APPELLATION
Chianti Classico DOCG
The predecessor of Amarone, Recioto is the appellation’s signature dessert wine produced using a similar method. Flavors of raisined fruit, particularly cherries, are highly concentrated. Vanilla notes add structure to this powerful, rich red. The tannins are ripe and sweet rounding out the finish. Dried clusters are vinified in stainless steel and aged 18 months in French oak barrels. Unlike its predecessor, Recioto’s fermentation is halted, thus allowing it to retain a higher concentration of residual sugar.

This wine is showing exceptionally well in this classic vintage. The 2016 Guidalberto (Cabernet Sauvignon and a smaller percentage of Merlot) opens to a full and generous bouquet and a beautifully rich and velvety appearance. This edition of Tenuta San Guido’s mid-level wine offers a bigger aromatic profile, more texture and more volume as well. Dark cherry and blackberry segue to spice, tar, leather and sweet fruit at the end. The mouthfeel is elegantly shaped, silky and nuanced. This may well be the best vintage of Guidalberto I have yet to taste—and you can get this wine at a great price too.
This is extremely perfumed with aromas of lavender, cinnamon, blackberries, bark and blackcurrants. Full-bodied, extremely refined and polished. Gorgeous fruit and balance. Best ever bottling of this pretty wine from the producers of Sassicaia?
Method of Production: Gentle pressing with 18°C fermentation and fining on leese at 8°C for three months.
Sparkling rose sweet wine from Piemonte, Italy.
Winery: Marchesi di Barolo
Grapes: Malvasia 100
Region: Malvasia di Castelnuovo don Bosco
A sparkling rose wine made exclusively from carefully picked Malvasia di Schierano grapes.
The perlage is fine and persistent. The colour is pale pink, almost cherry. The aromatic pallet is intense and musky reminiscent of clear scents of wild berries, blueberries and wild strawberries.
The flavour is sweet, slightly sparkling and it ignites the olfactory sensations.
Perlage is fine and abundant, while the color is straw-yellow with golden reflections. The aroma is intense, rich in aromatic scents – in particular, it reminds to the orange blossom, peach and apricot – in perfect balance with the low alcohol percentage and the acidity, never very high, which gives the product a pleasant freshness.
Sweet and aromatic wine well combined with desserts at the end of a meal and the classic nougat with hazelnuts. An ideal companion in moments of celebration and a nice refreshing drink at any time of the day, particularly after sports efforts.
The growing areas for Asti (Piedmont) are difficult areas in which to grow vines. High on the hillsides the vineyards are small, steep and labour intensive. But their unique climate is perfect for the aromatic freshness we need. Machines can not easily operate here and harvesting is nearly always by hand.
In 1895, Federico Martinotti, invented a new method to create Spumante. By creating the secondary fermentation in a closed and sealed vat he found a way not only to make wines of consistently high quality, but also a way to do it more quickly in order to preserve the natural freshness of the grapes. The process is now: grapes to fermentation, secondary fermentation to bottle.

Deep ruby red colour rich in garnet notes. On the nose aromas of cherries, black cherries, plums, liquorice, and leather, to which are added the hints of pepper and cinnamon and, finally, undergrowth. But it is on the palate that the wine shows its extreme elegance and harmony of flavours: at the same time, it reveals a harmonious and velvety yet robust and complex character, dry and full-bodied, generous, and austere.
A bottle of Pellegrino’s Marsala Fine. Made from a selection of Sicilian native grapes, the term ‘fine’ indicates minimum ageing, usually a year or less. This is traditionally served as an aperitif between the starter and main courses of a meal.
The Itinera Prima Classe Primitivo Salento IGT by Mondo del Vino is presented in the glass in a black with red reflections and seduces with the aromas of black cherries, cardamom and a touch of leather.
This pure Primitivo, which was stored in barriques for 8-10 months, shows an explosive fullness on the palate with gentle tannins.
Sangiovese wine grapes with some Merlot and Colorina added to the mix. The 2017 Chianti came from a hot vintage with drought conditions. Higher elevation vineyards did enjoy some cooling breezes overnight giving some relief to the grapes and balance to the wine. This example is intense with dark fruit, clove, anise, dark cherry, grilled wild herbs and smoky flavours on the palate with balanced acidity to match. Pour with a meat-lover’s pizza.
