  • SWE PIEDMONT Vs TUSCANY BACKGROUNDER
    SWE PIEDMONT vs TUSCANY BACKGROUNDER ITALY Italy is a spirited, thriving, ancient enigma that unveils, yet hides, many faces. Invading Phoenicians, Greeks, Cathaginians, as well as native Etruscans and Romans left their imprints as did the Saracens, Visigoths, Normans, Austrian and Germans who succeeded them. As one of the world's top industrial nations, Italy offers a unique marriage of past and present, tradition blended with modern technology -- as exemplified by the Banfi winery and vineyard estate in Montalcino. Italy is 760 miles long and approximately 100 miles wide (150 at its widest point), an area of 116,303 square miles -- the combined area of Georgia and Florida. It is subdivided into 20 regions, and inhabited by more than 60 million people. Italy's climate is temperate, as it is surrounded on three sides by the sea, and protected from icy northern winds by the majestic sweep of alpine ranges. Winters are fairly mild, and summers are pleasant and enjoyable. NORTHWESTERN ITALY The northwest sector of Italy includes the greater part of the arc of the Alps and Apennines, from which the land slopes toward the Po River. The area is divided into five regions: Valle d'Aosta, Piedmont, Liguria, Lombardy and Emilia-Romagna. Like the topography, soil and climate, the types of wine produced in these areas vary considerably from one region to another. This part of Italy is extremely prosperous, since it includes the so-called industrial triangle, made up of the cities of Milan, Turin and Genoa, as well as the rich agricultural lands of the Po River and its tributaries.

  • 2007 Aleatico Passito Masseria Li Veli, Puglia, Italy
    2007 Aleatico Passito Masseria Li Veli, Puglia, Italy Product details Vintage: 2007 Drinking: 2017 Producer: Masseria Li Veli Alcohol: Region: Puglia Variety: Country: Italy Tasting notes An exceptionally complex and delicious sweet wine with an intense, dark bouquet of dried figs, sweet oranges and dates. On the palate Mediterranean herbs and sweet spices balance the rich, silky textures and dried apricot and dark prune flavours. This wine would be a perfect pairing with dry sweets such as almond based cakes or biscuits but also at the end of the meal with a good cigar! About the producer MASSERAI LI VELI WINE Puglia has always felt somewhat separate to the rest of Italy, particularly the southern half, the heel: Salento. This limestone peninsula has its own, independent character. Closer to Croatia, Montenegro, Albania and Greece than to Barolo or even Chianti, it’s an area with ancient influences from overseas, strange dialects such as Greki, from its time as an Ancient Greek colony, and unique architecture in the conical shape of trulli stone houses. It is also a region with its own distinct viticulture - the Primitivo grape is its most famous export (named Zinfandel in other parts of the world), but there are many other indigenous Puglian grape varieties too. Puglia has traditionally been a region of outliers, those going against the grain. The Masseria Li Veli winery was built by one such, and is now operated by a family with a similar philosophy. The Marquis Antonio de Viti de Marco, an internationally recognised professor of economics in Rome since the 1880s, refused to take an oath of loyalty to Mussolini’s Fascist party in 1931 and left the capital to follow his passion for winemaking instead.

  • Tasting Notes
    Tasting Notes Prosecco/Grape Origin: Veneto Our 2019 Prosecco is Crisp and light; it almost dances on your tongue! Made for us by a family friend in the Veneto Region of Italy. Italy’s unique “Glera” grape is used to make this enticing sparkler. Light citrus, creaminess and hints of green apple. Nice dry finish! Pairing: serve chilled as an aperitif, or an invigorating complement to fish and vegetarian fare. 2019 Gabriella Ranch Chardonnay/Grape Origin: Burgundy Our Gabriella Ranch Chardonnay is fermented in 100% stainless steel and very refreshing. It starts with crisp acidity, flavors remind us of a crisp green apple “right off the vine”. Vibrant, with a nice dry finish. Some apricot flavors on the back end. Clean and crisp for a day at the pool, beach or backyard. Pairing: shellfish, poached fish, cheeses, crisp green salads, and seafood pastas. 2019 Aleatico Rose/Grape Origin: Puglia Our rose opens with rose petals and a hint of melon on the nose. The light salmon color picks up the sun in the glass. Rosewater, honeydew and a hint of dry strawberry are the characteristics of this immensely popular wine. Perfect for a warm day at the pool/spa! Pairing: oysters, cold pastas, or our signature shrimp basket from our deli. 2019 Tocai Friulano /Grape Origin: Friuli The nose offers subtle floral notes with a touch of Asian pear and minerality. On the pallet, flavors of pear, cantaloupe and honey invite you in to explore this interesting varietal. A mid-palate crispness finishes with a hint of dried apricot and minerality.

  • Aglianico from Wikipedia, the Free Encyclopedia
    Aglianico From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Aglianico (pronounced [aʎˈʎaːniko], roughly "ahl-YAH-nee- koe") is a black grape grown in the Basilicata and Campania Aglianico regions of Italy. The vine originated in Greece and was Grape (Vitis) brought to the south of Italy by Greek settlers. The name may be a corruption of vitis hellenica, Latin for "Greek vine."[1] Another etymology posits a corruption of Apulianicum, the Latin name for the whole of southern Italy in the time of ancient Rome. During this period, it was the principal grape of the famous Falernian wine, the Roman equivalent of a first-growth wine today. Contents Aglianico from Taurasi prior to veraison Color of Black 1 History berry skin 2 Relationship to other grapes Also called Gnanico, Agliatica, Ellenico, 3 Wine regions Ellanico and Uva Nera 3.1 Other regions Origin Greece 4 Viticulture Notable Taurasi, Aglianico del Vulture 5 Wine styles wines 6 Synonyms Hazards Peronospera 7 References History The vine is believed to have first been cultivated in Greece by the Phoceans from an ancestral vine that ampelographers have not yet identified. From Greece it was brought to Italy by settlers to Cumae near modern-day Pozzuoli, and from there spread to various points in the regions of Campania and Basilicata. While still grown in Italy, the original Greek plantings seem to have disappeared.[2] In ancient Rome, the grape was the principal component of the world's earliest first-growth wine, Falernian.[1] Ruins from the Greek Along with a white grape known as Greco (today grown as Greco di Tufo), the grape settlement of Cumae.
