Avignonesi's Vino Nobile di Montepulciano Riserva Grandi Annate is made from Sangiovese grapes, and is the result of the spontaneous and separate vinification of 4 different vineyards, using indigenous yeasts and an 18-month period in French oak barrels, followed by a long period of refinement in the bottle, different for each vintage. It has a beautiful dark ruby colour, with dark reflections and a slightly orange hue. Very powerful nose, balsamic, truffle, undergrowth, wet earth, leather, dried flowers and cinchona. The taste is straight and powerful, fruity and spicy, with a long persistence. A truly mouth-watering bottle
The Brunello di Montalcino Riserva Gli Angeli La Gerla 2007 comes from 25 year old vines located at 300 metres above sea level and trained on the spurred cordon system. Production is limited to very few bunches per vine (50 Qli/ha), the grapes are harvested by hand and the bunches are selected. Vinification takes place with soft pressing of the bunches, temperature control during fermentation (30°C), micro-oxygenation and maceration (15) days, 2 racking per year. It has a beautiful bright garnet red colour. On the nose, tertiary hints of wet earth, mushrooms and graphite are the intense prelude to the sweet succession of currants, jam and dried petals. The taste is balanced and elegant, savoury, warm, with a persistent finish in which very pleasant trails of mint and liquorice alterna
The Tal Luc Passito wine from Lis Neris comes from vineyards on the estate that are over 25 years old.
The plots are situated on a gravelly plateau of calcareous matrix, characterised by poor and very draining soils, which naturally limit the yields. At the end of the harvesting operations, the most beautiful, healthy and ripe bunches of grapes are left to dry for a period of 120/130 days in an environment with controlled temperature and humidity, so as to favour the slow dehydration and concentration of sugars and aromas.
The grapes are pressed very softly and the dense, rich must is fermented in French oak barriques.
The wine matures, again in barriques, and completes its ageing with a long period in bottles before release.
Barolo Sottocastello di Novello Ca' Viola is made from Nebbiolo grapes grown on 2.3 hectares in Novello, in the Sottocastello cru. Here the vines grow at an altitude of 470 metres on calcareous and clayey soil of a sandy matrix and are fed with natural manure and green manure, without synthetic chemical products. In the cellar, spontaneous fermentation takes place for 35 days and the wine is aged in large casks for 36 months. It is an important wine, elegant and austere, with a luminous garnet colour and deep aromas of underbrush and spices. On the palate it is energetic and slender, structured and decisive, with thick and persistent tannins and final aromatic suggestions of tobacco and chocolate. A Barolo with great personality, capable of resting in the cellar for many many years.
Avignonesi's Grifi combines the king of Tuscan grape varieties, Sangiovese, with the international Cabernet Sauvignon, to create an intriguing wine with a fine taste-olfactory balance.
Avignonesi branded and left to mature for 18 months in wood. Suitable for lengthy ageing but also ready to enjoy now, it is a wine to be chosen without hesitation for the best weekend dinners.
It dresses the glass in a beautiful ruby red. The nose revolves around a fine core of ripe red fruit, cherry, morello cherry and plum, then enhanced by hints of nutmeg, bitter cocoa, tobacco and eucalyptus. The complexity of the nose is echoed on the palate, where tannins, freshness, body and warmth come together in a fine balance. Good length.
Il Poggione's Brunello di Montalcino Riserva Vigna Paganelli is made from 100% Sangiovese grapes. Il Poggione cultivates the grapes that give life to this label within the I Paganelli vineyard, planted in 1964.
Once the grapes have been selected during the harvesting phase, they are vinified in steel, with submerged caps for 20 days, fermenting in steel thanks to the presence of indigenous yeasts, at a controlled temperature, also carrying out malolactic fermentation. The wine is then aged for 48 months in 30 and 50 hectolitre French oak barrels and then, after bottling, for a long period directly in glass.
Wine obtained from vineyards about 30 years old with a planting density of 10,000 vines per hectare at an altitude of 400/600 metres above sea level. The yield per hectare is 30 hectolitres.
The land is not subjected to any kind of fertilisation, but is only treated with clay, propolis and grapefruit seed extract. The grapes are harvested in 40 separate parts.
Alcoholic fermentation takes place in 40hl steel tanks. Ageing takes place for 8 months in second, third and fourth passage French oak barriques and 10 months in cement.
The result is a complete, mouth-watering and authentic wine with an impressive drinking capacity. It is a pleasure to follow the interweaving of its notes and be seduced by its precise tannins, perhaps accompanying it with red meats.
