The winter season passed with mild temperatures and low rainfall. These<br />conditions led to an early spring. From the second week of April, the weather changed dramatically and until mid-May, rain was the protagonist with temperatures below<br />average. These weather conditions compromised the flowering and were the cause of spinning of the wings of the bunches and floral dripping, resulting in smaller, more<br />sparse bunches with very low average weights. After 15 May we saw a clear improvement in the weather conditions which allowed us to set fruit in favourable conditions.<br />Above-average temperatures characterised the month of June, which can be described as the driest in the last 20 years. The dry weather continued until mid-July with the<br />vines beginning to show symptoms of water stress. The beginning of August brought us the much-desired rain, effectively saving the season.<br />From 20 August, with the start of the harvest, temperatures returned to normal and the fine weather accompanied us until the end of the season.<br />and good weather accompanied us until the end of August. The harvest began on 20 August and ended on 5 September in good weather. Average yield per hectare was<br />4,800 kilograms of grapes, equivalent to 3,020 litres of wine (wine yield: 63%). The small size of the bunches and the low yields in the vineyard have legitimised the high<br />quality of this vintage, which is expressed in the Cuvée Prestige Edition 44 by an intense aroma of citrus, white and yellow fruits and by a full-bodied, extremely lively taste.<br /><br />VINIFICATION<br />The base wines of the Cuvée Prestige are the result of a careful selection of grapes and a skilful vinification process conducted in full respect of the Ca' del Bosco Method.<br />The grapes, harvested by hand in small crates, are classified and cooled. Each bunch is selected by expert eyes and hands, and then benefits from the exclusive 'berry<br />spa': a special system of washing and hydromassage of the bunches consisting of three soaking tubs and a drying tunnel. After pressing in the absence of oxygen, all the<br />musts of the base wines ferment in temperature-controlled steel tanks and remain there until the following March. Seven months of refinement are then necessary for the<br />wine to clarify, mature and bring out the best of the character of the original vineyards. The wines are then skilfully blended in the 'magic ritual' of creating the cuvée. It is<br />only after a minimum of two years of ageing on the lees that this Franciacorta can express all its richness and identity. The dégorgement takes place in the absence of<br />oxygen, using a unique system designed and patented by Ca' del Bosco. This avoids oxidative shocks and further additions of sulphites. It makes our Franciacorta wines<br />purer, more pleasant and longer-lived. Finally, each packaged bottle is uniquely marked to ensure traceability.<br /><br />DRILLING<br />From April to June of the year following the harvest.<br /><br />AVERAGE AGEING ON THE LEES<br />On average 25 months.<br /><br />DOSAGE AT DISGORGING<br />Sugar content 1.0 grams/litre - 'Extra Brut'.<br /><br />ANALYTICAL DATA AT DISGORGEMENT<br />Alcohol 12.8% vol.; pH 3.11; Total acidity 5.80 grams/litre; Volatile acidity 0.32 grams/litre.<br /><br />SULPHITES<br />Total sulphur dioxide, maximum 55 milligrams/litre (maximum legal limit: 185 milligrams/litre), concentration specified on the back label.<br />

<br />The 'Saarburger Kupp' vineyard - located above the town of Saarburg - is extraordinarily steep. The soil of the 'Kupp' consists largely of grey slate. The wines from this<br />special, steep exposure are characterised by a distinct minerality and elegant structure.<br />

A full-bodied, well-structured red wine, made only from Montepulciano grapes, it is aged in traditional oak barrels for a year before being released for consumption. It<br />combines the typical morello cherry aromas of Rosso Conero with an important but pleasantly soft structure. If well stored, it is a wine for long ageing.<br /><br />Type of wine: mature red.<br />Area of origin: Rosso Conero DOC zone.<br />Soil: medium texture, rich in limestone.<br />Grapes: Montepulciano.<br />Yield per hectare: 100 q<br />Processing: grapes harvested when fully ripe, destemming and crushing of the grapes, fermentation with maceration for 8-10 days on the skins, racking and malolactic<br />fermentation.<br />Ageing: maturation for 12 months in casks and about 6 months in bottles.<br />Colour: intense ruby red. Bouquet: complex, ample, intense and persistent. Rich in hints of ripe fruit, plum, morello cherry and jam. Taste: soft and warm with pronounced,<br />elegant and pleasant tannins.<br />Consumption: if well stored, it can age 4 - 6 years.<br />Food pairing: suitable with red meats, game and mature cheeses.<br />Serving temperature: 18° C<br />

The selection of the best grapes and the deliberately low yield in the vineyard give this wine a great structure. It matures from one to two years in small oak barrels and<br />almost as many years in the bottle before being released for consumption. The important character of the wine and the morello cherry aromas typical of Rosso Conero blend<br />harmoniously with those of the wood.
