Exilissi SELL Spätl....
Exilissi Sell 2007<br /><br />Vintage: After an exceptionally mild winter, the vines sprouted earlier than ever before. April and May were also warmer than average, so that by mid-May the flowering was<br />already over in all locations. This 3-week advance in vegetation lasted until harvest. The cool August and a golden September proved it once again: The last weeks before<br />the harvest are decisive for the quality.<br />Whites and reds were able to ripen perfectly and were harvested at the optimal time. That is why the harvest took longer than ever before. The first grapes entered the<br />cellar on 21 August, the last on 24 October. All in all, it should be a very good vintage. The red wines promise to be the best of the last ten years.<br /><br />Vinification: gentle pressing of the delicate grapes. Fermentation of the unclarified must in 500 l tonnequx, further 15 months of maturation in the same barrel. Bottled in<br />March 2009<br /><br />Harvest conditions: a sunny and warm late autumn allowed the grapes to hang until mid-November, thus enabling the harvest of a very ripe grape.<br /><br />Site/soil: Höfl unterm Stein in Söll near Tramin, situated on a south-eastern slope at 480 to 550 metres above sea level. On gravelly, loamy calcareous gravel soil, there are<br />both 30-year-old pergola plants and wire frames that are over 10 years old, which produce something unique with an extremely low yield of 25hl/ha.<br /><br />Oenologist's notes: an enormously concentrated late harvest with intense aromas of sultanas, apricots and spices. Very smooth and long on the palate. Mineral components<br />can be found in the finish.<br /><br />Variety list: 100% Gewürztraminer<br />Alcohol: 13.5% vol.<br />Acidity: 6.8g/l<br />Residual sugar: 140g/l<br />

Amarone Valpolicella DOCG...
<br />Vinification<br /><br />Destemming and pressing of the grapes.<br />Maceration: about 20 days in stainless steel tanks.<br /><br /><br />Maturation and ageing<br /><br />36 months in large Slavonian oak barrels of 15 to 50 hl.<br />About 6 months in the bottle.<br /><br /><br />Sensory impressions<br /><br />A dark, almost inky ruby red colour with rich garnet hues. Bold yet delicate on the nose, it is redolent of ripe cherries, cassis and prunes; hints of milk chocolate, rhubarb<br />and balsamic mentholated tobacco also come through, creating an exquisitely refined, harmonious and elegant bouquet. Tonic and juicy on the palate, it is a ripe, full-bodied<br />wine with extremely lively tannins; an invigorating citrus note perfectly balances its high alcohol and helps make this big wine a most enjoyable drink.<br /><br /><br />Recommended food pairings<br /><br />Amarone is made from dried grapes and is therefore a concentrated, round and powerful wine, an elixir of long life. After a few years of bottle ageing, it becomes an excellent<br />complement for luxurious dishes such as jugged hare, roast turkey with truffles, braised beef in red wine, Amarone risotto. When savoured at its peak, it pairs perfectly with<br />ripe, pungent cheeses. A daring combination? Try it with cotechino.<br />

Magnum Il Conte 2023 BIO...
A wine which tastes of Manincor; truly unique. The essence of the hills around the wine estate and the lake, full of vigour and warmth.<br /><br />Grape varieties<br />Lagrein 48 %, Merlot 35 %, Cabernet 17 %<br /><br />Location & soil<br />The Manincor estate and the Panholzerhof, both sites are south-east facing overlooking the Lake of Kaltern at an altitude of 250 m above sea level; soils are rich<br />comprising sand and clay mixed with limestone gravel and other morainal deposits. These vineyards are among the warmest in all South Tyrol, pre-destined for the<br />production of great red wines.<br /><br />Expansion<br />Grapes from each parcel of vineyard were crushed separately and fermented in a mixture of oak and cement vats and stainless steel tanks using yeasts occurring naturally<br />in the vineyard. Skin contact lasted ten days and was rigorously controlled, during which time the cap of skins was pushed down into the fermenting liquid daily as it rose to<br />the surface in order to extract velvety, assertive but ripe tannins. Fresh fruit and elegance are the main qualities we strive for in this wine. The young wine was transferred<br />into oak barrels of varying sizes where it matured for twelve months.<br /><br />Description & drinking recommendation<br />Concentrated bright ruby. A rich, seductive berry fruit and spice nose leads to a remarkably succulent, well-structured palate of white and black pepper, dark chocolate,<br />liquorice and damson with silky-textured tannins. Almost Burgundian in its drinkability.<br />Enjoy at optimum maturity from 2023 to the end of 2028.<br />Serve: just below room temperature, 60 - 64 °F<br />Delicious to accompany well-seasoned Mediterranean first courses, peppered lamb steaks and other dishes of fried or grilled red meat.<br /><br />Our claim<br />Biodynamic<br />Vegan<br />
