Leave the Amarone "La Stropa" in your cellar for a more special moment and enjoy Monte Dall' Ora's Ripasso "Sausto" when you want to get small doses of the richness and power of an Amarone. Cherries infused with alcohol, plum and raisins along with notes of mint and floral notes. Ripe yet fresh on the palate with very good tensions and robust, elegant...
This particular vineyard is located a few kilometres away from the estate surrounding the winery, towards Lake Garda and the vineyards are 15 to 40 years old on limestone soils. The label is painted by the daughter of Carlo and Alessandra. Fermentation is spontaneous, as in all the winery's wines, and takes place in a combination of stainless steel tanks...
La Fortune” ferments in oak vats, while 2/3 of the grapes are kept whole and unbroken. Contact with the grape skins lasts 12-14 days to avoid astringency and reinforce the fruit. The wine ages for 10-12 months in 1st to 3rd-use barrels. On the palate, there are fruit aromas such as fresh strawberries and herbaceous notes on the nose. Cru La Fortune is a...
The grapes are organically grown (without certification) and come mainly from the mountainous area of Thapsani in the centre of the island. The "Nees Rizes" are not so new since they come from a combination of vineyards, the oldest of which in cups and traditional "aplotaria" are 150 years old. The vinification is entirely non-intrusive, with spontaneous...
Another winemaking process crafted with the finesse and elegance imparted by whole-cluster fermentation, which enhances the wine’s signature spicy fruit and floral character. The wine undergoes a total maceration of 40 days and is pressed using an old vertical press, just as it was traditionally done in the past. Malolactic fermentation takes place...
Probably the closest you'll get to an archetypal Chianti Classico, but one that is not just for immediate consumption, but worth waiting a few years for. If simple Chianti Classico or Meraviglie epitomize the casual and straightforward style of wine, here we have a more mature and aged version that manages to balance both pleasure and seriousness. If you...
The grapes come from a single vineyard at a very high altitude of 650 meters south of the Archanes area. The vineyard is 17 years old and dry with a very low yield per hectare and the soil is stony with a slight slope. The two varieties were vinified separately with long macerations while only the prorogos was used and to emphasize the fruity...
This wine draws on the tradition of Piemonte but equally of Burgundy. On the sandy soils of Lessona, Nebbiolo acquires a bouquet of aromas like rose, wild cherry and wild grapefruit with notes of tobacco, dried herbs and lively mineral dimension. On the palate its tannins are firm but velvety; the acidity is delicious same as the earthy dimension of the...

Winemaking of La Digoine follows the same philosophy as La Fortune with about 2/3 use of whole bunches in the oak winemakers. The maceration time is no more than two weeks and the wine will be aged in barrels aged 2 to 5 years. The aromas are delicate and elegant, the fruit, although a little shy at first, is distinguished by its depth and power. The...
Traditional Burgundian cellar approach, with partial fermentation of whole bunches in oak fermenters for 14 days. This is followed by maturation in barrels from 1 to 5 years old, for a total of 12 months. Concentrated on the nose, which offers complex notes of red cherries, plum and game, while the palate is powerful and quite full-bodied but with...
