  • 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.

  • 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.

  • Antinori's Super Tuscans: Tignanello & Solaia
    ROBERSON WINE FINE WINE TASTINGS ANTINORI’S SUPER TUSCANS: TIGNANELLO & SOLAIA Thursday 28th April 2011 ANTINORI’S SUPER TUSCANS THE ESTATE The family The Antinori family are well entrenched as part of Tuscan wine royalty, their involvement in the trade dating back to 1385 when Giovanni di Pierso Antinori first joined the winemakers’ guild. For many years, as was the case with other famous wine families like the Frescobaldis and Ricasolis, they were involved in the buying and selling of wine estates as well as having interests in many other trades. In 1506 Nicolo Antinori purchased the beautiful palazzo in Florence which, to this day, remains the HQ of today’s Marchese Piero Antinori and his sprawling wine empire which encompasses 24 estates in 6 different countries. For hundreds of years after the Marchese and his descendents had moved in to the palazzo, the wines of the Antinori family established a reputation as an excellent source for Tuscan wines and they began accumulating land in some of the region’s most famed viticultural areas - in particular Chianti Classico. By 1863, the family business was doing well enough that the ‘Fattoria dei Marchesi Lodovico e Piero Antinori’ was formed in order to fully professionalise what they were doing and with the aim of “establishing some order among the various winegrowing activities developed by the previous generations of Antinoris since the XIV century.”. Before long, this new company had become one of the star performers and the family’s influence continued to grow as the wines were exported throughout the world. This ambassadorial role was continued by today’s Marchese, Piero, who is widely heralded as the most important man in Tuscan wine thanks to his wide reaching efforts to improve the quality and reputation of Tuscan wines.
