    BI BI GRAETZ CASAMATTA Bianco 2016 The “Crazy-House” Like most of Bibi Graetz wines, the name is very evocative, “Casa-Matta”: the “Crazy-House”, is our bright and approachable version of white Tuscan blend. The Vermentino brings freshness, the Moscato Bianco elevate the aromatics and Trebbiano increase the balance and the harmony of the blend. Winemaker’s Tasting Notes Vermentino 60%, Trebbiano 30%, Moscato Bianco 10% “When I drink Casamatta Bianco I’m immediately projected on the Tuscan coast. This is a wine that reflects the soil, the sun and the perfumes of Maremma. The first impression is the floral notes of Moscato, orange and peach flowers, then in the palate you have the citrus of the Vermentino, pear and exotic fruits” Bibi Graetz Vintage 2016: the growing season After a great 2015, the expectation of having another sensational vintage were very low, usually it’s hard to have 2 great vintages one after the other. What we realized with the 2016 is that this is not the case. This vintage is at the same level of 2015 and someone says it’s even better! Very cold winter, with some touches of snow guaranteed, with a mild and sunny spring, perfect conditions for the develop of the plants. The summer was a bit warmer then 2015 with only few days of rain in the beginning of August and the harvest period was fully insolated and anticipated to the 12th of September. Vinification and Ageing Casamatta Bianco is produced from the vineyards of Capalbio, south of Tuscany in Maremma. The grapes are hand-picked and fermented in stainless steel tanks, destammed and softpressed with dry ice.

  • Effect of Temperature and Duration of Maceration on Colour and Sensory Properties of Red Wine: a Review
    Effect of Temperature and Duration of Maceration on Colour and Sensory Properties of Red Wine: A Review Hasan Şener Biotechnology Branch, Institute of Natural and Applied Sciences, Ege University, Turkey Submitted for publication: December 2017 Accepted for publication: March 2018 Key words: Cold maceration, skin contact, total phenols, aroma, colour, wine The maceration process plays an important role in the composition of the colour and sensory properties of red wine by facilitating the extraction of phenolic and aromatic compounds found in grapes. This review summarises the key findings from a study of the literature associated with research on the effects of the temperature and duration of maceration on the phenolic content, colour and sensory properties of red wine. In the past, many researchers have reported that higher maceration temperatures increase the extraction of phenolic compounds and enhance red wine colour, but low-temperature pre-fermentative techniques have become more popular in recent years due to their positive effects on wine composition, including lower oxidation of anthocyanin pigments and aroma compounds, inhibition of undesirable enzymatic activities, and an environment that is less conductive to microbial growth. Macerations carried out at low temperature ranges (10°C to 15°C) result in red wines with the highest levels of total phenolic content, anthocyanin and colour intensity, and richer fruity, flowery and spicy aroma. The duration of maceration has also been shown to have significant effects on red wine phenolic compounds, colour properties and the relevant sensory attributes. Studies show that prolonged maceration leads to a stable red colour, as well as richer tannin content, polymeric pigments and astringency.

  • Colleleva.Pdf
    COLLELEVA Country: Italy Region: Marche Appellation(s): Verdicchio dei Castelli di Jesi Producer: Colleleva Founded: 1984 Annual Production: 12,500 cases Farming: Sustainable As with every region in Italy, the Marche is a world all unto itself. On Italy’s less traveled Adriatic coast, in between Emilia-Romagna and Abruzzo, the Marche is relatively sparsely populated, and largely composed of gently rolling hills, green with agriculture, that end along steep limestone bluffs on the coast. This is the home of the Verdicchio grape, whose name comes from the root verde, describing both the greenish hue of the grapes and the resulting wine. The Castelli di Jesi DOC is one of the largest of the zones in which Verdicchio is grown and surrounds the town of Jesi and its ancient fortifications. The vineyards of Colleleva (Colle “hill”, and si Leva, “rises”) lie on the heights of the Marche: about halfway between the Apennine mountains and the coastline of the Adriatic Sea. The combination of eastern sun exposure and the cooling winds from the Adriatic provide an optimal microclimate for balancing ripeness with fresh acidity in the grapes. Verdicchio, also known as Trebbiano di Soave, has been cultivated in the Marche for many centuries. It is capable of making vibrantly fresh and crisp white wines that are a wonderful accompaniment to seafood. The Riserva bottlings can age gracefully. From Colleleva we have a wine in the former camp. During a tasting trip in the Marche, their stainless steel tank vinified Verdicchio was one of the stars among many, many wines tasted. The perfume is entrancing—at once fresh and rounded, and typical of the grape.

  • Pre-Fermentation Maceration of Pinot Noir Wine
    PRE-FERMENTATION MACERATION OF PINOT NOIR WINE A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree , I of Master of Applied Science at Lincoln University by S. A. Goldsworthy Lincoln University 1993 i Abstract of a thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of M.Appl.Sc. PRE-FERMENTATION MACERATION OF PINOT NOIR WINE by S. A. Goldsworthy Two pre-fermentation treatments were investigated in Pinot noir (Vitis vinifera L.) wines. The effects of cold maceration and carbonic maceration on the wines' composition, colour parameters and sensory properties were examined. Cold maceration is a winemaking technique used to increase non-alcoholic extraction in Pinot noir winemaking prior to fermentation. It involves holding crushed grapes with approximately 100-150 mg r 1 S02 at low temperatures and is thought to increase the colour, aroma and flavour of the resulting wines. Carbonic maceration uses whole bunches that have undergone anaerobic metabolism to produce characteristically fruity and spicy wines. Pre-fermentation cold maceration produces wines that are higher in titratable acidity and monomeric anthocyanin content, but lower in colour density, hue and polymeric pigments. Reducing the maceration temperature below 10°C has little effect. Carbonic maceration produces wines that are lower in titratable acidity, monomeric anthocyanin content, and colour density but are higher in colour hue and amount of polymeric pigments. ii Quantitative descriptive analysis was used to define the effects of these pre-fermentation maceration treatments on the sensory characteristics of the resulting wine. Trained panel members found that there were no discernable sensory differences in the compositional parameters despite measurable chemical differences.
