Through hard work and meticulous attention to detail, we ultimately achieved great results.<br />Our vines coped well with both the wet spring and the hot and dry summer, and the golden autumn helped us achieve perfect ripeness. Physiolog-ical ripeness, sugar<br />ripeness and acidity are in perfect balance. Ripe fruit, cool character and moderate alcohol characterise the vintage.<br />From mid-September to the end of October, we were able to harvest all our red wine varieties at the best time. The average yield per hectare was 53 hl.<br /><br />Winemaking<br /><br />La Rose de Manincor is the result of the top red wine batches being made by the saignée method, i.e. bleeding off a proportion of wine after only short contact with the<br />skins - in this case 6 to 12 hours; it increases the ratio of skins to juice in the vat in order to obtain a red wine with more colour and tannin. Consequently the composition<br />and character of the rosé wine may vary slightly from year to year. The lightly coloured juice so obtained is fermented in oak barrels partially using yeasts occurring<br />naturally on the grapes. The young wine is subsequently matured on the fine lees to allow the aromas and flavour to develop.<br /><br />Data<br /><br />Residual sugar: 0.9 g/l<br />Alcohol: 13 % vol.<br />Acidity: malolactic fermentation: 6.0 g/l<br /><br />Description & drinking recommendation<br /><br />Bright salmon red in colour with a bouquet reminiscent of raspberry and cherry, juicy and creamy on the palate, excellent length with a mineral-fruity aftertaste.<br />Enjoy at optimum maturity from early summer 2024 to the end of 2027.<br />Serve: very lightly chilled but not cold; 46 - 50 °F<br />An excellent match for well-seasoned first courses, fried or smoked fish as well as dishes of white and grilled meats.<br /><br />Our claim<br /><br />Biodynamic<br />Respekt-BIODYN<br />Vegan<br />

Lugana 2024 CA'DEI FRATI 375ml
I Frati<br />Lugana Doc<br /><br />The wine that has made the company's image known and continues to do so. It has a direct link with its variety, Turbiana, our indigenous vine. Conceived to be consumed<br />during the year, it expresses its best side many years after bottling. In its youth it is fresh, linear and endowed with great finesse and elegance with delicate notes of white<br />flowers and balsamic, hints of apricot and almond. Time allows it to evolve, expressing its mineral notes with greater determination. The wine acquires its own complexity<br />with hints of iodine, spices and candied fruit. In the mouth it is capable of enveloping the whole palate thanks to an important savoury essence accompanied by lively and<br />exuberant acidity. When young, it is best served at a temperature of around 10 degrees, with cold or warm but delicate hors d'oeuvres and with boiled, steamed or grilled<br />fish dishes.<br />Technical data<br /><br />Grape varieties used: Turbiana 100%.<br />Soil composition: calcareous - clayey<br />Training system: Simple and double Guyot<br />Planting system: 2.30 x 0.70<br />Yield per hectare: 90 quintals<br />Type of vinification: steel<br />Malolactic: Not carried out<br />Ageing and development: in steel on fine lees for a minimum of 6 months, followed by 2 months in bottle<br />Alcohol content: 13%.<br />Total acidity: 6.40 g/L<br />Volatile acidity: 0.30 g/L<br />pH: 3.20<br />Dry extract: 21 g/L<br />
