Ai Galli - Lison Classico 2024
di Lorenzo Colombo Un’espressione diversa del vitigno Tocai la possiamo trovare in questa piccola Docg situata a cavallo tra Veneto e Friuli-Venezia Giulia. Color paglierino con riflessi verdolini. Accenni affumicati ed erbe aromatiche essiccate al naso. Buona struttura, accenni nocciolati, succoso, buona la persistenza.

Cave de Prestige: Burgundy’s Annual Wine Selection
Did you know that Burgundy has an official annual selection of wines? It is called the Cave de Prestige, a long standing programme organised by the Bourgogne Wine Board (BIVB).

Valpolicella: le 40 vendemmie di Marinella Camerani
Marinella Camerani, la giovane ribelle della Valpolicella celebra le sue prime 40 vendemmie. Questa è la notizia, ma liquidare Marinella Camerani con l’aggettivo di “giovane ribelle” è una semplificazione del tutto ingenerosa per lei che ha condotto una vita coerente nel rispetto dei suoi ideali. Non che non sia stata giovane, anche se, permettete, lo […]

Grover Zampa Signet Tasting: How Different Wine Ageing Vessels Shape Wine Character
By Mukul Manku As wine enthusiasts, most of us are familiar with how grape varieties, climate and oak barrels shape the character of a wine. We may have had fewer opportunities however, to witness how the very same wine develops when matured in different ageing vessels. That is precisely what made Grover Zampa Vineyards recent Continue reading "Grover Zampa Signet Tasting: How Different Wine Ageing Vessels Shape Wine Character"

That remains to be seen, but via the current Tasting Report and a week spent in the region in June, a vast number of changes are happening to keep the ship afloat as well as build a bridge to better times.

23 anni di vino in sei calici: la nostra verticale di Cavariola
di Lorenzo Colombo Dovevamo concludere un lungo periodo della nostra vita nel mondo del vino ringraziando coloro che ci avevano supportato in quell’avventura durata ben 23 anni: cosa c'era di meglio se non gratificarli con una verticale di vecchie annate? Cercando nella nostra cantina un vino che si prestasse a quest’occasione, e del quale avessimo un discreto numero d’annate, abbiamo optato per il Cavariola , che abbiamo sempre considerato uno dei più grandi vini rossi dell’Oltrepò Pavese . Prodotto da Paolo Verdi dell’azienda Bruno Verdi — situata a Canneto Pavese, nella frazione di Vergomberra (che dà il nome a un ottimo Metodo Classico) — il Cavariola, il cui nome corretto è Oltrepò Pavese Rosso Riserva Cavariola, è ottenuto con il classico uvaggio oltrepadano. La Croatina costituisce il vitigno principale con poco più del 50%, il Barbera occupa circa un quarto della composizione, mentre Ughetta e Uva Rara si dividono il resto più o meno in parti uguali.
