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.
A Barolo of high standing, both austere and complex. Deep red garnet in color. Delicately spiced bouquet (notes of eucalyptus, licorice and menthol), mature fruit (liqueur soaked cherries, blackberries and prunes) and hints of violets and medicinal herbs. Powerful on the palate, lightly acidic and fresh. Lasting finish.
Ageing: one year in barriques from Allier and one year in oak casks still from Allier (2000 lt). After a soft clarification, the wine is bottled for a further period of maturation in
the bottle, the lenght depends from the characteristics of the vintages, but never less than 12 months.
Shelf-life: The wine will reach its peak 6-8 years after the harvest, but its life can vary considerably depending on the vintage
Notice: the label can be other or as shown in the pictures
Grapes: Merlot Raboso
Fermentation: two months with charmat method
Taste: fresh and fruity, great for a long aperitif
Serving suggestions: enjoy “solo” or with cocktails, try with lemon spritz
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.

The grapes used in the production of this wine come from vineyards located on hills with good slope, characterized by predominantly calcareous clay soil, interspersed with compact layers of sandstone and covered with fine quartz sand and fine silt. The grapes can bring an abundance of trace elements and ensuring a broad and immediate expression of the bouquet.
The vines are grown with Guyot on hills with good slope.
The grapes, freshly picked, arrives in the cellar integrates and is rapidly pressed and gently destalked to extract from the peel and the outer area of the grape only the most noble and aromatic fractions. Fermentation, at a controlled temperature, takes place in thermo-conditioned tanks. Maceration of the skins lasts 8 days, during which the fermenting juice is regularly recycled from the bottom to the top of the tank in order to integrate the tannins softly and extract the color slowly. This procedure is finished throughout all the sugar is converted into alcohol.
The wine is then racked into cement tanks, that are lined with fiberglass and insulated by cork where it remains for a long time the post-fermentation temperature 22° degrees C. (72° F.). In these cement tanks, Malolactic fermentation begins spontaneously and is completed within 2 months. The wine is aged for 2 years, a part in Slavonian oak barrels and the other part in French oak barrels (30 and 120 hectoliters / 789 and 3.156 U.S. gallons). The fining carries on in bottle, for 12 months, before going into the market. The Barolo Tradizione reaches its maturity after 4 years from the harvest and matures further between 4 and 20 years.
The color is garnet red with ruby hues. The aroma is intense and persistent with clean scents of spices, cinnamon, absinthe, tobacco and rose bush. The taste is full and elegant and with soft tannins. The spicy and the boisè blend perfectly.

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.

Product Details
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.
