Following the traditional Amarone production method, the grapes are dried in Riondo’s temperature-controlled warehouse until the January following the harvest. The wine is aged in oak for 24 months. Bold fruit aromas of Morello cherry and plump blackberry followed by light spicy notes of cinnamon and clove. The wine displays soft tannins with an alluring note of sweet spices on the finish
Valpolicella Ripasso Castelforte is a Venetian red wine made from Corvina, Corvinone and Rondinella grapes that undergoes a second fermentation with the addition of exhausted Amarone marc: it releases a rich and full-bodied sensory profile, full of fruity hints of black cherry and cherries, oriental spices , hints of vanilla and light balsamic tips, while the sip is enveloping and of great persistence.
Produced from Corvina, Rondinella and Corvinone grapes, with small amounts of other local grape varieties. Vinification takes place in Ganimede fermenters, which uses the carbon dioxide gas that is generated during fermentation, where the grape skins and wine are continuously mixed in order to extract colour and tannins. The wine is aged partly in stainless-steel tanks, and partly in large oak casks for twelve months. An elegant Valpolicella with excellent body that shows intense notes of blueberry, cherry, liquorice, balsamic and eucalyptus notes. It is medium-bodies with soft, velvety tannins and a pleasant, medium-long finish.
The authentic Chianti Classico. Only native vines, without Cabernet and Merlot, to maintain the typical formula of the most famous of Italian wines, without chasing the fashion that, using even South wines, darkens the beautiful ruby red of Sangioveto.

Cava brut from DO Cava (Spain) produced by the winery Conde de Caralt with Trepat grapes.
Bluefish, seafood, whitefish and soft cheese would be the most suitable food pairing.
Youthful clear in the glass with glorious fruit-charming aroma of jasmine, apple, pear, melon, white peach and fresh almonds. In the mouth nice fresh with lively bubbles and fine, delicate fruit notes.
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.

The first few months of the year were characterised by high rainfall. Flowering went well, during an opportune, clement window of opportunity, confirming our initial hopes spurred by bud break in April. Fortunately, we avoided the hailstorms in May, which hit some of the vineyards on the right bank. Mild spring temperatures, coupled with high levels of humidity, placed us under serious pressure. The impending threat of mildew caused us to increase our vigilance in the vines. The return of very sunny weather gave hope to our teams, who had not relinquished their efforts to protect the vines, and adhering to environmentally- conscious protocols.
Hot and sunny, summer boosted ripening in the grapes. Significant water reserves accumulated at the start of the year protected the vines from excessive stress. We approached the relatively early harvests in a total state of calm, picking by hand and tailoring our schedules to individual rows. The grapes were exceptional in terms of ripeness and quality. We rolled out densimetric sorting across the vineyard, a practice introduced in 2016. This is followed by a final sort by hand to eliminate the last remaining MOG.

Château Le Boscq features among the great classics of the Saint-Estèphe appellation. The first wine, Chateau le Boscq Cru Bourgeois, is a St-Estephe wine bursting with character, which elegantly combines the power of Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot, with the Merlot’s finesse, which is unusual for the appellation. Delicate and well-balanced, it has great ageing potential.
Incredibly deep, and still almost black in appearance. The intense and complex bouquet imparts lovely fruit intensity to notes of cedar, spice and precious wood. The wonderfully supple palate gradually gains in intensity. Densely-packed, silky and very fine-grained tannic structure underpins generous richness on the palate, and is coated with spice and ripe fruit flavours. Smooth and concentrated, the wine culminates in a notably long, lingering finish, characterised by freshness and spice.
