TENIMENTI FAMIGLIA CAVALLERO CANTINE ST. AGATA PIEDMONT Tenimenti Famiglia Cavallero is an ambitious project that encompasses and em- braces Cantine Sant'Agata, Ka Fenice and Praeclara. The Cavallero family has decided to concentrate on two particular areas, Scur- zolengo and Barolo, both yielding products that compliment each other well. The main grape varieties are Ruchè, Grignolino, Barbera and Nebbiolo represent- ing the main products of the winery, such as Ruchè 'Na Vota, Grignolino Miraval- le, Barbera d'Asti Baby, Barbera d'Asti Superiore Altea and Cavalè and now the Barolo Bussia. 'Na Vota RUCHE’ DI CASTAGNOLE MONFERRATO D.O.C. In Piedmontese dialect, the expression “ ‘Na vota” has a double meaning: the first, is the beginning of many tales such as “c’era una volta” (once upon a time); the second, can be interpreted as a challenge. These two words were uttered back in 1900 when the brothers Cavallero, for the first time, put in commerce this label. Until then, the grape Ruché, which is slightly aromatic, was produced only as des- sert wine. It was the beginning of a new trend. The wine vinified that year was of excellent quality and entered worthily in the Piedmontese wines elite. Today, it is produced blending the grapes of four vineyards with different charac- teristics. The aim is to give to the consumer a tasting and olfactory continuity. Across the years, this bottle became an undoubted term of comparison, an ideal match with modern life and an inviting curiosity to the table. CATEGORY. Still red. GRAPE. 100% Ruchè di Castagnole Monferrato. VINIFICATION AND MATURATION. As the clusters are de-stemmed and gently pressed, very little SO2 is utilized. The must ferments on the skins at 28- 30°C for 14-16 days, with daily punchdowns, then the wine goes through malolac- tic in stainless steel tanks. “The more you know about wine, the more you’ll want to know about us.” www.ahdvintners.com; (586) 552-1414 .

FOR!NAl), c. ARMAN!Nül), M. CASTIN02) and M. UBIGLI2) Multivariable Datenanalyse zur Sortenklassifizierung von Weinen Zusammenfassung : Die Analysendaten von 178 Weinen aus Piemont, die drei ver schiedenen Rebsorten angehörten (Barbera, Grignolino, Barolo), wurden mit Hilfe der multivariab len Datenanalyse ausgewertet, um Modelle der Sortencharakteristik zu erstellen und untypische Proben auszusondern. Durch Auswahl der Merkmale („Fisher-Gewichte") blieben von den ursprünglich 28 chemischen und physikalisch-chemischen Variablen aufgrund ihrer hohen ein dimensionalen Unterscheidbarkeit 8 Variable übrig. Auf den achtdimensionalen Datensatz wurden verschiedene Klassifizierungsmethoden (KNN, LDA, PCA) und Techniken statistischer Modelle (Bayes-Statistik, SIMCA) angewandt; die Klassifizierbarkeit lag bei 98 %. K e y wo r d s : wine, analysis, characteristic, variety of vine, statistics, Italy. Introduction All the factors helping in the production of certified-origin wines must comply with several laws and regulations which impose various limitations. These limitations do not apply to the final product, they are concerned with the vine-growing soil, the grape yield per hectare, the harvest time, and so on. They are in fact control procedures from vine growing to wine making which aim at assuring the production of wines showing constantly the distinctive features which give them the V.Q.P.R.D. appellation (vins de qualite produits dans des regions determinees). Beside the above, other laws command the wine ready to be sold to conform to fixed standards.

Crotin “San Patelu” Grignolino D’Asti DOC
Artisanal Cellars artisanalcellars.com [email protected] Crotin “San Patelu” Grignolino d’Asti DOC Winery: Crotin 1897 Category: Wine – Still – Red Grape Variety: Grignolino Region: Monferrato/ Piemonte/ Italy Vineyard: on the hills of Viarigi commonwealth community Feature: Organic Product Information Soil: Red marine soil, similar to clay, with lots of minerality Elevation: 290 meters (950 feet) Age of vines: 15 years Vinification: Full manual harvest in small boxes. Destemming and crushing. Classic fermentation in stainless steel vats. Duration of maceration is 7 days. Aged for 6 months in stainless steel vats. Tasting Note: A really fine example of the historic indigenous grape Grignolino. Light to medium bodied with a beautiful red color, red fruit character, mouthwatering acidity and exceptionally elegant floral notes, herbs and expressive minerality. Wine Enthusiast: “Grignolino is common around Piedmont, is elusive beyond Italy, though it’s a darling of American sommeliers. The grape has two DOCs: Grignolino d’Asti and Grignolino del Monferrato Casalese. Grignolino typically has high tannins and acidity, pale color and fabulous aromas of violets, roses and red berries.” "grignole" translates to "many pips"/ seeds, which results to more tannins. Production: 5,000 bottles/ year Producer Information The name Crotin 1897 refers to all the years Daniela’s land has been in her family. She met her Calabrian husband in veterinary school--they both practice natural medicine for animals--and their three boys grew up in Calabria, by the sea. Going back home to make organic wine from the native grapes of Piemonte has been a family affair. Now grown, the three Russo brothers, Federico, Marcello and Corrado, work together, managing the vineyards, the cellar, and the B&B in their charming family home.

GRIGNOLINO D'asti D.O.C. One of the Oldest Indigenous Varieties In
RUBER GRIGNOLINO D’ASTI D.O.C. One of the oldest indigenous varieties in the Monferrato, it has been known since the Middle Ages as Barbesino, but it actually takes its name from the dialect word “gragnola”, which refers to the seeds, which are very numerous in this grape. The long maturing with skin contact without the seeds brings out the full aroma of dried roses and the aromatic complexities of wild strawberry, wild berries and, in particular, raspberries. The taste profile reveals the personality of a wine that is uninhibited and versatile in terms of food pairing, fairly mouth-filling, with tannins that are present but not aggressive, a suitably crisp, dry finish, and a good follow-through with the fruity notes that appear in the bouquet. Serve at 17°-18°C. Appellation Vintage Grignolino D’Asti D.O.C. 2019 Production Area Quantity produced Montemagno (Asti) - Monferrato N° 9.780 Variety: 100% Grignolino d’Asti Soil / Vineyard Calcareous clay with slightly silty marls and alkaline pH with considerable water retention. The average age of the vines is 30 years, Guyot trained, facing south, southwest. Vinification / Ageing Crushing-destemming with fermentation and brief maceration to ensure light extraction of astringent tannins. Fermentation takes place at a controlled temperature of 22°C. Colours / Highlights Intense, brilliant red. Fragrance Notes of dried rose, wild strawberries and wild berries. Palate Fairly mouth-filling, with a tannin that is present but not aggressive, a dry, crisp finish, with a good, fruit-rich follow-through on the notes that appear in the bouquet.

Piedmont (Piemonte)
Piedmont (Piemonte) growing occurs south of the Po Valley, in the provinces of Asti, Alessandria, and Cuneo. Within these provinces, the Monferrato and Langhe hills are planted with vineyards. Soils are predominantly calcareous marl and sandstone with varying percentages of clay and sand, Piedmont has a continental climate and the Alps to the north produce effect, In the Langhe and Monferrato hills, many of the best south facing vineyards planted with Nebbiolo are known as in the Piedmontese dialect,. Varietals Nebbiolo, is thin-skinned & produces wines of high acidity and tannin. The late-ripening Nebbiolo, together with Dolcetto and Barbera are the principal Piedmontese red grapes. Dolcetto, is the earliest to ripen and produces tannic, fruity wines, lower in acid and are suited to producing wines suitable for youthful consumption. Barbera is widely planted red grape. It has high acidity but low tannin. Other lesser indigenous red grapes of Piedmont include Brachetto, Grignolino, Ruchè, Croatina, Vespolina, and Freisa. varietal and is used in the production of the sparkling wines of Asti. Cortese, Arneis, Erbaluce and Favorita (Vermentino) are the other white grapes of the region,( in diminishing order of importance.) International grapes Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay, Merlot, Syrah, Sauvignon Blanc, have been planted since the 1980s, although usage of such non-traditional grapes is limited to the less-specific DOCs and IGP wines. Piedmont has more DOC zones than any other wine region in Italy at the close of 2010, there were 16 DOCGs and over The most prestigious DOCGs in Piedmont are Barolo & Barbaresco, which are located along the Tanaro River, an area surrounded by the larger Langhe DOC.

Montalbera Grignolino D'asti Grigne (2013), a Light, Refreshing Red from Northern Italy
SURPRISINGWINES.COM – 9 APRILE 2016 Montalbera Grignolino d'Asti Grigne (2013), A Light, Refreshing Red From Northern Italy Montalbera Grignolino d'Asti Grigne 2013 is a northern Italian light red wine that still has a great deal "going on." There is fairly high acidity and tannins lurking under the surface in this light and fresh wine. You could even serve it cold. Fruit wise there is a hint of red cherry and maybe other red fruits like strawberry. My first thought was "candied cherry." This wasn't any indication of sweetness but rather an impression, a sense of color rather than what candied cherry would taste like. This wine doesn't change rapidly with exposure to air and even over time it changes only slightly. There is complexity here, fruit, acidity and tannins. The tannins are there from the first taste to the finish but they are understated and sneaky in this wine. The acidity and red fruit make this a really refreshing experience. The wine is 100 percent grignolino and reminds a little of another grape from northern Italy, schiava. Both are light bright wines but they also have more to them than you expect from a light red. This wine is something to drink on its own or with food. With food I might suggest lighter fare--pasta with red sauce or white pizza. I sometimes recommend it to people eating something you would normally serve with white wine. Grignolino is from the Piedmont area in the north of Italy. Apparently the name is refers to the high number of seeds the grape has which often caused the light wine to be disproportionately tannic.
