BRAIDA - GIACOMO BOLOGNA

La Monella 2018

This is the wine that officially launched the story of Braida: the first grapes used to make this wine were grown in the vineyard owned by grandma Caterina, and granddad wrote the words “La Monella” in chalk on the liveliest barrel of Barbera. It grows in young vineyards, is lively and has never changed, being perfect in its original simplicity. A gaudy purplish ruby red colour, with a lively, slightly sparkling froth. Fragrant, unbridled and vinous bouquet, with numerous scents of red fruit. Extraordinarily lively taste, very fresh, “cheerful and unrestrained”, good body and a smooth texture.

DUCA DI SALAPARUTA

Duca Enrico 1990

Duca Enrico 1990, tasted after two decades, surprises with an impact rich in spicy scents, of dried rose and ripe cherry, and of balsamic scents, which enrich the olfactory complexity. On the palate it is elegant but with a still rough tannin, which announces an interesting future. Duca Enrico, produced for the first time in 1984, is one of the symbolic wines of Italian and international enology. Primo Nero d’Avola in purity in the history of Sicilian wines, this noble red, which comes only from some very select vineyards within the Suor Marchesa Estate, is a wine with an aristocratic charm and unmistakable style.

BORGOGNO

Barolo Fossati 2011 Jéroboam

The 2011 harvest will be remembered over the years as a vintage outside the box, if we consider the climate indexes we do not notice significant differences with respect to the average, while the thermal trend was certainly particular: characterized by periods with higher temperatures at less hot periods. Without a doubt, the grape variety that is best suited to this vintage is Nebbiolo. The grapes that arrived in the cellars possess all the characteristics that are required for the great wines of this area: low yield in the vineyard, excellent quantity of tannins and good color as well as a really interesting aromatic framework. After decanting the wine, the wine went into 4.500 liter barrels in Slavonian oak, then aged for 4 years to finish with 6 months of aging in bottle.

Feudo di Mezzo 2014 Magnum

Feudo di Mezzo is the largest cru in the appellation, a homogenous character, but with clear qualitative variations – much like one could say of Clos de Vougeot in Burgundy. From the best parcels, such as “Quadro delle Rose”, it betrays a dusky character, autumnal tones in its cedary-spicy bouquet.

Santo Spirito 2015 Magnum

An outstandingly beautiful location, gentle wide terraces flowing sweetly in striking contrast to steep, graggy Guardiola. Again, Santo Spirito’s soil is deep rich volcanic ash, its grass a lush emerald green, its vigorous vines displaying a well fed abundance. Santo Spirito’s wines are luscious and sensual, always seductive in their almost fleshy bouquet, and in their buttermilk richness. And yet there’s still a balance and a purity there, very sophisticated, yes, but tender as well. Generous and vulnerable at once. Magnum 1,5lt.

Etna Rosso 2017

The grapes are macerated until the end of fermentation. The wine then continues its life in wood until bottled roughly one year after harvest. Even young it is a distinguished wine. Fresh, fragrant, beautifully slender and with a fine grip, it has a natural polish, a stage presence, as it were. And, in aging, as its weave gathers into rich complexity, it is a wine for gentlemen. It is an aristocratically liberal wine: enjoy it with whatever food you wish, as long as its properly cooked.

Full, bright ruby, almost black in colour, this is an extremely typical Lagrein, very easily recognisable. It is immediately impressive due to the excellent equilibrium between intensity and complexity, between aromas of spice and small woodland berry fruits and violets.

Michei 2017

This wine makes a youthful impression with its fresh, pale yellow and subtle green-yellow highlights. The inviting bouquet initially reveals notes of gooseberry paired with a touch of currant followed by nuances of elderflower, nettles and flint. The palate makes an equally refreshing impression due to a crisp, elegant, appetizing acidity that is superbly integrated. The extraordinary freshness that characterizes this wine continues the entire length of the mouth. Well balanced and firmly structured, this wine impresses with notes of minerals and clearly defined varietal aromas on the finish. Grapes are immediately destemmed upon delivery and macerated on the skins for 8 hours before being gently pressed. The must is clarified through natural sedimentation and fermented at a controlled temperature.

The Meczan Pinot Nero is distinguished by its unmistakable varietal character, its distinctive aroma and fruity character, by its bright ruby colour with garnet reflexes, and its fresh, stimulating bouquet with seductive hints of woodland berries and cherry. On the palate Meczan is harmonious, sappy and mellow with impressive fruit. Pinot Nero was successfully introduced into Alto Adige on the beginning of the 19 century. It soon became evident that the gently sloping terrain and the micro-climate at Mazon were perfect for producing Pinot Nero of international stature.

Barthenau Vigna S. Urbano 2010

Barthenau Vigna San Urbano faithfully reveals the potential inherent in our finest cru to produce world-beating Pinot Nero. It is located in the heart of the vineyard surrounding our Barthenau manor house close to the hamlet of Mazon, where some of the Pinot Nero vines here are over 65 years old. Only the term “Vigna” guarantees the origin of a single-vineyard wine in Alto Adige. A superb Pinot Nero, whose concentration is clearly heralded by its dark ruby colour. Initially it seems somewhat closed on the nose, but then opens up in the glass to reveal its authentic, noble Pinot Nero origins. The aroma reminiscent of sour cherry and raspberry is enhanced by a delicate hint of vanilla and spice. On the palate it shows excellent harmony with elegant acidity, well-integrated sweet tannins and enormous concentration of aromas.

Lafóa 2017

A clean, concentrated floral nose reminiscent of elder and acacia flower with hint of sage; fresh and distinctive on palate with nicely rounded fruit, light oak spice and a crisp finish. Cellaring potential: 6 – 10 years. Lafóa is a byword for the beginning of the Alto Adige quality initiative and the pioneering work of the Cantina Colterenzio in the 1980s. At the time, the wine pioneer Luis Raifer not only planted new grape varieties on his vineyard named Lafóa, but at the same time introduced new quality standards: less yield for better grapes and better wines. It was exactly on this pilot vineyard that the “Lafóa idea” was born: the introduction of new quality standards that until this very day meet with the winegrowers and staff of Cantina Colterenzio. Lafóa stands for full-bodied white and red wines that are nonetheless very elegant and have great aging potential.

Messorio 2007 Jéroboam

Messorio, first produced in 1994, Messorio was a personal challenge with one of the most planted varieties in Bolgheri, on the Tuscan coast, and in the world: Merlot. From the start, the idea was to transform the best bunches into an impactful wine with a lot of personality, staying as far away as possible from the more soft, predictable style that is often associated with Merlot and instead making a thoroughbred eager to win the race. The name “messorio” refers to the wheat harvest, one of the most fundamental parts of the agricultural cycle. 2007, on the whole, was a good year from the meteorological point of view. Winter was quite mild with enough rainfall. In late March, temperatures dropped below average for the time of the year, nearing zero degrees. As for the rest of the year, temperatures were never scorching hot and there were good swings in temperature variation between night and day. A year of abundant rainfall, very even from the phenological point of view, with all growth stages performed as per given schedule (budbreak on the second week of April, flowering on the third week of May, veraison on the third week of July) and harvesting pushed forward a few days (early September). Good grape quality from both the sanitary and ripening point of view. Jéroboam 3lt.

Camartina 2005

Querciabella’s flagship, Camartina 2005, is one of a handful of history-making wines that dramatically elevated the standing and prestige of Italian wine production on the world stage. This critically acclaimed Super Tuscan is only produced in optimal vintages, while small batch micro-vinification and an extremely limited bottling guarantee hand-crafted excellence. This silky smooth expression of Cabernet Sauvignon and Sangiovese embodies Querciabella’s quest for finesse, balance and sheer drinkability. The vineyards where the grapes for Camartina are grown have been organically farmed since 1988, and then fully converted to biodynamic techniques in 2000. The grapes are carefully selected in the vineyards and harvested in 8 kilo crates. They are de-stemmed, not crushed, then transferred into five-ton French oak fermenters. Here, alcoholic fermentation, maceration and malolactic fermentation take place. Macerations last about 12 days for the Sangiovese, and up to 20 days for the Cabernet Sauvignon. Afterwards, the wine is transferred to French barriques; 25% new oak. The different cépages undergo élevage for one year. At this stage, the best lots, selected through extensive tasting, are assembled into the final blend, which undergoes another year of élevage. After bottling, the wine rests for about six months before release, and is released no sooner than 30 months after harvest. Depending on the vintage, it reaches maturity between 4 and 7 years after harvest. The plateau lasts until at least 18 years after harvest. Camartina is made and released only in the best vintages. The wine was not produced in 1989, 1992, 1998, 2002 and 2009. No animal products or byproducts are used in the production of this wine, making it suitable for vegans and vegetarians.

After bottling, the wine rests for about six months before release, and is released no sooner than 30 months after harvest. Depending on the vintage, it reaches maturity between 4 and 7 years after harvest. The plateau lasts until at least 18 years after harvest. Camartina is made and released only in the best vintages. The wine was not produced in 1989, 1992, 1998, 2002 and 2009. No animal products or byproducts are used in the production of this wine, making it suitable for vegans and vegetarians.
