Tignanello 2019 750ml ANTINORI

Tignanello 2019 750ml ANTINORI

TIGNANELLO<br />Classification: Toscana IGT - Typical Geographical Indication<br />Vintage: 2019<br />Grapes: Sangiovese, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc<br /><br />Climate:The 2019 season in Chianti Classico was characterised by regular weather conditions, with a rather cold winter with little rainfall, and a cool and rainy early spring,<br />especially in April and May. The summer was warm, with no temperature extremes, and characterised by slightly above-average rainfall, which allowed the plants to grow<br />properly, both in terms of vegetation and bunches. Starting at the end of August and throughout September and October, the optimal climate allowed all the varieties grown<br />in the Tignanello vineyard to ripen perfectly. The grapes were harvested from the second ten days of September, beginning with the Sangiovese, until the Cabernet grapes<br />were picked on 16 October.<br /><br />Vinification and ageing: the climatic conditions of the harvest required, as usual, great care both in the vineyard during harvesting operations and in the cellar when the<br />grapes arrived, where sorting and initial processing were fundamental to achieving an optimal final result. During the fermentation process in truncated conical tanks, the<br />musts were macerated with extreme attention to the preservation of aromas, extraction of colour and management of the sweetness and elegance of the tannins. Drawing off<br />took place only after careful, daily tastings. Once the skins were separated from the wine, malolactic fermentation began in barriques to enhance the finesse and complexity<br />of the aromas. The ageing process took place in French and Hungarian oak barrels, partly new and partly second-passage, for a total period of approximately 14-16 months;<br />after an initial ageing in separate batches<br />these were assembled to complete the evolution in wood. The wine, made mainly from Sangiovese grapes and a small proportion of Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet<br />Franc, was aged for a further 12 months in bottle before being presented on the market.<br /><br />Alcohol content: 14% Vol.<br /><br />Historical data: Tignanello is produced exclusively from the vineyard of the same name located at Tenuta Tignanello on a 57-hectare south-west-facing site of limestone<br />origin with tuffaceous elements, at an altitude of between 350 and 400 metres above sea level. It was the first Sangiovese to be aged in barriques, the first modern red wine<br />blended with non-traditional varieties such as Cabernet, and among the first red wines in Chianti not to use white grapes. Tignanello, originally 'Chianti Classico Riserva<br />vigneto Tignanello' was first vinified from a single vineyard with the 1970 vintage, when it contained 20% Canaiolo and 5% Trebbiano and Malvasia, and was aged in small oak<br />barrels. With the 1971 vintage, it became a Tuscan table wine and was called Tignanello, and with the 1975 vintage, the white grapes were totally eliminated. Since 1982,<br />the composition has remained unchanged. Tignanello is only produced in the best vintages; it was not produced in 1972, 1973,1974, 1976, 1984, 1992 and 2002.<br /><br />Tasting notes: Tignanello 2019 has a ruby red colour. The nose is striking for its great complexity: notes of red fruit, strawberry and pomegranate, alternate with delicate<br />hints of apricot and peaches in syrup, accompanying elegant nuances of vanilla, dried flowers, chocolate and pleasant spicy sensations of nutmeg; notes of coffee, caramel<br />and Mediterranean herbs complete the bouquet. On the palate, it is enveloping and graceful, with silky, vibrant tannins that give the wine liveliness, savouriness and taste<br />persistence; the aftertaste is characterised by notes of roasted coffee and bitter cocoa.<br />

Champagne Roederer Cristal...

Champagne Roederer Cristal...

CRISTAL 2014<br /><br />A three-step climatic waltz with strong, sharp and decisive contrasts! A splendid, dry spring leading into a torrid June; a cool, rainy autumn summer; a warm, sunny and very<br />dry September... worthy of an August. The 'key' to this vintage lies in the soil and the work of the vine-growers: the chalk, which is rewarding because it drains better, in the<br />medium-low part of the hillside, has made it possible to eliminate the excess water of the summer and limit stagnation... our increasingly virtuous vine-growing practices are<br />fundamental, allowing us to go further in the search for balance in the grapes and ripening.<br />'Jean-Baptiste Lécaillon<br /><br />Golden, luminous and brilliant. Dynamic effervescence followed by an intense, perfumed bouquet of great purity. Citrus fruits and candied fruit combine with notes of harvest<br />and roasted almonds.<br />On the palate, the silky texture is amplified by a delicate effervescen perfectly integrated and deliciously elegant.<br />The purity and perfection of the ripe yellow fruits blend to the intense chalky freshness, typical of Cristal, palpable and savoury at the same time. Full-bodied and juicy on the<br />palate, defined and spiced by the partial ageing period in oak barrels.<br />Persistent and salacious in the finish.<br />

Champagne Blanc de Blancs...

Champagne Blanc de Blancs...

It was characterised by a three-cycle weather pattern, with sharp contrasts. After a splendid spring, dry and culminating in a torrid June, a cool and rainy summer followed;<br />September was hot, sunny and very dry. The 'key to the grape harvest' lies in the soils and the work of the winegrowers: chalk is a winner because it is more draining, and in<br />the hills it allowed excess summer water to be disposed of and the vigour to be contained. The work in the plots, with increasingly virtuous practices, allows the grapes to<br />reach balance and full maturity.<br /><br />Characteristics<br />Dosage: 8g/l<br />Grape varieties:<br />100% chardonnay 23% wood-aged wines<br /><br />NO MALOLACTIC FERMENTATION<br />Characteristics of the Cru:<br />Made exclusively from Côte des Blancs grapes.<br />CRU: Avize<br /><br />Tasting notes:<br />Brilliant gold in colour with green reflections, a soft, regular and slow perlage rises in the glass. There are pure, delicate and airy aromas with nuances of delicate flowers<br />(honeysuckle, jasmine), ripe citrus (cedar). With aeration, notes of iodine appear accompanied by warmer, sweeter notes of pastry. The palate is dense, finely spicy and<br />invigorating. The attack is fresh and energetic with citrus (orange), dried fruit and Madagascar vanilla. The bubble gently melts and gives way to a chalky freshness, revealing<br />a finish that is light and dusty at first glance, but surprises with a real final acceleration with fine tannins and spicy tones.<br />

Chianti clas. Ris. Fizzano...

Chianti Classico Gran Selezione Riserva di Fizzano<br /><br />Grape varieties<br />Sangiovese 90% minimum and<br />Colorino in variable % each year<br /><br />The Riserva di Fizzano, the winery's historic cru, already had the characteristics of the Gran Selezione even before the new appellation was created as part of the 'Chianti<br />Classico Revolution' operation. And perhaps it was precisely these wines already present in the territory, with their inimitable characteristics, that inspired the search for<br />and then the definition of a summit in the Chianti Classico quality pyramid at which to position them.<br />

Chardonnay Riserva DOC 2019...

Chardonnay Riserva DOC 2019...

Complex Chardonnays from high altitudes are a rarity, but that is precisely where the appeal lies for us. Troy means 'path' in the language of our ancestors. The name<br />illustrates our long journey of research and experimentation with this noble grape variety.<br /><br />The winter ended with abundant snow in the mountains. Warmer temperatures in March and April caused premature and rather uneven budding in the well-supplied soils. A<br />cool May then delayed the flowering. In humid and hot June, a high fungal disease pressure developed, which could be contained through sensitivity and a lot of careful<br />manual work. The rest of the summer was largely dry and was only interrupted by short, heavy thunderstorms. Two hot spells had practically no negative effects. A<br />significant drop in the lowest temperatures began in mid-August. High temperature differences between day and night characterised the weather throughout the harvest. The<br />harvest took place about 14 days later than in the previous year. The white wines of the 2019 vintage show an impressive freshness, Gewürztraminer are characterised by<br />particular elegance. The red wines present a lot of fruit and a lively tannin structure. <br /><br />Grape variety: Chardonnay<br />Yield: 38 hl/hectare<br />Altitude: 500 - 550 m<br />Soil: calcareous gravel and clay soil<br />Age of vines: around 25 years, stocking on Guyot and simple, open pergola<br />Exposure: south-east<br />Climate: extreme interplay between sunny days influenced by the Mediterranean climate and night hours influenced by cold downdrafts from the surrounding mountains<br />Harvest: Beginning of October<br />Alcohol: 14,0 % vol<br />Total acidity: 6.1 g/l<br />Residual sugar: &lt;2 g/l<br />
