  • Longevi, Corposi, Capaci La Strada È Questa
    I GRANDI BIANCHI DA INVECCHIAMENTO Longevi, corposi, capaci La strada è questa Tutto cominciò in Frinii Venezia Giulia grazie alla spinta emotiva di alcuni produtto- ri interessati al recupero di qualità > La prima svolta tecnica fu l'uso dei fermentini di acciaio inox > Negli anni Sessanta il bianco spopolava, magli italiani chiedevano vini giovani e un po' vivaci > II Vintage Tunina di Jermannfu il primo ad andare contro- corrente > Oggi questo mercato conta oltre 600 etichette e nessun altro Paese al mondo o può vantare una varietà così ampia come la nostra CESARE PILLON Fu mezzo secolo fa, in Friuli, che per il vino bianco italiano scoccò la scintilla della rivolu- zione: una rivoluzione che l'avrebbe avviato sulla strada dell'eccellenza. Quella svolta era solo un primo passo, ma fece scalpore: mise fuori gioco i bianchi carichi di colore, alti di gradazione, piatti e senza fascino, e li sostituì con vini più moderni, color paglierino tenue, dai profumi fre- schi e fruttati, di facile digeribilità e dal gusto più vivace, pieno di verve. Che cos'era successo? Mario Schiopetto, uno dei padri del moderno vino friulano insieme a Livio e Marco Fellu- ga, rievocando anni dopo le motivazioni di quel rivolgimento, spiegò d'aver preso l'iniziativa spinto dal desiderio di recuperare la qualità dei vini del passato, trascinata verso il basso dal processo d'industrializzazione della regione: «I vigneti erano stati spopolati dal reclutamento di mano d'opera nelle fabbriche di sedie e di mobili sorte nell'Udinese», spiegò, «e i pochi vi- gnaioli rimasti, pilotati dalle industrie vinicole, chepagavano le uve secondo i gradi alcolici che ne avrebbero ricavato, coltivavano soltanto le varietà più remunerative, da cui si traevano vini ad alta gradazione, completamente deserti di qualità organolettiche».

  • 2014 Capitel Nicalo'
    2014 CAPITEL NICALO’ Valpolicella DOC Superiore This wine is made from red grape varieties grown on the Moraine Hills in the heart of Valpolicella. This wine is made in a traditional Veronese manner: raisin-drying of the grapes. 30% Corvina, 30% Corvinone, 30% Rondinella, 10% Rossignola, Oseleta, Negrara, Dindarella. The effect is partial dehydration: the grapes, placed in crates for about one month, lose about 8-10 % of their weight. This water loss naturally enriches the sugar contents of the grapes, their dry extract, and the colour of the wine. Pre-fermentation aromas are formed during drying. These subsequently blend with fermentation aromas and, above all, with tertiary aromas coming from aging the wine in wooden barrels. Vineyard Notes: Soil: moraine clay and limestone. Vine density: 5500 vines per hectare. Vineyard age: 20 years. Cultivation: Guyot. Pruning: 12 buds/plant. Production: 9000 kg/hectare. Winemaking Technique: Grape harvest: end of September, beginning of October. Grapes drying in fruit storage structure: 1 month. Alcoholic fermentation and maceration: 14 days/temperature 28° C. Malolactic fermentation Ageing: in Slavonian oak barrel for 1/1,5 years. Bottling and bottle ageing: 6 months. Description Of The Wine: Color: strong ruby red. Clear and transparent. Bouquet: intense and elegant: fruit aroma (currants, black cherries) with the vanilla and tobacco of Slavonian oak. Flavor: good body, good structure, lively acidity and alcohol content well balanced with tannins. The after taste confirms the notes in the bouquet. A complex and elegant wine. Suited for ageing: 7/10 years. Combinations: Can be enjoyed throughout the meal, from pasta to cheeses.

Vivino Rating: 4.4 Aerating: Carafe two hours before you start to enjoy it. Tasting Notes: Dark berries. The 2010 vintage is on the dry side of an Amarone, older vintages have been sweeter. Soft tannins, low acidity. I highly recommend to pair this wine with pasta or a nice steak. Owners: The Scamperle family is running a very nice restaurant in the center of Fumane – Alla Rosa Scamperle. Their pasta and bistecca dishes are very good, and in summer you can sit outside on a very nice terrace and taste their and other Amarone wines. The other passion of their son Andrea is producing wine from classic Valpolicella grapes. They cultivate five hectares in Fumane, San Pietro and Cavalo. Other wines from the winery: Valpolicella Classico and a Ripasso Winery: Provolo Società Agricola Semplice di Provolo Marco & C., Mezzane di Sotto Wine: Amarone della Valpolicella Vintage: 2010 Grapes: Corvina, Rondinella, Oseleta Price Category: $$.

Other wines from the winery: Gino (Rosso Veronese, named after the father of the owner), Campotorbian (Valpolicella Superiore Ripasso DOC) and Entis (Veronese IGT) are some of the nicest wines below €20.00 I tried so far.

  • Catalogo Prodotti Condizioni Generali
    CATALOGO PRODOTTI CONDIZIONI GENERALI La Famiglia Gregoletto vanta una lunga tradizione nel mondo del vino, come possono testimoniare alcuni documenti che indicano come, già all’inizio del Seicento, questa coltivasse la vite sulle colline di Premaor di Miane. Ad accentuare il carattere storico c’è l’edificio che ospita la cantina, ricavato da una struttura seicentesca. L’attività enoica della famiglia ha avuto un notevole impulso soprattutto nel dopoguerra, grazie a Luigi Bene e fedelmente Gregoletto, che ha iniziato a produrre vino secondo criteri di qualità e tipicità. Oggi l’azienda possiede diciotto ettari di terreno vitato, allocati in media e alta collina, nei comuni di Miane, San Pietro di Feletto e Refrontolo. La vendemmia avviene manualmente in momenti diversi in modo da ottenere la maturazione ideale dei grappoli (vendemmia differenziata). L’uva viene pigiata in giornata e i mosti ottenuti vengono tenuti divisi per luogo di provenienza. Nella primavera successiva alla vendemmia il Prosecco viene imbottigliato in tre diverse versioni: il tranquillo, che i Gregoletto hanno sempre considerato la gemma di famiglia, lo spumante Extra Dry ed il frizzante. Il Prosecco frizzante viene prodotto con il metodo della fermentazione naturale in bottiglia “sur lie”. L’azienda produce, oltre al Prosecco e al Verdiso dei Colli Trevigiani IGT, il Merlot dei Colli Trevigiani IGT, il Cabernet del Colli Trevigiani IGT, il Colli di Conegliano DOC Bianco e Rosso, il Manzoni Bianco dei Colli Trevigiani IGT e la Grappa di Prosecco. Su appuntamento è possibile assaggiare i vini prodotti dall’azienda, visitando così la sala degustazione, la cantina e la fornita biblioteca di libri storici legati alla enologia e alla viticultura.

Today, portion of Valpolicella, close to Lake Garda, whereas unfortunately, the panoramic view of the vineyards, from the Valpantena is in the east. The Classico zone is made up of foothills of the Lesini Mountains to the north, is spoilt in three main valleys: from west to east, Fumane, Marano and many places by a patchwork of unattractive industrial Negrar. All are open to the north and thus cool winds funnel development. Valpollicella literally means ‘valley of many down from the mountains. Fumane is the most open valley cellars’. This part of Italy is best known for production of and produces the ripest fruit. Marano is the most narrow, with large volumes of relatively cheap wine, both dry red wine fewer desirable southerly aspects.

  • Franck Peillot Profile
    Franck Peillot Profile The Bugey is small viticultural area whose fame doesn't extend much farther than the city of Lyons, where its sparkling Cerdon and Montagnieu have long been staples in bistros. Located in the eastern part of the Ain department, which is better known for its poulet de Bresse (the only French poultry with its own AOC) and its freshwater fish, the Bugey is a series of low altitude hills forming the most southern tip of the Jura range. In distance, it is closer to Savoie than to viticultural Jura, so, if mentioned at all, it is often considered a part of Savoie. Winemakers in the Bugey beg to differ. They feel that their region has a soil and a climate all its own, which produce wines found nowhere else in France (Cerdon being the less obscure example of Bugey's originality). Montagnieu is a village south of Cerdon, with premières côtes overlooking the Rhône valley, and most of its production is a white sparkling wine made from Chardonnay, Roussette de Savoie, Gamay and Jacquère. The grape Roussette is called Altesse locally, and it survives in the Bugey in a few patches of old vines, for it is not as hardy, reliable and productive as others. Only two young winemakers in Montagnieu, Franck Peillot and Benoît Dumont, produce still wines exclusively from this grape. By law, the wine, Roussette du Bugey, can contain any white varietal, in any proportion. That's why Peillot's is labelled 100% Altesse. Peillot, who took over his family estate five years ago, carries on the work of 4 generations before him.
