimate range. Ardbeg An Oa is singularly rounded, due in no small part to time spent in our newly established bespoke oak Gathering Vat<br />where whiskies from several cask types - including; sweet Pedro Ximenez; spicy virgin charred oak; and intense ex-bourbon casks, amongst others - familiarise themselves<br />with each other. The result is a dram with smoky power, mellowed by a delectable, smooth sweetness. Hallmark Ardbeg peat, dark chocolate and aniseed are wrapped in<br />smooth, silky butterscotch, black pepper and clove, before rising to an intense crescendo of flavour.<br /><br />Non chill-filtered with a strength of 46.6% ABV.<br /><br /><br />Color: Light Gold<br />Aroma: Rounded and smoky - like burning Applewood - with creamy toffee, aniseed, treacle and dates. A curious suggestion of juicy fruits, such as peach and banana. With<br />a drop of water, reminders of Ardbeg's classic fragrance - lime, pine resin, fennel, saddle soap and tar. A gentle waxiness, like fragrant candle wax, and hints of smoked<br />herbs. An Oa gives a final subtle reminder of the sea with briny notes and seaweed but always accompanied with creaminess.<br /><br />Taste: A smooth, creamy texture leads into a huge syrupy sweetness, flavours of milk chocolate, treacle toffee, aniseed, orange and smoky tea leaves. Gentle, sweet<br />spices (nutmeg &amp; cinnamon), some cigar smoke, and a very unusual flavour of grilled artichokes. Wood is always present in the spirit, gently nutty and reminiscent of a<br />carpenter's workshop. A long, sweet finish, with floral overtones, mint toffee and some gentle malty biscuit notes.<br /><br />Finish: Lingering, seductive, gentle yet intense, with flavours of aniseed, hickory and distant subtle smoke.<br />

Rich Turkish<br />coffee mingles with sappy pine resin, with honey-glazed ham lurking in the background. With water, more herbal top notes like vetiver and fennel captivate and pull you in,<br />while beguiling scents of aniseed, green apple and leather cause you to drop your guard. Out of nowhere, a sharp tang of smoke and a crack of fresh black pepper fire<br />warning shots across the senses.<br />Taste: Suddenly, a rich, explosive mouthfeel bursts forth with chocolate, creosote and tar. A powerful blast of eucalyptus thrashes about with antiseptic lozenges and<br />aniseed. The raw, smoky intensity gathers pace, before smoked bacon and savoury meats sink into the palate.<br />Finish: The long, salty mouthcoating finish retreats, with hints of cocoa and fudge slinking slowly away.<br />
