  • Tannat: Home Away from Home
    feature / vinifera / Tannat TANNAT: HOME AWAY FROM HOME From Tannat’s contested South American debut, back to its origins in southwest France, and forward to its latest outposts in New Zealand, Julia Harding MW charts the rise of this climate-sensitive and terroir- transparent grape variety, now producing a thrilling range of wines orget the tango and dulce de leche, the competitive debate now simmering concerns Tannat’s first home in South America. Those waving the Argentine flag claim that the variety was brought to their country toward the end of the 19th century byF the Basque farmer Juan Jáuregui (born in Irouleguy in 1812), who traveled from Bordeaux to Montevideo in 1835, moving north to Salto before crossing the River Uruguay and settling in Concordia in the province of Entre Ríos in southern Argentina, immediately opposite the Uruguayan town of Salto. According to Alberto Moroy, a specialist in Argentinian and Uruguayan history, writing in Uruguay’s national newspaper El Pais in March 2016, Jáuregui planted the first Tannat cuttings in Concepción in 1861, brought over from France by his nephew Pedro Jáuregui. They apparently came via his paternal grandfather from the estate of Louis XVI. (Moroy’s account is based on a book by Frenchman Alexis Pierre Louis Edouard Peiret, A visit to the Colonies of the Argentine Republic, published in Buenos Airesin 1889.) Jáuregui was also the first to make wine in Concordia. The story continues with another Basque, Don Pascual Harriague (1819–94), who emigrated from Lapurdi (Labourd) to Uruguay in 1838 and settled in Montevideo. In 1840 he moved north to Salto, which is where he became interested in farming and eventually in grape-growing.

Nuove prospettive per la comunità, pro- mosso dalla Fondazione CRC e realizzato da Fondazione Fitzcarraldo. Di seguito si specificano alcune considerazioni relative alla metodolo- gia adottata e alcune indicazioni utili alla consultazione dell’elenco. La scelta effettuata per disporre di una prima ricognizione di parte del patrimonio dismesso cuneese si è concretata, da un lato, in una ricerca e una lettura dei dati estrapolati dalle poche fonti disponibili e, dall’altro, nella raccolta di segnalazioni dirette da parte degli enti territoriali. Una mappatura efficace e puntuale in grado di fotografare dal punto di vista quantitativo e localizzativo tutte le opportunità e gli edifici in stato di abbandono e di sottoutilizzo in un territorio così vasto come la provincia di Cuneo non può prescindere da sopralluoghi mirati in tutti i 250 comuni del territorio. Per questo è più realistico definire questa parte della ricerca come una ricognizione “a maglie larghe” di un immenso patrimonio di- smesso che comprende una moltitudine di proprietari differenti. Le diverse fonti oggetto della presente ricognizione individuano beni le cui condizioni effettive non sono direttamente verificate, non essendo stati effettuati i sopralluoghi.

  • March 2021 Half Case Write Ups.Pages
    HIGHLAND FINE WINE MARCH 2021 HALF CASE- REDS ZINGARA MONTEPULCIANO 2017, ABRUZZO, ITALY $12.99 (MIXED) Abruzzo is known as the greenest region in Europe, with more than one-third of its nearly 4,200 square miles set aside for national parks and nature preserves. The remaining public lands have a reputation for diverse agricultural production – and notably cultivation of Montepulciano. The grape ranges widely throughout its native turf of Tuscany and, ironically, is not grown in the vineyards around the village of Montepulciano. Zingara is big – leading one to think it spent some time in oak. Not the case: this all stainless steel production shows off the power and character of Montepulciano with intense aromas of red fruits and spices. The palate is full, dry and harmonious with pleasant tannins. SANGUINHAL CEREJEIRAS TINTO 2018, LISBON, PORTUGAL $12.99 (MIXED) One of the oldest wineries in Lisbon, Portugal, Agricola Sanguinhal was founded In 1926, by Abel Pereira da Fonseca. He was an innovator, with a passion for his family, grape-growing, and winemaking. He planted Sanguinhal’s first vines on virgin land, which has been farmed without the use of any harsh chemicals ever since. Blend of Castelão, Aragonez (local name for Tempranillo) and Touriga Nacional. Rustic and approachable, this dark gem is full of crisp and floral plum, blueberry and herbal notes. VICUS AGLIANICO 2015, IRIPINA, ITALY $17.99 (MIXED) Italian wines are recognized around the world, but it is the specific personality of each region and commune that makes them all exciting to explore. It is here, in the Irpinia region, where the ancient Greeks began cultivating grape varieties suited to the volcanic soils before the Roman Empire had even begun.

  • Fit for Kings BAROLO, the Legendary Italian Grape of Yore, IS RIPE for ASIAN ROYALTY, WRITES JAMES SUCKLING
    Fit for Kings BAROLO, THE LEGENDARY ITALIAN GRAPE OF YORE, IS RIPE FOR ASIAN ROYALTY, WRITES JAMES SUCKLING taly’s great grape, barolo, has long been called the “king of wines and the wine of kings.” But the structured red still remains relatively undiscovered in most of Asia. “It’s still hard to convince most fine-wine lovers in Asia about Barolo, even though our region is very much like Burgundy with its mostly small vineyard holdings and Ifamily-owned wineries,” says Pio Boffa, the owner of Pio Cesare, one of the top names in Barolo. Boffa adds that most of the top wines are made in limited quantities – as little as a few hundred cases. Indeed, Barolo tastes like red Burgundy of Vosne-Romanée and Gevrey-Chambertin, in many ways. It has a lighter colour than considered two of the great wine towns in most other reds, a delicate and complex fruit the region; Barolo has its top villages as well, character, and bright and lively acidity. The including La Morra, Serralunga, Monforte d’Alba big difference is that the grape of Barolo, and Barolo itself. Furthermore, each village, Nebbiolo, is much more tannic compared to whether in Barolo or Burgundy, has its own top Burgundy’s pinot noir. Yet, better viticulture and vineyard sites. The French have codified this into winemaking in Barolo has produced reds with an appellation system, so grand crus such as La riper and softer tannins than in the past. Romanée in Vosne-Romanée and Chambertin in Paolo Damilano, whose family makes excellent Gevrey-Champertin are ranked among the best Barolos under its namesake, agrees.
