The grape blend is 77% Cabernet Sauvignon and 23% Kékfrankos (Blaufränkisch), two grapes grown in the Mátra region from organically certified vineyards. The two varieties are subjected to very gentle pressing and vinified in closed containers, with very gentle and soft extraction of the juice with the skins. Something which keeps the tannins at very low...
Another elaborate winemaking by the young producer that follows her totally non-intrusive philosophy and the absence of the use of advanced equipment in the production of her wines. 50% of the grapes are very lightly crushed followed by a short and gentle maceration for 4-5 days with the stems. Fermentation continues in plastic and fiberglass. The...
One of the most authentic expressions of the variety that seems to respond extremely well to the terroir of Amyndeon, developing all its desirable characteristics. The wine is produced from organic vineyards and at the winery fermentation is spontaneous with the minimal intervention philosophy of Lawrence Hartmann. It is matured like the Xinomavro for 16...
A Xinomavro texture, giving the sensation of velvet in the mouth but at the same time its energy and freshness give you goose bumps. Its complexity is a layered result of an excellent year, each sip makes you notice something new. Like a great book, each new reading gives you another perspective that you didn't perceive in your previous encounter with it....
Isole e Olena Chianti Classico is yet another example of the finesse and delicacy of the wines of Paolo de Marchi. Fresh and juicy with the classic notes of red cherry, mint and licorice, wrapped around the typical fine tannins of Sangiovese and all this on top of a palate that is overwhelming you with the freshness of its acidity. Elements of smoke and a...
La Santa de Ursula shares wild botanical hints, flowers and beautiful red fruits. A minerality reminiscent of smoke and sulphur is typical of Tenerife wines and this wine does not fall short of that. Wild, special, unique and typical of the region, La Santa de Ursula is vinified differently depending on the vineyard, and part of it is vinified with...
Around the hamlet of Taganana that lends its name to this "jewel" of the Envinate one will find some of the most isolated, authentic and ancient vineyards of Tenerife. Here, in the steep inhospitable topography of the region, tourism has not caught up with the same pace and one will be able to find ancient small autochthonous vineyards in steep places...
Organic and biodynamic farming (in transition from 2021 acquired) with the vineyard being ploughed by horse and the vines not being trimmed at all in the summer but the tops being circled. Vinification with an infusion technique instead of intense maceration for about 20 days and maturation for 4 months in stainless steel tanks (85%), amphorae (10%) and...
Silky, with aromas of dried rose and violet, layered aromatic complexity with extra spice, red fruit and traces of leather. The year gave the wine a fine balance of alcohol and acidity with mild - for the variety - tannins. Combined with plenty of fruit on the palate, they help it to be enjoyable and expressive without requiring long cellar ageing. Its...
The Baudrys’ philosophy is based on minimal intervention, allowing the terroir to fully express itself and highlight the distinct character of each vineyard. At Les Grézeaux, fermentation lasts 15–20 days in concrete tanks with wild yeasts, while aging takes place for about 12 months in old barrels aged 3–5 years, followed by bottling without filtration....
Lightness and freshness of character, like biting the crispiest cherry that ever was. Right along aromas of lavender with the freshness of fennel and freshly ground green pepper. It goes for pleasure and finesse rather than complexity and muscle. But this is there adding of this specific terroir on the variety. And the Baudrys as obedient servants try to...
