Tenuta le Velette Italy - Umbria When sitting on the terrace of the estate of Le Velette, with a glass of wine in hand, it is difficult to decide which masterpiece gives more pleasure, the striking view of the Orvieto Duomo or Corrado and Cecilia (brother and sister) Bottai’s Orvieto Classico. The family owned estate of Le Velette lies high on some of the most coveted land in the heart of the zone of Orvieto Classico. Well the tradition of wine making at the estate dates back to the Etruscans, the current family has been making wine there since the 1870s. The Bottais are not people to sit on their ancient and noble laurels. They have worked hard to establish an intelligent equilibrium between tradition and modern enological techniques. Here, no grapes or wine is bought. Everything that goes into the bottle is carefully and selectively harvested from their own 90 hectares (222 acres) of vineyards. So dedicated are they to quality Founded that they allow no more than 60 minutes at most to pass from when the grapes are picked to when they are pressed. 1870 Orvieto should be a careful and harmonious blending of several grape Wine Production Area types, the percentages of which are strictly dictated by DOC law. The Italy - Umbria - Orvieto DOC Bottais use the minimum percentage of a select clone of Procanico (Trebbiano) and the maximum percentages of Grechetto and Owners Drupeggio, which are the grapes that really give the wine its body and Corrado Bottai structure. They also use the maximum allowable of Verdello, which adds finesse and balance, and then add just a touch of Malvasia for Winemaker dimension.

The story begins with Pietro Emilio Abbona who after having introduced the wine from Barolo to the most important world wide expositions of the late 1800’s and early 1900’s, with the help of his sisters Marina and Celestina, continued for the rest of the century to build up the winery presenting it to the world markets and therefore contributing to make Barolo wine and its town the legend it is now, dear to all gourmets and lovers of quality.

Four Wines from Central Italy
Four Wines from Central Italy These wines are all from the heart of mainland Italy, roughly halfway between the northern alpine mountains and the southern tip reaching towards Africa. They have been selected to try to show something of the range and diversity of Italian wines and to reflect particular indigenous qualities and traditions. The huge variety of Italian wine is a consequence of over 350 grapes officially granted ‘authorised’ status and a long shoreline and extensive mountains and foothills which provide different altitudes, climates and soil conditions. This selection shows the differences that can be found within a fairly narrow latitudinal range and from a limited number of grape varieties. These differences can be quite pronounced, even from wines made from the same grape. Each wine has been designated either DOC (Denominazione di Origine Controllata – Controlled Designation of Origin) or DOCG (Denominazione di Origine e Garantita – Controlled and Guaranteed Designation of Origin). The DOG designation system was launched in 1963. Later, the DOCG classification was introduced to provide a top tier of Italian wines. In 2014 there were 332 DOCs and 73 DOCGs. The top level was special because government officials would actually taste the final wines. If they passed the taste test, a band would be affixed around the bottle’s neck to signify approval and prevent anyone tampering with the wine once it had achieved its designation. Within both categories the term ‘Classico’ is used to identify wines produced in the historically oldest part of the designated region according to strict traditional winemaking methods. ‘Classico’ is an indicator of the quality of a wine and suggests that the wine is better than one that does not include this term on its label.

Presentazione Standard Di Powerpoint
Tenuta Montauto extends for 200 hectares in one of the most suggestive sceneries of the Tuscan Maremma. It is located 10 km from the coast of Capalbio, a proximity that gives important thermal excursions, on clayey hills rich in quartz, at an altitude of 200 m above sea level. • The management of vineyards is organic and harvesting is done by hand: they work the vineyards mechanically, they cut the grass still with hoe and they use sulfites with organic parameters. All the electricity they use comes from renewable sources. They have a maniacal care and attention to bring cleanliness, freshness and enhance the minerality of their wines that are also vegan. One word to describe their wines? "Artisanal." Montauto winery offers the possibility to organize guided tours that allow all wine lovers to get closer to the fascinating world of wine. You will be accompanied in a tour that will start from the winery, where it will be explained the various phases of wine production, from harvesting to vinification, from aging to bottling. At the end of the tour you will be accompanied in the room located above the winery where the tasting of their products will take place. Fancy tasting: Tasting of 4 wines and oil IGP Toscano, all accompanied by platters of typical products. WINE • *ENOS I: Blend of 100% Sauvignon (old vines).

TORGIANO MONTEFALCO CANTINE GIORGIO LUNGAROTTI SRL Viia Giorgio Lungarotti, 16 06089 Torgiano (Perugia) ITALIA Tel: 075 988661 - Fax: 075 9886650 www.lungarotti.it TENUTA DI TORGIANO TERRE D’UMBRIA TENUTA DI MONTEFALCO Wine: a great passion Lungarotti is wine. And along with wine, the land, vines, work and creativity: a passion with a long history, beginning in Torgiano at the end of the 1950’s and advancing with the Montefalco winery, founded more than a decade ago. In the world, Lungarotti is a synonym of Umbrian wine. It is distinguished by its bond with the territory and its dynamism in enhancing it, by respect for tradi- tions and outlook towards the future. These are the “golden rules” of the two sisters, Chiara and Teresa, who guide it: quality, respect for the environment, research, innovation, social responsibility. Total quality can be reached only by starting in the vineyard: each wine is produced in dedicated vineyards and is calibrated according to soil type and microclimate in order to obtain the desired - not random - characteristics, both for the easy-to-drink wines and for the great “cru’s”. The most prized vine- yards produce the premium-classic reserve wines of Tenute di Torgiano and Montefalco, as well as those under the Terre d’Umbria brand, whose blends represent a synthesis of this fascinating land. Be they classic or innovative, they all transmit the essence of Umbria and its quality of life. Thanks to moderate use of wood aging and long bottle aging, these wines are elegant and harmonious, with a long potential for evolution: because quality is not only for the present but for always.
