  • Langhe Doc Freisa
    LANGHE D.O.C FREISA – BRUSAIA "Brusaia", or "burned": so is the land where one of the oldest vines of Piedmont grows, suitable both in clay soils than those marly and for this reason particularly common in the different wine areas of Piedmont. The Langhe Freisa presents ruby red COLOR with violet hues, that foretaste a complex SMELL, winey, fruity, typically even with some hints of vegetables. The TASTE is dry, very tannic and astringent: for its distin- ctive acid component, Freisa is perfect in PAIRING to elabo- rate meals, tasty and fat, such as those of traditional Piedmontese cuisine. ORGANOLEPTIC CHARACTERISTICS AND DESCRIPTION LOCATION OF THE VINEYARDS:: Piemonte - Langhe, Santo Stefano Belbo (CN) METHOD: The vinification of Freisa is the classic red vinifi- cation. The grapes are crushed, de-stemmed and fermented in vats at a controlled temperature (28/30 ° C) for about 7-10 days, depending on the vintage. In this period about 2/3 pum- pingover are made to promote fermentation and its processes. After fermentation, a transfer is made to eliminate the lees, then the wine is aged for about 3 months in stainless steel vats and subsequently put in bottles. COLOR: Dark ruby red, with purple tones. SMELL: Complex aroma, typically fruity, persistent and vinous with some hints of vegetal scents. TASTE: Dry, tannic and astringent. FOOD MATCHING: Once widely used because it matched very well with the old Piedmont cuisine. Because of its high acidity and tannins, it is great to be combined with high-fat meals as it leaves the palate very clean.

A real example of innovation with a wide range, not only of wines, but also of spirits and sparkling wines, importing and applying all the necessary methods, such as "champenoise". Antonio Guerra was a pharmacist and a real visionary, who was able to understand and value the potential of the vine- yards of Bierzo, far before the appellations, the architectural & design wineries, the wine tours and the poetic back labels even existed. Applying revolutionary winemaking techniques and marketing, when the term wasn't probably even invented, Vinos Guerra showed the virtues of the wines from Bierzo to the world. Wines produced with old vineyards of Bierzo, along the Pilgrim Way to Santiago de Compostela, on sunny slopes that conceal Roman and Visigothic treasures. An emotional marketing always combined with the quality of the many products of the winery.

  • Domini Veneti Corvina Merlot Raudii 2015
    Lieber Fine Wines & Spirits 516-747-7989 Domini Veneti Corvina Merlot Raudii 2015 Product Info: Producer Name Cantina Valpolicella Negrar Product Name Domini Veneti Corvina Merlot Raudii Vintage 2015 Size 750ML / 6 Region Italy > Veneto > Veronese Classif/Style Igp Grape Corvina, Merlot Distributor Lieber Fine Wines & Spirits Item# #52671-15 Producer Since 1933, Cantina Valpolicella Negrar has told the story of men and women devoted to the crafting of quality wines: the finest, sincerest expression of a region home to more than 700 hectares of vineyards. Our grape-producers work with a smile, keen eye and dedication in a region that lingers in the heart. Cantina Valpolicella Negrar is historic cooperative winery with 230 members: families who work under the guidance of a highly qualified team as they live and breathe the poetry of a region that has been farmed with love for generations, the fruit of which becomes wine imbued with history and passion. Our work, however, is not merely growing grapes and making wine, as we have always conducted research alongside institutes and universities in a bid to use the latest technology to combine increasingly better quality with a lovingly crafted product. All the work in our vineyards is carried out by hand in order to leave the local environment and its biodiversity unharmed, continue the winemaking tradition of the Valpolicella Classica region, and be the driving force behind both social and cooperative projects. With great pride, generations of grape-producers have tended their vineyards and handed down the region's history and culture on behalf of Cantina Valpolicella Negrar.
