Blauburgunder 2017...
BARTHENAU<br />VIGNA S. URBANO PINOT NOIR<br /><br />A Pinot Noir whose dark ruby-red colour already hints at its enormous concentration.<br />If the nose is still somewhat closed at first, it soon releases its aromas in the glass, which are reminiscent of the multi-faceted bouquet of classic Burgundies.<br />The enveloping scent of sour cherries and raspberries is underlined by delicate vanilla tones and fine spicy notes.<br />On the palate, it is very well balanced and convinces with its elegant acidity, well-integrated tannins and an impressively aromatic concentration.<br /><br />The Barthenau Vigna S. Urbano is an expression of our most valuable Cru site. It is located in the heart of the vineyards around our estate Barthenau near Mazon.<br />This Pinot Noir reflects the enormous potential of this unique site, where vines grow, some of which are more than 55 years old.<br /><br />Only the classification 'Vigna' guarantees the origin of a site wine in South Tyrol.<br />VSU<br />Hofstätter Classification<br /><br />Grape variety<br /><br />Pinot Noir<br />Soil<br /><br />Conglomerate of clay, limestone and porphyry soils.<br />Vinification<br /><br />After delivery, the majority of the grapes are lightly crushed and destemmed, 25% enter the fermentation barrel intact.

Masseto 2016 IGT Ornellaia...
2016<br />As is often the case in recent years, the winter of 2016 was characterised by unusually warm weather with heavy rainfall in February. Budding arrived on time in the last<br />week of March. The abundance of water in the soil and the warm weather in April favoured rapid and normal vegetative growth of the vines. In May, temperatures returned to<br />normal, slowing growth slightly and leading to flowering in the last week of May in dry, sunny weather, perfect for good fruit set. Summer temperatures were normal with very<br />little rain causing considerable water stress towards the end of the ripening phase. The usual mid-August storms were also absent, prolonging the water stress throughout<br />the early part of the harvest. Fortunately, the remarkably cool temperatures during the night allowed the vines to recover from the heat of the day. Maturation proceeded<br />smoothly with excellent phenolic potential and a balanced sugar/acid ratio. The harvest began on 24 August with the youngest vines. In September, the few rainfalls provided<br />the soil with sufficient water to complete the harvest in practically perfect conditions. The older vines of the 'Masseto centrale' benefited from this situation, continuing their<br />ripening until the third week of September. The last plots were harvested on 20 September.<br />TASTING NOTES: 2016 was a textbook year for Masseto, with a typically Tuscan coastal climate that saw a dry and sunny growing season, with plenty of sunshine and<br />just the right amount of rain for perfect ripeness. The 2016 has a particularly intense young colour, and on the nose the intense aroma of ripe dark fruit blends with subtle<br />notes of cocoa and spices. On the palate, the rich, dense structure of ripe, silky tannins is balanced by a sensual, vibrant fruit note and lively acidity that keeps the long<br />finish clean and full-bodied.<br />

Moratel CESCONI Biologico...
Moratel is a blend of four red grapes that we grow in two very distinct areas, both in terms of soil and climate. Lagrein is located in Pressano, while Teroldego, Merlot and<br />Cabernet grow in the vineyards in Valle dei Laghi.<br /><br />PRODUCTION AREA<br />The Lagrein vineyard is cultivated with a pergola system with a western exposure. It is the same vineyard that produces the grapes for our Pletter reserve, but in this case<br />the<br />However, in this case the vines are younger, with an average age of about 20 years. The climate is continental and the soil is composed of a sedimentary rock type<br />consisting of limestone and compact sandstone known as the Werfen strata. The Valle dei Laghi, on the other hand, has a Mediterranean climate and from here, with vines<br />trained using the guyot system, we harvest Teroldego,<br />Merlot and Cabernet. The soils are of morainic origin and in the case of Merlot, which grows in the Pivier vineyard, there is a substantial amount of clay and silt.<br /><br />WINEMAKING<br />The hand-picked grapes are destemmed and the grapes, left whole, ferment in stainless steel tanks. Maceration lasts about 10 days for Lagrein and Teroldego and about<br />20 days for Merlot and Cabernet. Once fermentation is complete, the wine is aged in barriques for about 12 months and only then is the cuvée between the different wines<br />made. In order to<br />In order to safeguard the freshness and fruity characteristics of the wine, the barrels used are exclusively used.

Solaia 2018 IGT Toscana...
Solaia Toscana IGT 2018<br /><br />Climate: The 2018 season in Chianti Classico opened with a rather regular winter in terms of both temperatures and rainfall; despite these climatic conditions, the vineyards<br />began their budding activity a week earlier than the historical average for the area. The spring period, and in particular May, was characterised by frequent rainfall and slightly<br />lower than usual temperatures, while June and July were dry and fairly warm, without ever experiencing extreme conditions. A few rainfalls in August and a dry and windy<br />period in September and October allowed the grapes to ripen in an ideal manner, guaranteeing a good sugar content and excellent polyphenolic ripening. The harvest began<br />in the last days of September with the Cabernet Franc, continued with the Sangiovese and concluded with the Cabernet Sauvignon on 10 October.<br /><br />Total annual rainfall: 845.9 mm<br /><br />Average temperature 1 April - 12 October: 20.4 °C<br /><br />Rainfall 1 April - 12 October: 286 mm<br /><br />Vinification: Great care was taken, both in the vineyard during harvest and in the cellar, where the grapes were destemmed and the berries, carefully selected at the sorting<br />table, were transferred after pressing by gravity into the tanks. It is essential that only the perfect grapes reach the 60 hl truncated cone vinification tanks. During<br />fermentation and maceration, great care was taken to maintain the correct balance between the fruit and the quality of the tannins in order to express to the full the<br />sweetness, fragrance, identity and character of Solaia. Immediately after racking, malolactic fermentation began in barriques, enhancing the complexity and pleasantness of<br />the wine. The ageing process took place in new French oak barrels for about 18 months. After an initial period in separate lots, these were blended to complete the<br />maturation in wood.<br />Historical data<br /><br />Solaia is a vineyard of about 20 hectares (12 acres) facing southwest between 350 and 400 meters (1,500 and 1,300 feet) above sea level on a rocky limestone soil with<br />alberese and galestro rocks, located at Tenuta Tignanello. The Antinori family produced this wine for the first time with the 1978 vintage; the initial blend was 80% Cabernet<br />Sauvignon and 20% Cabernet Franc, which was repeated in 1979. In subsequent vintages, 20% Sangiovese was introduced, and some corrections were made to the ratio of<br />Cabernet Sauvignon to Cabernet Franc, leading to the current composition. Solaia is produced only in exceptional vintages and was not made in 1980, 1981, 1983, 1984 and<br />1992.<br /><br />Tasting notes: Solaia 2018 has an intense ruby red colour. On the nose the intense notes of ripe dark fruit, in particular blueberry and blackcurrant, combine with pleasant<br />hints of dried flowers and lavender, accompanied by delicate spicy sensations of white pepper and balsamic hints of mint and eucalyptus. Sweet and well-integrated aromas<br />of white chocolate, candyfloss and dried fruit complete the rich bouquet. On the palate it is enveloping and creamy: the tannins, soft and silky, give a long, persistent and<br />very elegant finish, with an aftertaste reminiscent of liquorice and recalling the floral and spicy notes perceived on the nose.<br />

Nosiola CESCONI 750ml IGT
Nosiola is the only autochthonous white variety in Trentino, present since the time of the Council of Trent. The origin of the name has not yet been clarified. Many maintain<br />that it derives its name from hazelnut, due to the colour of the grapes when ripe, while others believe that it is the aroma of the wines that recalls that of wild hazelnuts.<br />What we do know is that it is a versatile variety, which like few others in the world can produce both great sweet wines and still white wines with a savoury character that<br />can age for many decades.<br /><br />Once widespread throughout the province, Nosiola was mainly grown on the Pressano hill and in the Valle dei Laghi. In recent times, the variety has undergone a major<br />downsizing in favour of international varieties to the extent that it has become almost 'rare'. Today it covers a cultivated area of only 65 hectares. As winegrowers, attached<br />to our territory and our traditions, we are happy to contribute to its preservation.<br /><br />Type of wine: White wine<br />Format: (Litres) 0.75<br />Production area: Nosiola is planted in the highest vineyards on the edge of the forest at an altitude of about 500 metres to the north-east of Pressano. Nosiola flowers early<br />and prefers high, well-ventilated and sunny areas. The vineyard is west-facing and has loose soil on a deep, fertile dolomite dejection cone. The vines have an average age of<br />35 years and are trained to the simple pergola system, with a density of about 3500 plants per hectare.<br />Vinification Part of the grapes are destemmed and macerated for 4-5 days until the 'cap rises'. At this point a cuvèe is made from the directly pressed grapes and<br />fermentation continues partly in stainless steel containers and partly in large acacia barrels. The acacia wood allows us to combine the advantages of vinification in wood<br />with the preservation of the fine and delicate bouquet of Nosiola. The wine remains in contact with its own yeast for about 9 months before being bottled at the end of the<br />summer.<br />

Pinot noir DOC 2018 750ml...
Pinot Noir 'Ludwig' 2018<br />South Tyrol DOC<br /><br />The long history of Pinot Noir in South Tyrol has accompanied the development of the wine region. Elena Walch's Pinot Noir 'Ludwig' was created with the 2001 vintage,<br />from grapes of old vines in cooler sites, some of which are even still planted as Pergel. The small production of 10,000 bottles indicates the strict selection of plots to<br />produce a classic, complex Burgundy of the highest quality. The many national and international awards for the Pinot Noir 'Ludwig', including the top award of the 12th and<br />19th Italian Pinot Noir Competition in 2013 and in 2020, confirm the winemaker's great commitment to the noble grape variety.<br /><br />'The Pinot Noir 'Ludwig' presents itself with a fresh, strong ruby red as well as with elegant concentration and complexity. concentration and complexity. Fresh fruity notes<br />with heart cherries and red currants as well as spicy spicy aromas with a little pepper and elegant toasted aromas define the bouquet. On the palate, the wine and elegance<br />with firm tannins, a fruity and delicate structure and a harmonious interplay between<br />and a harmonious interplay between discreet spiciness and youthful, juicy freshness - with great potential and inviting length.<br /><br />COURSE OF THE 2018 VINTAGE<br />The 2018 wine year presents itself as an outstanding vintage with excellent<br />quality. After a long winter, the vegetation phase - with budding in mid<br />April - somewhat later than in previous years. A rainy but warm phase but warm phase until the beginning of flowering at the end of May made up for this delay.<br />The harvest finally began in fine weather at the end of August - a few cooler weeks in mid to late August had<br />A few cooler weeks in mid to late August had delayed the start of harvesting by a few days after the very hot and dry weeks in July. This was followed by a golden autumn<br />with sunny and warm days and thus the ideal phenolic ripeness could be waited for each individual variety. Even cool nights were crucial for maintaining acidity and<br />freshness, especially for the white wines. A great vintage in South Tyrol!<br />VINIFICATION:<br />Fermentation on the skins for 10 days in steel tanks and partly in wooden barrels. Subsequent acid degradation in wooden barrels. Maturation in barrique barrels made of<br />French oak barrels for a period of 13 months. A state-of-the-art fermentation cellar cellar since 2015 allows a very gentle<br />processing of the grapes with whole berry processing and also the<br />processing of whole grapes using gravity. The sensitive destemmer and the gentle transport of the grapes by means of a 'cuvon', a container on rails, prove to be extremely<br />gentle on the grapes and preserve their high quality. The state-of-the-art building is certainly unique in South Tyrol in this conception and is probably one of the most modern<br />fermenting cellars in Italy, for the production of great red wines d'excellence.<br />Alcohol: 13.50% vol.<br />Total acidity: 6.1 g/L<br />Residual sugar: 1,2 g/L<br />Grape variety: 100% Pinot Noir<br />
