EAN:
8034028040122Category: Alcoholic Beverages
With a name like that, it's hard not to feel all the warmth of the most authentic Sicily. Amuri di Fimmina and Amuri di Matri is an elegant rosé proposed by Al-Cantìra, produced from Nerello Mascalese grapes that come from vineyards about 16 years old. A wine with a light but brilliant pink colour, the nose guarantees an explosion of scents. Notes of yellow-fleshed fruit, such as peach and apricot, then small red fruits and hints of citrus. In the mouth, however, it is above all savoury and well-balanced. The citrus notes return, accompanied this time by passion fruit. A wine made to be enjoyed, right down to the last glass. On the table, of course, perhaps paired with elegant fish or shellfish dishes. Excellent as an aperitif Because the love of a "fimmina" (or a matri) must never be renounced.

Today's Théophile Champagne is a worthy successor to the Champagne "Théo" which enjoyed glory in the 1930s, when it was the Champagne of the artists and night owls of Montparnasse. Today Théophile is elaborated by Louis Roederer respecting the style that determined its success. It should not be considered a "second wine" by Louis Roederer. The latter wines are very often genetically very similar to their great inspiration, while Théophile boasts a personal "recipe" that distinguishes it from the other wines of the Louis Roederer range.

Gem & Bolt Mezcal is made using espadín agave, but that's not all - it also features damiana, a traditional Mexican herb. The name comes from a story of how Mezcal came to be: a lightning bolt struck an agave piña, which roasted and fermented the sugars and created Mezcal. Once revered by the Aztecs, damiana was believed to relax the soul. Less smoky than standard mescal, this is a sweet, floral spirit with an undercurrent of bitter herb and savoury notes.

A historical label of the terroir. This wine was initially produced in the 1960s and 1970s by the estate Villa del Ferro Lazzarini, from whom we recently purchased their vineyards.This wine is dedicated to its creator Alfredo Lazzarini; it holds a history of the Colli Berici that must not be forgotten.One of the first vintages produced by Alfredo Lazzarini was defined by the great wine and gastronomic journalist Luigi Veronelli as an unimaginable wine, comparable because of its esoteric charm to the best Paulliac. Veronelli considered the Colli Berici as one of the best areas for the Bordeaux varieties, alongside the Bolgheri area.This wine is a selection of the original Merlot pergola vineyard, which is 50 years old.

Brand: Eugenio Collavini Viticoltori
EAN:
8015957351008Category: Alcoholic Beverages
This is not simply a wine from Eugenio Collavini's cellar. This is the very symbol of the Friuli winery. It is the product that has inspired many winemakers, in the hope of finding a valid "territorial" alternative to Prosecco. It is made from pure Ribolla Gialla grapes, carefully selected to preserve aromaticity and freshness, but above all transformed with the so-called "Metodo Collavini". After an initial fermentation, partly in steel and partly in barriques, the base wine is re-fermented in large horizontal autoclaves. At the end of this second fermentation, however, the wine is not immediately bottled but continues with a phase of maturation "sur lie", i.e. on its own noble lees, for a period of "never less than 30 lunar cycles". At that point, at least another 12 months in the bottle are required to complete the long ageing process. Excellent as an aperitif, Ribolla Brut is extremely versatile and suitable for a thousand occasions. Also for the whole meal, properly paired with delicate fish or shellfish dishes.

Impossible not to love it. When it is good, and this really is, Moscato is the best companion for every after-dinner drink. Delicately sweet, moderately alcoholic, it is the wine that everyone really likes. In this particular interpretation of Pelassa, the Moscato comes from the estate's vineyards located at around 330 metres above sea level. Harvested between 10 and 15 September, this sweet white wine is the result of super careful processing of the best grapes, which undergo a delicate transformation lasting about 4 days. Golden yellow in colour, this Muscat presents a typical, elegant and aromatic bouquet. In the mouth, it is sweet, harmonious and endowed with excellent freshness. A rich wine with remarkable balance, it is excellent with desserts. For those with a sweet tooth, however, it is also fabulous on its own, as a meditation wine, perfect for late evenings while chatting. For an unusual pairing, on the other hand, you could also try serving it with savoury cheeses such as Gorgonzola or Castelmagno.

Brand: Notte Rossa - Terre Di Sava
EAN:
8023354035612Category: Alcoholic Beverages
It's called Basciì and, technically, it's a red wine of Italy. It is one of those products that, even though it does not have a specific denomination, tells the story of its territory of origin better than many others. Basciì is produced from a blend of different indigenous Salento grapes, including of course Primitivo and Negramaro. All grapes come from ancient local vineyards, still bred to sapling, where every process requires skill and hard work. The grapes are harvested slightly overripe, that is, after they have reached the perfect state of ripeness but before they wither and dehydrate excessively. This guarantees a great concentration of sugars in the must from which a rich and structured wine will be produced, pleasantly warm and deeply Apulian. Ageing in barrique for a period of about 12 months guarantees elegance and complexity on the nose and in the mouth.

Brand: Piccini 1882
Category: Alcoholic Beverages
Tuscany, Montalcino hill. It is here that the Sangiovese grapes, cultivated on soils rich in limestone, clay and schist, reach their qualitative apex. It is not by chance that Brunello di Montalcino DOCG, the world's best-loved Italian red wine, is born here. In this area, the Piccini family conducts vineyards at about 350 metres above sea level. A little corner of paradise where the breezes from the sea help to mitigate the summer heat. The constant movement of air also reduces the humidity level in the vineyards, sheltering the grapes from common fungal diseases. Having reached their ideal ripening point, the grapes are harvested by hand and scrupulously selected. Vinification takes place at a controlled temperature followed by a long maceration on the skins. Once this phase is over, the delicate maturation in the cellar begins. This is a process that lasts for about 5 years, of which at least 36 months in oak barrels. The result is a very classy red, characterised by aromas of dried fruit, sultanas and cane sugar. In the mouth it is full-bodied, with ripe tannins and intense notes of chocolate, coffee and more dried fruit on the finish. A great wine for ageing, it is good today but can safely age for a long time in the cellar. At the table it goes well with roasts, game and mature cheeses.

Category: Alcoholic Beverages
A rosé bubble that is sure not to leave the many (many) fans of the type indifferent. We are talking about Charpentier's Rosé Réserve Brut Champagne. Pleasantly organic bubble that comes from the largest region of Champagne. We are obviously talking about the Vallée de la Marne and to be precise from the village of Villers-sous-Chatillon. Pinot Noir for the very large part (about 80%) and Pinot Meunier for the remainder, vinification begins with an initial alcoholic fermentation in thermoregulated vats, followed by malolactic fermentation and subsequent blending with reserve wines. To achieve the rosé color, a small percentage of red wine, no more than 11 percent, is also added to the blend in this house. Red wine, in all cases, is also vinified by the winery, using Pinot Meunier and Pinot Noir harvested from old vineyards over 50 years old. After bottling, the aging phase on the lees continues for about 30 to 36 months. In the glass, we discover a wine characterized by a beautiful coppery rose gold color, almost salmon, with fine, nervous and persistent bubbles. The nose is promising and fruity, with fresh fruit notes reminiscent of black currant, quince and fresh flowers. In the mouth, then, sharp hints of red fruits, cherry and black currant, good body and character. A Champagne with a pleasantly gastronomic taste, this Rosé does not struggle to equally accompany fish and meat dishes.

An important white. One of those whites that doesn't make a bad impression even when paired with a meat dish, as long as it's not overly flavorful. This is Langhe DOC Bianco "Trés Plus", 85% Chardonnay with an addition of Nascetta grapes. A wine that comes from a particular process. After the harvest and the pressing, the fermentation is started in steel containers at controlled temperature. After a while, however, when the must reaches three degrees alcohol, it is transferred to wooden barrels where it completes its fermentation. This is followed by refinement in the bottle before release. The result is a white wine with good body and great longevity. A wine that presents itself in the glass with a beautiful deep yellow color. Intense and rich aromas that range from fruity sensations to citrus notes of great finesse. In the mouth it is ample and enjoyable. A great wine that to be appreciated at its best should not be served too cool and above all should be sipped slowly. No rush!

When it comes to Barolo, things get serious. Because this great wine of the Langa is not a simple product of its land. It's more of a passion and a religion at the same time. Each manufacturer follows its own liturgy. There are those who believe that Barolo should be the purest expression of a single vineyard, and there are those, on the other hand, who bottle wine that is the result of blending different plots, with different soils, exposures, and altitudes. Like a perfumer who aims to create the perfect essence, so it is for the Langa winemaker seeking the perfect balance and pleasantness of drinking. Caviòt is the result of this philosophy. A Barolo able to show its best already, at a young age. After two years of refinement in large casks, this wine has a beautiful ruby colour with light garnet reflections. The nose reveals the typical notes of Nebbiolo that recall flowers and in particular violets and roses. Then small red fruits and, on the finish, a pleasant balsamic sensation. In the mouth the texture is thick and silky. A wine with great balance in all its components, with soft and velvety tannins.

It is not a Champagne. But it's really close. Because in this case we are talking about a bottle that belongs to the Crémant de Bourgogne appellation. Established in 1975, this appellation covers a vast territory encompassing all of Burgundy, from Chablis, to Beaujolais, via Côtes de Nuits and Côtes de Beaune. Mythical territories where the grapes ripen in ideal conditions, rooted in soils unique in complexity, and where the mastery of the producers allow them to develop bubbles of extreme finesse, rich and elegant. Maison du Cremant, in particular, offers this cuvée of 50 percent Chardonnay, with 30 percent Pinot Noir, Gamay and Aligoté. The grapes are pressed as soon as they arrive at the winery, and alcoholic fermentation is carried out in thermoregulated stainless steel vats. Then, after blending, the second fermentation takes place in the bottle from 18 to 36 months. The result is a sparkling wine characterized by a beautiful light gold color, made brighter by dense chains of fine bubbles. Aromas of white flowers, orange blossom and brioche are appreciated on the nose. In the mouth, the acidity is ideal and ensures perfect wine balance. To uncork, well chilled, to accompany a risotto or grilled fish.

Brand: Tenute Dello Jato
Category: Alcoholic Beverages
It is made from grapes cultivated on the slopes of Sicily's Etna volcano. We are talking about Tenute dello Jato's Etna Rosso DOC, a structured red wine that well represents the strength and minerality of its land of origin. The Etna volcano, with its imposing presence, not only offers an enchanting natural panorama but, with its unique characteristics, has a decisive influence on the character of this wine. The vineyards here are located 800 metres above sea level and are rooted in mineral-rich soils. The climate here is cool and mountainous, with beneficial temperature fluctuations between day and night that contribute to the wine's elegance and aromatic complexity. Nerello Mascalese (70%) and Nerello Cappuccio (30%), these two indigenous grape varieties are perfectly adapted to the volcanic soil and climate conditions. Nerello Mascalese, in particular, gives the wine structure, body and tannins, while Nerello Cappuccio brings freshness, acidity and fruity notes. Vinification is carried out with respect for the grapes and begins with crushing and destemming. The must obtained remains in contact with the skins to acquire the right colour. Fermentation and soft pressing follow. The wine then undergoes what is known as malolactic fermentation and continues its maturation in steel, in contact with its fine lees until the end of November. It is then transferred to wooden barrels for the final stage of maturation. In the glass, one discovers a wine characterised by a beautiful intense ruby red colour with garnet hues. On the nose, a complex and elegant bouquet with aromas of berries, including blackberry, currant and blueberry, enriched by balsamic, mineral and spicy nuances. In the mouth, it conquers with its structure, harmony and beautiful persistence. The tannins, well present, are integrated and very fine.

In Italy, or rather outside South Tyrol, the Kerner grape variety is not so common. And that is a pity. That's why when you happen to come across a bottle like this, offered by Konrad Oberhofer, you should immediately put it in your cart. Kerner is a cross of Schiava and Riesling, born in Weinsberg, Germany, around 1930. An ideal variety for growing on the steep slopes of South Tyrol, Kerner is also quite common in Austria, as well as in Germany, of course. The grapes are lightly crushed and the skins remain in contact with the must for about 8 hours before pressing. The must is then separated from the residues through natural precipitation and then left to ferment at a controlled temperature. Straw yellow in colour with greenish highlights, it is intense and slightly spicy with a hint of muscat on the palate. Extremely typical in its recognition, reminiscent of peach and apricot scents, it has a fresh and long finish with balanced acidity. Perfect as an aperitif, it goes well with white meats, roasts and first courses with meat sauces.

Made exclusively from Sangiovese grapes, the vines are cultivated on predominantly clayey and skeleton-rich soils, benefiting from ideal climatic conditions. The vinification of Rosso di Montalcino DOC also follows a traditional and careful process. Alcoholic fermentation and maceration of the skins for a period of 18-20 days at a controlled temperature, in large conical Slavonian oak vats. Spontaneous malolactic fermentation and, above all, long ageing in Slavonian oak casks of varying capacity from 20 to 32 hectolitres for a period of 6-10 months. Then, once bottled, the Rosso di Montalcino rests for at least another 3-4 months before being put on the market. The result ‘ A beautiful intense ruby colour, with fresh and lively aromas.

With a colour reminiscent of rose petals and reflections between ruby and pomegranate, this sparkling wine surprises with a lively and complex bouquet. It is easy to perceive right away the rich array of berries, with a predominance of blueberries and cherries. In the mouth it is initially round and warm, before becoming fragrant and refreshing. Excellent with the whole meal, it is a bubble that is not afraid of combinations of a certain depth. Excellent with fish, it also accompanies meat-based dishes that are not overly structured.

Harvested by hand, spontaneously fermented in cement tanks, lightly pressed and matured for three years in large oak barrels. Nothing is left to chance. In fact, there are no protests about quality! Or rather, it is not discussed. Ruby red colour with violet reflections. The nose is persistent, ethereal, with hints of flowers such as roses and violets and fresh fruit. Then spices. In the mouth it is dry, harmonious, velvety, full-bodied, austere and generous. As always in these cases, the perfect pairing calls for the great classics of Piedmontese cuisine, such as game and braised meats. After all, this is a wine with a great structure. Without protest!

A garnet red that is not at all compact in the glass, Michele Chiarlo's Barolo Palás is a true triumph in terms of aroma. It opens with evident notes of wild berries, accompanied by black fruits, such as blackberries and raspberries, and hints of underbrush that remind one of mushrooms, which, with a bit of suggestion, can also make one think of truffles. If you are patient enough to wait for the oxygen to do its work, you will then find very pleasant notes of tobacco and roasting, touches of dark chocolate and ethereal nuances. The mouthfeel of the tannin is velvety and pleasantly harmonious. Palás represents the label of tradition for Michele Chiarlo, produced with grapes from vineyards located in various plots, with different characteristics. This is followed by a long period of aging in large barrels that make it particularly balanced and long-lived.
