Come Si Dice Sangiovese! ITALY ComeTHE si MANY dice FACES Sangiovese! OF SANGIOVESE . Chianti Classico, Castellare The Castellare property, located in Tuscany’s Castellina in Chianti, has become a virtual refuge for wildlife, including many of the birds pictured on their labels. With each vintage, the Castellare label shows a different bird, symbolizing the estate’s commitment to environmentally sound cultivation. This Castellare offering is comprised primarily of the local CHIANTI Sangiovese grape, Sangioveto. Morellino di Scansano, Fattoria le Pupille The local name for Sangiovese, the word Morellino is believed to take its name from the color of the Maremma horse known as “morello,” (brown) that were once used to pull carriages in the Scansano area. Blended from 90% Sangiovese, 5% Malvasia Nera and 5% Alicante, the wine is the perfect expression of the MONTEPULCIANO Scansano terroir. Vino Nobile di Montepulciano, Valdipiatta Valdipiatta is located in southeastern Tuscany, between Rome and Florence After a studied, careful analysis of soil conditions, clonal selections, vine densities, and pruning systems, the vineyards were replanted with the aim of producing Prugnolo MORELLINO Gentile (the local name for Sangiovese) grapes of exceptional caliber. Vino Nobile di Montepulciano is a blend of 95% DI SCANSANO Sangiovese (called Prugnolo Gentile in Montepulciano) and 5% Canaiolo Nero. INTERNATIONAL GRAPES WITHAccento AN Italiano .

SOUTH AGLIANICO (Ahl-yahn-eh-koe), Bisceglia Gudarra Aglianico del Vulture A specialty of Campania and Basilicata, located in Southern Italy.

CARRICANTE (Kare-e-kantay), Tenuta di Fessina A Pudarra Etna Bianco An ancient white variety of Mt. Etna that produces wines with crisp, refreshing citrus flavors and an underlying minerality. GAGLIOPPO (Guy-lee-oh-po), Librandi Duca San Felice Ciro Rosso Classico Superiore Riserva Local legend in Ciro Marina has it that it was a beverage offered as a toast to the gods by the Olympic champions of ancient Greece. It produces savory wines with tobacco, figs and cherries, and soft tannins. MANTONICO (Mahn-tohnic-oh), Librandi Efeso Mantonico Val di Neto A late ripening grape thought to be of Grecian origin that is grown in small amounts in the province of Cosenza, Calabria. Mantonico can be expressed as an herbaceous dry white wine with mineral notes or if vinified passito, shows exotic fruit notes. NEGROAMARO (Nay-gro-ah-mah-roh), Leone de Castris Salice Salentino Riserva Negroamaro literally translates to “black-bitter” and is the key grape in Salice Salentino-one of the best wines from Puglia-the heel of Italy. These wines are dark, filled with sweet spice, lush black fruit and silky tannins. NERELLO CAPUCCIO (Neh-reh-loh Cah-poo-chi-oh), Tenuta di Fessina Laeneo Sicilia A grape native to the Etna region in Sicily.

NERO D’AVOLA (Neh-roh Dah-vo-lah), Morgante Don Antonio Nero d’Avola Riserva Sicilia Also known as Calabrese in Calabria, Nero d’Avola is the most important and widely planted red grape variety in Sicily. When grown in higher elevations or cooler climates, the grape has the ability demonstrate an elegance and balance. PRIMITIVO (Pre-me-tee-voh), Botromagno Primitivo Murgia Rosso Introduced to Puglia in the 18th century Primitivo is equivalent to the Zinfandel grape that is widely planted throughout the US and is thought to have originated in Croatia. The name, Primitivo is derived from the terms primativus or primaticcio which refer to its tendency to ripen earlier than other local varieties. UVA DI TROIA, (Oo-vah dee Troy-ah), Botromagno Nero di Troia Murgia Rosso As the name suggests, this grape may have been brought to Southern Italy by way of the ancient city Troy, once located on what is now Northwestern Turkey. Uva di Troia yields full bodied reds with black cherry and spice. VERDECA, (Ver-day-kah), Leone de Castris Messapia Verdeca Bianco Salento Verdeca is a white grape variety that was widespread in Ancient Greece and is now found in Puglia in Southern Italy.

  • 2019 Roero Arneis Docg
    One of the legendary winemakers of the world, Bruno Giacosa crafted the most prestigious single-vineyard Barolo and Barbaresco wines during a career that spanned nearly eight decades. He joined the family business at the age of 15, representing the third generation of his Langhe winemaking family. Giacosa’s unfailing pursuit of perfection, his unrivaled palate and his intimate knowledge of vineyards in the Langhe quickly drew recognition and helped establish Piedmont as a leading wine region. In 1980, Giacosa began to acquire prime parcels in Serralunga d’Alba, La Morra and Barbaresco to produce wines that are rightly regarded as the finest expressions of Nebbiolo. His legacy rests with daughter Bruna, who continues to uphold her father’s winemaking philosophy to respect traditional techniques while using the best of modern technology. The goal is for each distinguished site to produce articulate, unique wines. 2019 ROERO ARNEIS DOCG Grape variety: Arneis Vineyards: Select vineyards in the villages of Vezza d’Alba, Monteu Roero, Santo Stefano Roero, Canale, Montà d’Alba Age of vines: 19-26 years Yield: 70 hL/ha Vinification: Stainless steel vats Length of fermentation: 25-30 days Malolactic fermentation: not developed Refinement: 4 months in stainless steel vats + 1 month in bottle Bottling: February 2020 Alcohol: 13.5% vol.

We now have 2.5 acres of Montepulciano planted to four different blocks on our winery ranch. This wine comes from our first vineyard block near the creek, and a block we planted in 2007. The vines are planted to 4’ X 6’ spacing on 101-14 and 420-A rootstock. We believe our climate in Dry Creek is similar to the cooler hillside sites in Abruzzo resulting in a Montepulciano with brighter fruit and acidity. VINTAGE/HARVEST: 2015 was another excellent vintage for Montepulciano. The 2015 growing season featured drought-like growing conditions in the spring and summer. The warm and dry conditions allowed us to harvest our Montepulciano grapes early (September 29 - October 10th) with ideal sugar/acid numbers. Montepulciano is a vigorous vine, thus we routinely drop about 40-50% of the crop for uniform ripening, depth, and complexity. WINEMAKING: We fermented this Montepulciano in small open top tanks. It was de-stemmed, lightly crushed, and kept below 60 degrees for several days prior to spontaneous fermentation with indigenous yeast.

  • Massimago “Duchessa Allegra” Garganega IGT
    Artisanal Cellars artisanalcellars.com [email protected] Massimago “Duchessa Allegra” Garganega IGT Winery: Massimago Category: Wine – Still – White Grape Variety: Garganega Region: Mezzane di Sotto / Veneto / Italy Vineyard: Estate Winery established: 2003 Feature: Organic Product Information Soil: Layers of limestone, marl and clay Elevation: 80 – 100 meters (262 to 330 feet) Vinification: 20% of the grapes are harvested before the main harvest to make sure to have a deep freshness in the wine. The rest is picked at perfect ripeness. Skin maceration takes place for a few days. After vinification, malolactic fermentation takes place in steel vats for 5 months. Planting Density: 3,000 vines/ha. Tasting Note: Yellowish straw color with pale green reflections. Tangy citrus aroma reminiscent of grapefruit and green apples. On the palate, crunchy clean, with fruity notes and high minerality which combine harmoniously to achieve perfect balance. “I wanted to give my Garganega the opportunity to express herself in a different way. I wanted her to finally become a real lady; she introduces herself with a citrus bouquet almost grapefruit like. The slow gentle drying of her grapes has concentrated 50 years of history into glorious essence drops. The perfect combination should be… in front of the fireplace with a fish soup.” Production: 5,000 – 8,000 bottles/ year Alc: 12.5% Producer Information Located in the Val di Mezzane valley (Eastern Valpolicella) over a hill surrounded by woods, this gorgeous estate is managed with creativity and strong determination by Camilla Rossi Chauvenet and her coworkers. The name of the winery is from the Latin "Maximum Agium", maximum benefit.

  • Colleleva.Pdf
    COLLELEVA Country: Italy Region: Marche Appellation(s): Verdicchio dei Castelli di Jesi Producer: Colleleva Founded: 1984 Annual Production: 12,500 cases Farming: Sustainable As with every region in Italy, the Marche is a world all unto itself. On Italy’s less traveled Adriatic coast, in between Emilia-Romagna and Abruzzo, the Marche is relatively sparsely populated, and largely composed of gently rolling hills, green with agriculture, that end along steep limestone bluffs on the coast. This is the home of the Verdicchio grape, whose name comes from the root verde, describing both the greenish hue of the grapes and the resulting wine. The Castelli di Jesi DOC is one of the largest of the zones in which Verdicchio is grown and surrounds the town of Jesi and its ancient fortifications. The vineyards of Colleleva (Colle “hill”, and si Leva, “rises”) lie on the heights of the Marche: about halfway between the Apennine mountains and the coastline of the Adriatic Sea. The combination of eastern sun exposure and the cooling winds from the Adriatic provide an optimal microclimate for balancing ripeness with fresh acidity in the grapes. Verdicchio, also known as Trebbiano di Soave, has been cultivated in the Marche for many centuries. It is capable of making vibrantly fresh and crisp white wines that are a wonderful accompaniment to seafood. The Riserva bottlings can age gracefully. From Colleleva we have a wine in the former camp. During a tasting trip in the Marche, their stainless steel tank vinified Verdicchio was one of the stars among many, many wines tasted. The perfume is entrancing—at once fresh and rounded, and typical of the grape.
