PICOL Sauvignon DOC LIS...

PICOL Sauvignon DOC LIS...

Sauvignon Blanc is an international grape variety grown in many areas of the world. The two schools (zones) of reference are French; the Loire Valley, which produces<br />particularly aromatic, savoury and mineral Sauvignons, and the Bordeaux zone, which often blends this variety with Semillon, giving it structure and body. In both cases,<br />elegance and finesse are characteristic of only the best wines.<br />The right bank of the Isonzo, with its warm and stony soils, decisive for a superior structure, and a climate favoured in the temperature change by the ventilation of Balkan<br />origin and by Mediterranean influences due to its proximity to the sea, is a site of great potential for following what can be called 'the Friulian way to Sauvignon Blanc'.<br /><br />Grape variety: Sauvignon Blanc<br />Denomination: DOC Friuli Isonzo<br />Vineyard: Cultivated with organic fertilisation and integrated phytosanitary defence (EU regulations) with abolition of chemical weeding.<br />Vinification: Fermentation in steel tanks (20-22 °C), combined maturation in stainless steel/wood on fine deposit for 11 months with frequent bâtonnage. Bottling and aging in<br />bottle for a minimum of 12 months.<br />Harvest: By hand with careful selection of grapes.<br />Alcohol content: 13,5 % Vol.<br />Serving temperature: 11° C<br />A very respectable vintage for this variety. The 'Friulian way to Sauvignon Blanc' is exalted for its aromatic and structural combination. A wine for collectors, perfect with rich<br />fish dishes and fresh cheeses.<br />

Pinot Grigio GRIS LIS NERIS...

Pinot Grigio GRIS LIS NERIS...

Gris is a pure Pinot Grigio from a single vineyard where all the vines have reached productive maturity.<br />After the start of fermentation in steel, this continues and is completed in 500-litre French oak casks, followed by 11 months of maturation on fine deposit in the same<br />fermentation containers. During this period, the aromatic range increases without changing the original characteristics of the vine.<br />Grape variety: Pinot Grigio<br />Denomination: DOC Friuli Isonzo<br />Vineyard: Cultivated with organic fertilisation and ingested phytosanitary defence (EU regulations) with abolition of chemical weeding.<br />Harvest: By hand with careful selection of the bunches.<br />Vinification: Fermentation in 500 lg French oak barrels (22-24° C), maturation in the same containers as the fermentation on fine deposit for 11 months with frequent<br />bâtonage.

Cabernet Sauvignon 2018 IGT...

Cabernet Sauvignon 2018 IGT...

CABERNET SAUVIGNON<br /><br />This variety needs no introduction and has also found much space in Friuli. The low yields and strong stripping favour a more 'southern' maturation. Maceration is not too<br />long and during this phase great care is taken to separate the grape seeds. The result is a wine with an intense colour, warm aromas and a rounded taste, where the tannin<br />expresses itself above all with elegance.<br /><br />Grape variety: Cabernet Sauvignon<br />Denomination: IGT Venezia Giulia<br />Municipality of production: San Lorenzo - Corona - Romans (Gorizia)<br />Soil type: calcareous gravelly plateau (60/25 m asl)<br />Vineyard: Cultivated with organic fertilisation and integrated pest management (as per EU regulations) with no chemical weed control<br />Average age of vines: 15 years<br />Training system: Guyot 5.200 - 5.600 vines/ha<br />Production: 50 - 55 hl/ha<br />Harvesting: By hand with careful selection of the grapes<br />Alcohol content: 13%.<br />Serving temperature: 18 °C<br />Bottles produced: 110,000 (average)<br />Ageing potential 10 years<br />

JUROSA Chardonnay 2016 DOC...

JUROSA Chardonnay 2016 DOC...

It is strange how a grape variety that is so popular throughout the world was confused in Friuli with Pinot Bianco until the late 1970s.<br />Although the entire eastern part of this region has great potential, the variety has not yet entered the hearts of producers, but there are examples that show how this variety<br />can compete with the great Chardonnays of the world.<br />Jurosa is one of them, and its northern, sunny character marks its evolutionary path, capable of improvement and progress over time.<br /><br />Grape variety: Chardonnay<br />Denomination: DOC Friuli Isonzo<br />Vineyard: Cultivated with organic fertilisation and integrated pest management (EU regulations) with no chemical weeding.<br />Harvest: By hand with careful selection of the bunches.<br />Vinification: Fermentation in 500-litre French oak barrels (22-24 °C), maturation in the same containers for 11 months with frequent bâtonnage, bottling and ageing in bottles<br />for a minimum of 12 months.<br />Alcohol content: 13 %.<br />Serving temperature: 11° C<br /><br />After a spring that was not ideal for this variety, the vines reacted well during the summer, giving us a fascinating and well-balanced wine with a northern, sunny character,<br />capable of improving and progressing over time. On the nose, it has notes of apricot, hay, butter and custard; on the palate, it is full and mineral with an acidic streak well<br />balanced by softness. It goes well with all fish dishes, from hot starters and first courses to steamed or stewed main courses, and can also be enjoyed with cheeses and<br />white meats.<br />

Champagne Roederer Carte...

Champagne Roederer Carte...

Bottle: 0.75 l<br />Characteristics<br />Carte Blanche is a champagne with a very traditional style due to its higher dosage, called 'demi-sec'. This style of wine-making was very popular and appreciated at the<br />end of the 19th century, particularly in certain northern European countries. Carte Blanche is therefore made from Brut Premier, to which more sugar is added at the time of<br />disgorging. The dosage gives the wine a rich, creamy and ample structure, contrasting with its freshness.<br />Grape varieties:<br />40% Pinot Noir<br />40% Chardonnay (of which 20% vinified in wood)<br />20% Meunier<br />Vinification:<br />Carte Blanche benefits from 3 years' cellar ageing, to which a 6-month rest period is added after disgorgement to perfect its maturity.<br />The dosage is 38 g/l.<br />It carries out a partial malolactic fermentation.<br />Tasting notes:<br />Carte Blanche reveals a range of sweet, ripe fruits (baked apple), intense floral notes (broom) and hints of warm, sugary almonds reminiscent of almond cream. The high<br />dosage is well balanced by both the wine's freshness and the long duration of disgorgement.<br />

Champagne Roederer Brut...

Champagne Roederer Brut...

BRUT PREMIER<br />Characteristics<br />Always on the borderline between aperitif wine and wine for the whole meal, Brut Premier asserts its fresh style: direct, precise and juicy at the same time.<br /><br />Brut Premier is produced each year, seeking the same balance between freshness and pleasure: it is both elegant and rich, youthful and mature, with a very particular<br />structure, on the borderline between an aperitif wine and a wine for the whole meal. Every year it is assembled and recreated with patience, starting from the strength of the<br />last vintage (the base), which must be softened, patinated and tamed with care so as never to lose its peculiarities! It is the reserve wines, aged for individual parcels for up<br />to 10 years in French oak barrels, that give Brut Premier its unmistakable character. It is a meticulous work, involving 200 to 300 different lots: the wines, the vines, the crus,<br />the vintages blend in a harmonious and delicious way so that everything changes but remains the same!<br />Grape varieties:<br />40% Pinot Noir, 40% Chardonnay of which 10% vinified in wood (oak barrels) and 20% Meunier.<br />Vinification:<br />Brut Premier benefits from an average of 3 years of ageing in the cellar, to which is added a rest period of 6 months after disgorging, to perfect its maturity.<br />The dosage is 9 g/l.<br />Tasting notes:<br />A bright yellow wine with golden hues and a very dynamic effervescence. The nose has aromas of candied citrus fruits (lemon) with notes of peel, acidulous, combined with<br />the sweetness of toasted hazelnut, acacia flowers in full bloom. The palate is rich, fluid, round and fresh. The attack is centred on juicy, direct, dense fruit, pure but<br />characterised by sweetness, prolonged by a savoury freshness that gives it a remarkable mineral precision, an elegance without excess. The sensation is delicate, fluid,<br />consistent and with a particular immediacy!<br />

Masseto 2015 IGT Ornellaia...

Masseto 2015 IGT Ornellaia...

2015<br />Compared to a rather peculiar 2014, 2015 turned out to be an almost textbook vintage. After a rainy and mild winter with only a few days of sub-zero temperatures, budding<br />took place on time during the first days of April. The spring was dry and sunny, providing ideal conditions for regular vegetative growth, culminating in rapid and complete<br />flowering at the end of May. From June onwards, water stress gradually became evident. July will be remembered as a particularly hot and dry month, with maximum<br />temperatures above 30°C every day of the month. The heat, combined with the lack of rainfall, led us to fear that ripening would come to a standstill and that the harvest<br />would have to be brought forward. Fortunately, heavy rains fell around 10 August, which not only unblocked the ripening process but also brought much cooler temperatures<br />during the final ripening phase. This cool but sunny weather continued throughout the harvest, allowing us to pick the grapes with greater ease, choosing the ideal moment<br />to pick the various blocks of the vineyard, resulting in a fresh and lively aromatic quality with a perfect degree of phenolic ripeness together with abundant but soft and silky<br />tannins. The harvest began on 29 August with the youngest vines and ended on 16 September with the last portions of 'Masseto Centrale'.<br />TASTING NOTES: The regularity of the vintage, together with the ideal temperatures during the harvest, are reflected in a classic Masseto, with a perfect balance between<br />mature and complex aromatic expression of great freshness and a rare quality of broad, silky and soft tannins. Dark and intense in colour and rich in aromas with notes of<br />fully ripe red fruits and spices, balsamic and cocoa. In the mouth it becomes sensual and rich, with great density and ample and perfectly soft tannins. The fruity notes are<br />underlined by the subtle presence of oak, ending in a fresh and vivid finish with pronounced hints of cocoa.<br />

Ornellaia 2013 Bolgheri DOC...

Ornellaia 2013 Bolgheri DOC...

ORNELLAIA 2013 'L'ELEGANZA' - BOLGHERI DOC SUPERIORE<br />The desire to express the exceptional qualities of the estate has been at the heart of Ornellaia's philosophy from the very beginning. Ornellaia is a cuvée of Cabernet<br />Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot, a faithful expression of a unique terroir that has always been in harmony with nature.<br /><br />TASTING NOTES FROM THE ENOLOGIST 45% Cabernet Sauvignon, 38% Merlot, 10% Cabernet Franc, 7% Petit Verdot 'What seemed to be a disadvantage for the 2013<br />vintage - a late bud break and late flowering - turned out to be a great advantage thanks to a textbook summer and month of harvest, with cool temperatures but mostly<br />sunny weather. This led to a slow but complete ripening with great balance and fascinating aromatic quality, what we like to call 'Elegance'. Deep and dense in colour,<br />Ornellaia 2013 presents itself on the nose with a splendid aromatic complexity that is built around a bright and clear fruitiness, underlined by refined spicy and balsamic<br />notes. The palate develops with vibrant, complex fruit framed by a dense, slender structure with tannins that achieve a rare balance between firmness and flesh, concluding<br />with a long, balanced, fresh finish.' Axel Heinz - May 2015<br /><br />THE CLIMATE OF 2013 After the dry 2012, the winter of 2013 was characterised by mild but very rainy weather, which caused a delay in budding of a good 15 days. The<br />cold and rainy weather also led to an irregular and very long flowering period - two weeks later than average - which reduced production and caused uneven cluster<br />development. Fortunately, the summer, which arrived on time at the end of June, was perfect, dry and sunny, but not without some peaks of intense heat in July and August.<br />In the end, the vegetative delay was beneficial because it moved the ripening to after the hottest period. The mid-August thunderstorms significantly lowered temperatures -<br />especially at night - becoming favourable for aromatic expression, but forcing us to harvest later than average, starting on 9 September and ending on 14 October, with<br />mostly sunny weather without excessive heat.<br /><br />WINE-MAKING AND REFINING The grapes were hand-picked into 15 kg crates and selected on a double sorting table before and after destemming and then softly<br />crushed. Each variety and each parcel was vinified separately. Alcoholic fermentation took place in stainless steel vats at temperatures between 26-30°C for a week,<br />followed by maceration for a total of approximately 10-15 days. Malolactic fermentation took place mainly in oak barriques (70% new and 30% second passage). The wine<br />remained in barriques in the Ornellaia cellars at a controlled temperature for a period of about 18 months. After the first 12 months it was blended and then reintroduced into<br />the barriques where it spent a further 6 months. The wine remained in the bottle for a further 12 months before release.<br />
